"Its like chlamydia. There are no symptoms but you know its there."
-Jeremy Clarkson
He was truly brilliant. Can't wait for the trio's new show
She's really cute 😍
Strictly Come Driving How are you feeling about the show now?

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
@@priyachithram6114 obviously 😂
exactly. but it's also the truth, that the girl is so, so, so beautiful, hot, and sweet
You mean there’s still hope for me?! 🤓
@@derin111 if you have money, yes
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.
@@NargaDestroyer 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
THE THING IN MY NOSE HAS A FACE!!

+SnejaTheKing You are correct and he has 73 upvotes... This is the way the world works, get over it.
"This is Loran" - what a beautiful girl!!!!
Let me help you 😂😂😂
If I could afford a Spyder, ruined hair would be the least of my concern.
You say that now
太陽ダビデ would you trade your hair for an Audi?
My hair is already short so wouldnt effect me
I forgot how ridiculous Richard Hammond's hair was at that time :D
Yeah!
It was his mid-life crisis hair style.
@@nath-wp7xp Now he has his midlife crisis goatee lol
Midlife beard coming soon.
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?
Just the R8, and only the V10 version.
@@taunokekkonen5733 So I won’t get a hot blonde with an A2? 😞
@@sterlingarcher2653 I think A2 is more rare than a hot blonde.
Any model even a Q5
Yes they are more entertaining than the entire series of the new top gear
The first song is ILS Intro Reprise (which was also heard in the PS2/Original Xbox version of Driver Parallel Lines)
jeremy's commentary is always so unbelievably great
Icl that some say is probably the best one ever and yes his commentary is god like
Man the R8 looked so great compared to everything else at its time
And still today
and still today
And still today
And still today
And still today
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...
+uvural Ikr lol, and thats before the frostbite sets in.
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.
Merih Karaman ha ye, there were more goats than cars on the road, when i went there
Grey is my favorite color
Seeing the two cars race "side by side" was pretty neat. I'd like to see more of that! :D
Says the man who had a Gallardo Spyder.
pandui ya I thought that was kinda weird. He adores the Gallardo Spyder. 🤷🏻♂️
I love how they made this funny above and beyond the genuine comparison. These guys rock!
7:26 Wow that last corner! Power oversteer in the beautiful 1st gen Audi R8.
Kudos to the sound engineer for at once changing the music of a clip and not screwing it up.
Purchase your Audi R8 with a free "Lauren" today!
Purchase your Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet with a free bee in your eye.
THE THING IN MY NOSE HAS A FACE!!!!! LMAOOOOO!!!!
4:30 Look at Lauren laughing what happened to Clarky.
Serves him right, she thinks, for what you did to my hair.
"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!!
Euro Fighter Typhon Cabriolet.
To be fair if a pilot ejects from the plane there is a Euro Fighter Typhoon Carbriolet
Briefly
Who cares what one is better, I would happily have either :)
with lauren :)
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.
Best thing about this road test was the screaming girl and her messed up hair. LOL.
Its always nice coming back and looking at old comments from 2 to 6 years ago and enjoy them
hahaha "the thing in my nose has a face!!!!" that was great
❤ laruen...who's last name I believe is mcavoy in case anyone wondered
you know your laurens
4.50 what music track is it ? :)
'the thing in my nose has a face!' i loled
This was the first Top Gear video I watched. Thank you for the memories!
the thing in my nose has a face!!!
I'll take lauren... Hold the porsche ;-)
I’ll take Porsche, hold the lauren
@@Doomgath
Take the Porsche and you have a bunch of Laurens
Ill take the Audi
@@dragogranic8171 Stonks
you simp
Hands down one of the best Top Gear review!
3:47 That grin though 🤣🤣
Wow! That chick...
+Usama Morgan Lauren McAvoy?
Judging by the ring on her finger she's not on the market anymore. Very pretty though.
screaming twit, stick to a vanagon.
@@ineedboostsobad Market...what are you? 13?
