Prince of Wales,

Anyone have the rest of this episode of fifth gear? Can't find it on youtube

woob 06-13-2009 07:09 PM

I have it. First ep of 5th gear that I went and downloaded. Waste of my ratio... It's tres boring.

The first time I saw Top Gear I was all "cool beans" or laughing at their shit. But after watching this Fifth Gear, I felt like I needed an insulin shot. Nothing can come near Clarkson, Hammond and May.

EDIT: found it on mininova - http://www.mininova.org/tor/2666994

Well given than an old c4s is able to keep up with the old r8 , it def needed some more power.

ilvtofu 06-13-2009 08:21 PM

Isn't R8 more of a 997 GT3 speed? ^ are you talking about 996 C4S cos I doubt thats true.

c2s.

I still doubt a 996 C2S is faster than an R8, I clearly have a thing for porsches and despise the R8, but no way a 320? hp Porsche can beat a 420hp mid engined R8, now a 997 C2S is more like it, but even then http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NS4qGAfdArU

i know r8 is a nice car but something is missing...

is it supposed to be an exotic car? I mean the front looks like something is missing and the whole car is still sort of incomplete compare to Ferrari, Lambo, Pagani...etc.

Timpo 06-13-2009 11:57 PM

hmm...looks like an Audi TT but a bit better

what the hell episode is that???

^it's off of his supercar showdown DVD it's got tons of nice cars in it. Very well done.

^^lol timpo needs bodykits!!! but I really hate the front of the R8 not so much from the front, but from the side, the car just looks horribly proportioned headlights are too low, and the roof and back end is too high in comparison,

997.2 C2S w/ PDK can smoke the R8

ilvtofu 06-14-2009 08:39 AM

^yup but doesn't a C2S have like 380 HP? so it's probably got a better power-weight cos the R8 is quite heavy.

But the Death2Theft says that an old C2S can beat an R8 which I highly doubt.

Death2Theft 06-14-2009 10:14 AM

Well it's the c2 in the video and to me all porsches look the same with the exception of the GT. So old new whatever as clarkson put it, still a bug.

Timpo 06-14-2009 12:17 PM

Powered by Gallardo part is pretty cool tho

The R8 is a beautiful car, but it doesn't have that aggressive growl like a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. Porsches all have nice exhaust notes :thumbsup:

I think it sound pretty decent stock , but the aftermarket ones sound awesome.
