Stupid Homo in the R8,ruining all the Rodded fun with his overpriced Diva Beautywueen

[TheErrim]

[BUSTER246]

I've seen that blue and white #55 and I believe the orange car with the white door and black fender

[iMaajid]

All this ad. has done is make me appreciate the genius of Handel.

[sigmatau1980]

@iMaajid

Do you Know the name of the Music? Would you like to tell me Please?

[iMaajid]

@sigmatau1980 You should try reading the description of the video. It's "Eternal Source of Light Divine" (performed by Elin Manahan) by Handel.

[iMaajid]

@sigmatau1980 Eternal Source of Divine Light by Handel.

[sofyandi]

The unloved(s) vs the beauty, yep, that's a good title for this vid.

[spiderwebster]

ive seen the ratrods in real life at an auto show their awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[QasimAnwar135]

a very very good advert right there!

[38KDF]

Give me a rat rod anyday, u can keep the gay sports car.

[IanEduardoMeneses]

8 People are "Unloved"

[motovieweditor]

Paul Swift just told me that his team drove the cars. He drove the R8.

[DaBoogie049]

@bigbadbigblockbuick YOU are an idiot because you read 2 pages of comments only to find a negative and tell me your shit!

[thekkl]

All this ad has done is make me want a rat rod.

[mistahbtheoryz]

Love the r8.. My old mans got the s8 v10.. It's a beast

[shaddalee]

7 persons preffer the audi

[iCheckVtec]

[MySkyisClear]

R8: Simply One Of A Kind.

Screw the haters.

[ukfreeride]

FUCKING NAZIS!

[Necropiet]

@ukfreeride

wtf is wrong with you.

[ukfreeride]

@Necropiet

tool

[06tolsonl]

whats the music

[nickmellor34]

@06tolsonl It's called the Eternal source of light devine by Ellin Manahan Thomas and can be found on youtube .......Awesome piece isnt it ?

[applexy]

God I love Audi. Loved Audi since the 2008 a4 and this just reinforces it. GO AUDI!

[06tolsonl]

@applexy my m8 still thinks bmw are better than audi

[applexy]

@06tolsonl Good on him! :) Competitive markets are the key to a successful economy! No-one likes monopolies. So i'm glad we have a difference of opinion.

[DaBoogie049]

most of the rat rods shown here look like shit, i´ve seen better ones

[bigbadbigblockbuick]

@DaBoogie049 youre an idiot .. except perhaps 2 or 3 of ,the rest is awesome .. cnt wait till i finish my model a v8 ..

[AnarchyAmy]

They're not actually that heavily modified, saw a few from this advert at the weekends ! =]

[lucymax30]

The Audi is cool but I would rather have "Popcorns" roadster!!

[basico93]

joder ke pepino

[Infiltrator2K]

Brilliant advert! The music is from Elin Manahan Thomas' "Eternal Source of Light Divine" 

[maxpayne2424]

Are the people on here saying that they would have any of those old bangers over the R8 actually serious?.

[spetznazkye]

@maxpayne2424

I know that's what i was thinking

[84Bronco351]

@maxpayne2424 I am,screw audi

[PaulVanLacke]

@maxpayne2424 I take the Unloved...

[DevilsExperiment]

Does the car at 0:13s have Jim Phillip's artwork on the side (green monster with 3 eyes).

Sure looks like his artwork.

[hippymaff]

I saw the 'Unloved' at Billing the other week. It and all the other hotrods are amazing.

The Audi is trash.

[shqueeze]

Beautifully crafted advert. Although you just want to take the car away from those hideous hotrods, you feel comfortable in the fact that they can't touch it! Lovely advert, glad it's on during the world cup instead of world cup promos. Nice to watch durin half time :)

[sharegod]

What a beuatiful advert....all the noise ...then a few brief glimpses of the audi ..as the music cuts into handels aria....a work of art...perfect.

[travisd99]

Don't hate me, but I don't care about the commercial. All I care about is the R8. It's orgasmic.

[bleepbleep1234]

The most beautiful thing about this ad is the fact that these mastercraftsman have managed to accomplish something so inspiring at times of stress/worry and fear in the world. Amazing

[fernandogeorge]

Thats an awesome commercial, does anybody know the name of the song?

Thanks =)

[bleepbleep1234]

@fernandogeorge Seriously can you not read? So many people have already said the name of the song, and its also listed in the information below the video! How many times? Its right here in front of you.

[chiggerskido]

why do i like the part of the woman singing, love all the cars on the advert though

[oogie11]

If anyone wants to know the name of the song it is Elin Manahan-Thomas – Handel: – Eternal Source of Light Divine

[nickmellor34]

@oogie11 ......thank you .....ive been going mad trying to find out who sings that magnificent piece of music....what a voice ....

[oogie11]

This advert is great...what song is used, the one with the opera singer, it sounds so beautiful

[notrocksci]

I thought it was just me but the r8 is the least cool car in this ad, I d take most of those rods over the Audi!

[bleepbleep1234]

The woman has a voice of an angel, very beautiful song!

[joannet17]

@bleepbleep1234 She is SO nice too! I've sung with her before and photographed her too and she is such a sweetheart. And indeed the voice of an angel.

[bleepbleep1234]

@joannet17 Well you must have a very good voice too then! Have you got any sites or links I can visit to hear some songs, or any good rec's I could listen to?

Bless

[olskool29]

do you realize how much cooler those cars are than the audi???

