@@Polarbear2829 I'm american but I dont associate with these "car guys" who drive automatic because they don't know how to drive manual. I learned to drive manual on a 97 civic with a fart can exhaust a couple years ago. Only reason I drive automatic right now is because it's extremely difficult to get a Mercedes with a manual transmission. I use manual mode all the time tho and love to hear the v8 growl
Cameron Peralta car guys in america probably drives manual, but all left average people in america probably never seen 3 pedals in their life. maybe americans are lazy to understand how stick shift works
hahah. I also thought they wouldn't know how to open the trunk, but they got lucky. I have Audi 80 B4 and when i first got it I had issues opening the trunk too ;D. Old Audis have such cool design tho..
In our country (Germany) its not allowed to straight piped a car. We have a station called "Tüv". Every German car has to go there every two years. Then your car gets checked if there are technical issues or non original car parts If you straightpipe your car your "Tüv license" get lost and You're not longer allowed to drive the car on the Road. You guys are very lucky in the USA Greetings from Germany
I think it’s a good deal no matter what. Tires and wheels are worth more than $725 and I bet it runs after battery and coolant fix. I had a 2002 5-valve 4-cylinder turbo Passat Wagon that went almost 300,000 miles. Aside from small oil leak, it ran fine at the end. I only sold it because I found a used 2016 A6 in beautiful condition. I also recently bought a 2008 VW VR6 4-Motion Wagon with 135,000 miles that runs like a charm (I’ll post a video soon). VW/Audi products often need a lot of TLC along the way, but they’ve been durable in my experience. Thanks for your awesome videos!
When we owned a repair center, we loved spoiling our customers. It didn't matter what the vehicle came in for, we die walk around inspection. This included polishing out headlight bezels, parking light lenses, tail light lenses. We checked all the fluids, cleaned the battery cables, and lots more. We used McQuires cleaner and polish on all the lenses. We thought if you sent a family member to our shop to get a small item repaired, and the vehicle wouldn't start tomorrow, you wouldn't like so much anymore. However if we found a potential breakdown item, you would really appreciate it. My main comment is the acquired for your headlight lenses.
like how its still on the trailer and its being washed . check out the movie with robert deniro called "Ronin" ... bad asss car chase with A8 .. epic . enjoy !
I had 2 C5's and disagree about the front end, but that might be my bias fer ya! lol I actually thought prior to the reveal, that it was going to be an '03 C5 RS6. That would be an incredible find at that price.
Grand PA had one ! it's a blast and You can put a lot of parts from future models in it like the RNS-e GPS with... TV enabled. I know they whatch TV while driving in Germany and this car is capable to do it with the right mods. And the engine is incredible. And it's an ultra speed train on the road.
Superb Motor. Used to have one. Here in UK it is written in Copart T&C we are not allowed to contact previous owner. Not that we haven’t done that to get second key and service book 😄
I had one of these S8s a long time ago. The transmissions usually go out at about 60,000 miles. The car does not feel as quick as it is, and is not very comfy for a big luxury car. Maintenance is expensive. So they are rare for a reason. But the Bauhaus style is nice and timeless, methinks. And the seats really were good.
I did the same thing trying to open my trunk when I first got my A8! Haha! Great find in that condition, can’t wait to see where your build goes, best of luck!
"Worse case scenario it blows up" Boom! Lmao that was funny. It was a good deal, I feel like you guys will start it up, probably a minor issue but you guys have been on a roll so I see it continuing. Good Luck!
I love this model! One time I saw that thing in dark green metallic and really huge wheels on it. No straight pipes no engine mods but 22" wheels and rather low.
You know that this car with the turbo took over all other racing competitions in the 80's. Look up Hans Stuck Audi racing. They even won all the super cars like Corvettes, Porsche, Mustang and others around the world. It was the best racing car ever made with the Quattro system.
Don’t think you guys can go wrong here. At $725 you have more in parts. Paint work looks pretty great for 19-20 year old car. I fancy you are still on your lucky roll, good luck!
Good stuff, but almost certainly the D2 needs a new transmission. It's the main reason they wind up at auctions. It's a ZF box, but there are rebuilds and upgraded TQ converters, and of course, manual swaps. Good luck.
If you did not know of it before , you got lucky now , it is a legend the "mafia" car , and it is a old beast and can pull quite fast for that age and size.
My holy grail! I used to detail new Audis for delivery in the late 90s - early 2000s. Ive had the pleasure of driving all kinds of Audis from then. But this car was my favorite! A big body beast for sure. Great find guys, can't wait to see what happens...should be a give away car (wink, wink)
I highly approve of this purchase. Love these cars they are underappreciated. Continue buying more late 90’s early 2000’s Audi’s. Since they always have issues there will probably always be content to make on them
So to check the damage, I would say 1 check why the passenger window is broken. 2check the front and rear crash bars for damage 3maybe the badges were removed at the body shop so...
I have a 2003 D2 S8 myself and they are really good cars. However, I would replace the radiator bc the engine gets really hot in a short amount of time (I learned the hard way). Definitely rebadge it. Also, the car has like 3 mufflers and 2 cats, so I would recommend removing both cats and 2 of the mufflers. It will still be stupid loud. It idles quiet, but it revs decently loud past 4500 rpm. The engine is bulletproof. The transmission is not. It handles like an s4 so it should feel easy to drive. Have fun with it. It’s an awesome car!
Beautiful paint on the S8. Can't say more till it runs It was pretty quick for a big car. Gonna B fun. About the damage, the entire engine is forward of the frnt. axle and the frame is aluminum . . . so there is possibly some expensive hidden damage behind the valance. Oh, how much HP has this one got. It ranged from 310 to 360 depending on the market. All in all a great deal. Thanks.
Amazing find guys👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 and for 750 DOLLARS !!!!!! I mean that's flipping amazing, I hope the battery was the only major problem as to why the engine night not run
Definitely put the badges back on and contact the previous owner. Detail it esp do the headlights and it looked like the interior will clean up nicely too. Hoping the car runs
Straight pipes once it’s running??🤔
Ofcourse 😂
Definitely, also yes rebadge it !! 🔥

