  • Ur not a fan of driving fast ! Then get out of the car NOW !

  • if you´re not a pro tester.. then dont test pro cars..... obviously the R8 V10 is for people that likes to go to the track... if you dont... then dont buy it

  • the v8 still gives the middle finger too most cars since its still the same sexy ass body.

  • If it's not Tiff or Jason, or even Vicki, I'm not interested.

  • this guy is not qualified to do this...get Tiff on it

  • this guy is an idiot. plain and simple.

  • If i wanted the v10 i would rather pay extra for a gallardo

  • What a Car!! Love Audi

  • sexy.

  • He said he couldn't justify the extra $'s for the V10. This car should ONLY be purchased in the V10 configuration. The V8 version puts this nice car into too ordinary of a category with TONS of other cars to choose from. The V10 clearly is a step up. Go V10, or go home.

  • i'd take the V10 R8 please... somehow it just sounds more mature and grown up... and those wheels look even better than the one on the V8...

  • V8 > V10? So r8 > r8v10? bmw m5 > v8 f10? U must be an idiot.

  • It looks brill

  • Got Lamborghini engine but not the looks.

  • @omfggoogle i'd take the engine over the looks anyway...

  • my friend got one of these as a first car and i got a ford ranger as a first car :/ talk about jealous

  • what's that disease he's aquired under his lip?

  • i love the LED lights

  • WE WANT TIFF!!!!

  • 1. Get out of that car.

    2. Hand over keys to Tiff.

    3. Go home in your prius.

  • @thunderraceer you pay insurance and problem solved, you have money for r8 then you must have money for insurance

  • @thunderraceer

    Damn right.

  • Your a pussy queer, fucking step on it jesus christ, its alot different than the prius that you probably drive

  • @burton12341000 amen to that bro. what a dick head.

  • @burton12341000

    As if you'd be any better.

  • such a beautiful car!!

  • Spanish road

  • złom 

  • reviews are very misleading, they are not realistic for drivers like you and me, they spot the problems that we dont often care about but may even notice, there is no car that has no problems, i only watch reviews to see the car and dont really take what the reviewer has to say seriously.

  • this guy sucks a lot

  • i paused porn for this

  • Ahh its great to see a manual stick shift in supercars today. If only they would have that option on the Lamborghinis rather than try to phase it out.

  • He forgot to mention that the V10 comes with extras worth 10 grand that most buyers of the V10 purchase. In other words, you will only need to pay 10 grand more for the V10. Sounds like a good deal for me. But this guy was too much of an amateur to discover that!

  • @MrBazpoker "...V10 comes with extras worth 10 grand that most buyers of the V8* purchase"

  • @GreenOatmeal YES, correct. V8.

  • Lol, The orginial model would place the stearing on the left right ?

  • Mate, that car is not aimed at you, its aimed at people that don't do journalism for a living.

  • i like this host, but he shouldnt go near high performance super cars.... he's more suited for everyday cars

  • Fifth gear shouldnt have tested this car, because the r8 V10 goes up to Sixth gear, and fifth gear cant handle that

  • @wowzinger Yeah but look at the Lexus ISF review, Tiff said they should change the name of there show to 8th gear because of that car.

  • love those head lights!

  • My friends dad owns one of these, i got to go in a ride in it, it was awwesome:)

  • No, they don´t. I would kill my self if I owned the V8.

  • 100.000? That's outrageous.

    We pay twice that in australia. :'(

  • @YamiThunderous Stop complaining, we pay four times that in Denmark...

  • not a supercar

  • gayardo? its' pronouunced ga-iar-do

  • @tehfo0tsteps gallardo

  • Sorry, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. He's criticizing it for costing 20 grand more for unnecessary extra power. But he forgot to mention that in addition to the extra power you get a lot of standard features that were otherwise optional like the six grand B&O sound and Magnetic ride suspension.

  • @buttnut1080 totally, the guy is a dork. he also implies that the engine is italian when he says its from the gallardo, the V10 was an audi/german developed engine right from its inception. I have not been in a V8 R8 but I have been on a track with a race driver spanking the pants off a V10 R8 and its mental. V8 wont do....... well maybe....lol

  • The performance difference of the R8 and the Gallardo, I'd still prefer to get the Gallardo because of it's performance.

  • i sat in the convertible v10 its sooo nice.

  • what the hell is a Giiardo? Its Gallardo, u do pronouce the L's in the name, but ppl still dont

  • @marcz4100 - wrong

  • @123Mrjazz well, sorry about that :)

  • @marcz4100 he's right...you doesn't pronounce the L !!!!

