Good. The R8 won. I agree.

That's a shitty comparison.

Seriously. If he was just gonna consistently knock the C4 because of the rag top, why test a cabriolet? I think the Top Gear Carrera vs R8 comparo was much better.

hotsand5 · 04-24-2008, 05:10 PM

agreed...shitty review.

vladinecko · 04-24-2008, 05:12 PM

i don't mean to stand up for him but i don't think he was bashing the 911 at all. in fact, i think he liked it better overall.

Year's_End · 04-24-2008, 05:17 PM

Not a shitty comparison. At the very least it's okay, but it could be better.

Wow. Any idiot could host that show. Looks like they found two executives at CNET with nice cars and asked to drive them?

Year's_End · 04-24-2008, 05:26 PM

That guy does all the car reviews.^
