Was the P1 not enough!
Fr
He’s still got 36 months worth of car content just sitting in his shop. It’ll never end
Never enough
Nothing is enough, kinda
That's what I'm saying
A million dollar project on his hands, yet Freddy buys more broken cars, loving it.
In fairness, he bought the R8 way before the P1.
Technically he traded for it + cash which he desperately needs for the P1
I seem to remember this taking place way before he bought the P-1.
E: The purchase, that is.
He needs more money to fund the P1
That's what I was thinking, guy is a machine! What a guy!
what a project! looking forward to see which lucky subscriber gets the car
@@thedaredevil1907The person running the account possibly?
Can you stop forcing so many damn ads?
Yooo thanks for commenting youtube
@RUclips Knows what's good! Keep up the great work @Tavarish
ive never seen youtube themselves leave a comment. Wow
Love your optimism and comedy when making your videos. You and your friends have good chemistry. Can’t wait to see how this one comes out, if anyone can make this work it’s you guys.
Your Doug Demuro impression was spot on 🤣
😂😂😂facts
I had to rewind it many times to make sure it was him. Lmao
time?
Dougvarish
THIS.... worked.
There was an R8 V12 TDi concept car back in the day, it was essentially production-ready yet never saw production. But the engine found its way into a Q7. You should be the one to reunite the two, now that you have one piece of the puzzle.
Call the project "diesel gate"
@@dgurevich1 "Deez-elz nutz"
How you're going shoehorn a V12 from a FE Q7 into a ME R8 will be a challenge of itself, unless you have the build specs of that concept.
@@Sonny_McMacssonlmfao!
It wasn't production ready, Clarkson tested it and was told not to push it as the gearbox was out of an a4 or something and basically wasn't strong enough
i love these videos. im not a big car guy but i love seeing the engineering and mechanical work to make something have life again
Love the content that you’re putting out! Love the cars you’re showing off! Keep up the amazing work!
The R8 is an absolute piece of art. The aftermarket rear wing was a horrible decision.
Someone was thinking they're living inside NFS World 😂😂😂
I like the rear wing tbh!
I agree makes the car look riced
@@asbuster2191it looks good but It isn't executed properly
The stock wing is FUGLY, r8s NEED a good wing.
It needed a splitter and side skirts as well to actually look good with the wing they chose though
Edit: and they needed to remove the stock wing. Why the fuck is the stock wing still there
It does my heart well to see you smile again @Tavarish. You really seem to be finding your joy again
What are you talking about?
@@AB-80X his divorce
@@lsuman8883 Tavarish has not been divorced.
@@AB-80Xyeah he did a video
It warms my heart remembering, that Tyler's worthless "Village Bicycle" that he married, got that trashed R8 for Christmas. 😆😂🤣
It's so good to see your projects come to life :) keep up the good work
Can't wait to watch this one! You got me hooked on the P1 and now the build of an R8. Awesome!
Nobody punishes Tavarish like Tavarish. 😂❤
He says yes daddy
This should be on a friggin T-shirt, LMAO!!! 🤣🤣🤣 👍🏻😎👍🏻
It isn't punishment; it's a business model.
That is deff a t shirt 😂😂
Jack is actually inspiring. A dude that knows his stuff.
But damn does he have the "like" disease when talking. Like a 13-year old school girl... from two years ago.
@@timkinley1779 hey leave my dawg jack alone, thats my dawg from middle school
Jack could be a twin of John Shepherd of sheptrans. Lol
@@timkinley1779 so basically a 15 year old school girl
@@____-gy5mq Saying "like" twice per sentence, was rampant two-years ago. Most grew out of it after realizing how they sounded. Similar to using "amazing" to unoriginaly describe something that isn't.
Love your content and this will be an amazing build to see progress through the next few episodes!
I love your approach to challenges! There is no mountain to high, and everything is fixable.
I'm starting to think these broken cars are a reflection of his soul.
Ohhh oooooohhhh don't say it. You're not wrong but don't say it out loud
It's a reflection of OUR souls, we are the ones watching this beautiful disaster.
He is the restorer of the car's soul.
We crave that.
The opposite maybe. He is such a gifted person to show love to these beauties and brink'em to life again❤
That's messed up.
You're Right and it's simply your POV.. Just as the comment is the reflection of your own soul...
