Default Porsche Carrera GT - Test already sent?

Hi!

AFAIK Jeremy already tested the Porsche Carrera GT (Jeremy and Richard we´re talkin about it during the SLR test) and now I was wondering if that test has already been sent. images/smilies/icon_question.gif

So, if it has been sent already when was it and where can I get it? images/smilies/smile.gif

cya & thx
Oli

Well, you'll have to wait till UK receive the first batch of it as it isn't launched yet. Thus, if Top Gear or Fifth Gear gets the car to be tested, then you'll see it on TV then.

Well, I am ok with that! images/smilies/smile.gif

I thought you wanted to say that the Test of the Carrera GT will never be shown on Top Gear...

THIS LINK STAYS HERE! You distribute this link and I will come hunt you and your family down and beat them all to death with a stick. I mean it. 30 MB file x 100,000 downloads is not okay.

Anyway, here's two Carrera GTs on the Autobahn with a '99 Mustang Cobra:

You can share it with friends and stuff, I just can't afford for it to leak to RacingFlix or somewhere like that. images/smilies/wink.gif
