Mamma gettin' those groceries!

[@XeroXay]

ThatDudeinBlue i want one of those cars so bad tbh

[@XeroXay]

holy first!

[@ricosav9tm586]

ThatDudeinBlue can you review a bentayga

[@Keegan_Lynch]

ThatDudeinBlue this things sick

[@moonshine8250]

ThatDudeinBlue bring me football momma blue🙋

[@nilshagstrom]

The 3.0 Supercharged is SUPER reliable as well!

[@baselvisions33]

Getting a notification about a Thatdudeinblue video while watching another Thatdudeinblue video.. hmmm... choices

[@rickd8979]

Basil Almasri I feel you man. Was watching his Focus RS review (nice one btw) and below it I had this as a recommendation. Decisions decisions..

[@baselvisions33]

Derrick Harvey hahaha yeah

[@Anterlt]

I really like seeing Euro cars being reviewed on your channel as I'm a euro guy from Europe. It's something near and dear to my heart.

[@98dwgevo]

My wife just picked one of these up last Fall ('17 SQ5), I find myself stealing it often! I'll get her talked into the pulley/tune/intake/exhaust before too long!

[@Alex-tv3jy]

Moto Crane my mom has one it's a fun thing to drive, would definitely need a bit of modifications but it's a solid car

[@ltsjoke5443]

hell man, I wouldnt be surprised if your wife beat you to it haha

[@98dwgevo]

She thinks about it in too much of a German manner, the power and exhaust is "adequate" in her words. But adequate means reliability, and who wants that!?

[@llevine6388]

@@98dwgevo did you end up modding it?

[@98dwgevo]

@@llevine6388 yeah upper and lower pulleys, intake, exhaust, H&R Coilovers, ecu tune, and trans tune.

[@asar1]

Love these unique car reviews

[@ThatDudeinBlue]

Asar Ahmad thanks dude!

[@mattsteelephoto]

Do some exterior clips! Fly-by's, pull-aways, would love to hear these cars from the outside

[@Banana-fk8wb]

pumping these out so quickly love it

[@togmedia1488]

I really like the RSQ3

[@jayboogie8973]

That high pitch voice at 1:25 is great!

[@short0811]

Another great video from @thatdudeinblue Keep up the good work without all the hate and drama I have begun to find in other car review channels. Very well done David.

[@amaansayed5687]

Proud owner of an SQ5

[@mupetier]

I'm curious on wheels, tires , offset etc. the 295s look absolutely incredible. very aggressive and imposing.

[@deanaveyard]

He never replied.

[@antoniolovell667]

That supercharger whine tho 😍

[@alexanderardelean5001]

You should try a V8 R8 i would like to see what you think of it

[@dans8680]

Alexander Ardelean no v10+

[@tornut24]

Audi Is the best No silly because only the V8 comes in manual.

[@oscarlainz]

+YepItsTommy there is a v10 6mt

[@-Sirens-]

Just saw an SQ5 yesterday and thought it looked cool af so this video was perfect. Keep up the awesome videos david!

[@JT-rx9nh]

"The Volkswagen Umbrella has no bounds" well put.

[@kern417]

I went to a track day sponsored by our local Porche Club of America chapter and somebody brought a Macan that was surprisingly doing really well.

[@limulus61]

I picked up my Macan GTS at the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta. I drove one of their Macan GTSs on the course with an instructor and yes, they are quite capable. I was surprised and happy. I'll have mine at VIR in Sept for a few laps.

[@Chase_Schrader]

IMO this would be a perfect daily!

[@0726cobrasrule]

Wow, I love those shifts! Very fast and gear ratios are set well to keep the revs up! very cool.

[@Gausdave213]

Man your content is out of this world!

[@kwillee93]

Good stuff David, really look forward to your vids during the week

[@M3gekje]

Another amazing video David!!

[@DailySquadProductions]

There are quite a few crossovers and SUV's that can be track cars. I turned my Outback 3.6R into a canyon car/track car. I have a few videos about it on my channel, including a review, and I plan on doing another review since I've beefed up the suspension a lot recently. I'd love for you to drive it if you ever come out to Southern California, david! I met you at SEMA with my friend Jake at the KZbinr panel by the way. You might remember us.

[@abdelhameedbarqawi2907]

The definition of a daily everything car .. spacious fast nice design and reliable 👌🏻

[@aldenino2019]

Abdelhameed Barqawi reliable?

[@quentonmillstid850]

Al Denino can you read?

