SINGAPORE: Forget all the superstars lining up outside the track before and after the Singapore Grand Prix.

A much grander star, the new Audi R8 V10 5.2FSI, landed at our borders last night at 12am.

The supercar, priced around the range of $600,000, was unloaded at the ports and immediately delivered to Fullerton Hotel Singapore.

The Audi R8 V10 then "flew" up eight storeys before landing at the balcony of one of the suites at the Fullterton Hotel.

The entire operation took less than three hours. During the processs, we were furiously snapping away.

We show you glimpses of who (or at least what) we think is the real superstar.

The Audi R8 V10 will be launched in Singapore at the Changi Exhibition Centre next Tuesday.