In albania i have only seen one
In Serbia that audi see on streets very much
Truth 🤣🤣
100% re badge it the red S badges look so good against the white
Well, here in Europe this car ain't rare at all, every drug seller has this car😂
My plug in Sweden had one, he crashed it and bought a manual E46
J'allais le dire quel deception de voir une S8 je m'attendais a une Audi V8 un truc du genre
Why do drug dealers choose to use this car?
Lol

also rebadge the s8, definitely.

Is it on Netflix?
Splitz Camel no but just rent it should be cheap

You should take the car back to the owner and see their reaction
Relief.
Very good deal! Can't beat these old tanks and the 4.2 Audi engines are absolutely incredible. Good luck boys!
I wish it would be that easy in Germany with cars as it is in the us :(
Nice pickup guys, I'm the guy who came up to you in the parking lot while you were waiting for the loader to come out. Cheers!

That’s an awesome deal for an S8. They have some great upgrades over the normal A8 like larger front brakes and more power output.
I have been waiting for ever to see the new rare car
I have one with a 6 speed manual, and super sprint magnum exhaust. Truly a thrill with it's 7000 RPM redline. Very underrated cars.
Nice Audi! Amazing vehicle, MAKE IT STRAIGHT-PIPED.

Yes! Yes! Yes, Give it the badges, make this classic as original as possible, one owner?!?! She is a beauty! A pearl!! Cheers!
Only thing he cares about “ it smells good”
HUGE WIN!!! As long as it hasn't lost its timing chain because Audi is notorious for that on the big V8 S series
Good deal!!! Either way. If engine is bad. You can make out parting out. Love this car!!! Sill worth $$💯🎉
Airride + vossen + full black respray + engine rebuild + supercharger + interior retrim + detail : )
Absolutely great deal !!! Make it into the car from the movie "Ronin" with Robert De Niro.... just dont change the color.
This car is growing on me man , from initial impressions to the end amd i am liking it.
Put the badges back on. It’s a collectible that thing is sick
Superb Motor. Used to have one. Here in UK it is written in Copart T&C we are not allowed to contact previous owner. Not that we haven’t done that to get second key and service book 😄
Can’t wait for the videos for their car 😈
Great buy. I’d deal with mechanical rather than cosmetic work all day. Plus these older Audi’s have way simpler electronics to deal with
I'm on the "love it" side - in the regards to the styling.
Definitely an awesome buy. Looking for on myself. I'm a massive Audi guy and fan of these older Audi's.
Everytime i see the ''rare'' car i'm like there are tons of these in europe..
But good catch!

Just picked up my 03’ S8!! It wasn’t $700 but that’s cause she’s CLEAN!!! Ming Pearl Blue. Only 300 in the states of the 03’!
I’ve had one for 4 years if y’all have any questions
"Worse case scenario it blows up" Boom! Lmao that was funny. It was a good deal, I feel like you guys will start it up, probably a minor issue but you guys have been on a roll so I see it continuing. Good Luck!
Never been this fast❤
Wow, based on the auction description I think you are going to be crazy lucky with this one. Good Luck!
"The Outlaw"! You paid 1% of its original price! So it's legit a 1 percenter! Outlaw motorbike clubs are known as 1%ers!
only the KILLERS in the club are known as 1%ers...they got a KILLER DEAL, so its legit!~ lol
Sweet car! I think you guys will be able to start it. Absolute home run if you ask me, even if it doesn’t start
Does it have the GPS in the gauge cluster like the Audi’s from that era
JR makes any car look good😂😂 no matter the condition of it
He keep spoiling us “buying a rare car” in the end it’s just an old normal car ..
I love this model! One time I saw that thing in dark green metallic and really huge wheels on it. No straight pipes no engine mods but 22" wheels and rather low.
Make it good old rare car without straight pipes
That will be so nice
Old school audi s8 saloon car
Am i right?
yep everyone here wants to straight pipe it this audi with the straight pipe sounds like garbage'

Next car reveal i bet its gonna be BMW since you've done Audi and Mercedes might aswell get all EU cars in your collection lol
For sure, $750 is a good gamble. Pond the rims and tires off if it blows up to break even. Yes, restore the badges.
If the auction company sees this video, they will feel like a complete idiot
Don’t think you guys can go wrong here. At $725 you have more in parts. Paint work looks pretty great for 19-20 year old car. I fancy you are still on your lucky roll, good luck!

You guys are so lucky! I remember this color from the 90s! It's awesome!
Good deal no matter what! If the engine is dead, you can sell just a few of the parts and recoup your investment asap!
If you did not know of it before , you got lucky now , it is a legend the "mafia" car , and it is a old beast and can pull quite fast for that age and size.
its a great deal. In the worst-case scenario sell the wheels with the tires. This car looks absolutely beautiful!
Fingers crossed i hope it starts. Didn't like it the first time but when you gave it a wash it just got to me .