Tavarish, you would not believe the vicarious enjoyment everyone gets from watching your videos, making impossible builds and fixing deserving cars. Keep up the great work!!!👍👍👍
I discoverd your channel just a few weeks ago and I was hooked. I watched pretty much every video of you and I am every single time excited when you release a new one. I really hope you keep on makin videos ;D
Great to see you smile and work on these again Tavarish, Audi R8 was my childhood dream car when it came out and to this day it still looks fresh
Thank you for what you do. Keeping these cars from the junkyard is really a great idea. I would love to have such a sweet ride. Good luck to the person that gets it.
It is my drem car😊😅
Yes! Was excited to see Hoovie buy an Audi and was bummed that he and Wizard never got it running. When the Vanquish to R8 trade happened with you I knew there was a glimmer of hope for it still. So happy to see it getting some attention!
Really looking forward to see this R8 getting the Tavarish touch, once again another lucky car will be saved. Love the videos and content Freddy, so glad to see you getting back to your original self, remember, Wrench every day 😊
These videos hit so different, can't wait to see how this and the P1 turn out! Always thought this version of the R8 was gorgeous
I love your commitment to making quality videos that the basic enthusiast can relate to.
Thank you very much Freddie for emboldening me to do things that others think is stupid or not worth the effort.
Big up!
Long time car enthusiast here. I love the time and effort your sharing with everyone on doing this. Love seeing skills Put to work! Your doing a phenomal job at it! Good luck to the winner!
I always love to watch your project cars and Im so happy you managed to find an R8, I’ve always loved the R8 and it is easily my dream car. It will be really cool to watch you clean it up and give it away to a very very lucky person.
keep going...love your projects...jst waiting to see who is the lucky person going to get this car
I usually try and skip the ads. But Caramel seems great. I will definitely use this the next time I buy a car
Same. Been hesitant to buy a car on Cars and Bids (if there was a lien), but Caramel might be a good option for these.
Same🎉!
Hey Tavarish wanted to let you know that you have made a change in my life. Had a rough time for a while until I discovered you, your content makes me enjoy cars like never before. Keep up the great content💪💪
Water, Whole Food, Weed, Excercise and Wrenching keep the doctor away
Wow, thank you
@@tavarish That Doug de Muro intro is awesome! ))
Don't lose your passion. Glad to see you repair cars and get them into great shape again. 👍🏻
I really needed that please been watching you the boys working on the p1 and also still waiting to see the next post of it ❤❤❤❤❤
I applaud you for your patience and vision with each project.
Tavarish is just doing side quests while he gets the P1 parts 😂.
Love the optimism you bring into your videos. I would rather have a car rebuilt from you than a new one any day!
Love the content you have been putting out a real car guy !!
Looks like an awesome project Freddy, glad to see you able to up the number of videos you put out, hope this indicates an upturn in your fortunes 😊
If anyone can bring a car back to life it's you. I absolutely can't wait for each episode. Keep challenging the notion of impossible!
Can't believe you're taking this on with the P1 still in progress. Love and respect your tenacity!
That ending got me real excited! Great content, loving the videos
Last 10 seconds of the video got me thinking "This car might actually be fun to drive when its done" . You are doing good by this car converting it into what it was always meant to be
now we are at another level, P1 and R8. l cant wait to see these two beasts back on the road. Thanks for keeping me inspired man, l learnt to have hope in every situation
Started following with the P1, what a projects you take on man!
Awesome to see someone make a living loving what you do. Congratulations hard work paying off 🤙👊💪🏽
Seeing Freddy with the "Save the Manuals" shirt, leaning over the R Tronic shifter is humorous in itself!
I know a ton about the R8 being a previous owner. The seats come from the TT ( as are a lot of the interior bits, disappointingly ) and they do wear like what is seen in the video really fast. I had to have mine replaced in the 1st year under warranty for excessive wear. Jack is dead on about the paint, the R8 has some of the most meticulously done paint in the industry. The entire process is quite involved and the results are very good. Remember, these cars are all hand built in the Nekarsulm factory and the people that build these are all veteran Audi techs, not just some randos to fill space on a production line. When you are having one built, you can actually track what phase of production it's in and they can tell you who the last person to touch it was. You alluding to the R8 taking "a while" to reach its top speed is absolutely false. Especially on the V10 like I had. (which was the same Daytona Grey as the V10 at the end)
The bright side is you should be able to get half decent replacements fairly cheap
the mk1 v8 takes more than a minute to reach 186mph so if it ever gets to 190 its going to be a pretty long wait
Somebody's triggered lol
@@skoparweaver7692: Somebody's totally misinterpreted the comment.
