I used to work at the same Audi dealership, I also helped load your r8 engine into the ole rampage very unique truck! I took delivery of the 2nd or 3rd RSQ8 we got our hands on. Amazing car but the price to power ration is pretty extreme. The luxury is definitely there, massage heated seats that could make you fall asleep and an audio system that sounds like your in a movie theater. Very cool video I hope to see more in the future.
The windows are also variable speed up and down. If you use the switches @ 20% depressed, it makes the window go slow and the further you push the switch down the faster the window goes down.
I have said since the RSQ8 came out that it is the much better buy than the Urus. But on either if it breaks you better have a 2nd mortgage ready. Especially if the electronics go in the dash.
My best pal bought a 22 one of these last year & it's a beast,of course he voided the warranty by having it tuned which in itself was a task for the tuner but it transformed it,720 bhp 1000nm,I've driven a lot of cars in my life & nothing compares to it for the money.
I grew up as a huge car kid and I have vivid memories pf the first time I drove a Q8 in 2017. I remember walking away thinking it was the nicest car I had ever driven. By that time I had driven Ferraris lambos Roles you name it. I drove a rsq8 recently and it still feels better than everything
Another video said it, and I'm in agreement. American cars are usually named after something, like an animal or something. But European cars are usually named like printers. RSQ8 honestly sounds like it should be copying, collating, and faxing, not doing 0 to 60.
Definitely in the sell before warranty runs out and don't buy if it has. So much to go wrong and given it's an Audi it certainly will and will cost a fortune to fix.
In south Florida, "aspiring" hip hop stars all want a Lamborghini Urus. And they wreck them left and right! In south Florida, "mature" women all want Audi Q8's. And they don't wreck them left and right..... Great video!
The turn signals are indeed cool. Audi drivers could use them more often. Seems like they're usually too busy tailgating people to worry about lights. And no offense to the few that don't drive like that. :)
What? No dinner with the show? LOL This thing is beyond sic! I never say that...that's how cool it is! But it's not making me give up my daily....Lexus RX350. Why? Of course...I can't afford it...even if I could, I can't justify the cost....guess I'm just cheap. Well Lexus cheap, not Audi cheap. Haha.
I like the car reviews you do, cool that the dealer let's you drive and review them. I'm sure the exposure doesn't hurt their business and you get to play with cool toys and we get to ride along👍
They know he has a few 100k in the bank. He can drive anything he wants. When I built F150s the Ford dealer down the road at Vivian and North Oak would give me anything I wanted for the weekend. Eventually I would buy something. Easy sell. Just get out of my way and let me fall in love HAHAHA...
The more tech used in todays vehicles the more I miss my old Dodge 1/2 ton with a 4 speed and slant 6, couldn’t kill it with a sledgehammer and as simple as a rock!
Was thinking the same thing...I don't want to sound like an old man but here it goes. First, I love this car , I also own a 2019 Lexus so I'm not afraid of the tech. I truly believe these cars are only designed for the first and second owners...maybe the third person gets lucky but after that it will become way too expensive to maintain and off the the junkyard it goes. You wont see these in 20 years.
@@tsgorman Yep, so much needlessly electrified stuff to go wrong. Every time I open my rear hatch I say, "Open the pod bay doors Hal. I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that."
I did enjoy this video, even though my budget for a car was €6000, so I'm driving a 2012 Dacia Lodgy. 😂😜😁 It has wind up windows and no central locking. 👍
I love the BLACK Audi logo. I can't justify doubling the price for the same vehicle. I'd take that over to German Motor Works and see if Jonny could make this thing even faster! :D
Given their rally history, and the fact that it's literally a German car..I think this car is much more appropriate with an Audi badge over Lamborghini.
I've been hating on the Q8 since it was released. I just a wagon instead of stupid crossovers. There was and RS Q8 in front of me this morning and I found myself admiring it.
Brakes... I was thinking, "jeez, that's a pizza plate!" No sooner did that thought complete in my head, and Jake pipes up with "it's a pizza!" Great minds think alike. 🤣
in germany, it is required to have the triangle. they do not include it in north america as it is not required. you can order one for yourself if you want one.
Changing the oil is pretty easy on this, the plastic covers the airbox, which is on top of the engine. The doors are soft-open also, so you don't need to fully pull the door handle for the door to open. That towbar is atrocious, there is a factory towbar that folds up under the bumper. It is beyond me why you get one in the US, where you have to hack in your carbon fiber defusor
Only question though, are these new top tier cars just like a Playstation, only good for a couple of years? Enjoy and trade, what do you buy to last 20 years that is enjoyable today for reasonable money, a TRD Camry? I mean as a one car garage, a family friendly cost effective daily.
I must say, only the first sentence in your title was visible in my notification and I thought whoa! Did he buy a messed-up Lamborghini to fix? That would be awesome even if it is the Uru SUV and not an Aventador. 😔
urus goes 190mph (305km/h) top speed and the RSQ8 goes 155mph (249km/h) urus goes 0-62mph (0-100km/h) in 3.6 sec and the RSQ8 in 3.8 sec urus wins for sure and defo in top speed
This is the smart version , the Urus is the hot boy version , and Bentley makes the overweight luxury version . Personally I think the Audi version looks the best , and costs the least = win win 👍
i'm trying to think how would you justify buying one of these, i mean, is heavy, so it probably won't gonna do well on the brake and tires if you take it to a track day, is an suv but it doesn't have much ground clearance so i imagine you gonna do expensive damage if you where to take it off road, is awd so it can launch hard but then again, is heavy, so i wouldn't expect it to do well on the drag strip. it would be cool if audi where to give it some long travel suspension and fancy bypass shocks so it could go to ensenada, kinda like the raptor, but otherwhise, is a cool toy, but how do you play with it?

