I love everything that Audi have added to the 2nd Generation R8.

[@fnnnknorth]

By far the best description of the Audi R8 I've ever watch. Lots of detail and organized description.

Awesome ride and I really like the wheel choice too! Good review. I pretty your speaking pace on this one. Some of the others sounds like you're in a hurry. Keep doing your thing Pony.

[@toshmarley72]

wow!What a beautiful monster.Thanx again

[@lancevercitty]

Okay so I've seen a gazillion reviews of every hybrid/hyper sports car but I've to say your review was very much better . Good narrative voice . Not a lengthy video . Enough even for a noob to understand. Keep it up

[@goldpony]

+icallofdutywithyourwifeinthekitchen Thanks, appreciate it!

[@lancevercitty]

Gold Pony I'm curious if you have drove the Porsche 918 spyder . I'm a porsche fan boy. Maybe if possible you can do a review on that too ?

[@goldpony]

icallofdutywithyourwifeinthekitchen If I find it definitely! I have a Porsche dealer I usually work with so its definitely possible if they get one in.

[@dylanr.7713]

BEST REVIEW OF THE AUDI R8. CONGRATS FROM PERU. I AM ADDING TO YOUR CHANNEL.

[@goldpony]

+Ubícame.com.pe Thanks! 😁

[@ZalmaiPashtun]

Great review of an impressive car

[@HEATWAVEKICKS]

Quick question. how do you ask dealers to review the cars? I'm trying to start doing reviews but not having good luck with dealers in my area. Nice review!

[@michaellui74]

great review as always👍👍love the enthusiasm. would you buy this r8 or Mclaren 570??

[@goldpony]

+Michael Lui 2017 R8 definitely for the performance!

[@c6rocks]

Fantastic review, as always.

[@goldpony]

[@joshdavis7311]

Looks so damn beautiful! Great review!

[@goldpony]

+Just Joshing Thanks!

[@rxbg1]

Important question: I have one one order and am thinking about the race seats like those. How did they feel? Lots of car mags have panned them for being really uncomfortable, especially around the shoulders. How did they feel to you? Pease be specific. Thanks.

[@goldpony]

+rxbg1 I can't compare them to the standard seats but I will say as fast as the R8 is I was a fan of the bolstering. I didn't find them uncomfortable but I will say that was only a 20ish minute drive though.

[@SpieleVZ]

good work

[@goldpony]

+ZzzCreeper Thanks!

[@trixiie126]

Feels absolutely gooodddddd!

[@RO5CO3dude]

dream car forevs

[@ryankeck9154]

My dream car!!!

[@BeastiT-km9pn]

dream car 😍😍

[@biljancanin]

So why are these cars called 2017 R8 or 2017 GTR when it is not even close to 2017. Or is it just in the US like that because here in Europe they are 2016 R8 and 2017 GTR etc...

[@corbelius6]

Oh yeah Audi Knocked it out of the park in my opinion.

[@rwalton65]

I have to have one!

[@GeekTherapyRadio]

If I ever bought an R8, I'd probably sleep next to it in the garage for a few nights.

[@coureurdebois]

still weird how the last gen R8 almost looks more modern or as modern, But people are going to praise it because the price tag and the year is new... the exterior design is simply lacking in this new one... the interior though is a huge improvement.

[@goldpony]

+justin bouche I definitely agree on the interior... Now it's Maserati's turn to fix their interior on the Gran Turismo!

[@MrFOBH]

excellent video

[@goldpony]

+Feisal Al-Haddad Thanks, appreciate it!

[@grampajacks2677]

What does your friend do for a living to afford these cars?

[@tmat04]

Gold Pony Do your think it looks better than the previous R8 model? At first I didn't like the new design that much. But it grew on me, rapidly. And, now, I think it looks even better than the previous model. I'd even take it over the Huracan. Gr8 video!

[@goldpony]

tmat04 When you see it up close it looks amazing and once you hit the gas you don't care anymore about how it looks b/c the acceleration puts you in a different world!

