Porsche Carrera GT Car Review - Top Gear - BBC 

This is the most brutal and most savage thing I've ever heard

+Colds Not to mention the most honest.

+Snoop Doge Or blaming guns for school shootings.

+Snoop Doge it is a very beautiful car but very weak and dangerous so i think we can blame you for its weakness?

+ Abdul Rashid Abdul Mutalib why paul walker carrera split in half how many super sports cars did you saw splited in half? honstly i dont know if it is weak but i know it is very dangerous car so what is the point of it if you have to drive it so slow? and kill you by any mistake?

And hot pursuit 2, when you were little

Hey i used a cobalt ss. Beast when maxed.

I used 240SX tho..

@@cIappo896 Lol same, the beauty of the game is any car is a beast when maxed.

It was the Murcielago in my case (well it was in Carbon at least I've yet to get a copy of MW)

exactly

This thing or a f40. The last manual supercars.

@@tobiasschranner5937 carrera gt ,.every single time .

The Paul walker KILLER 😏.. 😂

@@1972BoNeZ666 shut up about Paul walker .

Yes

imo just flat out best sounding car

@@gerrythecarenthusiast that makes it the holy trinity of v10s

First thing I thought ♥

Don't forget the Viper

Yeah, what a bargain.

he said 350K British pound! not dollar!

Considering now they're more than twice that, and used and abused, yeah, it was a steal.

Yeah no one would buy it

Abused. You can get less than 20k driven for 599k. I doubt that car has never seen track.

Someone tell me what's so bad about flappy paddles there's no way I'm really this young

+Colds its the feeling

MariosMusicTV flappy paddles are still involving though

+MariosMusicTV (obviously never driven a manual)

+Colds too slow usually.

you've been in an F40?

you've heard a CGT pas by while in an F40??? where do you live and how much do you get paid

@servissop151 lol west Austin and was an ex girlfriends dad's F40. We were driving over in the Westlake Hills just west of Austin. Tons of Uber rich out there. Not uncommon to see one of the few Bugatti in town out there at car meets.

Grow up.

@@lethalchocobo1886 you help him then,to grow up unless you yourself haven't.

@@lethalchocobo1886 No.

German entered the Chat still got it

@@lethalchocobo1886 NEVER grow up, unless you want to become boring.

Derek Jimenez I wonder how long Jeremy took to get used to the McLaren P1

Definitely demands respect. As Hammond put it when driving the Lamborghini Aventador, "I want people watching not to just go, 'wow, that's a stunning looking thing', I want them to look at me inside and think, 'Woah, there goes Chuck-E- Hammond, he's brave!'"

you have to be walter röhrl to control this thing properly.

TheWolvesCurse You have to be Senna to race this thing.

Nope, listen to Jeremy carefully, he said clearly that he took all morning to get ready to take on the Mercedes. Lol. That's what he said!

@Zack Smith Cause you werent around...

@Zack Smith You have no idea how wrong you are.

There's nothing wrong with electric supercars, except for the imbecilic reduction in cylinder count

😭😭

Yeah fuck hybrids solving part of our dependence on fossil fuels, cos they… ain’t go vroom vroom!

Sunday nights, 8pm! My siblings and parents weren’t into cars, but there was always at least one family member watching it with me. I remember the LFA episode with Richard Hamond not long after - the car blew me away! The editing was god-tier, matching the Japanese engineering excellence exhibited in the LFA. I love that car too to this day.

Do you also claim that guns don't kill people, people kill people? Because I have a news flash for you. People with guns kill people and drivers in cars kill people. The tool is equally as important as it's wielder.

@@David-ud9ju Guns can protect lives if used by the right person. Just like the Carrera GT; if driven by the right person it won't cause an accident

@@David-ud9ju well the gun just doesnt go airplane mode and start killing people its the people who use THE GUN to kill people

When Paul wasn’t the one driving...

