- First big group test of 2013. Audi's R8 has a new dual-clutch transmission, the Turbo S is on its way out and for £20k, Litchfield will give you a 750hp GT-R than can handle normal roads. Game on.

R8 anyday. By far the best looking and that naturally aspirated V10 is th eight wonder of the world.
***** Yeah for almost three times the price I'll take the R8 all day long
It is way over priced for what it is the Mclaren is a much better car for half the price. I cannot understand why Toyota priced it so high
***** the LFA is not faster than the R8 lol
***** You know you can get the R8 with a manual gearbox. Tell me what is more fun than that. Btw, the sound of the LFA is very nice but it's a lot more fake than the Audi. And Nurburgring lap times doesn't say very much to the average buyer.
Spot on with that comment. Dual clutch now the best gearbox in the world has ever seen. Very suiting...
In the Audi and Porsche he actually looks like he is having fun but in the Nissan he is just terrified
Avatar Gamer, they do that to you but that’s the fun of it, you always get out of it shaking like you had 8 espressos back to back lol.
a tip : you can watch series on flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies recently.
@Bentley Isaiah Yea, been using Flixzone for years myself :)
Holy crap the Audi can grip the road like that with a street tire thats insane.
yeah man i just got to ride in a r8 a couple of hours ago the grip is insane!!
The R8 is hitting some serious Gs. Check out the open center console lid. @6:32
Even though I am a huge 911 fan, I would gladly choose the R8 V10 over the 911 Turbo. It just had more drama and excitement overall. The GT3, however, is another story.
what about the GT3? do you like it as well?
Love the GT3, I would choose it over the R8.
its a 997...
not 911
Shawn Toh A 997 is a 911. A 991 is a 911. A 996 is a 911. A 993 is a 911. A 964 is a 911. They are all 911s..
O.O
wthe....
lol thanks for the explain...
the Audi is a sexy damn beast with ear orgasming sound coming from that 5.2 v10. It also has the best interior. Perfect car for long cruises then hitting the track
Wow. The 997 Turbo looks ancient.
anyone else notice the r8s glove box thing
Good lord YES!!!
Do you mean the centre console? Holy shit it was doing my head in, opening and closing
Lol it was bobbing up and down the whole lap
Frustrating to watch JUST CLOSE IT!!!! 😣
Glove box in my mates 1st gen R8 was all over the place too. Felt cheap as hell and not what you'd expect in the top of the range Audi. Interior in his earlier S5 felt nicer (apart from the loose fake alloy door trim)
To be able to appreciate these cars look's you have to see them in person. The Audi r8 is a truly beautiful machine it many not be as quick as a gtr but i can sacrifices speed for Looks, Quality and sound but that's just my 2 cens.
Your profile pic!!!! That's the greatest thing I've ever seen!!!
Trygve Germo Are you a mcm fan?
Yup
Trygve Germo May the boost be with you.
catless exhaust hahahah turbo yoda
I will never, ever get tired of watching Chris Harris videos. Fantastic stuff guys.
close the centre console.... it will make you go faster, and settle my OCD
haha!!
was thinking the same thing lol
You sir have won the internet tonight. Congratulations.
As someone who has OCD, I can say that's not OCD. It's just an annoyance.
hahaha. i was having a panic attack as i was watching it
I could watch a whole hour of Chris.
Audi R8 is one of the best super cars ever made, right up there with the Ferrari 458, Ferrari F-40
F40 is different
Random Spot I know but its a car thats gone down in history and I hope the R8 will also
Will James up there with the F-40? One of the daftest things i've ever read on UA-cam.
alfamonk Hell yes, just because you don't think so doesn't mean that it isn't. The f40 is a legend and so is the R8.
Will James
of course. But what elevates the R8 to iconic status..?
Love that R8 V-10 Plus! A supercar you could use as your daily driver!
I like how the center console just comes to life. 6:34
It's an Audi thing. Mine does it all day, they can't figure out where to put it so it's out of the way!
I absolutely love the way your Brits talk. It's so BLOODY proper. It's still was a PROPER video and well worth my time to watch....Time for tea!
Seems like the GTR wiped the smile off his face. lol
Takes focus to drive a 750hp turbo nutter on the edge.
SO lets get this right, the R8 is normally aspirated. no mods at all... it beats the 911 turbo and losses by 1 second to a twin turbo GTR that is modified to the hilt...... well im guessing the R8 is worth its weight in gold then.
I believe this GTR is modified to only 1/3 the hilt.
5.2L V10 vs 3.6 Flat 6 and 3.8L V6. Naturally aspirated but a much larger engine.
jocky102 you call this GTR modified to the hilt? Lolol. An AMS or ETS or Alpha Logic or Switzer GTR is highly modded. But a GTR from those tunners would rape any tunner car from porsche or audi.
