Default How does Top Gear convince car manufs to send them cars?? >>

The reviewer is just MEAN! I am not a big fan of SUVs but late last year I dropped my TT for service and was handed keys to the Cay Turbo....as a loaner.
On road that car MOOOOOVES! I am even more astounded at off-road capability....But watch the review.<ul><li><a href="http://www.sleepy-fish.com/fish/Top_Gear_Cayenne_hi.wmv">Cayenne Review</a></li></ul>

Default McLaren F1

http://www.sleepy-fish.com/other_veh.htm - Tons of Top Gear clips.

Would you believe the reviewer actually said " it doesnt move me" when talking about the sickest production car? What is with this guy? I guess in light of this, I dont feel so bad about the TTs review.<ul><li><a href="http://www.sleepy-fish.com/fish/TopGear-Jaguar_XJR15_McLaren_F1_Skyline_GTR.avi">McLaren vs Skyline</a></li></ul>