Keep your head high. Keep the videos coming, love them.
It's nice to see your news projects! Big hug from Portugal!
I love what you do and your straight forward honestly. The r8 is definitely my dream car . Just not in my reach yet but you give me motivation to keep pushing to my dreams . While being a technical trainer and teaching students to follow theres. Keep up the great videos and and show people if you work hard you can reach your dreams . Thanks Man for these videos
Jack so brings another level of enjoyment to the channel. Thank you Jack
Love your videos and can’t wait to see how this car turns out. The P1 is looking good with the new carbon fiber shell. I would definitely love to be an owner of a r8
Rad project, looking forward to watching the series.
Love what you do Tavarish! Even with the cost of other projects, you still find time to work on other cars to give away to your fans. This is why your channel is one of my favorite car channels that I have remained subscribed to for the longest. Also, that Audi R8 is a beautiful car, wish I could afford one
easy and plane worthship of the chanel culd not said(wrote) it better, cred thomas.
I’m real psyched to see where you take this project! Best of luck with it!
I’d say the real test when it’s finished is to race it against the Vanquish you traded it for, give Hoovie a taste of what the car could’ve been like.
I love watching these videos they are awesome thank u keep up the great work
YOUR INTRO music totally sets the VIDEO up,, I love it
Excited to see what you do with it. I love the videos sometimes I wish you went a little more in depth with the actual builds even if it means longer videos.
I’m exited to see what comes out from this project. I would love to go for a spin when this project comes out. Blessings men 🙏🏽
Great video - can’t wait to see what becomes of the V-10 beast!
One of my dream cars! Excited to see this get repaired! Hope to see this on the road in south Florida one day
The amount of Doug Demuro in the beginning was awesome 😂😂
Best channel ever, You're fearless when it comes to these project cars! Keep doing what you do. Jay from north jersey
OMG! So stoked for this build!
Keep up the awesome work! Cant wait to see more!!
So happy to hear you say at the end how you're going to make it a bit more spicy 😁 Had the V10 in my D3 S8 & was beautiful every time I drove & opened her up 😍 R8 is my absolute dream car & looking forward to this build even more than the P1
I love what you guys do! Having an Audi R8 that Tavarish restored would be AWSOME!! Semper Fi!
Can't wait to see the rest of the video wish this car was mine! Keep doing great videos 📹 for the world 🌎 to 👀 see
Cool project!! Looks awesome that u made it work! Happy to subscribe
Looking forward to this build. The P1, though monumental (if you pull that off), will take a long time to get going. This R8 will be easier. If Samcrac fixed one, you can be sure Freddie and Jack can get this running like you can race it.
Today's sponsor sounds amazing. Honestly such an incredible new service. First full ad I actually wanted to watch and use in the future!
I'm not even in America, so its no use to me, but it looks like a good service.
Thought the same thing!
Here comes the "amazing"s.
Sweet fancy Moses! Looking forward to this series!
One of best RUclipsrs i have ever seen. Keep it up. Love to see you posting daily ❤
Wow, can’t believe someone would let a car like that deteriorate as bad as that is. New to your channel. Been wrenching for 35 years and am jealous you get to do what you do.
he's worked his ass off to get where he is today
Love your videos keep up the great work
Glad to see you working on this!
Wow Freddy. I can't wait to see you turn this beautiful car into a priceless dream car. It has been my dream car since I can remember. I appreciate what you do. I watch all your videos and everytime you always deliver. Lots of luv my brother. Take it sleezy🤙🏼
Sounds like a computer issue and since the engine was swapped that would make sense. Would love to see a modified V10 dropped in.
Omg no pls. The v8 in this car is awesome and fairly underrated, these ones are rarer than the v10 variant
putting the 5.2 V10 in is not just a drop in. its going to be a project unless he's going to use the car at the end as a donor. the side blades and some of the rear substructure is all different from the 4.8 V8 model. Thats just for starters.
@@timoarrg yeah, I'd keep the V8 and supercharge it.
@@richardharrold9736 that would be insanely awesome
He dropped a v10 in it. Look at the ending of the video.
The R8 has always been a dream car of mine. During the pandemic these were a steal for $40k. Prices have skyrocketed since. Excited for this build!
Don't worry, during the recession they will drop again, just hold your horses.
