Youtube hearted comments of RJW14 (@RJW14).

  1. 360 horsepower, that's more than I expected it to have by about 140. Man, these engines sound phenomenal. Even the big straight sixes they made sounded badass. Also you got tiresqueal up into third, that's some torque.
    134
  2. Now this is the real deal. Gotta love how the rev needle just dances around as well.
    67
  3. Also man, I remember this vividly, accident waiting to happen. I was towing my race car with my camper van, doing like 85 km/h, driving along A VERY LONG on-ramp from a gas station. Car on the on ramp, I left them plenty of space (because duh, car should easily be going faster). What happens? Brake lights come on(like, SHE HAD THE SPACE!!!!), at the end of the onramp the old lady stops, opens the fucking door and sticks her head out into traffic to watch for a gap. I shit you not that lady is going to get someone killed and be all like "But I wasn't going fast, I wasn't dangerous".

  4. the headlights indicating charge are huge brain, now that I've seen it it makes so much sense I can't give any reason why I haven't seen it on another EV yet.

  5. that's the thing with these huge engines, they have torque everywhere.

  6. the local wildlife and forest management bodies drove unimogs when I was a kid, they were amazing. Fire dept had some too.

  7. Hella fun. I really miss being on track :( Hopefully by next year I'll have saved up enough to paint & mount my door and shake the car out of it's sleep. Gonna have to drain the fuel tank too before starting it.

  8. " It's a little floatey though". Bruh, I've had a 1979 ford camper (based on the big transit / small lorry they had at the time), THAT'S floaty. 🤣 This thing sounds amazing! What's the redline of that engine though? Hauls like mad.
    11
  9. Yes. This. This is what we've been waiting for since you said you rode along with him.

  10. golf courses are full of make pretends 😂I remember walking into a 2 star restaurant in my racing gear cause I was doing a charity event at the racetrack and didn't have time to change. All those people in their rented suits 👀👀👀👀👀 🤣🤣🤣

  11. honestly driving to racetracks with an RV is underrated. I miss my 79 ford camper (based on an F350).

  12. DAmn that car is wicked. Just wish it'd held the fuchs wheels.

  13. Old italians did some funky stuff. Then again old Swedes too. That rear hatch is such a crazy detail. That engine is audi-like front end man. That rev gauge! Just sitting somewhere and then it flies up to where ever 😂

  14. with understeer, people keep steering and/or brake. Like, if you are just on the edge of understeer you can generally just lift off the throttle and the nose will bite, or if you're already off throttle (like in mom's shitbox that just wants to go straight), you can open up the steering a tiny bit and feel the tires grip back up.

  15. yoooooooo that peugeot 205 and audi sport quattro 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  16. This thing is literally hilarious.

  17. again just listen to that v12 make revs. the engine itself is perfectly balanced and all the drama is coming from the intake and exhaust. For the record I hate this instrument cluster. Always have, always will. 🤣The one in the green one is much better. What does Xago stand for anyway? 👀Also video with Valentino Balboni when?

  18. gotta be an oldskool mini or a lotus sunbeam for me mate :) I've had my share of underpowered cars and I don't really want to do anything less than 40 horsepower.

  19. analog gauges > lcd dashboard. I legit hate that trend and will only accept it in cars that can rev or accelerate faster than an analog gauge can cope with. Also the only question with a G wagon that matters is: Will it off road?

  20. A friend of mine has a beefed up one of these with around 270 horses, that thing is pretty wild.

  21. oh man that cracked part. That's so sad really, I'd be like "are you serious" 😂 I remember being miffed when my new big brake rotor center caps didn't fit over my studs, but that was an easy fix. This however was just a dead part. E39 M5 will always remain the daddy of them all to me. The E34 is special too with that bigass straight 6 but the E39 is just like the E46, on that turning point of the century when old met new-ish. And it has that v8.

  22. you can actually HEAR the timing change. in my yaris t-sport you could feel it under half throttle but in this car you can actually hear it. Love these cars they're amazing on the B roads.

  23. "ordinary car" , it looks like a spaceship compared to european mid size hyundais. Also what is that rear leg room! Damn son! Definitely a selling point. It's a no nonsense good car, does it come without the computerscreen dashboard and / or cvt? (yes , I am that guy) And I'm going to agree with you on the legacy, I drove an older one cause I was interested in it (on paper it ticked all the boxes I had), but it was just not a good car to drive.

  24. that's a familiar blue porsche in the mirror.

  25. The E39 M5 is one of the quintessential powersaloons. That V8 and the RWD sales-representative type platform. Also LOL your wheels are in super condition compared to the ones on my ford :D I blame the first owner (I'm the third)

  26. 3400lbs? whut? that's around as much as my mondeo estate (2.5T) weighs. Daymn son. It does seem to track properly, even on the tires that are maybe a bit too soft for the situation. Also I see analog gauges, a lot of them.

  27. Wait Valentino was with you guys? You better have a video of that 👀 Also, the way these engines run is just magnificent. So smooth.
    2
  28. These are amazing, and proper quick too. I remember watching historic car races & these cars mopped the floor with anything, including Alfa 75 IMSA machines...... as long as the brakes lasted :P
    2
  29. Ah these things are great! When I was a kid someone 3 streets over had one in red. Exhaust note is insane, love how it reflects of cars passing you as well.
    2
  30. wait trucks are allowed to go the speed limit there? In europe they're limited to 87 km/h, just about 54 mph. 12:15 omfg yeah people who stop on on-ramps are literal killers. They will kill themselves and other motorists and have no idea because "I wasn't taking any risks, I was playing it safe." No, you ARE the risk. I believe I told you before of this old lady sticking her head out of her car into traffic behind me right? After I gave her space on the on ramp...

  31. My 79 ford camper had seatbelts like that on it's captain seats. Safety is... different in this era :) But man back in those days they could still make interiors, look at that thing!

  32. Hahaha oh man your comment at the end. I get looks when I drive my Mondeo and I'm just wearing my jeans and a t-shirt. When I'm in my office getup (loud and colorful button up shirt, jacket and slacks) nobody looks because suddenly I'm the accomplished businessman. But man, when I'm wearing a band shirt woooo boy. I must be in daddy's car.

  33.  @TedwardDrives  Very nice, as they damn well should :) Ex colleague of mine once had an old G wagon with the straight 6 diesel. Thing was a monster.

  34.  @TedwardDrives  Ah dude that sucks, that's how I can not get some volume pedals in the EU anymore because the potentiometer contains cadium.... in an enclosed circuit that it can't leak out of but yeah

  35. Honestly, I have a racecar (old E30's bmw) and I literally don't take it out if I don't have money to do that trackday AND have enough over to instantly replace my fridge + washing machine + road car at least. I just bought a new road car so I'm in the saving money phase :)

  36. Yikes, drilled rotors on a tank like that? Anyway, that cosworth engine! :D Came here from the tesla vid and THE NOISE!

  37.  @TedwardDrives  Ah yikes, that's what I hate about manual audis, the flywheel is at least 20 if not 30 percent overweight.

  38. I have for some 12-14 years now, there's always one or 2 out at Historic racing events and trackdays at Zandvoort... I live 15 minutes from the paddock ;)

  39.  @TedwardDrives  yeah you did after I wrote that lol.

  40. also at the end there's that nice Bizzarini there.

  41. I remember one of the few things we improved post build about our track bmw was the shift linkage. They'd cut one up and welded it together with a few spot welds.... when you're on the track you don't hold back so the spot welds tore. :) It's been properly welded now, it can probably pull the entire car.