@@conradsealy9603 Ever heard of a UGR TT Audi R8? If you want to talk tuning potential there is literally nothing that compares to that 5.2l.
@@catalyst429 talk to me when a ugr audi does this ua-cam.com/video/d_oktkaKBlc/v-deo.html
Love your narration ! It is exciting when it needs to be, always clear and also dramatic and soothing at the same time. And, you really know how to close a review, I just love your epilogs. Keep it up !
Love the GT-R. Looks, speed, everything.
Haha falls behind all top German cars today sorry dude Godzilla got eaten
@@patrickmcqueen6205 Still the best in its class, what are you talking about?
@@patrickmcqueen6205 lmao
That was an utterly brilliant video. I enjoyed every single second. Watching Chris' face change from manic laughter to furrowed fear and concentration within a split second was just great!
Came here for the R8. :)
X2 :)
Its totally impressive how the 911 goes away in the drag race compared to the R8, great car. The greatest part of this episode was the track test of the GT-R showing Chris totally speechless, love it.
This is one of the best videos I have seen in 2013. Good job Chris!
Great test episode Chris with some very nice driving. Love watching all your videos, keep up the great work!
As much as I love GTR, but I will take the R8. I love the 911 too but sorry I love the GTR more, but the 1st gen R8 is my favourite and always will be.
Three awesome cars with all four wheels off the ground. Chris Harris is a god, your awesome, keep these videos rolling in!
Finally, a review that fully appreciates the beauty of the Auid R8!
Audi wins, wow beating the 911 turbo S is impressive.... love what Audi is doing
they should compare the new audi with the new 991 turbo s not the 997
who thinks about driving abilities of Porshe are dumb as fuck, its for pleasure !
wait....wait.....wait....did he say....0-100mph in 5.7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There arent any words!!!
No. It won't do 0-100 in 5.7
I love that over the shoulder viewpoint. It gives an awesome perception of how fast these machines really are.
WHAT A FANTASTIC PRESENTER 10/10
love the arm rest going up and down on acceleration in the audi
I don't care that the Audi R8 is the slowest of the 3, It is still my dream car.
Go to Revo / Stasis and buy a Supercharger Kit. It'll churn out over 700hp after this too. AND sound great AND look better than the others. It's what i'd do if i feel short of power. :)
just because the nissan got tuned...
Brilliant video as always Chris. I loved watching the 'air time' as well.
Dude a beast driver his aggression driving and his ability to stay calm is perfect. Him. As a mentor would be nice
Let's not forget that the r8 is also FAR better looking than the others. The thing is absolutely beautiful.
I'd have the R8 then the GTR then the Porsche
I love the scared look on Chris's face when driving the GT-R. Another great review.
Incredible video as usual Chris and Drive team. Loved that the R8 arm rest box was just flapping around as he does the flying lap.
Audi R8 any day
I wish I could have both the Audi R8 & Nisaan GT-R in my garage and before going to work I would say to myself umm which one will I be driving today :)
Audi R8 V10 +: now with dual clutch tranny with flappy paddles and flappy center console lid! Yet another example why you have one of the most enviable jobs in the world! Kudos again, Mr. Harris!
Credibility is so hard to come by these days. Respect to Chris who delivers an unbiased opinion.
We all know how much he loves Porsches, yet he's able to give the nod to the better car if there's one. 👍
if I could afford any of these cars it would be the porshe
Yeah the Porsche is better now
Gotta love the way how Audi voids your warranty when they see you've been to a racetrack.
Expressions in the Nissan are hilarious! Focused, then bursts of uncontrolled laughter. : ) Great video!
Another brilliant test - top stuff that man :)
gtr with 750 hp, r8 with 550 hp and the gtr only beats it by 1 second on track? imagine the gtr without all its mods. it would be destroyed by the r8 and porsche. and for the dragrace, well yeah the gtr was faster but who cares at that point? the r8 is mind blowing fast and doesn't need any mods to be fast, comfortable, good looking, well build, perfect sound. and the v10! just for the engine, I would the extra price.
+Charles-David Bérubé I see that you're a R8 fanboy(nothing is wrong with that) but be realistic for a brief moment. Do you think that the only difference between the GTR and the R8 a mere 1 second difference? Do you know what that means on a race track? I must agree that the GTR was just on a whole different level but please do not believe that the GTR would have been spanked by these two cars in stock trim.
Elitecamp27 I know 1 second on track is everything but as an all day car, that one second is nothing. That's what I meant but I see your point here. The thing is, i honestly don't think that 1 second Will change the way the acceleration feels.
Not to mention that the GTR is a joke on the Nürburgring in comparison.
