    GT3RS vs. 360 CS

    Here's one exceptional video from TopGear where the GT3RS is compared to the 360 Challenge Stradale. Enjoy it (+/- 12 ' movie, 65 MB)

    TopGear is broadcasted regularly on BBC World so with a satelite dish you should be able to enjoy it. Indeed, these guys know how to test cars and have enthusiasts enjoy it. IMO nothing compares to Topgear.

    I agree with Stephen, Top Gear is a very funny and entertaining "show", but fifth gear catters more to us real sportcar enthusiasts, its more profesional, less sensationalist, more serious, informative and thourough... besides thats were Tiff and Vicky are now

    That doesn't mean I stopped watching top gear, its entertaining, but Fifth Gear is better. Unfortunately I don't get either here so I download the entire shows from the web.

    Maybe we are...
    About Vicky, a girl aggressively throwing and sliding a sportcar around the track like that and appreciative of sportcars is veeeeeery SEXY, so count me into one of those "some people"

    I have often been looking for the entire shows on internet. Unsuccessfully so far. Can you download this directly from a site or does it take any Spyware?

    No spyware, you download a p2p program called eMule (not Edonkey which has spyware) and once you learn how it works you can download whatever you want, Top Gear and Fifth Gear episodes included

    Re: GT3RS vs. 360 CS

    It was a great article, and I loved watching it. What I keep askling myself though, is why they didn't let Jeremy ridde the 360Cs, and Richard the GT3 RS, and then reversed... Now we all have to trust that ferrari-lovin-porsche911-hating jeremy...
    The dork can't drive, and he keeps up (in a GT3 RS) with a professional race driver(in a 360 CS)... that is something to think about... Go RS, GO!!!

    Re: GT3RS vs. 360 CS

    I just saw that video a month or so, in the same web page. And I am sorry (casue I am Porschist), but in this case I 'll choose the F360CS because its music, simply music.
    I'll probably do this: install the ferrari CS engine onto the Porsche 996 GT3RS body and, ...voula!!!

    I'm interested that Clarkson complained so much about the GT3 seats - are they in some way different from the standard GT3 seats, or did he have sport seats in the one he drove previously and 'loved'? It scares me a bit to think of them as THAT uncomfortable...

    Ah, I see that you are one of those people who has not yet seen enough of J. Clarkson to realise that you cannot take his car tests seriously!

    Top Gear is my favorite show and I know of a website that has some Fifth Gear episodes and a lot of Top Gear episodes to download via BitTorrent. The Top Gear episodes are current too with the latest one (July 25) online right now.
