Heavily modded and tuned Acura Integra GSR in maintenance and modification action.

This time round, TopGear's Jeremey tried Ferrari F50, which did considerably well when pitted against a F1 racing car. But somehow it still did not impressed the driver, and even think that whoever buys it will put it in museum.

I guess his parting statement "Give me the less inspiring and cheaper Ferrari 355 anything" tells so much about his disappointment on this power machine.

TopGear's Jeremey shared his thought after driving Aston Martin VanquishS, which includes a back to back test with Ferrari F575 GT, on century sprint, braking power, and drivability.

Despite F575 GT outshone VanquishS in all test compartments, both the test drivers prefer Aston Martin, for its character. Well, I tend to agree with them, since if power is the main differentiator for purchase, there are better underdogs.  But give me either car anyway, if you ask me today…

This was a Saab commerical made to show how solid the handling of Saab is. No computer trick at all! well, at least I choose to believe so. LOL!

Topgear Jeremey did another first by driving the 2.7 tonnes Dissel powered Landrover Discovery to the summit of a Scottish mountain, standing 1007 feet above sea level, going through the difficult terrains. The computerised gear differential system adopt the appropiate settings when the driver tell the onboard computer on the type of terrain he is driving on, just by some turns of button knobs. With some challenges, the Landrover Discovery managed to reach the summit, which no car had managed to achieve the feat, yet.

 TopGear conducted a very interesting test drive. Jeremey from TopGear had to compete against James & Richard, on who would reach Swiss Alps first, from Guildford, southwest of London. But the context of the competition was interesting. Jeremey had to drive the new Ferrari 612, while James & Richard would take the public transport, including coaches, trains, and plane, to the destined place.

Jeremey had a good start obviously, as James & Richard had to first take a coach and train to the airport.  By the time the latter boarded the plane, Jeremey was alread hundreds of mile ahead of them. But the speed of the plane gave James & Richard an huge advantage, and they caught up effortlessly and at one time, they were 250 miles ahead of the ferrari.

During the journey, Jeremey had to contend with roadworks, traffic police, and rattling noise (!) which he soon found it the culprit being the wiper at high speed! Well, if ferrari can have rattling, you have to spare the Saab and Volkswagen for their infamous rattling problems.

Very soon, Jeremey was way behind James & Richard, where the latter landed at Geneva airport. But due to the train waiting time, Jeremey did a good catch up, and very soon, what originally appeared to be a one-sided competition, intensified.

So who won eventually? You should really watch the video .. and I am sure you will enjoy it!

Topgear does a review on M5 E68, and demonstrated how solid the M5 handling was with all the donuts and drifts. Fantastic car, and fantastic driver. This is one video you should not miss if you like to see how well the car can handle.