“All the letters and all the numbers, so you know its the good one”
they never said that about 245T
Or get a used Cayenne Turbo for a fraction of the price.

It's called Urus not Uris.
@@segredosdotiosam9989 Thanks Grammer police. My phone changed it.
@@WildDigger lol. Grammar not Grammer.
@@segredosdotiosam9989 D-bag troll you are. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 And I did that one on purpose.
Ive see used RSQ8's from 2021 all day for around $118k. So a good deal to pick one up at that price.
Yes thats true, fully loaded Vorsprung too.

Bravo, again enjoy your car reviews. I am a huge fan of Audi, love the Q3 and Q5 like the A4-A6 totally unappreciated
Another video said it, and I'm in agreement. American cars are usually named after something, like an animal or something. But European cars are usually named like printers. RSQ8 honestly sounds like it should be copying, collating, and faxing, not doing 0 to 60.
Mclaren usually name their car with microwave ovens model number 😂
Well. Since the first computer printer was invented in 1968 and the first European car in 1886, maybe printers are named after European cars ;-)
1:20 hit a deer and the car is written off just on the cost of carbon fibre alone
Definitely in the sell before warranty runs out and don't buy if it has. So much to go wrong and given it's an Audi it certainly will and will cost a fortune to fix.
Absolute beast. Love my SQ5 but that thing is on another universe.
Since you are a fan of audio systems in vehicles, have you laughed about Jeep having a McIntosh Audio System?
I LOVE the McIntosh graphics on the screen but I haven’t heard the system yet. I sure hope it’s amazing 🔊
"It's got all the letters and all the numbers, so you know it's the good one." Or, in coder-speak, "Look how many monitors I have."
I used to run 6 monitors at work… I think it made me less productive trying to move my head all the time 😳
more understated Urus, but still a beast! I would like to see a comparison to the RS6 Avant - love the looks of that wagon
In south Florida, "aspiring" hip hop stars all want a Lamborghini Urus. And they wreck them left and right!
In south Florida, "mature" women all want Audi Q8's. And they don't wreck them left and right.....
Great video!
That Audi is beastly as hell!! That blue sets it off
The blacked out grille & logo sells it for sure. Slick as hell.

