I think it's getting harder for them to keep the show well balanced between cars and fun and keeping it original,

try to think a whole year in advance what you are going to do in the future season episodes ! take a pen and paper and try !

i think it's not as easy as we may think !
Just because I or someone else can't write and make a show like that, doesn't mean we shouldn't criticise it for not being as good as it could be. If you went to watch a film and it turned out to be utter crap, would it be fair for the directors/producers/actors to tell you to shut up and eat your popcorn just because you can't make anything as good or better?

Sometimes criticism is the only way to improve something.
Can we get back to talking about the cars please.
Please feel free

Ok getting back on the broadcast at hand. I really liked the Mercedes S class review. The way it was filmed and the music was excellent. That last part of the uhm... Mercedes S with pavement made me laugh out loud. images/smilies/lol.gif But i also almost cried of what they did to that interior, it still was an S. images/smilies/sad.gif

The Koenigsegg is one hell of a car and i love its looks! 8)

Not an historic episode, but still it was a very good one! images/smilies/smile.gif

by the way... The pr person at KOenigsegg said that the wing was just for show basically. The thing only made difference at speeds over 300 km/h. In a nutshell she said that with all the setup that was done to the engine and chassis, the wing didn't improve anything. The car would still beat the record without the wing...

For me it was one of the best episode of Top Gear, I can't say it was definitely the best but... ouahhhhhhhhhh:

. Z4 M test was awesome, technically (marvellous video editing/background and music choice) and "artistically" (cooking lessons from Hammond, I was ROFL when he showed the chilli pepper)

. fantastic test of the S500, Clarkson at his best; very funny the recycling properties of the merc vs. the Prius, thinking about this stupid Leonardo di Carpaccio having at least 4 of them thinking he's "green" (stupid star syndrom)

. magnificent McGregor's interview, except while being ashamed of Star Wars

. very good Cayenne Turbo S race, I do not get why some critics about it: not unforgettable but not bad at all

. s-class conversion, for me the only part of this show which is not at least very good

I liked the Modded S-Class, Richards Driving, The News, which keeps getting better and better and the fact they had my favorite car beat Pagani!