@@David-ud9ju guns don't choose to kill people, people kill other people by choosing to pull the trigger just as drivers choose to drive a car and put themselves in danger

What about the Lexus LFA

+MEGAHUNTER666 Or the Lamborghini Huracan

+BIGAL 24seven Carrera Gt, Lexus LFA, and Ferrari F50 in no particular order.

+Krusty Komedy Klassic De Tomaso Pantera. My dream car. Something about the sound that car makes is just pornographic.

+Krusty Komedy Klassic KKK? Ooh that's not good

I REALLY miss all that era, in cars, music, tech, lifestyle and EVERYTHING !!!

Gallardo, R8, Huracan, RS6, LFA, M5

Don't forget the Viper as well:)

DimensiiioN yes, we all want an estate car

Lexus needs to reuse that spectacular sounding work of art of theirs into something else

DimensiiioN + Viper/RAM and Volkswagen Phaetom

Jackisaboss1208 Noble M600. That's an analogue car, check it out.

Xavier Capela He didnt say that CGT is last analog car he said it last GREAT analog super car and Noble M600 isnt that great...

UncleanerBullet It's his opinion, I think it's a great car too.

Xavier Capela It has a Volvo engine...

It's a volvo engine that has 650hp and can hit 225 mph, how many supercars from today can do that? I understand people's opinion about this car, but I do like it.

Francis Marasigan III silicon carbide-😳

Yes, same feels

1 in 1000000 years

That's the last Porsche they made that wasn't derivative and ugly.

Correction: "Clarkson liked THE Porsche"

@@David-ud9ju Sooo true. Thank you for saying it.

because it's nothing like a porsche

probably every german who's watching this ...

haha snibsnab :DDD

What makes this so German is the fact how we are handling this. If the train is 5 minutes late in Germany, we are all busy talking about how the train is late. In a lot of countries nobody would even care about 5 minutes. If there is a meeting in Germany and you are not there before the appointed time so the meeting starts at the appointed time, you are late. In some other countries you would not really consider coming before the appointed time.

Having recently lived in Switzerland for 2 months and commuting daily in and out of Zurich I must say that Swiss trains/trams genuinely are on time. The clocks in the stations start counting the negative seconds and then minutes if the train is late and in the trams where you can see the drivers dash the large digital clock turns red when the tram is running behind. Great place.

When he squirms at Silicone Carbide 🤣

Fuck I wish I had an MR2, brother…

​@@dajokahbaby1506Huh you both have the same profile pic but different names

I know right, I have been trying to find the for YEARS!

And the "I'm speaking to you now from inside one of the venturi tunnels"

I'm not a native speaker so i don't get the joke, could you explain?

MEEE TOOOO!

@@mrnb8932 He was pretending to get "Excited" over Silicone Carbide.

Well that's because 95% of 'the rest of them' are 911's...which are disgusting.

How is a 911 disgusting?

918 spyder is like this

Well isn't it supposed to be the successor?

Sadly no, over 50% is cayennes in sales :P

Seriously?! Try slamming a Nascar broadside into a tree and see what happens.

+MoabMan There is a limit to how stiff you can make the car to be. Especially for a side crash where there isn't much crumple zone at all. Even if they make it extremely tough then people would die at low-speed crashes because of the brutal acceleration. That's why cars have crumple zones. If you want to crash at high speed, then you put a roll cage.

Dude if you know a little bit of physics, no safety measure can save you after 60mph crashing a huge tree. Moreover, supercars need to be light to give the performance. The engineers kill themselves for saving a gram or two but you say that they should put all the heavy stuff for safety...

+Hakan Karakurt Indy cars, NASCAR's, etc. they crash all the time at high speeds and the driver walks away. yea it adds weight, but what's more important? a little faster 0-60 time? or safety?

