Enjoy Bro!
Well the next new one will be the 6th and last episode of this season so they will just be re-runs starting next Sunday. And kind of hard to say that America doesnâ??t make any good cars when JC himself owns a Ford GT and Richard had a 69' Dodge Charger. Plus JC absolutely LOVED the new Focus calling it the PERFECT car for Britain!Quote:

They should leave all that shit off of it.
Also the Mustang is in this category, GREAT car for the price. The new SVT Cobra will be tits!
Can't make a Supecar I should have said! Look at the Corvette, WHY do the makers insist on making a supercar without Good Handling.
It's beyond belief!
The corvette is not and has never been a "SUPERCAR"!! Where on earth did you get the idea that it is a supercar? Look at the production numbers! It's is not a supercar at all. It is GM's top SPORTSCAR. And itâ??s kind of hard to say it doesnâ??t handle well considering it beat the 911 GT3 around their test track!! Keep in mind that is was just the 400 bhp BASE vette and not the new 500bhp Z06 that will be out this year!Quote:

http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/corvette_z06.asp - SO TITS and only about 35,000 pounds!!
http://www.rsportscars.com/foto/07/corvettez0606_07.jpg http://www.rsportscars.com/foto/07/corvettez0606_03.jpg - if you have a problem with a car that looks like that and has 500bhp all for around $65k USD... Then you have a few screws loose!! It's one of the best looking cars around! I cant wait to see the Top Gear track time for the Z06. It's going to piss a lot of people like you off!! LOL
TVR nailed the Corvette over Quarter Mile!
36.09 seconds Corvette
32.85 seconds TVR
Fair enough a Russian makes them now!
Corvettes are only happy going fast in a straight line!
Wait Iâ??m confused. You listed straight line times for the TVR and Vette. And then say the Vette is "only happy in a straight line" Did you miss that the BASE vette beat the TVR around the Top Gearâ??s test track? You know a track with turns?? I will list the hot lap timeâ??s link again for you - http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/powerlaps/Quote:

You are not making much since in your arguments.
I'm not gonna attempt to argue with you over this, coz you obviously know your stuff! All I was saying is that there is something with the Corvette that just doesn't seem to Cut it!
Wouldn't you love to know who the Stig is??????
What it is that you are trying to say is this - You hate the vette because it is a mass produced car that has some very cheap parts and quality aspects to it in comparison with all other cars in its performance category. And I am saying that is EXACTLY what makes it so great. It is very cheap yet it is just a monster! It is very fast in a straight line, around corners, at any test you want to put it through!Quote:

The fact that such a cheap, mass produced car will be faster (around a track, not just in a straight line) than a long list of true "supercars" that cost many, many time more!
And Yes I would love to know who the stig is!
P.S. I'm not sure if anyone has run the cars on the same track yet, but EVERYONE in the car world has already acknowledged that the 06 Z06 will be faster than the Ferrari F430.
