The manual V8 runs around 50k now. Nothing looks wise comes even close. Timeless design and the original LED headlight car that all your favorites copied.
Bmw had halos before Audi ever has leds but it wasn’t white or led it was so ugly yellow but yea if only bmw put white halos back in 1999 lol they would of beat Audi for led invention
@@bman1668 but they didn't, so that barely matters lol. Audi has a massive list of patients and firsts for the automotive industry. A few including the ASF (Audi Space Frame) in 1993, first 100% galvanized zinc coated bodies, stratified fuel injection, original roll-over testing, one of the original publicly sold AWD systems, WR/VR engine designs (V layout with a single head) and currently working on synthetic fuel. They work hard to push the envelope. Its one of the reasons I've always liked them. Most cool features luxury brands have, are often copied or imitated from something Audi came up with.
Also this video shows the friendship these two have it’s like James: *buys new car* this is my wife’s baby Also James: *throws David keys* Your driving
This is the car that got me into cars frfr, always into tuners but i had NO idea about high end vehicles until i seen this in iron man and then i seen the car in person and that was it
Man Jasmine is that one car that REALLY stuck with me, hell its the main reason I’m in love with the 4G63 engine (and want to put it into a Renault Megane if I can get one in America) so to see it gone sucks and the evo Brianna had was absolutely stellar but this car TRULY was worth the sacrifice and awesome job James and Brianna . Great review as always David
@@konstantinosprouskas8106 I’ve always loved the sound of the 4G63 and prefer it over the F4RT (yes the actual engine code for the Megane is Fart) and honestly been trying for a few years to learn how I’d have to manage it still working it out
@@aaronmachado13 the f4rt is an amazing engine used in a lot of set ups. I owned a megane rs 270 and a clio 187 I don't believe there is a way for a 4g63 to be put in to a megane
@@konstantinosprouskas8106 I’ve tried working out the dimensions of it (the one I’m looking at is the 250 rather than the 265 or later generations) and honestly I respect the stock engine for what it is but I really just prefer the 4G63 platform especially with my connections, it’d be easier to work with rather than the F4RT because here in the states we never got it and it isn’t a desirable JDM car like the skyline, just parts for the car would end up killin me if I tried building that motor. So far only way I’ve figured it’d be able to work is getting a complete donor eagle talon since it uses a similar setup (FWD since most 4G63’s are used in AWD cars) still a work in progress just figuring out how to get it into the country so the engine swap would be years down the road
I don’t think so! But it is possible sometime last year youtube went through that viper phase 😒 and with the viper being my dream super car i was annoyed
I was watching when he got smurf. Boost by mph looked allot slower then the boost by gear. (the evo) but more rowdy is more sketchy, which is more fun. That r8 is sick. Congrats
Thanks for the pin David, I hope I can come help you with your cars in the future. I have an s14 and your jz car deserves an ocd mechanic/body tech to give it some love. I feel like you get cheated a bit because you're not a mechanic. There's no reason you should have to put more then one jz in that car. You don't even run crazy HP.
This is my dream car setup.a supercharged manual v10 r8 it's the best daly driver supercar with probably the best trunk space and you rarely ever hear about them but with just a tune you can get 600hp. Everyone buying up all the manual gallardos. And selling to them for rediculouse process. I just hope they keep ignoring the r8 side of the market until I can afford one
Gated V10 R8's are the last of its breed! I own one and it's absolutely sublime! Even without forced induction. The values of these have skyrocketed in the last year. Sucks for anyone who didn't pick one up before the prices went ape shit! Future classic!
I just picked up an 08 gated v8 and it's a great time. Gated v10s were just too much out of my price range. Once I convert it to rwd and add a titanium straight piped exhaust it will be alot more fun.
When he said “she worked so hard” I thought he was gonna say she saved up for years but then he said she works so hard surfing the net for it and taking a flight to cali
Now I'm not saying I wouldn't get this exact supercharged R8 if I could do it financially later in life, but I strive to be the masochist daily driving a stripped down sports car until I am too old to drive.
@@joeleonard9965 I felt the same way..I'm not quite a polished up exotic guy but I am always gonna drive a 6 sp manual car..Vettes and GT350 are my thing these days..Check my channel out...🏁👍

This car is sick. I love my boosted 4 cylinders but once you’ve driven a car with more torque and bigger displacement you realize why they have such a great following.
This video to me with these super high horsepower car shifts show me that this dude ain’t a bad driver at all. In a straight line anyway but still impressive timing
I have a supercharged SQ5 and omg the blower whine on that R8 makes me need an open intake ASAP 😍 gorgeous car and I love when successful people seem genuinely nice. 🍻
You have to do the oil change your self to save money! Kinda..... I did my oil change my self last Saturday but it was still 165 bucks and 2 hours of my time.
I want an r8 hella bad. For the price it's so worth it. I mean I'd rather have a gallardo but I would take an r8 in a heartbeat. They are super bad ass and low key for sure.
Ive watched you since you first began. Im so privileged to have grown with you. Congrats on your success. So im a car nut... Can i gave a job? Lol seriously.
2:09 I used to have a 1989 front drive Toyota Corolla SR5 and it used to make clicky noises after I took the shift boot off lol but it was pretty darn slow unlike this r8 car.
99% of R8 builds go twin turbo. This is my first time ever seeing one supercharged. I was also an Audi dealer lol, so that speaks for something in relation to how many I'd come across.
Hey David I agree with you about the 10 and 2 thing and it's stupid for driving schools to be teaching it to everyone my hands are always at 9 and 3 keep it up man
That's his wife's car? She wanted a supercharged mid-engine 6-spd? Dude better hold on to her like grim-death. Lucky man.
Thank you! Lol