  • @asmirone sry mate :)

  • @marcz4100 no problem ;D

  • BAHAHAHAHAHA LIKE AN OWL? WTF

  • Shitttttt i love Audi but for only 23 grand more a lambo sounds kinda juicy right now dont ya think ?

  • @GuysLoveTo Audi owns and makes Lamborghini. The engine that is in this car is a Lamborghini motor. I'd MUCH perfer this car over a Lamborghini but, it all comes down to preference I guess.

  • man, stop comparing the prices. You can afford the cheaper V8. LOL, about, the V10 doesn't wet your apatite.

  • Over cook the audis dinner? WTF I'm going back to top gear

  • so why does this guy deserve to drive an R8?

    shouldn't he be doing kia reviews or something....

  • cool !!

  • fuck this im watching top gear

  • i dont like the colour blue and silver on it .. it just doesnt look that good .

  • @Barr0wFtw i agree dude, it looks the best in black

  • classic..............

    

  • funny all

  • His quote "Audi's interiors are the best in the world". What a laugh!! The best interiors in the world. Mate, you have the eyesight of Stevie Wonder!!!!

  • @Troy36s most presenters would agree with him. new audi's do have one of the best interiors. sorry you wouldn't understand since you still drive a pre-Government Motor vehicle.

  • Lol @ top Gear wannabe shit.

  • @Jamzkangster they are their own show and its actually a good show.  they are nothing like topgear. they don't base anything on humor. watch a full episode before you call it shit.

  • QUE HERMOSO AUTO!!!

  • v10 sound the best. the fuck is this guy talkin bout

  • What a beautiful machine.

  • god that is one sexy looking car

  • @LouiseBarcelona like an owl is an English phrase "wise owl", which i'm guessing you Spaniards haven't heard of.

    He did say "the front is pure Audi...bla bla...wise....bla bla...like an owl". But still, wtf.

  • Oi you tards give him a break. I'd like to see you do better.....

  • 5th gear tested OY09 VKB.... Top Gear tested OY09 VKE.....How interesting

  • @westcountrychoppers common place to source the press cars from the same place. cheaper. they all get thrashed the hell out of and broken and worth very little.

  • like an owl durrrr stfu loser

  • fith gear is a nice change sometimes as topgear keep fucking around with cheap cars and doing next to no reviews on cars we care about but they are funny : )

  • I hate this guy. Fifth Gear should sack him.

  • Like the R8 V10, see my mod one:

    /watch?v=UfBW6jNfgrU

    /watch?v=xh5dzOp5tbE

    /watch?v=cgtT_S2sgNQ

  • i love fifth gear

  • Sounds like a 5 cylinder! Not all V10's do. The BMW M5 V10 sounds like that too. I love 5 pots!

  • what an asshole!

  • Someone sack this idiot

  • Gilardo ? 

  • I dont know why people say the V10 is the same as a Lamborghini....

    This is a FSI, Lambo isn't.

    Big difference.

  • The basic model is a 100K but you can get eassily to the same 140K by checking a couple of boxes on the option list.

  • Is it just me or is the R8 starting to look a little dated?

  • @mattyoz0 I was thinking exactly the same. SLS anyone?

  • @mattyoz0 It's just you mate, tell me, what do you drive? The R8 is timeless!

  • @dontheroof I drive a black 370z. It was just my opinion. I don't have $500000 For a car and if i did it would be a GT3rs and use the change to pay off my 370z and go around the world on a holiday.

  • shit review... this guy is not the person for review this car... some one call Tiff

  • @ivojiggy Tiff Needell is the BEST. And Jason Plato.. Both of them are super drivers...

  • @ivojiggy tiff and chris harris are the only people who should be allowed to review any sports car. ever.

  • @ivojiggy

    someone call Clarkson not Tiff

  • Clarkson that fat bitch? even my grandmother drives better. Tiff was a professional drive... 24H Le Mans with F1 Mclaren etc etc... Clarkson is nobody, is a tv entertainer.

  • @ivojiggy

    Tiff has no charisma

  • @ivojiggy ur right man, this one does't had the charismatic 2 review this car at all.. but at least giv him a chance, maybe he got better next time.. above all that i love this r8 n i want 2 buy it very2 badly when i got my driving license.. can't wait already..

  • this guy is abit like me.

  • this guy's a schmuck, AND a loser...

