i don't know why they had to compare against a sedan, why not a proper supercar like a koenigsegg ccx or a bugatti veyron or something.

so maybe you can see the difference between a fast sedan and a f1 car?

would it make more sense to compare the fastest road cars with the fastest race cars?

(ps 5th gear is s***, top gear for life)

I assume that since its a BMW F1 team, BMW would have required that the other car be a BMW for advertising...

hey, nothing wrong with fifth gear. seen one of the latest eps where they build racecars out of reliant robins? That was awesomely funny carnage.

edit: ie. this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clMQKoRMN0I

Thanks for that Reverend :) I appreciate shizzle like that hehe. I guess what they were trying to do is have a big wank at how good their m5 is against an f1 car ..... i like my bmw's but their marketing department is pretty 'wanky'

top gear is such an awesome show, the work and effort they put in and the stunts they pull are incredible - but it's definitely not a show you watch to actually find out about the cars they feature

Finding out like, with a view to choosing between the Koenigsegg or the Bugatti, right?

If you want car reviews go to your local car salesman.

That was s***. 102mph average? Wy put someone who can't drive in a comparison like that? If you want a real comparison, put two good drivers in the cars.

what if they were both on a treadmill ?

It's called a dynomometer you tard.

fifth gear builds reliant robin racecars
top gear drives to the north pole

top gear builds reliant robin rockets - which actually take off.

no

find out, as in learn about how the vehicle actually performs - not hear jeremy clarkson, richard hammond or james may make comments on the vehicles that you simply can't pay any real attention to due to the clear bias they exhibit. don't get me wrong - I think the way they do that is very entertaining and I am a big fan of the show, but you just cannot listen to anything they say about a car unless you know they are quoting actual stats or specs. so many of the comments they make about vehicles are complete and utter fiction


If you want car reviews go to your local car salesman.
haha... right

no, I'll defer to a review source that I feel is more objective

Sorry, I forget that sarcasm doesn't come over very well in text. Perhaps I should have put the /sarcasm tag at the end to spell it out more clearly?

Yes you're right Jim, it's more about entertainment than facts. But hey, it's damn entertaining :) TG special is btw out and is a highly recommended watch :)

For entertainment value, Top Gear is waaay better than 5th Gear
Its amusing, interesting and funny... surprising as hell in a show about Cars :P

As to bias or not, who cares!
Every single person who reviews has an agenda or bias inherent in their opinion, u just have to accept that premise and work from there to establish your own considered opinions :)

Because he's acting like an utter dick lately. All he does is insults others in rather harsh terms, and quips smart-ass remarks.