It's a terrible car made of plastic without heritage, without soul and only one purpose, and that is to be the fastest in a straight line. Why they chose the GTR instead of great Italian or British car is beyond me.
+Jaikee GER
Did you say without heritage? Can you seriously say that and really mean it? I consider myself a die hard car enthusiast. I love all cars but to downplay what the gtr is able to do Against cars that cost twice as much is baffling to say the least.
Elitecamp27 Yes, I can.
I'll take the audi and put about 650hp in it then it will be perfect.
So you'll need enough money too buy 2 r8's to tune that too 650hp, have fun with that lol
And what about everything else you need to make that chassis handle the hp increase, brakes, tires, suspension, cooling etc? And how much does a rebuild cost on a lambo engine if the pimply drug addict with a nose ring who installs it wrong at the tuner shop or forgets a bolt hmmm Tuning and reliability do not belong in the same sentence especially when lambo is in there too.... Go read the horror stories about rich dudes heavily tuning any car
a few extra hp lololol And the gt3 car uses the same largely the same chassis is is just too funny I didn't bother reading further lololol
Bhahahahaha go look at the insides and you'll see how "factory" race cars work and cheat what "looks similar" is not made off similar materials ... Billions are spent on advertising alone by these companies do you think they don't want to win, do you think they'd leave it to chance lololol ... You just don't understand the game of racing if you believe what your told lolololol
I love how you've never been around race cars and act like you know lolololol I work at a private car club btw lolololol we have fleets of race cars some more race than others even tho their from the same class and " look the same " they most certainly are not ... But you keep believing what your told lolol it'll make a good pick up line for you at the gay bar " you know my r8 is 85 percent race car " lololol
Chris Harris just makes every video better.
Some beautiful shots in this. Keep them coming chris!
Comparing the GTR's 750 HP to Audi's 550 doesn't seem at all fair. Both are nice cars but I would take the R8 every time.
The VDC and ET-S AWD handle 750hp pretty well. Nissan got the best stability, traction control and all wheel drive on the planet. If it's lighter with a stiffer damper, it'll become a UFO. Not to mention it beats the 918 in acceleration to 100mph...
LAUNCH CONTROL 東瀛戰神 Agreed. I'd have the GTR over all of these.
schnitz2210 all day!!
LAUNCH CONTROL 東瀛戰神 but have you seen him smiling in the GTR?
vivalaphill Pointless.
LAUNCH CONTROL 東瀛戰神 its called fun.
thanks for a fantastic episode
man its incedreble chris harris is the best car reporter i have ever seen. he describes everthing so good and all the footage you guys have done is just amazing! Wish to see stuff like that on televison!
Lol at 7:15 the center console lid won't stay down?
wow. everyone trashing the GTR should know that the chassis and the engine are about 7 years old now. next new one will be out soon. GTR's now aren't a big improvement over the original model. the engine, chassis, suspension and gearbox are pretty much the same with minor tweaks. the R8V10 and 911T are a different story.
The R8 is also seven years old and the only change is extra power and a different transmission.
SIMcityplayer2002 the lambo V10 makes a big difference over the V8 that it originally had.
do some research before you try to sound smart, the GTR has a new dual clutch transmission compared to the old grr that would shatter the transmission if you did hard launches with the traction control off. And the turbos aren't the same.
Transmission is the same and so are the turbos
Chris, I always having much fun of watching your vids! Wish you the best, and waiting for next drive! :)
What an awesome review, more of this kind of stuff please!
It doesn't feel like an Audi because of its Lamborghini V10.
nope. audis engines have never been the problem, it's the horrendous nose-heaviness and the tons of understeer. the r8 4.2 is just as great a car, and the 4.2 v8 is one of the greatest engines ever.
givemeajackson Not just the engine they borrowed from Lamborghini...
pakistanigrandma true, doesn't take anything away from the fact that the engine alone doesn't make this the great car it is.
Well, the 4.2 is also used in the RS4
Weirdnamed and it's one of the greatest engines there as well, just a great engine in an understeery boring car.
After Seeing This Video Ive Made Up My Mind The Audi R8 Is My Next Car.
bro….. bs
The fact that Chris was out of words while he drove the GTR makes the video (and of course his experience) even more rewarding!
I absolutely love the Audi R8! It's just freaking gorgeous!
An aftermarket car beat stock cars? Who would have thunk! Lol
Gee what fun spelling police have arrived! Yay.
Grammar Nazis on UA-cam who don't spell grammar correctly. LOL x10000
Not a fair race. Nissan GTR doesn't have 750hp stock...
Yeah but stock a gtr is about half the price of a 911 turbo s or an r8 v10 so you can get a gtr with the litchfield kit for still cheaper than the porsche or the audi
That's true. :-)
It's fair, the price tag is tied.