  • Jonny, you are very very hot:-)))

  • I can go on and on about endless Audi/Volkswagen oversights..Your other point on the GTR warranty also makes no sense..This issue(since in the past of early2008) was drivers abusing the launch control when it was clearly stated in the manual that launch control is only to be used for pulling out of snow/mud and not for constant race launches.Since then they already modified the system to accomodate any amount of power launches with no issues.Educate yourself before you speak.

  • I think the reviewer should go find another job! The sound of the engine from the V10 is like hearing the best orchestra in the world! It's absolutely great! The V10 is 1,1 sec faster from 0-60 than the V8. Moreover they do look the same but those rims and exhaust pipes are beautiful. Personally if I had the 80.000 to buy the V8 I'd spend an other 20.000 for the V10...

    Or even better as GTnumber1 said I'd buy the new GT-R which is faster that both and has 4 seats ;)

  • Hate the reviewer.

  • Why pay 100,000 pounds for this Audi when the 2011 MY11 530Hp Nissan GTR costs only 55,000 pounds and is quicker.

  • @GTnumber1 Because its still a Nissan, and you can drive teh R8 like its meant to be driven without voidong the warranty.

  • @CountVonBrink It isn't worth it at all to get into an automotive discussion with people like yourself because your comment proves you're clueless when it comes to cars.

  • @GTnumber1 Show me how I'm wrong? Didnt know you worked for Nissan and this hurt your feelings. Look at the Nissan warranty guidelines. I believe for 2010 they ammended it, more things you cant do because the black box is watching.

  • @CountVonBrink This isn't about "hurt feelings"or "working for nissan"..It's about loads of people like you that like to throw out comments that makes no sense.e.g.You comment on the Nissan brand as if it's not worthy of recognition or is low in quality..Did you know that since the Datsun era of the 60's to present that majority of their models outlasted and were trouble free compared to past audi models that were riddled with electrical probs, premature head gasket ruptures, oil leaks....

  • @GTnumber1 Ive ridden in a new GTR as well as the R32,33,34. And Ive sat in the R8V10. The GTR is fast, but does not compare to a lambo, ferrari, which ive driven, or an R8. You can strip a civic and put a turbo on it and it will run the 1/4 mile faster than a 911Turbo but its still a civic. MY comment was its still made of plastic with video game electronics and s bad warranty. What about the GTR glass trans breaking and the launch control issues? And the huge HP variances in cars that went

  • @CountVonBrink to magazines to test compared to what customers saw? And the launch control debacle and the first gen warranty being voided if you use a feature built in to the car? And the host of other super car feats you cant do in a "supercar"? The 2+2's, the original cars, are great. So is the R32,33,34, but they still Nissans, they arent the complete car that the R8, Ferrari, or Lambo, Porsche are.

  • @CountVonBrink <---- You've "ridden in all R32, 33, 34, R8V10, Lambo, Ferrari"(You and I know that's not true)...GTR "glass trans"..GTR "made of plastic"...LOL HAHAHA...Kid, How in the world do you expect anyone take you seriously? Stop wasting my time and taking up youtube comment space with your fairytale nonsense..Do not reply again.

  • @GTnumber1 Seems you read more into what I typed, Ill make it clear.Passenger in all the GTR's courtesy of RBMotoring when they were bringing them in. Yes. Sat in the R8V10 and V8 courtesy friends at Audi. I rented a black gallardo. Ive driven a Ford GT, Ferrari, Lotus, All sorts of Audi RS and S cars, 996 and 997 turbos, Tesla, Bentely, Rolls, not to mention several Mercedes and other classic cars. Should I take a picture in front of the Ferriar? with a sign, piss off GTno-1?

  • @CountVonBrink No..Actually you should post a picture of yourself with the words.."Shitbrained fairytale teller" written on your forehead..LOL.

  • @GTnumber1 So it's all about speed then is it? then go buy a bike.

  • about 0:30 - WTF?! lamborghini uses the engine from an audi S8, so this is their own engine...

  • @purpleGoAhead Are you joking? do you know anything about lamborghini???

  • I own 3 of these!!! ...in Gran Turismo 5...

  • @dbr712 me2 :D

  • Is this a wanna be TOP GEAR show?!

  • @mackjsm No, some of these people were on Top gear before it ended and changed to its new format, fifth gear is a real world car show, top gear used to be but now isn't.

  • @triumph1974 wow.. thanks bud..

  • 20 people did not produce testosterone. Screw them!

  • Top Gear > Fifth Gear

  • @wallsbleedingin i agree this seems scripted and less passion

  • does he really hear the sound from inside the car with such massive glass between him and the motor

  • Great presenter.

