Tonight on Top Gear - 2004.12.12

[evoWalo]

Sunday, 8pm, BBC2 (actually 7pm)

There's another fantastic line-up on Top Gear this week, and it's on your screens on December 12:

# A Lamborghini Murcielago goes up against an Evo SQ400 (Supposed to be FQ-400 but I guess they cant spell)
# We take a look at the new Mustang
# The Toyota Prius gets Top Gear tested
# Porsche Boxster v Mercedes SLK
# There's the seventh instalment of Top Gear Restoration
# Roger Daltrey is the Star in the Reasonably Priced Car

~~~~~~~~~~~

Looks to be a very interesting episode tonight. I really want to see how the FQ-400 does. I love the new Mustang's look. Isn't a Prius a green car/hybrid type thing? Boxster vs SLK looks to be entertaining. Overall this is better than last week's offering.

The question that I'm asking is is when the Stig will get his hands on the F430?

yeah, thats exactly what I was thinking..he doesn't like any American car he drives except for the GT40 and the new GT. I agree with a lot of the things he has to say about American cars, because he's right, but I would be VERY interested to see what he says about the Saleen S7.

yep, I've seen the Zonda v Murci video, but never heard of a match with the Evo.

Looking forward to see how the SLK can match the new Boxster.

for those who don't remember the Murcielago got it's ass handed to it by a Focus and the Zonda by the Evo FQ400 they were both in EVO magazine but the Murcielago vs Focus was also in Road and Track.

^ it was in the EVO magazine as far as I can tell from what T-Bird wrote.....so it won't be coming onto BT.

I would love to see the Evo win, I think it can, if not it will be close. I can't wait now, lets see what SAYC can really do on a car. Even if the Evo does lose, aint there a new limited edition EvoFQ that could put up a even better fight against the murci?

Edit - Sorry my mistake it is the FQ400 thats goin against the lambo, i thought it was the FQ330. I seriously can't wait now My bet is on the Evo!!

Fraken Focus right? That thing is a beast, with that Cammer engine. I dont think the Murci is that slow though, i just think R&T cant drive, give both of those cars to Fast Fords and Muscle Mustangs, and i can almost garuntee almost a full second off, or maybe at the least .300 of the 1/4 times on both cars.