Usama Morgan She’s an ex model and yoga teacher now
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
"Eurofighter 2000 cabriolet" ahh that was priceless!
he sounds so cool when he says "YES" at 0:54 :P
Man the v10 R8 sounds just AMAZING!!
the girl looks cute
not as cute as the cars tho😳
4:20 amazing hairstyle :D I love it ! :)
I just can't help but lol at how many times Jeremy has compared engines to bears. (burning bears, bear mauling etc. etc.)
I positively HOWLED with laughter when Lauren started screaming. Brilliant! Nice one, Jezza!
"james may, building a neuclear submarine out of lego probably" lmao!
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.
The hair mop is a riot!
I'd love to do that to my friends and see their reactions, or how they jump off o the car :D
I could hear Jeremy talk about anything all day
Shahriar Rahi
am i the only one that actually guite like to listen to james may's drilling?
How does the Turbo Convertible have a faster lap than the GT3 RS?? Sometimes these times are so confusing.
“Things ended prematurely “🤣😂🤣😂
incredibull video this is the most wonderful program in the world thank you
ghassen ag just so you know, it is spelt incredible.
CakeyTheLegend how?
imo id take an r8 over any porsche
connorvip2 even an porsh 918
i'd sell the 918 for 10 R8s
One of my favorite TG car reviews of all time
Because it's just amazing to hear the full VROOOOOOM
997 is more classy to me
Lauren is hot
3:56 .. the most evilly satisfying face I've ever seen.
Whats the song that starts at 3:24 and ends at 3:52?
Guess what position Lauren was in during her interview to be on this show?
Germans build the best cars :D :D
Anyone know the song playing when "they both lose"??
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?
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!
"The thing in my nose have a face" always crack me up.
3;37 ",this is probably how you imagine things will be if you have a comvertible super car
the smell of the scenery
groove armada in the stereo
and a james may body double by your side" + clarksons face lmao
Porsche kicks all the asses
*James may body double*
3:13 awesome face XD
"the sound of peter mandelson being attacked by bears" loll
audi is the best
Porsche was always more sporty than audi
I don't know about sporty, but Porsche are closer to track cars than Audi.
+Mister911
>Porsche profile pic
>"Mister911"
>you can clearly see you're a fanboy
>says Porsche was always more sporty than audi.
***** i know
all sporty audis make more power than porsches
DudeGT 911 looks like beetle, R8 looks like Supercar.
A pop star from the 1980's. LMAO! That is CLASSIC!
LOL 7:10 the music he is listenin in the car
What if the girl is actually the Stig... O.o"
Ben Collins was The Stig.
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...
Justin Fajardo dw m8, I respect your opinion
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.
What's that kick ass tune at 4:54?
The thing in my nose has a face!
hopefully no stinng
The Audi R8 Sound Engine Lamborghini Gallardo.
Samoel Minkevich they have the same engine
+SmegSlebChef um they are both owned by vw
***** trust the worst german company to own them lol
***** well yes it's good but not high quality
+Jake Deane Well, it's cars for the folks.
Whats the music at the very end of the Audi vs Porsche clip?
what should i go with the r8 spyder or the hard top v10
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!!! 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
De Prins Van Mokum kudos for the use of the word "gopping"
givemeajackson haha thanks mate
Valentin Hoffmann It was beautiful on alll 4 sides what the hell is wrong with u.
Firemarioflower but the headlights... In my opinion the 997 is the most beautiful and payable ;)
I just realized that at 2:50, they play a Trentemøller song. And good musik is good!
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.
R8 is way better as a porsche
true
Pause at 1:59 to see what a dash should look like...plus amazing sound after
the r8 spyder is one of the most beautiful cars ever built, i adore it
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!
This R8 had a single clutch transmission, check out the new 2013 dual clutch upgrade it's awesome!
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" =))
3:08 Best line
@MacGyver920 Depends on your vantage point ^^ A semi-profile view of the car always gives more value to its length.
3:22 what a perfect thing!
amazing hairstyle :D I love it ! :)
What bmw is in the beginning? 3 or 5 series?
3:48 i agree, jeremy!
