Oh, i see...I can't wait though when they're gonna do a review on the GT, cause i think JC will constantly make jokes on the Germans Porsche engineers...

I really hope they can get a chance to put it on the show, but unfortunately, like with the SLR for Mercedes, Porsche may require Top Gear to go to their designated testing area (rather than them getting a car to put the Stig in). Shame.

Does anyone knows if they will test the Bugatti Veyron and the Spyker C8 Double S?

I can hardly wait for this review! I'm sure that it will beat the Murcielago's lap time! (the dry one)

The first Murcielago run was made in the wet and it was 1 min 29 sec to the Zonda's time of 1 min 23.8 sec. In the Lambo special though, they gave the Murc a second try since its first was in the wet while the Zonda ran in the dry. The Murc's dry run time was 1 min 23.7 sec, one tenth of a second faster than the Zonda.

hmmmmmmmmm i doubt theyll test the spyker at all, i mean its a nice car but too low volume production and the performance isnt that good its got to be mentioned(like the koenigsegg), although its still a kick-ass car. I saw 1 in monaco last summer, damn its low and good-looking!
about the bugatti, cant w8 till that test either, im not the cars biggest fan, but the 14 secs 0-300 they claim, i wanna c that!!!

WHen the Zonda was tested, there was a lot of water on the track near the end...zonda might be fastest on their track.

Btw...does anyone agree with me that the old stig can't drive 4 wheel drive very well... for example the first Murc was 129 and the 911 turbo should have got a better time rather then just 1 sec ahead of the M3

I don't reaaly believe in their math solutions when they in the dry you go about 4 seconds faster then in the wet.