Well, even if that is the case, what matters at the end of the day is which car meets the drivers lifestyle the best. For example, I would buy a porsche 911 turbo S over and r8 and a gtr. The GTR is the fastest, hands down.
LAUNCH CONTROL 東瀛戰神 with that logic you could dump that amount of money into a civic and dust them all... but that's not what he was trying to do.
i loved watching the open centre console lid, moving with the g forces
Great video. Nuts times for the GT-R. Long live Chris Harris!
the audi is 180000 dollars and the new porsche 911 turbo s is 185000 dollars and you could buy a gtr in 80000 to 90000 dollars and tune it for 30000 dollars then it would beat and aventador also in a drag race
+Mohammed Masud Straight lines are not the only thing to a car. You live by a stupid philosophy.
a turbo s beats an aventador on a 1\4 mile
This is the 997 (the old gen) the 991 (the new gen) can destroy the GTR in a drag and on track. and the aventador can smoke the GTR...
+Im Not Creative the new 911 turbo is is 200k a GTR is 100k. Good job Porsche. Haha not
IEATPLANETS YESIDO Different cars. One is a sports car and the other is an exotic luxury sports car.
Lol that gtr doesn't smoke a superbike :)
On the track it might because you will take the corners faster but in straight you will need a gtr with 1xxx hp
Yeah treu, on track depents on the track.
I'd like to see a stock superbike do 0-60 in less than 2.7 on this shitty surface....60-160 my money would be on the bike but that 4WD launch is hard to beat
***** What superbike whas it?
On a straight the bike every time put in some corners and the car wins every time
Those slow motion jumps were awesome!
"Gotta have you're sport button on if you're gonna go fast!" LOVE IT!
I never liked the GTR. It just looks so cheap, and the Nissan badge isn't helping. The interior is just a shithole and the outside just looks so mainstream. The 911 is a bit better with a nice interior and it looks expensive but again it's just a heap of mainstream. I'll take the R8 thank you.
man, I love you . I think the same thing about the gtr and Nissan in generaly
Stop being a snob, your the type of guy to have everything designer aren't you 😂 feel free to own the r8 and 911, you can take in the view of the cheap arse of my gtr from there 👍🏼
Well gtr. It's not kind of my style. Even if it's the fastest one, i'm not gonna buy it. I admit that it's a great car, but you know. It's just a another japanese sports car. The audi. Style's great, it has great sound, great exterior. But, i want that 911. The only car that i wanted since i was kid has been 911. That's one of my life goal.
Excellent review. I totally agree with you.
Thank you. I thoroughly enjoyed that!
The GTR is a great motoring machine, but you can tell it was ONLY engineered for performance. I mean its so so Ugly
9ff kills GT-R
and the Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12+ kills the 9FF.
Nope
Anyone have any actual info to settle it?
In the youtube video "Porsche GT2 9ff vs Nissan GTR AMS Alpha 12 vs Porsche 911 Proto 100" the GTR Alpha 12 beats the GT2 9FF.
The gtr alpha 16 is fastest standing mile car ever recorded on their strip
Dragtimes that is
Chris...you're the best! Love it!
Respect for all these 3 cars, but the pic is the audi its a beautiful peice of work!!!!
I like the gtr design
Love Chris Harris. He's a very skilled driver
ONE million subscribers! Congratulations!
one part of me is jealous of chris because he gets to drive these amazing cars, then the other part is thankful because i enjoy every minute of these videos.
GREAT video!
10:48 to II:10 is why i love this whole vid. One of the most exciting things to experience first hand or even to watch from a distance is an overpowered sports car being hustled around at its limit.
My first viewing of C.H....I like it! Know I'll watch more.
This was a genuinely great review. As a real Nissan enthusiasts I love the GTR and all of its glory. However the the Audi R8 seems like a pure, balanced and proper sports car.
thanks Chris, great episode
btw love this vid pushed those cars to the limit with epic shots of insane drifts...great driving great video
LMAO!!!! Moments before Chris said he couldn't talk while he was driving in the GTR I was thinking DAM that must be a really fast car because he can't even talk while he's driving. The concentration on Chris's face says it all. The GTR is the true pure focus performance car. Love it.
Great reviev Chris!
07:29 fabulous shot, kudos to all involved in making these videos, Chris you've really hit your stride...
Harris’s best work. This era I mean.
brilliant episode
Great Vid - Thank you Mr. C. Harris.
best coach on earth and best car reviewer ever to live.
That video was awesome..
Porsche indicator, Audi glove Box, Datsun just perfect
Damn those slow mo drifts are cool!
I love that aggressive look of the gtr
