Nice episode. Maybe the best Fifth Gear I have seen. Although the second half was just shait and there was some flimsy camera work on the first. Some guy was on the passenger seat of the Porsche in few angles, someone was at the back seat of the Ford etc. And why didn't they get any lap times or something to compare the Boxster and the Z4?

I have been thinking about getting a used BMW M3, an M5 or a Porsche Boxster if not a Boxster S in a couple of years from Germany. I think the BMW M cars just got dropped from the competition. 8)

I just wrote the longest comment, and the damn heart attack killed it. images/smilies/mad.gif

Here's the summary:

- Fifth Gear was like Best Motoring images/smilies/thumbsup.gif
- the old Boxster looks so much better
- the camera segment/stunt segment sucked

My guess: The M models pee pretty bad on a boxster S...

That was a great show. I loved it. So much better than the North American shows. I loved everything about the show. Vicky was cool. The new guy did a good job.

Nice episode images/smilies/smile.gif

This phrase cracked me up: "as a responsible motorist, [I'm] keen to ensure that other people don't speed through these danger zones".
I mean... You can't argue with that, because that's what speed cameras are supposedly about. Preventing people from speeding and causing danger. Yet it sounded SO sarcasticly images/smilies/lol.gif

By far and away the best Fifth Gear episode ever besides the F1 Clienti video but that was more documentary. This is more Top Gear style and I'm loving it! images/smilies/thumbsup.gif images/smilies/thumbsup.gif images/smilies/thumbsup.gif