[@abdelhameedbarqawi2907]

Al Denino yea whats wrong with that bro ? We've owned an A6 and didnt have any major problems with it except for minor stuff such as sunroof mechanism , other than that the car performed just fine for 4 years and in my opinion thats a reliable car 👍🏻

[@iDrive4fun93]

Abdelhameed Barqawi same, had an A4 Quattro, way outlasted 2 of my Acuras. Most reliable car I have ever owned, and I have owned a lot of cars lol.

[@M3NACE]

SUV's are just to heavy to be an effective track weapon. sure, you can track it and have fun with it, and it does look cool, but after all the suspension upgrades and engine tuning, dont get mad when a 1.8 NA laps quicker.

[@gadgetguy99]

M3NACE Also depends on the driver. I have seen 1.6 na miatas overtaking cars with far more power

[@peaceandlove8984]

@@gadgetguy99 The best racing mod is weight , cant trim much fat off the 4500 lbs Audi :D

[@Bmr4life]

It's a single vehicle answer. You get to track and daily a comfortable large vehicle versus a stripped 1.8 NA.

[@pbranham3508]

I don't think anybody buying a qs5 is trying to break records. A awd 450hp sleek suv is amazing for anybody with a fam. 450 being duel pulley tune and other minor mods.

[@jonsered8159]

Find a Ford Escort Cosworth or a Sierra Cosworth to review. That would be awesome!

[@Turshin]

Tobias Bjorkelid none of those in the states

[@manowar5516]

turshin Yes there is.

[@Turshin]

Where are they. I need a Mk. 2 escort with a "couzzy"

[@tutuiooscar]

I have this car is amazing, worth every cent.

[@staggeredhorizons3657]

Who remembers that awesome bagged SQ5 David reviewed a while back?! Great Review David!

[@hangooksaram123]

That whine.... I can listen to it all day

[@reginovaladez]

Wish there was some drive by shots of the car. Thatdudeinblue disappoints again

[@nanoahreloco]

David you should daily one of these,you look good in one

[@spooky066]

When the kids are late for soccer practice

[@bisterousmusic2738]

I have a Bagged Audi A1 S-Line and love it to bits 🚗

[@kevinkepler5671]

Awesome video! I have the same car, same color. I have so far added 034 motorsports engine transmission street mounts, KW adjustable coil-overs, 034 strut mounts, and an Integrated Engineering Cold Air Intake with carbon fiber cover. I am going to add an intercooler next before going with 034 Stage 1 ECU and 034 Stage 2 TCU tune. Also 034 or ECS billet drivetrain inserts. I love my car and may do Sway bars down the road among other upgrades. Such a fun all around=d car to own and drive! I love it!! Favorite car!!

[@ogfromutube9649]

Buddy of mine has a 16 SQ5 and wants to do the 034 motorsports upgrades. Pulley, tune, suspension etc. Still maintains reliability fairly well? Definitely noticable improvement over stock?

[@hellasikness8958]

Family car goals Af.! come to Orlando and Drive my modified Yaris lol

[@d.m.messick]

On my 3rd Audi...EPL stg2 (dual pulley) Q5 s-line. Some suspension mods, best Audi yet!

[@mikenice1204]

David Messick how's the tranny like the dual pulley? I have epl stage 2 on my sq5. I had dual pulley on my 6mt s4 and the stock clutch didn't like it.

[@d.m.messick]

Mike Thompson ...just to be clear, this is my 3rd Audi (B7,B8 A4’s) now a Q5 and my 1st EPL tune. I absolutely love it...super torque all through the power band witch is huge.

[@joshfrost7939]

Hahaha "that's just the dashcam, don't worry about that" sounds like the old need for speed radar detector!

[@kyleminissale3318]

These are one of my favorite vehicles just because of how capable they are in every way

[@TrebolN54]

Wow the us SQ5 has a supercharged v6 petrol. Here in europe we've got a twinturbo v6 diesel. Greetings from Austria

[@metalslug26]

My wife has 2017 SQ5 and its a blast to drive. I got a 2018 B9 S4 recently and that's way funner to drive 😁😁😁😁. Both are great cars.

[@maxrudy8830]

Stock sq5 brakes are pretty massive so idk about that part but 🤣🤣

[@BarbellsBurnouts]

Love the reviews bro keep them coming!

[@jaybee7650]

Hey dude in blue please send me a playlist, you got the best intro music.

[@myleswillis7157]

Hey David, keep up the good work!

[@Kevmyster]

Are you going to review Adam Lz S15 when it's done?!?

[@shona5512]

Kevmyster Probably not unless it's on the track. Adam isn't registering it so it can't be taken on the road.

