@@bofflethewaffle This is true but mainly because the Porsche family own about half or more than half of the Volkswagen Auto Group, so they get a bit more freedom than the rest
Why do people keep watching these old clips? Because there's more entertainment in 8 minutes here than in a whole series of new Top Gear. Also do you still get a blonde when you buy an Audi? Any model or just the R8?
"Really, It is like driving a car that has clamidia, there are no symptoms, but you know it is there.... and that sorft of spoils the relationship a bit..." BEST EPISODE I'VE EVER WATCHED BEFORE!! I like this show!!
They are so many shows on car these days. No one can beat Jeremy Clarkson. We all must have watched each clips hundreds of time and never get bored of it. A true legend.
Brilliant. Informative, funny and non PC all rolled into one great package. The new TG doesn’t come close although big kudos to Chris Harris who is epic.
People who hate on the R8 usually have never driven it. It is a demon, and it promises so much more than its looks would have you believe. Just watch out for the accelerator pedal, very thin accelerator pedal
What BMW is that in the beginning? It seems to be the size of a 3 series, but when this was released, the new 3 series was still a secret and the facelifted 3 series didnt have that shaped headlights. So is it a 5 series? length suggests no, since the new 5 series is basically the same length as the old 7. Any help here. I've looked at several side shots of many BMW's and can't figure this out?
I did a track day in Vegas and the instructor did a hot lap in a Porsche Macan first. That was an SUV not at all optimized for the track, and it was still one of the most thrilling experiences ever. Watching this woman experience a supercar on the track made me remember how awesome it was.
Kavi Gosai what I mean they're both from the same manufacturer and it's unnecessary to compare these two together. That's why you never see any competition between Lambo and Porsche
Test drove the Porsche 997 a couple weeks ago, I have to say I was impressed. I never expected much from luxury cars in terms of anything really, but this car surely shocks.
I like how I click to watch a Top Gear segment about an Audi, or an Aston, or a Porsche, and UA-cam thinks I'd be similarly interested in watching a 15-second ad for a Chevy Impala.
I've seen an white R8 spyder, roof down, with a young muscular dude beside it with shades and on with a white shirt. I was like "Fuck you rich handsome person" =))

Porsche uses model numbers and project numbers. Each individual vehicle is a project number and sequential numbers are usually evolutions or successors to the previous projects. Projects that were successful were badged as models and include the 356, 550 spyder, 911, 924, 944, 928, and 968. Their current super project is the 918 which is an ongoing project number. The 911 model has had many project numbers such as the 930 and 935, the 959 rally car and the current 997.

She's really cute 😍

Middle-aged guy in a convertible with a beautiful blonde half his age. This is the most realistic thing Top Gear has probably ever done.
R8 better than mercedes
exactly. but it's also the truth, that the girl is so, so, so beautiful, hot, and sweet

So Volkswagen added a bunch of strengthening beams, and Volkswagen added active engine mounts. Makes sense to me.
Michael Tarantino thats what i thought
It’s a 997. That was BEFORE VW
and Audi streamlined the Fox
Porsche is a fair bit more independent from Volkswagen than Audi, though.

7:26 Wow that last corner! Power oversteer in the beautiful 1st gen Audi R8.
I love how they made this funny above and beyond the genuine comparison. These guys rock!
The first song is ILS Intro Reprise (which was also heard in the PS2/Original Xbox version of Driver Parallel Lines)
They always had good tunes.
Seeing the two cars race "side by side" was pretty neat. I'd like to see more of that! :D
4:30 Look at Lauren laughing what happened to Clarky.
Serves him right, she thinks, for what you did to my hair.
the 911 has such a gorgeous back end! and the front looks clean and neat, and professional
no point have a convertible in UK.. what a grey sky...

Don't worry mr turkey, there's always 5 days of sunshine in the summer
Forget the grey sky my comrade, it's nearly impossible to drive a convertible on Turkish roads with your spine still intact.

pandui ya I thought that was kinda weird. He adores the Gallardo Spyder. 🤷🏻♂️
Best thing about this road test was the screaming girl and her messed up hair. LOL.
Kudos to the sound engineer for at once changing the music of a clip and not screwing it up.
Who cares what one is better, I would happily have either :)
with lauren :)

imo id take an r8 over any porsche
connorvip2 even an porsh 918
i'd sell the 918 for 10 R8s

997 is more classy to me

4:36 i had a brief moment of panic when i thought they were about to crash. g'damn you editorial effects! g'damn you all to hell!
3:56 .. the most evilly satisfying face I've ever seen.
Anybody else noticed that the Porsche (3.8L flat 6) is (marginally) faster than the Audi (5.0L V10)
*5.2, but yeah you're right
Because it's turbo-charged.
Yeah it's turbocharged, but ultimately they make around about the same HP figures (500hp give or take), but the 911 has much more torque.
The Audi is better looking! Both are good cars!
Arguing over which one is better is pointless; they're both VW's
so you have no preference between a polo and an r8?
Kavi Gosai what I mean they're both from the same manufacturer and it's unnecessary to compare these two together. That's why you never see any competition between Lambo and Porsche
Maqsud Rezwan of course it's necessary, the fact that they are owned by the same company means nothing
Years later but Not comparison one is an elongated bettle the other a Lambo brother
What's that kick ass tune at 4:54?
That is the 996 1st gen GT3 rs. And what jeremy is testing here, is the 997 2nd gen Turbo S. It is almost 10 years difference between these two cars.
Guess what position Lauren was in during her interview to be on this show?
I'd take porsche anytime
why?
SUQMADIQ it's his choice tho. I would take the Audi but, I'm not nagging him about his choice...

What if the girl is actually the Stig... O.o"
Ben Collins was The Stig.
What's the music that is playing at 1:42?
The gta Audi R8 noise is really accurate
What!!! The Old 911 996 was a zillion times better. Even as a convertible. Besides, it is prettier, sounds deeper and handles like nothing else.
The 996 gen was gopping

It’s amazing to see these two side by side. The Audi still looks modern and fresh up to this day.
I just can't help but lol at how many times Jeremy has compared engines to bears. (burning bears, bear mauling etc. etc.)

How does the Turbo Convertible have a faster lap than the GT3 RS?? Sometimes these times are so confusing.
