Really in depth and interesting
I noticed only a choice between your bmw and Porsche, when will the 720s be offered?
Insane running costs! Just proves Apex is Robert living his dreams, not a money making exercise! Means we all benefit from his addictions ;-)
Good that he has those and wants to share it with other less fortunate people.
@@lg9839 Why yes, Apex is a company and every for-profit company is a "money making exercise", in a way.
But I think what Joe meant is that Apex doesn't exist for Robert to squeeze every last cent of possible profit out of it and you can tell that is true by just how the company is run.
For example: I ordered a jacket from them and by mistake they sent me two - instead of asking for one of 'em back they said "No, it's fine. Keep both."
@@lg9839 *You're
😱 I’ll never complain about the service costs for my own car again!
You have to be thrashing the car pretty hard to get those costs
🤣🤣 for real
haha! i just did mine 360 dollars oil oilfilter ACfilter and new front tires :)
This is just insane knowledge you put out there, thank you so much.
Jesus joni macaroni thats some running costs! Glad Roberts a petrolhead and not just looking for BIG profit. A lap in these taxis is actually living the dream and a big event in some peoples lives. All the best guys✌
Thumb up for Robert!To own a great cars, to make people happy and excited and at the end to have a profit no matter how much...great businessman!
These two videos are the most interesting ones I’ve seen in a while. The thought and care you put into the business is very inspiring.
also, within the non-season you have expenses but not a dime of revenue. quite risky and therefor the prices are definitely more than fair. but of course you dont have to drive a 720S if you don't wanna pay that money.
A really informative and well presented insight and your transparency was truly refreshing. All goes to show why your brand is going the way it is. Look forward to a passenger lap of my own later in the year.
Holy shit... the Numbers are crazy… i will drive my bicycle on the Ring😂
I thought the disks were pretty good. Given the rears also act as a diff its amazing to get 1200
Astonished by the costs you at Apex cover, just to provide the passion and enthusiasm required to offer the best package and experience possible. Looking forward to saving up and hopefully getting to visit and experience it myself, (saying that for over a year now :-) Another great VLOG of interest, looking forward to the next one!
Insane! You guys are amazing. I could listen to you guys for hours. These kind of videos were really my cup of tea!
Some day when I have the economic opportunity to go to the Ring you will be my first choice.
Keep doing what your are doing! The way of thinking is one in a million in business and shows that true heroes are behind Apex. Rock on! 🤘🏻
AMAZING insight into running a taxi. Eye opening.
EXCELLENT VIDEO. THANK YOU.
Great content, not only is it a great informative video on your company, having a transparency that probably nobody else in the market has, but also great lessons about business in general.
Man Robert, you are in your element when talking about business. You clearly have a passion for it. Keep up the great work!
Robert is a special man.
Two great videos! Really interesting and cool to get an insight into the buisiness aspect of Apex as well.
great vid gents, so informative and I must doff my cap to Rob's fairness for quality over profit and enthusiasm for allowing your customers to have the best taxi experiences!
Misha, this was a great video. The edit, audio, info .. Everything was great and at the end of the day it's great that you(Robert) can employ all these people and everyone does their job and that consumers get to enjoy it too. You guys are great. you will be more efficient and your youtube channel will continue to grow and help absorb Misha's salary :) ..
great to see robert more in front of the camera lately, very insightful material!
Thanks again for sharing. Roberts a true businessman. Honest, fully aware, realistic and knows all the details of everything. The business will be successful, it will grow!! Awesome. Very impressed.
Loved the last two videos good stuff.
Fascinating pair of videos, thanks for sharing the info guys.
Excellent video on the cost involved , thank you for sharing the insight, this will hopefully make customers appreciate what goes into running a taxi and add to the customers overall experience.
Great break down, thank you for making us understand why things cost.
Great job, all the best!
Amazing video series. Thanks for sharing!
2 of my friends and I bought a lap in the M3 in August 2018.
At first I was a little bit hesitant, because of the €269 for only approx. 8 minutes of action.
But the whole experience right from booking a lap in the Taxi-office to the amazing driver was really fantastic!
- I would not have guessed that the driver was driving conservatively, to protect the car!