[@Kevmyster]

Shona Hopefully David can review it on a track

[@Ethan007Hacks]

didn't look too hard and i thought you were having a convo with yourself bc +Shona has a similar pic lmao

[@james4v261]

Shona he could register it no prob in florida. its so free in florida

[@Repavich]

no he cant... its not 20 years old. Damn importing laws

[@davidnuxoll7074]

Just came across this vid, have the same suspension setup, H&Rs and Bilsteins with my 2014 SQ5, only a couple in metro ATL

[@Sebbe40]

You need more credit for using different songs in every intro. The success is in the details!

[@mikey_fixed]

I have an SQ5 with KW height adjusting springs and new Pirelli tires. Thing is a menace! I can pass all the rice boys I see

[@atillander470]

Would be cool to see you review a X6M and compare it to these SQ5's!

[@dawiepieterse9703]

Funny how we (south Africa) get a 3.0 TDI SQ5 and you guys get the 3.0 s/c...although the diesel has a ton of torque this sounds awesome

[@JF-ns5zs]

Love the sq5 would love to lower one and make it a fast wagon

[@ScottPC]

Weird! SQ5 here in Europe is a V6 Biturbo TDI!

[@mcflurryXD96]

My friend has an '06 A4 with the 2.0T, and the same with the whole not feeling like you're going fast applies. I'll look down and i'm doing 20 over the speed limit and i'm like oh my god.

[@driftcannon6415]

That supercharger whine sounded just like the Charger/Challenger Hellcat with the twin clutch 8-Speed. :P.

[@realtywithseankemp9704]

My chick just got the 2018 sq5 up from her 2017 s3. Pretty nice car if I don't say so myself. Nothing like my c63 haha but still very nice and the new upgraded v6 turbo is really going to tune nicely. So much more potential the. The sq5 that was a v6 supercharged like this one

[@samsagar]

Another quality video from Mr. Patterson 👌

[@RS13516]

A major reason why I'm into cars you are the best man!

[@xatzmike]

I don't comment much on your videos, but these quiet car reviews where you aren't shouting are great and much less tiring

[@Daggermouth8k]

i love the paint job!

[@jorgemedrano4227]

i knew this audi look familiar. i was the one that installed the dash cam that wont stop beeping lol.

[@suhailsayed01]

Can you try and review a Forester at some stage?

[@armo2125]

HEY DAVID!! AWESOME VIDEOS!!🔥

[@tristanmemmons]

5:00 That G force though.

[@WildWildWeasel]

That SQ sounds mighty fine.

[@PrimalFlexing]

I drive the 2012 S4 with the supercharger. been looking to sell the S4 and pick up one of these. just need some more space with the same power almost.

[@dorsch250]

Hey, you should come to Germany to review a diesel SQ5, i'd love to see your opinion on diesel power!

[@matthewbailey8588]

these audi's are beautiful man 💙💙💙. i'd really like to get one someday

[@Lysol_kb]

yo you should do a review of that one stanced Honda Odyssey that makes crazy boost

[@anilagarwal480]

that's why i like that dude in blue

[@FiveCurmudgeon9]

I can so relatd to this! My uncle has a Q3 and I have a mk1 miata and you feel like youre going really slow in the Q3 where as I feel like I go quite fast in my miata

[@TheV8Pumpkin]

I'd love to see more "track" focused SUVs :D they still handle better than hellcats

[@luciantruscott8528]

ID on that jacket? lol

[@ReplicantBattyman]

Looks like its hoonigan from the badge. their stock runs out really quickly tho

[@danieljordannicol9937]

My next car is going to be a 2011 s4 cannot wait!

[@seanslocum3752]

Good morning, does watching the ads all the way through benefit you more?

[@MoisesLegend]

Thinklikemo . Let's goo , do what you gotta do to survive

[@747Jumbo1]

Don't know what it is about these SQ5's, but they just make me drool...

[@airmendj]

DUDE!!!! Thats what i'm getting next! AUDI over everything

[@zaktulipano4171]

In Australia we only get the Diesel SQ5

[@VisualAnalog]

This is my favorite suv in the market

[@ThemReaper5]

[@perma4671]

[@joshwittenburg4225]

Of course it can. It's german lol.

[@tomassviridovas7504]

[@boyracer6479]

In short yes.

[@andyreed4960]

You should do a b5s4!

[@jakewarren9465]

Dunno if this is in the comments, in Australia sq5 is a diesel v6.

[@toohoodrichg]

I really want David to review an E46 ZHP...

[@roroguapo3]

Congrats on 700k! 707k to be exact.

[@cromulentparty]

These are diesel in Australia.

[@pktalks7930]

Awesome!

[@goldyyz7000]