FINALLY SOMEBODY CAN DRIVE A GATED PROPERLY. FINALLY A TRUE CAR GUY DRIVES ONE.
Holy shit I just made the same comment
I would do terrible, unimaginable things for a gated manual r8.
I just picked up an 08 manual few weeks ago. They are a blast to drive. Next step is rwd conversion and titanium straight piped exhaust
Shit id be happy with a V8 r8 6spd. Racing headers.

it almost has the exact blower sound from the hellcat, sounds insanely good
Where I live, any car faster than a base model 2002 honda civic gets hella attention

Means a lot Aaron!!!!! Appreciate the understanding! we miss the evos sometimes lol
That downshift at 6:35 👌 eargasmic
One of the best parts of the R8 is it's subtly and class, so I love that he didn't go over the top with garish wings and a widebody and whatnot.
Kyle from 1320 is in the process of twin turboing his V10 R8. Everyone's gonna get an R8 now just to boost it lmao

@crossphaded bro you own an audi A4 LOL that IS NOT AN R8 Lmao putting a blow off valve on your A4 doesn't make it an R8

Once I convert it to rwd and add a titanium straight piped exhaust it will be alot more fun.
I’ve always loved that gen and the gated shifter. The V8 one with a supercharger is very nice as well.
paul walker's lookalike returns
When he said “she worked so hard” I thought he was gonna say she saved up for years but then he said she works so hard surfing the net for it and taking a flight to cali
*The fact that it’s his wife’s car is unreal. He’s lucky to be married to that woman.*
I look in my garage and wait for good weather 😊 then and only then is when I take out the germanic Super car to roads that have many potholes lol 😂
The r8 has been my dream car for so long. I’m glad to see it’s entirely how I want mine to be. Love it😍
The shifts on the r8 always have a satisfying clicking sound
1:24 and 3:41 Those smiles speak for themselves. If Honda ever remakes the S2K, I hope they give it a gated shifter😍
Hey, it's James! I know that guy, he used to own my 240sx. Lol!
Glad to see she is in good hands!!!
Congrats Brianna and this was such a cool video!!
What an awesome colab!!
Anyone else think this dude looks like Paul Walker?
Even his voice sounds a bit similar in the lower tones
Combined with Ed Bolian
Looks like a brother to Paul... He looks like a mixture between Paul and Cody but the Voice is very similar to Paul
Like his brother 💯👌🏿
They said this exact thing in a few videos back in the day like 6 years ago lol.
I smiled all the way through this video, always loved an R8 and I'd love to get a gen 1 gated V8 one day!

I grew up in Vermont and I remember this guy's wife used to have a sick evo 10 .
Youre right! We miss that car! haha
A supercharged r8 is probably better, the v10 sound alone has the evo beat.
The turbo sound on the intro is life

Would you be interested in a 08 ISF? I just picked one up and figured I'd ask tbh
David's content always consistent!
Imagine a turbo R8
So a turbo hurrican or turbo gallardo
Ive seen tons. I've yet to see a supercharged r8 til today. Difference in power delivery obv
Theres actually quite a few
Superchargers are cooler

This is my first time ever seeing one supercharged. I was also an Audi dealer lol, so that speaks for something in relation to how many I'd come across.
I did not know the V10s came with manuals
Remember jasmine from back in 2014
I love first gen R8's.
3:06 I wonder if thats the one that the older woman took for a few rips down the road, that was a cool video
its crazy looking at this car knowing ive done work to it and one of my heros drove it.. haha
I'm flashing back to irobot. Damn I love the sound of this Audi. David you are awesome.
Nice seeing you Sunday I didn’t wanna bother you at eurofed say you were frustrated
David, just for future reference, make sure to wipe your lense before filming, there's a smudge covering the speedometer @4:03 - 4:21 😌
6min 38sec in is so funny. Pushed right into the seats lmao
Jeez they are goals 😳
In the opening of the video the v10 emblem on the fender is not there but its there in all the other shots ?
Think it was just a sun glare..
I'm sure this has already been asked but what is that song?
you can have your 8 speed autos im taking this
Why is the speedometer blurred
That shifter clunk 🥰🥰

This car is like James Bond , refined and elegant , but it could easily kick your ass .
can you bang gears in an r8?