10/10 would definitely book again! :D
Thats a really impressive and professional presentation. Love it! 👌
Those are some crazy running costs! Makes sense that it would be high for such an expensive supercar, but seeing the individual breakdown really highlights it.
Where did you calculate the profit from the money laundring operations? 🤣😇J/k .. Nice to see videos like this, it's a good explanation to non-car people why a lap with the taxi costs x amount of money. Robert should start a business-wise UA-cam channel :P Seems like a good mentor.
Guys this was so interesting !! I have learned a lot from this video and it's obvious your cost calculation is realistic ! I think I will pay more attention about how I drive my car during TF thanks to you :D
Hello Misha, Hello Carmrades, Hello Robert. As usual : so good to learn from you.
Really enjoyed these two videos as it gives a great understanding on how you keep the business running succussfully. One day I'd love to go for a few a laps ! :-)
Great videos gents, very open and informative 👍🏻👍🏻
Robert and Misha, thanks for your candor. Your company is the type that I would gladly use for taxi laps in the future. You both have character and conviction unparalleled. I would actually enjoy working for you some day!
Great video - excellent explanation of costs. From your video I've been looking at Nankang tires here in the States for my 09 Porsche Cayman (base) that I do not track except for occasional slower charity laps. Still trying to figure out the appropriate Nangang tire that I should use (suggestions welcome). I'm in no rush to buy because the tires on the car now will be good for a while to come but just planning ahead.
Great video. Extremely interesting to know what it takes to run such an outfit and the costs involved. I'm actually thinking of coming over for a lap. Best wishes JC
Great video. Agein 👍
I hope you get a super year.
👋🇩🇰
Glad you're using the McLaren's and great insight into how the business is run. And that the safety of the customer comes first. Thanks..
Again thanks a lot! Great Video!
Interesting video guys, thanks for the insight into running your operation. Remembering back to the first concept of "Apex" and the "shitbox rental" I can see why you decided against having it. Seems to me if it was very popular you would have had to replace almost every part on a "shitbox" car within the first month and would still be concerned for the safety of the car and any passengers.
Awesome video Misha and Robert!! Was always wondering while watching the taxi on the ring what the runnings costs would be.
This whole cost video shows the massive level of thought behind running Apex and the huge amount of effort by the whole team to provide the highest level of customer satisfaction & safety!
Once again, straight to the news on autoevolution. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Thanks gentlemen for the cost breakdowns. Those of us with mid-level domestic performance cars get crazy when we have to spend $200 for some brake pads, $200 for set of rotors. The Maclaren is no joke.. those numbers are eye opening. The taxi fare is sweet..
awesome videos, pure passion
amazing to see what goes into running a taxi and rental company, apex is so well prepared with the maintenance!
what a dream enterprise, thanks for sharing this!
God,... how i love these bbs e88s. just a work of art. btw very interesting Video! ;)
Eli B. They’re beautiful and iconic, but not as impressive from an engineering/manufacturing standpoint than a forged one-piece wheel.
Amazing insight and would definitely book with you over any other ring taxi firm
Heading out to the ring hopefully in the fall this year and I was debating if I wanted to spend so much on a taxi lap with you guys, but this video puts into perspective how reasonable it is, and honestly I feel like it's amazing value considering the caliber of cars you run. If I get the time off work to visit I'm bringing taxi money with me!
L G serious, i think this video does well to explain the costs and I’m happy to support a business that is willing to keep their margins low to provide an experience
Very nice. Will book a lap at the new ring. See you soon.
Thanks for sharing, those figures are pretty interesting!
Amazing! Your company, people are amazing! Ispairing and realy good organization. tnx for sharing this
Really interesting video !
+Misha -- Great content that I'd bet no other company like yours, or at other tracks, would be willing to share. Love the openness. Also you deserve congratulations on going over 100 thousand subscribers and over 21 million views. Absolutely incredible!
Very cool guys! Good Vid
Very cool, enjoyed that. Was the basic cost of car included ? I like these openness/transparency vids ..🏴💪🏻❤️
Amazing to see the professionalism guys!
The last two episodes are a business school. No one would educate us better. Great company, great ppl.
