Sell the Audi R8 and use the money for a special car to fully mod, please do not buy the BMW I8, it looks cool, but it doesn't do more than that. I think the fact that it has speakers to simulate/amplify the engine sound says enough.
Brian it can be much faster than his r8 with some pretty simple engine mods. And for the exhaust, remove the speaker and replace it with a real exhaust kit
James, you should save money fore a ff instead of spending the money on a i8, the i8 will loose its market value real fast, also it's dumb considering that it only has a 3 cylinder engine and it got speakers for exhaust note, its strait up dumb to buy an i8
Its already lost most of its value. They're now $65k for a pretty good example. It won't go lower than $40k in the next two years, so its not a bad car to buy right now.
but you can buy the bmw 2015 for a really good price;no more than $70k, and i guess that's enough! a really good choose for that price! What do you think?
I know this isn't in the price range of the cars you mentioned (well except the Focus RS), but have you thought about M2 comp or M4 CS? or even the M5 which is definitely worthy of a mention here. I think they would work out well for you James. Well except the exhaust sound that is.
you should get a Tesla Model S P100D because it's fully electric and can go 0-100 km/h in 2.7 seconds (0-60 MPH in 2.4 seconds). besides being fast, it does not pollute the environment (this is my opinion). #ElectricPower!
Maybe look into the Lotus Evora 400 as your 2+2 (yes, they can come new in manual) and tell Burlacher to get a Ford Mustang GT or the new Bullitt Mustang.
The most obvious candidate for Nick or a 2+2 is a GTR. I know a lot of people have them. Tanner, Roman. But you will be so happy with it. Best bang for the buck, and you can get them for under 50k. Put some $ in them and take them to a drag strip.
A Mercedes would be awesome maybe a GLC 250 you can drive it like the Jeep and its super comfortable it drives so smoothly it feels like a new road in a economy car but better
Adam Houston Don’t make me jealous, in my opinion the two best hot hatch backs of all time are the focus RS and the 14 WRXSTI they are both gone now😭😭😭
Levi Bush hey I know someone who owns them they have 707 horsepower,literal like one trillion pounds of tourqe,(lol it just has a lot of of torque)depending on the kit it ranges from 70,000-100,000k