[@Digitorian]

sick review bud! good job

[@goldpony]

+Digitorian Thanks!

[@TWHISPERER]

How come cars can increase HP by a lot or in this case 100 hp and only increase 0-60 by three tenths of a second?

[@dieseldota2122]

Very nice review, thumbs up.

[@goldpony]

Thanks!

[@swagman2861]

Nice car!

[@Blessingdenuga]

Really well done. Gained a new subscriber

[@goldpony]

+Blessingdenuga Thanks, appreciate it!

[@samplechicken]

Did this example come with any carbon fiber?

[@Anthfigueroa]

Did you not watch the video?

[@samplechicken]

It was sarcasm lol

[@ramtinsahafi3069]

Only if you're a moron you can't

[@sean636]

I sensed it pretty easily...

[@RtB68]

spell it properly you ass

[@Yukkuri_Dark_Net]

R8 and NSX are almost same prices. I think R8 is better than that.

[@domi4307]

amazing video!

[@goldpony]

Thanks!

[@haroutkanem7]

Does anyone know the name of the soundtrack at the beginning? It would be much appreciated!

[@justrandomthings319]

I like how much slower you were talking in this one. Must better than when you talk fast.

[@jakedeschamps4454]

So, which of you was it that stole Prince Noctis' car?

[@Sam-te6np]

Jake Deschamps lol

[@danlee3055]

Dat 0-60 ...Does anyone know if US customers have the option to spec their R8 with racing bucket seats? Also since i cannot afford the r8 i really really hope the new TT RS make their way to US shores sooner than later

[@iracecarthings1016]

Those seats are the race buckets for USA And TT RS is supposed to be coming soon to Europe. Hope they bring to USA as well. jalopnik.com/2017-audi-tt-rs-five-cylinders-of-fury-and-400-horsepo-1772806333

[@gamingkevin2107]

iRacecar Things it came out already in England in Europe

[@marcus11b]

do they still come in V8?

[@iansoderlund3539]

I would take this over a huracan any day of the week.

[@_SKDK_]

I like em both lol. The r8 is more lax, it's looks aren't aggressive but it still means business. The huracan is more agro and can be made to look way more aggressive. The way I see it is the r8 is a daily car at heart, but can throw down if need be. The lambo is a brawler at heart, but can tone it down when needed. Even though they both have the same engine/chassis of course.

[@TheUglySlug666]

The Audi is faster too.

[@iansoderlund3539]

***** Yes, but I'm making the comparison because they ride on the same platform and share the same v10. I would take either in a heartbeat, but I think the audi is the far more sensible option.

[@_SKDK_]

+Ian Soderlund just depends on if your the type of person who prefers luxury or sport. Performance aside since they're the same car on that stand point. For that money though a lambo will always turn more heads

[@_SKDK_]

+Chris Manzino its 199, and the audi is 190. For 9k more, you'll go from "I drive an r8." "whats that?" to "I drive a lambo" "holy shit! "

[@InTheNow2020]

new R8 seems to be not getting the deserved respect and attention of a McLaren or even Porsche.... 2nd generation is one heck of a machine... 🚗

[@jesusadorno9873]

does it have a touch screen pad?

[@jerryvux]

does this car has lifting system ?

[@l-vinotrading4450]

That's what I call a review! :D

[@goldpony]

Thanks!

[@sulemansarikus1106]

perfect!!

[@LazySevy]

is your habd shaking?

[@umermughal1217]

bhai cars ko dekhne main kia harj hai?

[@MrAnshul70701]

plz do a comparison between amg gts and r8 2017....???

[@goldpony]

+Anshul Choudhary Would love to! I will definitely be reviewing the 2017 GT S once I find one!

[@sebastianvazquez6187]

I know its not an easy deccision so im watching this to wait 20 years until i can afford it 😂😂

[@tinsanis5875]

nice video:nice quality video..nice voice interesting info,,,,i like...

[@goldpony]

+tinsanis tinsanis Thanks, appreciate it!