[xxx69ajj69xxx]

@olskool29 i dew mr. pa-tiet-a-pass

[KillbillySpeedshop]

Funny, what idiots! Who in their real minds wants a R8 after this spot???!!!!

But the Hot Rod marked might x-plode now! Go out and build, or buy one now, while they still affordable! ;-)

[PAUCHODOG]

Those cool old cars make that Audi look like a door stop......

[AshMadeOurEyes]

22 Beauties, 1 Beast. Allright.

Though I must admit that that the R8 Spyder looks better than everything Audi has built in the past 20 years.

[TheGeo2hot]

The concept is that when you are told everything is bad and down blah blah blah there is some of us that create something beautiful and better than anyone can imagine, most people are ratrods and very few have an R8. Your choice....

[ThePetrolhead56]

lovin the 'unloved' model a pick up rod. very nice

[stumpydino]

well the concept is totally baffling but it sure looks nice :)

id like to see the R8 still operational in 70 years time like the rods.

[barnzey101]

@stumpydino the r8 wont be running in 70 years its electrics will fail and pack in way before and then sent to be recycled engine may end up in a hi tech street rod though, rat rods are the real beautys

[pregnantnproud]

i agree with you all. the r8 is awesome but gimme one of those ratrods please!

[RortyCorty]

I find that the white car (is that the Audi there advertising?) is a bit of a distraction from drooling over the cool rat-rods.

[EliScorch]

They look so much like model cars, but they aren't!

[drugsfx]

king chyldz dontplay spreading love its the brooklyn way reality reach open that book keep hip hop alive

[phosphosic]

Now that looks fun

[gibbosgibbo]

i prefer the original R8 tbh

[weelee010]

this is so fucking nice :)

[monaro085]

Rather have any one of the rods over the r8

[Mick0las]

isn't that the excel centre at Victoria docks in London?

[Bagelboy94]

@Mick0las thats what i was thinking, we were there on a school trip when this was being filmed, we could just see a fraction of a car skidding past by looking under a door :D

[Sabotaz80xx]

@Mick0las yes it is

[varrick1226]

Music in background?

[citizenross]

@varrick1226 "Eternal source of light divine" by Handel - sung by Elin Manahan-Thomas. Absolute class!

[varrick1226]

@citizenross

God bless you for taking the time to answer. Thanks much.

[rxvexe]

I wish the front looked a little more aggressive, it's just kind of rounded a smoothed out, don't get me wrong simple lines are beautiful, just add a tad more aggressive styling.

[JanFoE]

what is the rod in with the rust and white x on the door and what is the one with the airplane esque teeth?

[1hdsquad]

If I had to choose from the cars in the video the Audi would be the last...

[freqeist]

i`ll have a `rod thx

[fleetyboi]

just want to know the name of the "unloved" brown car that try's to go head on with the spyder. its awesome =']

[DanFrederiksen]

0-60mph in 4.4seconds

tesla roadster sport 0-60mph 3.7seconds

it can't even beat an electric car with a small motor dragging around 450kg of batteries..

it's a pathetic old overweight piece of shit..

vorsprung durch technik my ass. more like relucctantly trying to catch up.

wake up people. and the tesla roadster is only the beginning of what's possible with electric drive. it's only about 200 horses. 1000 ponies is easy in an electric. no roar, no shaking. just massive ufo power

[xraeptiem]

@DanFrederiksen First of all. Electric vehicles can get off the line and up to speed quicker then a Gas motor.

about an 800 pound difference. Gas motor is a big part.

Not hating on that roadster at any means. Why compare apples to oranges?

[DanFrederiksen]

@xraeptiem because the orange will replace the apples. oil is running out. the dropping ceiling with hit us on the head in about a year and it will keep dropping. and the world is very unprepared. 2012 to 2016 will be rough because humans don't think.

[KRamonxD]

@DanFrederiksen hmm, you are worng. :> 0-60 mph the Gasoline car go in 2 sec. tesla as you write 3.7, so never mind. It's not how much power car have but how it's sounds. Sory but electric car sounds bed.

[DanFrederiksen]

@KRamonxD the electric motorcycle killacycle does 0-60mph in less than 1 second. I'm sorry but you are ignorant.

[tooomahs]

@DanFrederiksen Why compare apples to oranges?

[djar111]

the r8 is awesome...but the add sucks!

[bunklefee]

@djar111 I think you got the words "awesome" and "sucks" mixed up. :S

[ferkulat]

kann zu, die affenschaukel

[lapirk]

r8 - the ugliest thing ever made.

[belbro62]

overpriced beautyqueen. i want the ratrod

[luvmydub]

It's the R8 gaylord edition err I mean Spider. Yawn. Can I have one of the 'rods please?

[juanimanti]

I rather prefer the non convertible than this one.. Anyway, the spot is incredible!

[AlexCluster]

WAT?!

[karaokequeen3]

Prefer the Beasts, IMO...

[apbriggs07]

Wow - what fantastic cars, I didn't even see the Audi when I watched the ad though! Love the Rat Rod pic up and the 32 coupe!

[PedalToTheMetalCom]

Beautiful, on my wish list.

[Hummer2SUT]

Looks Great, but I Prefer The Coupé...

[djdan137]

nice car

[CHICOHOEY]

I agree 100% ravenglass, can't beat the ratrod, especially at the lights!

[ravenglass666]

The R8 is without doubt a great car but next to these one off works of automotive art (especially the rat rod!) it just looks really gay and dull!!! You should be careful what you place beside your product in an ad. It doesn't always bring out the best in it!!