So professional man respect you so much, thanks for making this video for us man~ I'm from HK as well so sad that you could only stay for 24 hours. Maybe next time who knows?
Rajveer Dhillon Uhhh what exotic isn’t reliable ? It’s pretty reliable compared to other if you ask me and a M6 can last even longer with more power. I8 issues do Vary like the display on the i8 would go out in hot temperature
@@aidenp5768 bmw is the most unreliable brand on the market. Older bmw's were better than the ones they make now. Also, they depreciate the quickest. My buddy bought a 6 series in 2017 for 120k brand new and the dealer offered him 86k after 2 months.
Rajveer Dhillon I hate when people who have never owned a modern BMW claims there the most unreliable, Land Rover, Mercedes and Chrysler products are worse.. VW is even worse. I own modern BMWs and I can tell you they’re fine. As a BMW guy I can tell you that BMWs from 2002-2013 N63 V8s, N62, and any V12 from BMWs from that time period are not good for over 100k miles. Modern BMWs ??? You can’t call them unreliable, irrelevant claim and stop letting people like Scotty Kilmer tell you other wise and people don’t even drive BMWs in Texas so I doubt he actually works on exotic cars. Modern BMWs aren’t even old enough yet to say other wise as well. Stop the BS, us BMW owners look at the comments and don’t even bother but people like me need address it. Get your facts straight guys like.. wtf are you guys talking about
@@Benjamin_Boxall ik but the exhaust still make loud sounds from outside just not as loud as the speakers I have one and I can show you what I mean so if you where to straight pipe it it would sound just as loud as a normal super car
It's time to represent the Jeep Community man. Get a Hellcat motor swap for your Jeep, add a lift, 40 inch tires and freak people out. Nah, you should get a V-TECH, or Mazda Miata, or a Nissan Skyline. 😭😭🤣🤣 Actually, you should get a Prius and then modify it to be a sleeper. Then prank and Troll people. Lol Or just do a Hellcat conversion to your Jeep. Imagine 800HP to your Jeep.
Why are so many people saying not to get an i8? So what, it has a 3 cylinder, but it definitely isn’t slow. Plus, there relatively cheap so there might be leftover money to do engine mods, possibly a swap. Everyone saying not to get an i8, have you ever been in one? Its not slow. It’s not meant to be compared to super cars, because it isn’t one. James, if you want to get an i8, please go ahead, because everyone telling you not to get one have no experience whatsoever with that kind of car. Your welcome bmw fanboys.
If you plan on V8 or V10 swapping it and also putting some sort of aero kit on it then definitely do it but other than that it’s a bit to dreary and would just be a massive step down from the r8 which in comparison actually has a soul.
There's nothing cool about a Ford Focus RS. They're geared towards people who can't pay the $60k-220k for a hatch/wagon/shooting brake from MB, BMW, or Porsche. (MB G-class coupe, MB AMG GT 4-door coupé, Porsche Panamera Sport Tourismo, BMW 3-Series Gran Tourismo (GT), or BMW X4/X6 coupé.) People who call cars like the Focus RS, a "hot hatch" are theeee wooorrrst. They want a "hot hatch" just because it's a hipster/trendy vehicle type.
As much as I myself would like an RS and love seeing them. I thinking sitting next to the Lambos it will look out of place and will be slow. I think you are past that level of car.
Honestly you should get your hand on a sti or a Evo both are affordable leaving you plenty of money for mods it being awd would be great for the snow and road trips
Sell the Audi R8 and use the money for a special car to fully mod, please do not buy the BMW I8, it looks cool, but it doesn't do more than that. I think the fact that it has speakers to simulate/amplify the engine sound says enough.
He needs a Urus!
Brian he should sell r8 and use it to buy the house /warehouse or just the house .
Brian it can be much faster than his r8 with some pretty simple engine mods.
And for the exhaust, remove the speaker and replace it with a real exhaust kit
The i8 would be a downgrade, 3 cylinder hybrid? No thanks 😂

James, Don't buy an i8.. get a 997 Porsche turbo!
A newer 992 has the most attractive tail lights tho :)
Please no! Stradman not an i8!😩
Take normal 8 series instead
It would have to be a Highly modded I8 maybe adding over 100hp
Corey IVI just asking why?
Yeah I agree with Taps and others. No BMW i8. Sorry.
Eewww i8 it looks more ugly than a prius
Get a new Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo or Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe

True but at least it looks nice 🤣🤣 should’ve been a tt V8

Big multi cylinder powerful engines while you still can please, within 20 years all the fun will be over.

As there is nothing like a V12 Ferrari
Except a V12 Lamborghini, both are fantastic and a dying breed
I totally concur my guy!!!
No one tried a v14
Nah v16 I prefer
V12 Astons are the shit too, the NA ones
Trading a R8 for a I8
is like trading a whole chocolate bar for a half chocolate bar.
you get me
more like half a chocolate bar for no chocolate bar lmao

Have you ever thought about getting a 2017 Audi R8?
He hasn't i think actually
Screw the new audi r8 I like the older look
Dude, same
The newer ones are so nice.
It's pretty much just an older r8 with all those edgy Lamborghini genes. It looks kinda cool, but, ya know...
No way! You gotta save towards that FF James!
Maybe look into the Lotus Evora 400 as your 2+2 (yes, they can come new in manual) and tell Burlacher to get a Ford Mustang GT or the new Bullitt Mustang.
Don't put the bar on the aventador

Irshaad Shaikh the i8 is stupid not good electric range and very under powered it’s not great at anything but looking cool to non car people
Victor I agree, ofc it’d be underpowered it’s a “supercar” with a 3 cylinder hybrid

Ever thought about replaing the R8 with either a Jaguar XKRS or a 911 Turbo S ? Jaguar has 550bhp , 5.0L V8 Supercharged.
Like so he can see
Or a bmw M5 the new one.
If you buy a Focus RS you'll absolutely love the performance but the ride quality suffers a lot.. I absolutely love mine