They have cages dude, you are right. And they are driven in an controlled environment where tires etc. used to slow the crashes down. These cars(NASCAR etc) don't have stereos screens anything etc. . So I also think you are right safety is important and I was really sad about Paul but you know if you really don't want to risk your life don't drive like a racer in a road made for transportation. Go to a track or something. Yes I love F&F like movies and the way they drive in the streets but it's no good in real life. If you happen to kill someone in an accident it's unbearable and if you die it's the end of story.

Zonda too, even though that came out in the 90s.

Don't forget the Murchielago SV.

+Colds you and me both

Samesies

+Mutale Malama dont forget about me

F 2K Paul Walker

Always man! Always....

You could also find this track on series 21 episode 4 when james reviewed the new (at the time) caterham 620r and the 160,but it's not that long...unlike the one we got here in this CGT review clip

Paul Walker wasn't the one driving

@@spaceghost5026 ah thanks I stand corrected. But the rest of my statement still stands

Isak kerman buy the 918

Green Back i would actually rather have the carrera gt, but i wouldn't dislike the 918 either. but i only have the money to own a volvo 945 at the moment

the one:1 is a way faster car, no doubt about it. and the Porsche 365gt is a freaking beutiful peace of art. however, i do not agree with you that the Shelby is a good looking car, it is just a mustang that is insanely rare, i would say that the AC/Shelby cobra is a way better looking car. but i still stand behind what i said. that the Porsche Carrea GT is the most beutiful car ever made imo. (imo stands for in my opinion)

Nicolas Broszky and this is why there is so many different cars, everyone think different about the look of cars. i personally love the look of a good ol' station wagon like the volvo 945, 745, 245 and 145 i like the boxy shape and the practicallity they offer in an affordable and fun package (RWD) the porsche carrera gt is one of the last greats, it has a manual gearbox and rear wheel drive. it's v10 has a sound that comes right from the roaring tepths of hell. and i think that the styling is simple and eligant and it looks like it should be really aerodynamic. i can't understand why all the supercar manufacturers makes their cars to be automatic only. it is freaking boring to drive an automatic. you should have 3 pedals and a stick shift. and i'm not the only one that thinks that way. ask most petrolheads what their prefered gearbox is, automatic or manual. they will answer manual.

Nicolas Broszky true that.

Not to mention the fact that the tires were ancient. I've only got 146 horsepower and my car is RWD, but my 7 year old front tires are starting to scare me because I know how bad the grip is

I'd be honoured to die in such a good looking and sounding car

80%AshamedOfYou knowone is blaming it?

@@syd9969 There are some old comments here which are doing that. They've since been drowned out by all the people saying what he's saying

In all reality the opposite is true. If the limits of the car are so high and the breaking point of the chassis is on a knife’s edge, then the only way you know you’re making a mistake is when you’re inside a wall or around a tree.

Finally someone who understands

The GT Paul walker was a passenger in had dry rot tires. Bad tires caused that accident. The tires looked new and no one knew the tires were dry rotted. Just a bad accident that happen to be in a Porsche.

Porsche says to change tires every 4 or 5 years with their cars, I think. (One or the other, forget which.) The tires on that Carrera GT were 9 years old. That, and it was being driven twice the speed limit.

Craig J no it they were in a ferrari they could’ve survived because ferrari’s have traction control and stability control. The carrera Gt is not a safe car

@@kiranbabu5403 It's only unsafe if the operator doesn't know how to drive it. Most people are shitty drivers. Fine. Don't buy it, you pampered, incompetent little baby.

Tweet this

@@raunitsureka5847 I mean Seriously? Who tf doesn't change their tires for 9 years? That's so dumb! My dad changes our car's tires every year.

@@desertsandfly2277 your dad is smart, tires are one of the most important things when it comes to performance and safety

when you buy a used car, always change the tires and oil

Will never not reblog this

Same here mate

@@kingpleb5822 Damn man after 6 years! Still rocking the beat!!!

LFA is the only one so far that can stand up to the Carrera GT.

Murcielago?

murcielago is an excellent car with amazing sound but it's a different sound signature due to v12. LFA and GT's characteristic sound come partly from the v10 config.

