I Got Scammed Buying My Twin Turbo Audi R8, Bad Motor?! Clutches, Electrical Issues...

Remember people, if the deal seems too good to be true, that's probably because it is! This just means we are going to have to build this car sooner than expected.

If he’s not willing to split the cost to fix everything you should put him on blast! People like that won’t learn and will just end up doing it to another person who might not be financially stable as you are.

[@LextasyNation]

You’re right. His business has a 2 star rating for a reason

[@TheRustyCracker]

I would blast his dealership or sue

[@adamk1413]

Damn that sucks. Hopefully the old owner splits the costs

[@LextasyNation]

Doubt it honestly

[@TheRustyCracker]

Sue

[@timothypatton9592]

Finding those issues after you had it inspected really does suck! I may have missed it, but what happened to the black GTR?

[@LextasyNation]

GTR was having issues too. I was tired of fixing Them all the time

[@timothypatton9592]

@@LextasyNation that’s crazy, sorry to hear that! I’ll stay tuned in, hope you get a quality car soon bro!

[@moyltx]

You should send it out to sheepey once you're ready have Alex go over everything

[@LextasyNation]

I may have to

[@Reedgains]

Man this is sooooooooo painful. I’m sorry you had to go through this. I had my silver gtr the same time you got your red one now I’m moving to an r8 as well I hope you get it right

[@Reedgains]

Mannnnn the longer I watched this video the deeper I was cut. What state do you live in?

[@LextasyNation]

Thanks man! I’m in NC

[@Natak222]

Man it sucks when the good guys get skewed over like this. And the fact that you still didn’t expose the guy and his dealership says alot about your character. No doubt that’s why you’re successful in life and will continue to be brother. It’s a minor annoying setback but no doubt you’ll bounce back if you haven’t already 😎❤️ All the best

[@LextasyNation]

Thanks man! Literally on the way to the shop to install the new trans and back on the road she goes

[@HalfTorquedshorts]

We need to make a trip to SLC? I’m with you

[@BarnfindGT]

What a small world lol. I know this car he was looking to trade for a TT s550 or f150. I had messaged him about trading my 1500hp mustang (90k+ build) + cash on top but we couldn’t come to a deal we both liked lol

[@tritus131]

Looks like that car ran on the salt flats and all front facing surfaces are peppered. Sorry you had to go through that, if it costs over 100k I think it's worth flying out to look at things. Glad to see the videos back tho

[@LextasyNation]

Never thought about the salt flats and thank you!

[@jasonpatterson2143]

@@LextasyNation It was a rally car.

[@LextasyNation]

@@jasonpatterson2143 How do you know?

[@think1stproductions]

So messed up. You're a way better person than me lol I would put him on blast 24/7 😆 🤣. I look forward to the build Big Dawg..🤔🚫🧢🎬💯💪🏼😈🥶🚐☁️💀☠️🌮🎬🍔🌻🌻

[@LextasyNation]

Thanks man!

[@jaysonjay7852]

What do you do for work man? I mean no offense, no way you are making this type of money on YT - Just curious, whatever it is,. Good for you! keep em comin!

[@LextasyNation]

I make $50/month on KZbin lol. I own a few businesses

[@stephenpace2491]

Couple of things, I think you should totally reach out to vin wiki to tell this story, also I would ask that mutual friend if the guy you bought it from was a friend of the guys that “serviced” the car, maybe that’s why you got an all good text?

[@LextasyNation]

You never know man. You could be right

[@843idfa]

That's why you don't buy turbo, not used or even brand new.

[@xSchmitty360x]

Hate to see it man. Definitely shady and easily seen/caught issues. Hope to see you get it all straightened out 🙏

[@LextasyNation]

Thanks man!

[@AleksElistratov]

That sucks dude, people are shitty! On the bright side, what doesnt kill you, make you stronger!

[@TheRustyCracker]

That Audi badge is always a scam no matter what engine or car, sorry bro but I told you so….

[@juniorperez4107]

First of rusty that’s some shady you do buying cars from co part snd u scamming buyers so u deff know what he is dealing with smh

[@jasonpatterson2143]

Those center exhausts are trash. Now the plate is mounted on the diffuser.

[@StreetDrivenDaily]

WoW, what a nightmare, btw, you still own rs6 avant? if so what happened, why did you get rid of it? got bored fast?

[@LextasyNation]

I sold it when I found out the C8 RS6/RS7 engines tend to blow up even when they’re stock

[@StreetDrivenDaily]

@@LextasyNation thanks for being open! I was very close to pull a trigger to buy one! GOOD TO KNOW ! I was poking around to find some nice 4 door+compact car, maybe a new charger, widebody but i donno, I'm having fun with the GT-R still...... lol 79k miles on that badboy and 155k miles on the audi b7 rs4 lol! keep on grinding, wish you could upload more, its always fun to watch your videos!

[@LextasyNation]

Hellcats is the way to go since next year they’re done producing them. The rs6 are known to blow motors as low as 10-15m miles which is strange. Keep the GTR for sure bro! I’ll be uploading as much as my schedule allows me to. It’s freed up a bit so I should be back for a while.

[@ghst01]

For that amount of money.. You should have just bought a plane ticket and checked it out for your self. Never trust a seller or a shop you personally have never done business. All this could have been avoided with a $200 round trip ticket.

[@LextasyNation]

I completely agree. Haven’t been burned on a car purchase in a few years but definitely not going to trust anyone anymore whether PPI was done or not

[@dantem306]

Sorry you got it with all of these problems, you may be able to go after the company that said the car was perfect, or at least get them to do some work at a steep discount. Look at the bright side, you get to build this car exactly the way you want it now + you didn't have to pay for the snails. Stealerships will be Stealerships though :/

[@LextasyNation]

Thanks man and you’re right. There is always a bright side and I’m staying positive

[@DankAsian]

this is why you dont rush and dont buy a car sight unseen... you bought as is... not his fault imo

[@juniorperez4107]

More than likely the past owner knows it has misfire code and did a shady thing by tampering with computer . You clearly have money and should just buy a stock factory car

[@LextasyNation]

Factory is boring. I was looking for a TT car anyways

[@juniorperez4107]

You should contact him to make the situation right or u will expose him . But approach nice way without making seem to extortion vibes havaha

[@LextasyNation]

Id rather just be done with him honestly

[@juniorperez4107]

What is happening to you is the reason why it kills your love for modding cars .I rather build by racing skills stick shift and launching from a dig .

[@master74569]

Well that's the issue with buying an already modded car. You never know what your going to deal with and how soon it's going to happen. Even an honest person can't promise you everything will be okay. You could get it right when everything falls apart. Sheepy and Underground Racing always say, when you get a modified exotic, to take them to a shop that offers the same caliber of performance enhancements.

[@juniorperez4107]

⁠​⁠@@master74569didnt u read my comments shops also take your money ! I wouldn’t spend no money on a shop they don’t know what to do or installs ! The dealer which is certified to work on vettes couldn’t even install a factory trsnny back on smh their trash

[@juniorperez4107]

FYI these R8 were selling for 75k

[@LextasyNation]

$75?

[@juniorperez4107]

2008 models , just seen yours is newer

loved the vid… sorry about it…. keep us updated please good sir!!