What about all the "quirks and features".....
@@Flies2FLL oh and the score . I’ll give it a 2 out of 5 because it’s one of the best
Ever made .
JR: check out this awesome 6 figure SUV!
Me: thats a nice c5 Z06 in the background!
That’s the one I just gave away… made plenty of videos on it 🍻
It’s more VW than Lambo. Definitely a vehicle you do not want to own past the warranty period. I’ve never regretted not buying an Audi.
Urus is more vw than Lambo too
Cool SUV, I like the Cayenne Turbo GT the most though
Not really related, but I also like the Trackhawk more

It has wind up windows and no central locking. 👍
I've loved your channel for years. If you're going to keep shooting video in that shop, I'd kill for some detail on the red C1 in the background.
Check out Elliot Alvis channel!
It’s Elliot Alvis’s Dads car, you can find out about it in his Chanel.
wonder what the car ninja would say if JR took it to his shop
I run a lot of stuff by for him to check out, they love all the new cars 💯
25:05 I like that it plays the Song of Time for you, that's a nice touch!
Don’t think there will be any millions mile Audis in the future
There aren't any in the past either... 😂
I love the BLACK Audi logo. I can't justify doubling the price for the same vehicle. I'd take that over to German Motor Works and see if Jonny could make this thing even faster! :D
The ninja would make it eat veyron's for breakfast
You can, its all just software
@@icyblu9836 That's why they call him the Car Ninja. He knows how to make EVERYTHING fast. :D

Keep my 2010 Toyota Sequoia best sub ever 300k no problems oil and brakes,150 gr8 for that and 7gs a year maintenance
I hope JR gets a shop soon, watching 30 min. car commercials every week is getting old.
I hope Walser is paying well at least!
I agree.
Walser doesn’t pay me, these are the cars I actually enjoy and they just let me take them for reviews 🍻
have an Audi A8L and a new RS5 love them both... like your videos too
You're a lucky person. Drove an a8L with the TDI V8 in it. Surreally nice car.
You said it JR! The RSQ8 is 🤌🏻
I've been hating on the Q8 since it was released. I just a wagon instead of stupid crossovers. There was and RS Q8 in front of me this morning and I found myself admiring it.
I am assuming it is tunes because it was puffing some black smoke when the driver punched it.
I fell in love with this model the first time I laid eyes on it in person. Its an absolutely stunning vehicle. Inside and out.
I have no wish to own a car I’m too afraid to drive. Too unaffordable to fix.
I geek out on the camera mirrors we have here in Europe. It looks so cool
Thank you for this calm, relaxing video. It has kicked my insomnia in the butt and now I can go to sleep...
You be living in a box when that thing starts fall in apart
Brake rotor temp?? You cant even get those on trains! 🤑
I was trying to think of anything else with a brake pyrometer… I know there is one other car but I can’t think of it 😬
Hey.
Definitely a nice looking vehicle. 👍🏻
VINFAST VF 9👍
VF 9👍
My only question coming out of this video - was Audi messing around?
Brakes... I was thinking, "jeez, that's a pizza plate!" No sooner did that thought complete in my head, and Jake pipes up with "it's a pizza!" Great minds think alike. 🤣
I feel like these are big commercials for the dealership. I’m hoping JR is making DeMuro kind of money doing these 😊
crazy insane prices, and I thought my '23 jeep compass I just ordered was expensive at $38K, but this Audi is $160K
Your Jeep will be WAY more reliable! Enjoy!
@@christinesommerfeld9815 nah. Jeep Compass are not real Jeeps. They are FIAT platforms with Chrisler engines.
Rumor has it, it will automatically schedule service appointments every 1,100 miles.
They are VERY COOL!!! :) Nice RSQ8!!!!
in germany, it is required to have the triangle. they do not include it in north america as it is not required. you can order one for yourself if you want one.
I don’t like the faulty dash. It pixelates the faster you go
My G35 has a cassette and 6 disc in-dash cd chsnger. I guess I'm out of date but I'm also out of debt.
The Corrado of the 1990’s matured into the Q8 of the 2020’s.
Styling is very similar to me.
"Third brake light in the spoiler!"
Just like the Murano I had!
All the carbon, still weighing almost 5000lbs
J.R., you REALLY need to get another shop. Your content is getting thin. Now you are doing Doug Demuro.
Doug Demuro is the goat… wastes zero money but makes $3 million a year. 🔥
Changing the oil is pretty easy on this, the plastic covers the airbox, which is on top of the engine.
The doors are soft-open also, so you don't need to fully pull the door handle for the door to open.
That towbar is atrocious, there is a factory towbar that folds up under the bumper. It is beyond me why you get one in the US, where you have to hack in your carbon fiber defusor
This is 1000X cooler than a 120K 6,000 lbs hummer electric POS with crab walk
that car looks sweet but the price number 1 and number 2 the 8.6 mpg displayed on the dash had me say no thanks haha.
The trunk went ah-ah and all of a sudden
Four fifteen's didn't see no wires
And then I heard (boom!) from the amplifiers
Now you don’t even see the subs… it’s all hidden and it pounds 🔊
It looks really good 🤘🏽🔥
Literally one of these pulled up next to me at the car wash last night in the vacuum bay.
In 10 years, on watch JR go. “ here with have this Audi with over 1000 error codes, can we fix it?”
Audi really put ashtrays in the back?! 😂 Surely it's a charger or something...
they are lit!
All the noises including that awesome interior rattle!
That’s 100Percent Jake’s spine.
Talk about it again after 100+ k miles.
That’s incredible
Forgot to mention the Porsche version, the Cayenne Turbo and Turbo S
Bring back “Watch JR Mow”

