Might take a while to download but well worth it

Fuckin awesome

the front looks kinda like a Ferrari Modena
doesnt anyone else think so

That is a fucking sweet ass car.:thumbsup

stay tuned for more on this beast. its gonna be nice to see some custom jobs hit the market.

in the review they are right about the "whole plastic" interior though. US car companies like GM should really make the interior of higher quality.

That's a badass sexy ass mofo.

I think I just decided what Im going to buy :Graucho

yeah id be fun going around corners in that car. Making a 90degree turn while going 65mpg.

What a pompus Ass that host was. Did he actually say we don't have corners in America ?

I like the horsepower but I think the C5 looks better.

Top Gear is the most awesome television show ever made. They even have tested the Maybach on that circuit! There is a website with a shitload of movies of the show. Going to see if I can find them.

Ya he was an asshole. Hell they both were. The guy at the end was a real dick too.

yeah they always are like that. The slightest imperfection they complain about

yeah they were both assholes, but Id still take that over any of those other cars they raced

Koenigsegg on page 2
Maybach page 7

whoa thats a pretty cool website. thanks for the link

Fun site, the car is definantly worthy

the Koenigsegg is more on like the 7th page

Or they just updated it or it changes with every visit.

I am undecided about the corvette after watching that.

I always liked the Koenigsegg, very slick design.

dl right now... :Graucho :Graucho

all those guys were dicks, but the cars were amazing

Thanks for the link. The Lada that the Lotus team spent 1000 hours on was very cool once they finished it!

That was fucking awesome!

nice !!

Fucking limey prick...
Yellow teeth bastard

Awsome car...

LoL in that video they make comparison of the C6 "LeafSprings" to that of horse/chariot springs...the technology in that vette is not old, its completely new...youd be hard pressed to call them old technology...Hell im willing to bet that the damn driver in that car wasnt very skilled...Lets get an actual american driver over there...Somebody from C&D or One of Linginfelter's thugs....Then lets see the vette com in third and have messy lap...wont happen...

Compared to Britain, you don't. American "sports" cars are notorious the world over for being very fast in a straight line, but handling like shit if they encounter the slightest hint of a corner.

And the reason they seem to be constantly criticising everything is because, unlike US motoring journalists, they don't care if they might annoy the car companies. I subscribe to "Top Gear", "Car" and "Evo" from the UK, and "Car & Driver" and "Road & Track" from the US - in the past three years I have NEVER seen a bad review of a car in a US car magazine or on US television, and there have been plenty of bad cars...

Another site you might be interested in:

Plenty of episodes of Top Gear and Fifth Gear to download.

Looks like most of you don't understand British humor. Look at some more video's and take their comment with a grain of salt.

"but europe already has a porsche 911. it's called... a porsche 911."

he's the best part of top gear

and righthandman, i think anyone from lingenfelter would agree with the host...

americans suck at building cars. look at the luxury and performance you get from the same money elsewhere. even between a vette and an m3 (off the top of my head there's surely a better example) the vette has only a half a second better 0-60... but nearly twice the sized engine. plus the inside of a vette may as well be a cavalier with leather whereas the bmw is just gorgeous.

you've got to love classic muscle though. in that time, we had everyone beaten.

Just to make you poor Americans feel better, the price for the C6 Vette in the UK was quoted as £40,000.

That's about $72000. The base price of the C6 Vette in the US is $43,445...

Oh, and gas in the UK costs about $8 per gallon...

that's an truly awesome ride

nice ride for sure
wish i can test drive it one day:thumbsup

Yeah, I gotta admit I was laughing my ass of when he was doing his Darth Vader impression during his test drive of the Koenigsegg.

Thats a hot car.. it's been a while since I thought a corvette looked good too. :thumbsup

I loveeeee topgear.. great find:)

Woah pimp ass front ... really fucking nice

They compare corvettes with austin martins and ferraris ... I dunno lol

I agree. But they don't talk about the comparative price of a 'Vette to the other cars they're comparing. They are cheaper by a long shot. Especially in the States...which makes them a better value, even though some lower quality materials are used.

I like the older Vettes. Im not a big fan of anything they have come out with in a while

:thumbsup

Prices in the UK are:

TVR 350 - £40000
Vette C6 - £40000
Porsche 911 - £55000
Honda NSX - £60000

The NSX is nice but wayyy over priced. Plus it's a honda. :winkwink:

at first i've thought it's an mazda ... it really looks like one

another funny thing ...

it's such a great AMERICAN car ... but the plate in video is a german one :)