Very very interesting. Well done 👍
Brilliant videos!
hey guys great videos - keep them coming! Really appreciate the breakdown of costs on the McLaren- I am just selling my 12C and getting a 570S Spider with Ceramic brakes. Was wondering if you guys have looked into Pagid RSC pads for the 720 or if your using some other aftermarket pad or factory pads, please let me know as I would love to take advantage of your experience here, thank you! One other question has to do with track alignment on these cars - are you running a more aggressive alignment for track if so could you shed some light on how you achieved this as most of the geometry on McLaren's is very limited in adjustment. thanks!
awesome! wish to do this one day!
Super vidéo !
Quality is expensive. You can't offer such value for any less, and anyone reasonable will understand that. Keep up the great stuff, Misha! What is happening with Daniel & Ana these days? Haven't seen them on your channel in a long time
Lots of things have changed :)
I love the track videos but I enjoy these type just as much.
Very intresting video!
Really interesting breakdown
thanks for are great video !!!!
You guys are the best
Fantastic stuff! You are true petrol heads! Shame you couldn't get a Valkyrie. It might not be the most cost effective but you'd certainly be able to charge a good lap rate! It would be bloody amazing!
It´s a lot of money but well spent. I hope to do a taxi lap this year in October because my body needs one.
dear mclaren owner, robert prove ur ceramic brakes cost less than a bmw. dont forget to run nankang tyres. now keep driving!
Bravo ! Shows great expertise !
Though one question ...
Are you guys not allowed to carry any promotion on your cars other then the company name Apex ?
With a few good targetted sponsership deals, you would be able to take your fixed costs down a lot.
If you are running +1000 laps a year, imagine the “broadcast” time you could make for a brand.
And Misha, we really love your vids !
Great info into the hard work, time, and cost, that you invest at Apex, to be able to offer people the ultimate experience.
Been awhile Nice to see a vid. The costs of the McLaren i can see why you don't use it for buiness anymore
You can buy so many VW UPs for these amounts :P The honesty is very much appreciated, great insights.
Thank you very much for this very informative video, goes far beyond the call of duty.
However - What about depreciation? Surely the largest cost to owning a 720S?
Very interesting video, no bullshit just straight facts.
Great video
Love to working in apex. That's will be my dream job. Doing what I enjoyed 😍
What is the background music? Sounds good. Interesting video aswell!! :-)
I'm surprised the McLaren is only €30 per lap more expensive than the M3.
Puts the pricing in perspective now cheers guys!
great video :)
Great insight
Would you do a video on the yearly costs of the Sub 7Up?
Hey Misha, any chance of doing another one of these with Robert looking back at 2019's running costs?
12:59 great slav squat, Misha!
You do it for all the racing fans
Misha, will you do a Vlog on the GTS? Want to hear your impressions of it in comparison to M2Comp. Once the ring opens in spring maybe you could do a comparison of both cars.
Of course!
Will do a lap with my gf this year. If it wouldnt be misha i wouldnt even know of apex :*) i think he is a great investment hehe
Paul Osweiler I really enjoy having him around :-)
W42PZ no I don’t think that happened lol
Top video 👍
Good economy!! Nice explained //C
After watching I can clearly say my civic is cheaper to run 😝
How high are the costs for foodshot delivery in this car?
Very good info lads.. What a the contingency for a crash or write off. Will insurance cover complete costs including down time for staff and the car?
Nope. And they will cover and then blacklist you.
how much fuel does the cars consume on a lap ?(and the fuel consumption)
Super video, yea when you look at the prices you think ah scary. But when you think about it in my case even before the video and definitely after the video, with all the costs involved the prices you charge are really reasonable, your not even making that much of s profit. You know I've always thought Robert looks like such a genuinely nice decent honest person, wish all business people were like him, shows you can be successful and be nice and not be an arse! Imagine blimey he's kids are going to be so happy he's their dad, they'll just be like wow he's done so much he's amazing, I can imagine them thinking he's like a super hero or something lol! Obviously Misha is amazing too all the same for misha as I've said for Robert! But just wanted to say it because Roberts more behind the camera! :)
Great video again 😃 I wonder how you make any profit with the schirmer m4 gt, or does Robert more see it as a fun car for himself and for promoting apex at the same time?
M4 is private collection car :)