Good Blue... Blue is the best color for cars. Blue... ;)
You can never get those brakes up to temp in the street, more for show than go.
If there was ever a car in automotive history that screamed "Buy the extended warranty!" JR just reviewed it.
5 years from now, I bought the cheapest RSQ8 in the USA. It cost me only 2.3 million dollars to repair it.
I think having an alcantara steering wheel would be nice on this car.
I must say, only the first sentence in your title was visible in my notification and I thought whoa! Did he buy a messed-up Lamborghini to fix? That would be awesome even if it is the Uru SUV and not an Aventador. 😔
SICK!!!
looks like an Aztec to me
urus goes 190mph (305km/h) top speed and the RSQ8 goes 155mph (249km/h)
urus goes 0-62mph (0-100km/h) in 3.6 sec and the RSQ8 in 3.8 sec
urus wins for sure and defo in top speed
the backs of the exterior audi logos weren't backlit.. I'm canceling my order lol
Stevie Wonder can tell you this doesn't look better than a Lamborghini.
It looks just as bad IMO lol
Okay but is it better than a 2023 Cadillac Escalade V though? 🤨💭
LOL! 3:39 100PercentJake - That's a good pizza.
This is the smart version , the Urus is the hot boy version , and Bentley makes the overweight luxury version . Personally I think the Audi version looks the best , and costs the least = win win 👍
I think the grill is a bit too big for the car
You can just wait to get it cheaper when they crash them due to those distracting touch screens. Man no physical buttons just sucks.
Casual C1 Corvette in the background...
Lol it’s a financial bomb. In ten years time that £150k box will be worth 15-20k and a brake job will write the car off.
That shade of blue really pops. Such a nice color.
I like it looks good for an SUV. That is a sweet SUV, I definitely would get one.
I like the look of the VW Atlas cross sport the 1/8 price Lambo urus
The word button has t’s. Please work on pronunciation. Love your videos man!
