Last year, Prior Design announced the PD-GT850 tuning kit for the Audi R8->ke1440 sports car for the first time. We were very impressed by it and its potential to transform a "simple" R8 into a brutal racing-style car. Now the tuner revisited the kit and came up with a new limited-edition version painted in "Pearl matte white".

This time the kit was designed in cooperation with the guys over Famous Parts which took care of the proper installation of all parts of the body kit and did the rest of the conversion.

Thanks to the new wide-body kit, the PD GT850 is now 6 cm (2.36 inches) broader on the front section and 8 cm (3.14 inches) at the rear one. Combine all this wideness with the new limited serial color "Pearl matte white" and you will get the hell of a sports car.

Audi R8 PD-GT850 White Phoenix by Prior Design in Detail

The wide-body kit includes a new front apron and an integrated carbon spoiler, new front mudguards and wide, carbon-fiber alternative side covers. On the rear, it adds a huge spoiler and a new rear apron with an integrated carbon diffuser and lateral air inlets.

The car sits on a set of 20-inch, three-part Rotiform forged-alloy wheels wrapped in Continental Sport tires sized 255/30R20 up front and 345/25R20 at the rear. The new wheels are also painted in white and combine with a specially adapted damper system "Magnetic Ride" to help keep the R8 glued to the track.

Famous Parts also installed a new Capristo flap sports exhaust system made of stainless steel and featuring remote control and four-fold sound selection. The tuner is also offering a complex software optimization.