  • whats the name of the song starting @ 2:00???please

  • id also have the V8

  • to get in this car, i would keep hostages at a bank, and then negotiate with the police by telling them i'll drive myself to prison, if you get me an audi R8!...thank you very much!

  • "And The R8, Ticks That Box Extremely Well... In Fact It Double Ticks It.........Mabye Even Outlines It A Bit..."

    Lol

  • this guy should die. and hand over the keys to some one who likes cars.... agree?

  • that color is horrible. 

  • gillardo ? gAllardo !

  • I wud just have a Nissan G.T.R

  • who said germans cant make a car with passion?

  • Nice car, but I just hate how it uses a DETUNED version of the Gallardo's engine. I just don't think it compares to the Ferrari 458, SLS AMG and 911 Turbo S. Those are all cars that have their OWN engines, designed for them. They also have amazing gearboxes, where the Audi, again uses something pulled from the Lambo.

    So is this a good looking car, yes, fast, yes, but not comparable to those three competitors which I think rule the super car world.

  • @IvyLeagueCars yeah but you have to acknowledge that this is audis first real super car. ferrari doesnt have a consumer car for $30,000 while audi does. audi isnt a super car company, unlike porsche and ferrari are.

  • @dividad1 Yes, true. Keep in mind, I am not knocking the R8, I just don't think it is as accomplished as it's Porsche and Ferrari competitors. But yes you have a point, and you point is why I would prefer a Porsche and Ferrari, they are more focused sports manufacturers. But the R8 is still a good car.

  • @IvyLeagueCars A Ferrari 458 Italia is also nearly twice as expensive as the Audi (the Porsche is up there as well). And don't forget, Lamborghini's are essentially Audis with different badging, so you could just as correctly say the Gallardo takes it's engine from the R8. The reason its detuned is to keep costs down; you'll pay half as much to have your R8 serviced compared to your Gallardo. The R8 is a gentleman's daily driver, the Gallardo is a super sports car.

  • @IvyLeagueCars have you forgot Audi own Lamborghini

  • @110988DAVID I think you mean VW (which is the parent company). Lamborghini along with Audi and others is under the VAG (Volkswagon Automotive Group) umbrella. From my understanding.

  • Lamborghini's lack of success continued through the 1990s, until the company was sold in 1998 to AUDI AG, a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, a German automotive concern. Audi's ownership marked the beginning of a period of stability and increased productivity for Lamborghini, with sales increasing nearly tenfold over the course of the 2000s.

  • @jakebrijill15 THanks for the clarification. I stand corrected. I thought it was VW that purchased Lamborghini but I guess it was Audi which is under VW of course.

  • Sorry ,buuut whats with the differant coloured panel.

  • like an owl? the fuck?

  • @LouiseBarcelona1

    It's an inside Audi joke

  • TOP GEAR!!! FUCK THIS POSER SHIT

  • @xAznHomie101x Amen brother

  • I can do with the v8, don't think the additional V's are worth the cost. Tick the box, double tick it, circle it, underline it - put the pedal to the floor! LOVE IT!

  • They didn't put a lambo engine in it, this is a downtuned version of the RS6 V10 engine

  • @davyjones800 No , the RS6 engine has a 5L V10 from the old Gallardo , while the R8 V10 has the engine of the new Gallardo which is a 5.2L V10.

  • @FaisalbinMohammad Audi own Lamborghini, they built the R8's V10 engine themselves, as they did with the RS6 - That V10 was brand new when it was put in the RS6

  • R8 V8 = 420 hp, R8 V10 = 525 hp big difference !!!

  • why did they put a Lambo engine in it ?

  • This car is freaking amazing, it's also pretty. It's also has some sweet LED's...I would prefer this over any 100,000 pound car, well, probably :P

    and no offense to fifth gear, but top gear is better

  • Why are you driving at the neighbours seat? :D

  • spox

    

  • I'd like to see all you people who are criticizing the reviewer do a better job. You're all just jealous. Pretty pathetic. No, he's not Tiff, but he's not trying to be. Fifth Gear does a great job of reviewing the cars, where Top Gear is more a show about entertaining the public with a lot of jokes. You can't compare the two. They're very different shows about cars, that just happen to have similar names.

  • i like it its awesome

  • A Perfect Car.

  • i'm here to see the R8 not you faggot

  • What brand/kind of jacket is Jonny wearing?

  • I wish one day i could afford this car before times get to bad.
