Cars you'd like to see in Series 16

SLS AMG
599 GTO
GTR Spec V
One-77
CTS-V Coupe
GranCabrio (GranTurismo Convertible, if you live in the U.S.)
458 Challange (Should be out by winter?)
Saaaaaaab 9-5, only if it is/will be tested by James
Jaaaaaaaag XJ
Range Rover Evoque
 
A joint review that starts with Saab 9-5 and Volvo S60, and then gets taken over by the Koenigsegg Agera when it's time for a drag race.

Or the Agera versus the Zenvo ST1, that'd work too. Sweden vs. Denmark is always fun. :p

Porsche 918 Spyder. If we have to have hybrids, this should be a good one...

The 918 isn't due to go on sale for another 3-4 years, so it's unlikely to make much of an appearance in series 16.
 
I'm still waiting for the damned KTM X-Bow to go around the track. In the February issue of Car and Driver they compared the X-Bow versus the supercharged Atom and claimed the X-Bow bested it around Virginia International Raceway. I really don't believe it. I just want the Stig to take one around the track to see if it can beat the Ariel's 1:19.5.

They did, but it was only a Topgear.com web exclusive, i dont think itll ever appear on the actual show as its been out for a couple of years or so now. If they wanted it on they wouldve done it already.

It failed in comparison to the atom, 1:23.1
 
911 GT2RS
Mercedes SLS AMG
BMW 5 series
Porsche 918 (if its possible.. :D)

Thank you very much Dragonboy, unfortunately that only confirms my suspicion that track comparison's by American journalists are SH*T.

Edit: The car magazine in question employed a few "race" drivers to get the times they came to in the comparison, but I highly doubted the results purely on the technical specifications. Obviously the Stig was the the deciding factor.
