  • This is the 2020 Audi R8 V10 Performance. It has a top speed of 330km/h and is the most beastly of all the R8's. It has a naturally aspirated V10 (and a 10mpg fuel economy to match) flowing through Audi's Quattro system. Its had a few updates for 2020. James and Thomas jump behind the wheel to see what it's really like. Because at $240,000 CAD, it competes with some of the very best. Watch and enjoy. SUBSCRIBE!

      @derbigpr500 Před 4 lety +38

      People who put cereal into the bowl before milk are mentally challenged, and I don't care what anyone says, disagreeing with that statement automatically puts you into the mentally challenged category as well because you fail to accept something that is logically correct and objectively and subjectively superior.
      Putting milk first is superior in every way:
      1) You don't waste any cereal.
      2) You don't waste any milk.
      3) You add cereal as you eat it.
      4) The cereal you have in the bowl stays fresh and crispy, instead of going soggy because it was sitting in milk for 10 minutes.
      Putting cereal first has literally no advantage at all, there is absolutely not a single thing about it that is better. It's just one of those things ONLY americans do that is so obviously wrong , but for some reason they don't realize it and keep doing it, and on top of that, somehow got it to their heads that it's better. Same as using the imperial system for example. It's just ignorance, but I guess people like that don't deserve anything other than soggy cereal.

    I just LOVE how these guys focus on the driving part of a sports car and leave the creature-comforts and the tech as secondary. I mean seriously 80% of their reviews usually revolve around the driving part which I feel is miles more important than what colour the seats are

      @I Identify As Black Why wouldn't they not? That's the whole point of owning them all. The Bugatti engine is based on the Vr6. VW Engineers are genius. They found a way to cover the whole market from cheap to expensive and everything in between. They put the same displacement engines in a variety of their brands. But depending on the brand, you get more performance and quality. Like I said, The Bugatti engine derived from engines that started off in VW cars in '91. Yes, Higher performance VW parts are used across the board. They own Bugatti, Audi, Porche, Bentley, etc, not the other way around. You get what you pay for. I think it's genius.

And while I'm sure the 2020 model is an overall better car...it's not double the car; and therefore it's not worth over double the price

    All I ever wanted was a gated shifter in RWS spec 😢. Also not feeling this new gens styling and fake hood gap at all. Prior gen was gorgeous
    The edit to the Pagani wheels on the R8 was very cool. Looked great too