Had me hooked and then sent me at the end! Can't wait to see this car saved!
You cliff hanging, S.O.B..!! I'm hooked!!!!
This is one of the most beautiful cars of all time truly timeless.
You fr? 😂 It looks good but I wouldn't say it's "one of the most beautiful cars of all time"
@@btuttle8let the human have a pinion
Looking forward to seeing how this build goes and all the shenanigans that will come along the way 😂
I'm so psyched for this !!
Amazing positive energy on this channel.😀
One of these days you’re gonna buy something expensive and appreciate everything you’ve accomplished. Good job man, best of luck with the P1
I’d say a wrecked p1 for over 500k is buying something expensive lol
Just wanted to start by saying how much my husband and I love both of your RUclips channels. We found your channel through ed bolian’s vinwiki channel and subsequent cartrek series. We were watching the pebble beach/Monterey car week cartreck episode, since we have lived in Monterey for 20 years, was pretty cool to see. You guys were parked in front of the Monterey plaza hotel and then it hit me. I know that guy! You were in your beautiful blue McLaren, as I was walking by you said “Hi, how are you doing?” I said hello, I’m ok, beautiful car! Maybe you remember? I thought you were Vin diesel!( now to my husbands great amusement) I was in a tough spot at that point in my life, living basically hand to mouth, looking scruffy and dirty and wearing a big backpack. My husband was stuck down in LA working for LA county fire dept. at the time, so things were pretty tough. I thought how some big shot(you) was kind enough to take the time to say hello to someone who looked so down and disheveled.
Funnily enough, I was on my to try and save this 2002 Audi TT quattro turbo that a friend had given me, with no keys I may add. As my love of cars is lifelong( first car was a 72 Charger 440 r/t that my dad and I rebuilt out of a junkyard) I walked every free day I had to try and get this car going. When we finally had enough money to get a new key made by Audi, 400$+, Monterey had towed the car and we were pretty much shit outta luck.
The Audi R8 has been a dream car for me since I first saw one driving through pebble beach. When I tried to describe it to my husband(another life long car but-he went to art academy of San Francisco for automotive design and engineering) he was so frustrated about not knowing what I described to him! He finally figured out it was the R8 after we saw a new TTrs and I said that it looked like the TT’s big brother.
Any way I saw your true character and the person you are after watching the pimp my ride van videos you gave your babysitter. I hope to be considered for your R8 giveaway, we’d give it a great home and garage and will be loved and cherished for the rest of its days! But just to know you remembered saying hi to me in Monterey would bring a smile to my face. You have two endearing fans for life, keep up the good work and wrench everyday!
Yours truly
Shirley ❤
This girl deserves the R8!
Keep up the great work Freddy!
How do you have time for another project?! Love this!
This is going to be a great series. I love these cars. Audi R8's are one of my favorites. Great choice for a give away!
The P1 couldn’t stop him from keeping the projects alive for other builds! Insane that we’ll be seeing a V10 in an R8!
U know that V10 was in the R8 from factory, right? Just not in this one.
@@monix3864 Yeah that was kinda short-sighted comment by him
I feel like Jack has more fun tearing it up than Tarvish giving away the car 😂😂😂😂
good luck with the project!! i know it'll turn out amazing
I’ve been watching you for roughly around 8 months now and you have motivated me to want to be successful and watching your videos encourages me a lot. Keep up the great content ! 🔥
I remember seeing my first R8 in 2007. I thought they were the coolest car that Audi ever did and it became a game to try to find them. I would love to have a car like that, even with all those headaches as it sits. Can't wait to see the finished product
I still think that's the best looking r8 they've done since
RS5 all the way
Sad to see my absolute dreamcar in such shape but glad someone is rebuilding it to its former glory! I wish you all the best on this and the other projects!
Greetings from the #1 R8 fanboy lol
this is awesome! excited for this one!
Oh poor thing. It should have been taken care of much better. I'm happy you're reviving it. Thank u
Can’t wait to see this built next! Whoever gets the r8 when it’s done it will be a enjoyable car to drive!
For the first 10k miles if it makes it that far, then it's gonna start breaking, then all that fun will evaporate like your bank account...
Looking forward to seeing how this car turns out!
I had a feeling this R8 would end up in Tavarish's hands.
I’m pretty sure hoovie straight up said he sold it to Freddy
This is such a sad state for this car to be in. I’m excited to see this restoration!
