    There's a new R8 in town, and while you can't have it with a manual gearbox you can have it without a turbocharger in sight. A rare thing nowadays, and it's only becoming rarer.

      @BoraMarkovic 8 років тому +19

      +Bryn Barker Don't think anyone watched Top gear cause of its analytical reviews which it never had. People watched it for being a fun show with 3 guys who together were amazing and funny. I doubt there will ever be such trio.

      The new Top Gear will fail if it tries to imitate the old show. It needs its own identity. This Xcar chap looks quite capable of non-serious car segments, although I expect the new Top Gear to be more serious than before anyway. Otherwise Clarkson's new show will slaughter them.

    It hurts to think about the end of pure, natural engines, fingers crossed it doesn't happen for a very long time. At first I didn't really like the new R8, I thought the looks compared to the first generation where a bit off but my my, this vid has changed my mind. Great shots of the car guys & amazing vid overall. Long live natural aspiration!!!

    Dude, you are my soulmate. So great to see someone having the same opinion on turbo and naturally aspirated engines. Turbos are so... Powerful, so crazy and so amazingly perfect. But a V10 like this just has... a SOUL.

    The audi r8 with it's big v10 on the other hand, seems like a different world compared to the TT.
    At Audi they really seem to know how to make a flagship car stand out!

    I currently own the huracan performante and previously had the r8 and I can assure you the performante feels a lot more solid than the R8. Having said that one costs twice as much as the other so to be expected.

  • @MikeKersley

    I've had Porsches for 10 years. Got bored with them...bought an R8Plus this year and have never looked back. Brilliant car, brilliant dealership at Poole Audi, unfortunately I can't say the same about Porsche at Ferndown who, to be honest, couldn't give a damn about keeping my business. Which to me has turned out to be a good thing - my R8 Plus is brilliant, a head turner, and much better in all respects than my previous 911s. No contest. Porsche at Ferndown need to get their act together!!

  • @Buran01
    @Buran01 8 років тому +1

    I think that the old model looked better and since the basic powerplant was "only" a 420 HP V8 the distance in the cost from the R8 and the Gallardo had a lot of sense.
    The new one is not only ugly -too blocky, no sideblades- but also (Plus or not) uses a V10 which is so close in price to the Huracán that the Lambo directly competes against. And if you have to spent the same 200k € in an Audi or a Lambo the chances are that most of the fortunete people which can afford if will chose the more exclusive, higly stylized Huracán over the R8, in the same way that people chose the A8, 7 Series or S class over the Phaeton.

  • @Samson44444
    @Samson44444 8 років тому

    Since Huracan and the R8 are so similiar its all in the matter of which looks the best. Imo, the R8 looks better so...id rather have an Audi today than a Lambo....strange times.

  • @hhharada
    @hhharada 8 років тому

    Maybe some purists cant afford most of these supercars (myself included), but a portion of future buyers are the people who once lived the dreams of owning these machines. So the job of keeping this dream alive is not to be ignored by car makers. I believe manufacturers should make at least one version of their supercars the way the enthusiasts would like to see. That would not be difficult, considering that they already make cars for journalists to like and create the car's reputation.

    So Turbo engines are more efficient than equivalent HP non turbos? Why do some people not like Turbos? I drove twin turbo GTRs briefly never really pushed em but didn't notice any turbo lag they seemed plenty fast and responsive, I also drove a Toyota Supra for a bit longer, and liked it's power as well, That one uses sequential turbos, which are supposed to prevent any turbo lag, it seems like a good idea.

    I think I'm right in saying that only 3 production cars in the world still use the V10. This, the Huracan, and the Viper (which i believe is going to disappear soon)
