The Enzo was already tested by Tiff..
As for the various Veyron, SLR and CGT, we will see in 2004 I suppose ;) ok, for the Bugatti it will be maybe 2004, then 2005, 2006.. and so on ;)

Well there is not a production Veyron yet so that is probably why, clarkson did review the CGT in germany for top gear in print (i think it may have been posted here) but since they are not loaning any out, and private owners are not soo willing to lend top gear their cars after the lemans racer incident i dont think we will be seeing that for a wile. Also i doubt that they will test a Subaru Impreza WRX STi Type RA Spec C as they dont export them out of Japan, although i would love to see it smoke the EVO VIII on the top gear track.
I do wish that they would review the Saleen S7 but i would not hold my breath. Are they even exporting them?
Just some thoughts.

nissan skyline, reviewed, and driven around the track.
not just driven down the street by that fat guy.
and i would like them to review the "noris design" 600kw EVO (the evo they tow the caravan with for a high speed record)
that car is crazy, and it would be awsome to put it up against a mclaryn F1.

Evo tested the Spec C against M3 CSL and GT3, and it was on sale in Uk, if I'm not wrong. I have only an audio file of the Edonis...man what a noise!!Like an hurricane!
I'd also like to see the new M5 asap, it must be incredible.
And Noble M3 GTO 3R
...since they are not loaning any out, and private owners are not soo willing to lend top gear their cars after the lemans racer incident i dont think we will be seeing that for a wile....

When the old stig broke the rare jag c-type. "It is alleged that the driver burned out the rear tyres, twisted the drive shafts and destroyed the clutch."
Read the rest at: http://www.ananova.com/entertainment/story/sm_791484.html?menu=
After watching the making of victory by design, you really have to wonder how much it would cost to fix the car up after the abuse. Must be really costly to handcraft all the parts.

The TVR T440R was reviewed by Clarkson in one of his DVD's (no limits I think).
But there certainly are some cars from your list that I would like to see on Top/5th gear.
Tiff: Saleen S7 - Cerbera Speed Twelve - Corvette Z06 & the old Stingray
JC: Porsche 911 GT3 RS - Mosler MT900
and off course the others you mentioned SilverandcoldS4

Yes, I've seen no limits but I would like a complete test, with the Stig that tests it around the track.
But If I could choose, I waould like to see all those cars well tested by Tiff, so we can all have the opinions of a true race driver

Possessed Beaver,
Nissan's Skyline GT R34 did get the TopGear treatment twice...
One with Tiff (311 seconds) and once again with Jazza (140 seconds) :idea:

Have they done the Shebly Series 1. The Saleen S7 would be great! I would like to see the Dodge SRT4 against the WRX or the Evo.

Mercedes CLK GTR (ask to Bin Sulayem)
McLaren F1 LM
McLaren MP4/19

I would like to see the Dodge SRT4 against the WRX or the Evo.

Yeah, it would be cool to see the Norris Evo if it could resist the temptation not to munch Rear Diffs every 5 minutes :wink: .
