Renault Espace F1: am I a joke to you? Seriousely this thing is sick as hell it's got a frickin' Renault F1 engine in the middle of it. And I forgot, IT'S A F*CKING MINIVAN
We have a pandemic, half the country is on fire, the government is being taken over by the far-far right, and the world is still ending because of climate change... But we have James still, everything will be ok.
Max S. That’s just seems odd to me, as an American. Although I’d imagine that’s a lot cheaper. I appreciate the view into how it’s different in other countries, thanks for that.
@@levygaming3133 It would be really impractical for a large bus to squeeze through tiny residential streets at rush hour, it's also easier for the kids to find their way to and home from the bus stop when it's always in the same place (and marked).
James telling me to take care of myself in an AD while he's clearly kicking ass on his health to insure his heart stays healthy.....I just want to say I'm so happy with James not hiding his health issue, legit good roll model and several times I've made some little improvements remembering what he went through so I've made better choices for myself like doing cardio and not getting massive bladder buster soda at gas stations
just looked it up, forgot Wörth was a real lake, my mind split up the word Wört-her-see-treffen.. which initial did not make sense but hey who am i to judge. :-)
I remember the Furai so well, I recognized it in the heavily pixelated image you had in the intro. So glad it featured here. I watched every video featuring it about a dozen times. Such an amazing looking concept. Too bad it went up in flames.
What would consist of a fake rotary tho? I know what you were trying to say tho. Next time you feel you need to say something, kick back for a min and think.
@@B5s4 "What would a fake rotary consist of, though? I know what you were trying to say, though. The next time you feel that you have something you need to say, kick back for a minute, and think." Fixed that for you. Kind of ironic... though.
@@joealex65 im not sure whats wrong with furriest's grammar, but he is definitely drunk or something... seriously it doesn't make sense, foUrtEEn WErE buIlD ONLY SIX ARE ALIVE AT TODAYS DAY!!11 obviously owned by mazda japan? what?? and who said it was unique (it is though)
I think the need for someone to commission an oil painting of James walking to Pandas (Randy and Rondine) on leashes wearing matching donut media merch is not only a great idea but dare I say what the world needs right now.
Little known fact…. That isn’t even a Holden either…. It’s a rebadged Opel Insignia. And I think the Pontiac GTO Ute was technically a one-off since, as you said, they never made it to production. (Atleast not as the GTO Ute. But we did get the G8 and the Zeta 2 Chevy SS) And.. the GTO isn’t a Commodore, it’s a Holden Monaro. Another random car fact (and I don’t know why I’m even thinking about this) but the gt3000 was actually originally branded GTO as well. Also the Ferrari GTO. Grand Turismo Omalgato = Grand Touring.
I love how this show is slowly evolving into a Conspiracy about Max. What if James is just a prisoner for Max and is forced to talk about cars, when he actually hates cars and collects Porcelain dolls.
I'm so glad the Furai made it here! I still remember my jaw being on the ground when I saw back in like 2007. I didn't know it burned down though 😔. RIP KING
I had this weird dream the other day-donut made a video saying they’re giving Aaron a show where basically he teaches u driving techniques and how to drive stuff. I woke up to watch it and was disappointed lol. Maybe an idea for a new show?
This is the new generation of Top Gear. I wish Prime or Netflix would give these guys a series already so we could stop hearing about sponsors and Donut could have a massive budget.
@@civicrider5556 if im understanding correctly, the W12 was too wide to fit in the golf so they actually had to modify the body and space out the rear wheels. so yes, it was done by VW
@@jcdenton4902 and the Espace as well, although that was way cooler than that 4wheeled electric chair with F1 Aero and a KERS system. The Espace had the proper V8 used in F1 at the time!

