  1. I really like that front bumper!
    63
  2. The E46 is probably the best M3 ever. The CSL is simply a masterpiece! My goodness that noise!
    61
  3. They should certainly make it but with €80,000 you can buy lots of other great cars.
    42
  4. Nice! The Leon will most likely be my next car. With a manual gearbox though.
    35
  5. I'm afraid the 458 is still the queen for me. It's certainly slower but the noise is on another level compared to the 488. It also looks better.
    34
  6. The Lexus is obviously the better car but the Holden is such a special beast. It would be my choice with a manual gearbox.
    25
  7. Love the 208, hate the Clio. They've ruined a legend.
    23
  8. Love the Mini! Expensive though.
    21
  9. Some great driving right there! I must admit if I had to choose just one it would probably be the R8. Love the V10 and that interior!

  10. Those who want the ultimate Cayman should wait for the GT4!

  12. C6SuperchargedZR1 The Leon isn't boring at all my friend. It's great fun to drive. Maybe the DSG is less fun but that's because of the gearbox.

  13. The 650S is extremely fast. I did expect this result

  14. You obviously prefer the boyracer image but I like this restrained one. Too bad :p

  15. The R34... legend indeed!

  16. Two cars with fantastic engine noises!

  17. Rain tyres are softer than slicks so in this occasion they're the correct choice. The runway isn't grippy enough for slicks
    5
  18. It's hardly the same car. They are all similar but not the same. The Leon is the sharpest and quickest of the lot.

  19. kerk tp If they have indeed made a better car than the rest what would you like them to say? The problem seems to be that if they bash their cars you believe them but if they praise them you don't. That's not quite right.

  20. G9 Music You don't need many things in life. You don't buy those things because you need them but because you want them. Someone who's considering buying an R8 is most likely between that and other supercars. Not just other fast cars of any shape and form.

  21. I'm very surprised by how close the GT3 was!
    5
  22. Uhm, no. Many people in the streets have time for corners. These aren't merely straight line cars.

  23. It's interesting how EVO said some different things.
    5
  24. That Atom...
    4
  25. Because it's a supercar. In any case, I don't think anyone is struggling to decide between buying an R8 and an RS6. They're completely different cars for different customers who have different needs.

  26. It's really great Alfa has this car in its range but the biggest problem is that it goes up against the Cayman which is sublime. It could never win this comparison. However, I'm looking forward to the roadster they'll soon present in collaboration with Mazda. That car may change things significantly for the company's image and for the first time I may well consider buying an Alfa Romeo.

  27. The R34 is my favourite GT-R. A true legend.
    4
  28. Yeah I'd go for the S3 as well. Although I must admit it's great to have the STi back!

  29. I don't understand VW. Why not give it the full 290 hp the whole time and the Brembos from the Leon? Interestingly, in an older video Sutcliffe lapped the same track in 46.5 with the Civic and 46.9 with the Cupra 280. So why would anyone get the Golf? If they wanted the higher quality I think the R would be the better choice.

  30. This is amazing. As a kid growing up, watching Knight Rider, I was wondering when, if ever, we would see an autonomous car. This is the closest thing to KITT we've seen. I'm really looking forward to this technology becoming mainstream.

  31. It actually says they don't know what they're talking about :D

  32. Motor Sportz Looks are subjective. You think it does, I think it doesn't. Those side intakes in particular mess up the design.

  33. Motor Sportz So why do you write WRONG? Idiot

  34. C6SuperchargedZR1 Well, it's a turbocharged straight 4. The only way to make those engines sound good is by fiddling with the exhaust and that's a little artificial. Personally I'm not looking for an interesting noise in such cars because I know I can't find it. The looks are subjective. I think it looks great particularly in dark grey but I like it when hot hatches are understated. I'm 31 years old and last thing I want is to drive a car that looks like a racing car. But that's not really relevant. We're talking about driving here and based on every single review the Leon is a fun car to drive. It's not a Megane RS but it's close while being newer, quicker, offering better equipment and all that for not a lot of money. Overall I think it's the best FWD hot hatch at the moment. Probably the next Megane RS will be better but you never know. They may murder it like they did with the Clio.

  35. amapolishplummer You can get the ACC without the DSG. Stick it to 6th on the motorway and you're good to go. I agree with camelsac. DSG takes away some of the involvement and it's a very involving car. Also, DSG + ACC may add 50kgs which is not insignificant.

  36. +Joshua L The RS3 is even more expensive.

  37. Great-looking car. Looking forward to the RS version although I'm not looking forward to it having a flappy-paddle gearbox.

  38. Nik Brudar Sure but when we need to bring special circumstances that play better for one type of car or another it doesn't say much does it? On a very tight and twisty track a FWD hot hatch may even be quicker than a 4WD one but not all tracks are tight and twisty. Most proper tracks actually are the opposite. I'm talking about the norm. Anyway, at some point we'll get the Focus RS' Nordschleife lap time so all questions will be answered.

  39. Top Gear did it and although the R8 wins, the RS6 stays remarkably close.

  40. I really don't like the Huracan's looks. I'd prefer the R8.
    3
  41. This was incredibly boring. The car seems very good and it's impressive how much prettier it is compared to the outgoing model.
    3
  42. Yeah but not as an everyday car. To be honest I think the R is the better choice if you want to stick to a Golf and with the same tyres I doubt there will be much difference in lap time.
    3
  43. Absolutely the Ferrari.
    3
  44. eyesrightout Uhm, no. The Golf has Leon's differential which is a Haldex setup that works left to right instead of front to rear. It doesn't use the brakes.
    3
  45. eyesrightout You should check the specs not me. I have the Leon so I know what it has and the Golf has the same thing. It is electronically controlled but it's a mechanical setup. It doesn't use the brakes and it's very, very effective. Read this http://www.pistonheads.com/news/ph-eurocars/vws-vaq-diff-explained/30560

  46. For the first time ever, I like an AMG more than the respective M product.
    3
  47. I prefer the previous one. Looked pretty good!
    3
  48. MS Absolutely agree. In fact, every new Civic looks worse than the previous one. I don't know how they manage to do that. I think the CR-Z looks great but before that, their last looker was the S2000.

  49. I love it they use banners to cover those buildings and make them look like the pit garages.

  50. Chinaman Champ I think it looks great to be honest.