[@elliotjames158]

great review! personally I would get the lp580-2 instead of r8

[@elliotjames158]

but I would get the Audi for a daily supercar

[@elliotjames158]

SLuG I know, but the r8 is easier to live with, for example it has got better visibility and ground clearance

[@MAGApepe]

J Roc baby

[@JohnSmith-wf6fp]

What sort of interior is it

[@Mr.Hashira]

which would you get a lamborghini gallardo 2010-2014 or the 2017 gtr or this car?

[@goldpony]

+KINGWOOZY PRODUCTIONS If I had the money probably this one... I've seen 0-60 runs at 2.6sec for this car and interior quality is the best in my opinion of those three... Although the GT-R would be the best bang for your buck of course

[@Mr.Hashira]

Gold Pony​ man I was afraid of hearing that because I wanted thr gallardo but I don't like buying used cars so I was stuck between the gtr or the audi r8 but damn man

[@ankushgupta1926]

+KINGWOOZY PRODUCTIONS 2017 Lamborghini Huracan or 2017 Audi R8?

[@Mr.Hashira]

+INelson2018 what about gtr and audi r8

[@iracecarthings1016]

+KINGWOOZY PRODUCTIONS depends a lot what u value in a car. What do u have now? If u want speed and tunability then Gtr. If u want luxury and exotic feel and sound then this. Gallardos, especially the years you've mentioned, cannot be compared to these newer cars interior wise and maybe even performance wise.

[@ramon2737]

First vid I watched from you, I think I am going to subscribe

[@goldpony]

+Ramon Awesome! Thanks!

[@simranbhasin9900]

Looking at these cars when u can't afford Mann it really hurts.... 😳😓

[@redriver15262]

Exhaust button looks like Glasses LOL 🕶

[@goldpony]

+Ernesto Ortega R Ha! Yea I guess I can SEE that...Pun!

[@atsocal1797]

German quality 💯

[@nexplosedu3375]

I like

[@PorscheGTRSWeissach]

we have 2016! so it's a 2016 audi r8 plus! ;-)

[@britishpeopleyellowteeth6071]

all those saying audi is better than nissan well dont forget the audi is the luxury of a Volkswagen which is not that great but this audi r8 and audi q7 are my dreamcar 😍😍 but lets admit the gtr doesn't do bad for a 3.7 it actually beat the previous generation of r8 v10

[@rumandutta1892]

awsoom I love Audi r8 2017 very much 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😀😀😉😉😉😉

[@jjayallan]

MPGs???

[@JohnSmith-wf6fp]

Is this a Audi R8 plus

[@goldpony]

+Sam Firth correct! 👍

[@Troymatti]

why AWD ?

[@nangningbatik2028]

nice

[@robertrich190]

I would take this over a Porsche 911turbo s same price great super car for the money

[@ericfeng6711]

Robert Rich who the hell wouldn't?? The porsches, although nice looking, are rather bland and have looked the same for over 30 years. And people complain that Audi's design doesn't change??

[@promisetochi]

I don't want a car with an interior like a race car's cos I've never been in a race car. Just make it feel luxurious.

[@gabrielyves1]

Djmondo21 well said u have to visualize it and then make it happen

[@DevajnK]

Ofcourse x)

[@joshmaitie5954]

that's insane 3.5 secounds

[@cryptic8630]

Zo6 2.8 seconds 0-60

[@connorstahl249]

As an american car fan, I will say that although they claim the Z06 at 2.6, most tests are running around 2.8-2.9 with proper setup. Aka expensive tires and perfect conditions. Also, loads of people have new C7s and hard to tell the difference between a base model and a Z06 from a distance. I find the new vette's to be cheap and plastic like because they are mass produced. IMO v10 plus > Z06 even though it might lose in a quarter mile

[@mitchgriffin1314]

I hope they put vents in the hood

[@shunm1149]

cool

[@MaltheHave]

Nice video but why dont you talk in the footage*?

[@goldpony]

+Malthe Have Musaeus I usually do but just didn't have the right angles on this one unfortunately...