The Escort ZX2 was a ripping good time. Light as a feather, the inline 4 banger had some zip to it, and easy to work on. My dad had two junkyard zetecs and there was exactly one good configuration between the two of them. I made sure to throw it in the one with the 5 speed, and when I turned 16 it was my little rat box kiddy rally car. Unfortunately I let it go before I got comfortable throwing it around the curves of the OMR roads.
Mustang utes were actually made, and they were called Mustero. They were only made in 1966 in limited quantities (only 50 were made), and they were aftermarket conversions by a Ford dealer in Beverley Hills, Los Angeles. Here's an article about it: oldcarmemories.com/1966-ford-mustero-ultra-rare-mustang-pickup/
50 "Curtis Jackson" Cent is the best joke I've heard in a long time. Also, big points for putting the freaking POPE JPII up there with the kings. Plus, James' Italian impression had me rolling. This episode is full of hits, damn
not gonna lie, I wish that modernized style of the classic charger was sold today for the public, I love how it looks because it perfectly shows the old an new styling so well to me. that style is my favorite that I've seen in a long time and would've loved it on the road if it wasn't for it being a one off
@@Wr0zen Sorry bud... last we heard was when they were taking time off across the board for all Donut shows. The others are all back. The wife and I must have missed the announcement.
@@JMDrives I got into Donut for fun a year or two ago, and she joined in for the comedy and to learn about car culture while we were shopping for a new one. Now it's what we watch while eating dinner.

Theories on where PaganiGaming is? Go:
In his mother's basement.
Im upset. This video didnt include the Chrysler Norseman.
He grew up and stopped harrassing james💀
On a quest to find out about James' dad by himself.
You talked with him on discord and tell him to stop asking for an up to speed on your dad? Or something
I’d love to see that Imperial with a Hellephant
We would all love it
hellcat/demon brakes would solve the funny brakes issues lol
Me too!
Definitely!

The sweet sound it made.. heavenly 🙌🏽

They plug it into a minivan video this week. Coincidence? 👀👀👀👀👀👀
Renault is basically unknown in USA :( its depressing af, worlds best hatchbacks for sure.
Yea
The lost of Furai was a painful memory in my teenage years, I felt sad for weeks back then.
Same. When I heard about what happened I was so upset.
Same. I was distraught.
Do we want to see Nolan swap a Hellephant into a 1952 Imperial?
That sounds dangerous....
OF COURSE WE WANT TO SEE IT
I’d donate for this cause
That would be a cool restromod build
This is probably one of the most interesting D-lists ever
Why? Only crushed dreams that were made for publicity
@@LetsPlayDoni Yeah I don't think VW will sell a 200mph Hatchback ever

a pretty rare one too.

I own it
@@grantbeason2253 of course you do
Seriously? That is insane.
"German people don't talk like that"
No, because we don't drive kids to the schoolbus.
Mostly for lack of Schoolbusses.
Also, typically the school bus drives to you, not the other way around.
@@levygaming3133 Nope, the few "school buses" we got (chartered city buses) still only stop at defined points, not at any random private property.

Why they just couldn't build another one, it's not like blueprints burned down

How about an up to speed on just donut media in general

Who is msx
“STRAP IN MEIN KINDER! IT IS TIME TO GO TO ZE SCHOOL BUS!”
The Furai still stings to this day. Maybe my all time favorite concept car. If I had a clue how to…do things, I’d totally build a replica of it
Little known fact…. That isn’t even a Holden either…. It’s a rebadged Opel Insignia.
And I think the Pontiac GTO Ute was technically a one-off since, as you said, they never made it to production. (Atleast not as the GTO Ute. But we did get the G8 and the Zeta 2 Chevy SS)

We need that charger... even if it doesn’t have 1000 hrsprs
Highway reaper with 750hp. That's my idea
Looks awesome. But here in Europe we only get mini engines
I’d love for them to start reproducing gen 2 Charger bodies, finally no more rust replacement
Really hope they resort to that with all the cool cars coming out in 2021 so they can compete
It looks SO awesome!
I love how this show is slowly evolving into a Conspiracy about Max. What if James is just a prisoner for Max and is forced to talk about cars, when he actually hates cars and collects Porcelain dolls.
