Cars in the next Top Gear Series
 
What car are you folks hoping/looking forward to in the next season of Top Gear?

For me, I really want them to test the new CTS-V - even though that is wishful thinking - and the new M5.


I hope this isn't a repost question, I didn't see it in my search if it is.

F430 and MC12 would be nice. I'd say the CCR, but when discussing upcoming supercars that could take the Enzo the only thing they mentioned was the unfinished Veyron.

The CCR may not be quite as managable through the corners, but they have some really nice straights.

F430, m5, AMV8, sl65 (don't think they have done this one?) and, ferrari 3 seater f1 car with JC in it :D

Yeah but it was the 650hp CC and not the 800hp CCR. But i agree on the F430 and M5.

Edit: how could i forget the Sagaris :?

I wish they could test an '05 Saleen S7, the 750hp one. I've never seen a review of it.

pimrusis 04-19-2005 12:53 AM
They are going to have to acknowledge the new production car speed record, so I am sure they will want to test the CCR if egg lends them one. I think JC will be happy, he didn't seem to like the F1 that much.

i agree, that would be fantastic :D

other than that, I'd like them to test the new Z06 Vette (when available, though i'm not sure when that is happening/happened), F430, MC12, AMV8, Ascari KZ1, and maybe they should bring in a Reliant Robin for fun :P

yg60m 04-19-2005 01:46 AM
We read in EVO that JC drove the Koenigsegg CCR so I think we can hope to see it in this series :wink: I also think the M5 and the F430 will be there ... Even if they usually prefer to test cars on their own test track and the M5 is not yet available in UK .

Fleischmann 04-19-2005 02:03 AM
I'd like them to test the MC12 and the AMV8 (which is almost certain they will). Te Saleen would be great, but it will never happen on Top Gear :(

ARMAN 04-19-2005 03:12 AM
I am waiting for ANY episode that comes out :mrgreen: Nurburgring2 will be interesting imo.
When will it start btw?

bmwmpower 04-19-2005 03:27 AM
M5, M6, and Veyron , also in TVR sagaris

ChickenShift 04-19-2005 04:39 AM
Ridgeline :P

ChickenShift 04-19-2005 04:43 AM
No, seriously I want to see Clarkson test drive the 6.0 Holden (GTO). He only got to drive the 5.7 last seasons and loved it so. I can’t wait to see him with the 400HP version!!

There is just one in the UK and it's at the workshop at the moment... :wink: However, what I want to see are the Nürburgring videos... especially when Sabine tries to break the 10 minutes barrier with a van! And the usual DB9 vs EuroTrain or Scaglietti vs airplane... I wonder what will they do this season.
Well for the MC12 i'm not sure either, yesterdays 5th gear had hairy tom with frank mountains, which was also in Top Gear mag, for which he also writes!! For sure after this and the buying a ferrari F1 car feature, he and hairy tom seem to get on very well, so maybe TG would have to find another one? Whatever i'm sure theres plenty to come, by the time they air they will have been off about 5 months!! :D

saadie 04-19-2005 09:23 AM

Yea, he had the Fc-440 or whatever the number was, that he raced against the Jag. I want him to do a full on test.

pagani 04-19-2005 10:10 AM
Tvr Speed 12 Saleen s7(maby the twin turbo version) tvr sagaris and tvr typhon.
New corvette z06 and lots of other cars i love see tested at the topgear testrack.
Maby a supercars vs modded street cars shoutout wouth be cool.
Whit a timeattack and dragrace + plus a race round the topgear testrack.
And kick some supercar ass!!
:D :D

JiggaStyles09 04-19-2005 10:28 AM
yea my top pick would be the new TT saleen S7, then the CCR and a few others would be the new z06, AMV8, and the F430.

mv 04-19-2005 10:50 AM
I'm eager to see the Zonda F in action, but that doesn't seem to be a matter of the next season as it was unveiled merely a month ago.

And I guess we're about to see the CCR, F430 and the M5 together with the Corvette are also likely to appear.

redbaron 04-19-2005 01:18 PM

gobs3z 04-19-2005 01:36 PM

M5, M6, new RS4, Sagaris & F430 :D

pimrusis 04-19-2005 03:23 PM
When are the M5 and M6 released in europe?

|Nuno| 04-19-2005 03:44 PM
F430 Coupe/Spider, MC12, M6, M5, Aston Martin V8, Brera, the Egg and the SuperAmerica. And of course some new features as well...

Shit, I'd be one happy mofo. Roll on May 22 sd...

HeilSvenska 04-19-2005 07:16 PM
Sagaris, MC12, Typhon, AMV8, Brera, 159, Koenigsegg CCR, Rangey Sport, CLS, his own Ford GT etc...

blah 04-19-2005 07:30 PM
SL65, CLS55, CLk DTM would be nice. MC12, new 3 series, Bentley Flying spur,

PeleProdigyGTO 04-20-2005 01:46 AM
Whoever said new RS4 good call, I can't wait for that!!!

A super lux shootout b/t Audi A8 L W12, BMW 760Li, Phaeton W12, and whatever else they can come up with would be awesome. Also, F430 for sure and the new flying spur would be excellent.