SLR & R8 v10

steve blow SLR is a V8.

+Raed Sakly nah, i always liked the Murcielago better :)

+Raed Sakly i never did buy that car in the game i would wanna try it

me me me me me me me me meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! always liked so much compared to any other car in that game

Raed Sakly yup I beat the BMW in this love it and want one

I knew the Carrera GT from NFS Hot Pursuit 2 in 2002 first, fell in love with it then as well.

Sam Brown the LFAs V10 sounds so much better.

Was gonna say the LFA by far had the most beautiful sounding V10 ever.. period

I can't decide between this and the porsche 917.

I totally agree !

Carrera gt over lfa every day, all day, any day.

Iestyn Dalli yes this makes me feel sad too... this and the slr are the only supercars I would have bought, if I was rich of course

Anything is possible my friend

Thomas Prestridge I know everything is possible but let me tell you this: I live in Greece... So for now I must settle with a 1992 Rover hahaha

+Iestyn Dalli I hope you get to drive one someday.

James May was in love with the Countache since it was made, yet only got to drive it 20+ years later when doing a bit for Top Gear. James May even worked for an automotive magazine, then the most famous car show on the planet and still didn't get to drive a Countache when they were released. So don't say you will never get to drive one, because you never know.

Can you explain the joke for me?

Finally someone understands it is not the cars fault it is the drivers faul.roger didnt change the tyres for almost 9years and if you overspeed the car will spin out

the new ones are lovely

h2oaddict28 the new ones are all generic, electronic, hybrid pieces of shit

how old are you?

Is that your really your name or are you an SD supporter?

Also in that year Zonda had a Awsome super car as well. The Porche is my favorite

Murcielago SV,Enzo,F40,and most of all McLaren F1

+Colds Murceilago? Haha seriously? That garbage doesn't deserve to be in any legendary car list. And, just in case, I have owned a Murcielago in the past.

Big B im gonna guess from your will ferrel meme in your profile pic that youre 10 so go outside and stop acting like need for speed counts as owning cars

Colds I'm going to guess, from your probably rampant habit of assuming shit about people, that you're 9. Go outside and stop acting like playing with barbie dolls is the equivalent of getting laid. Oh and I have owned one in the past, unlike you, good luck downloading all those Murceilago wallpapers, printing them and then sticking them in your bedroom.

Big B omg did i make you cry

Check 5:20 in this clip to see what I'm talking about:) dai.ly/x5sn7u

Hated this cut...

20 years now!!! Still remember seeing it, at its launch in December 2003 at the Dubai Auto show.

I suspect the car slid to the right exiting the right hand turn, hitting the pole ripping the left side of the car while knocking over the pole and rotating the car to the left. Causing it to hit the tree with the right side of car and appearing ripped open on the left.

more like 6:25

and apparently it was leaking before it crashed could have been steering fluid that drained out on the way to there accident.

Money doesn't buy happiness but it certainly can buy things that make you happy 😁

@@MrEazyE357 exactly

What people with money say

U speak the truth my friend

Paul Walker wasn't even driving

Yeah, Paul's daughter sued Porsche for that. Her attorney went on to say that the Porsche Carrera GT is a dangerous car and shouldn't be allowed on the road. That's just such an insane argument to begin with. That car is fast, no doubt, but you aren't "obligated" by it to go 200 kmh in the city. It is perhaps more dangerous than a Prius, but not dangerous enough to be illegal.

@@SoulCast7 this car was notorious for its difficult handling

@@unicorntomboy9736 so just like any hypercar ever produced what is your point?

Ikr, i love that ebgine aswell

+the stepper Yes, the same for basically every high reving V10. The Lexus LFA was fantastic too.

Every v10 engine car sounds are incredible

but what's the name?

@@Chriswasreigns left bank two

Adrian Lee That's basically the problem of all high-end sports cars.

@@Stryke607 Nope even if you're in a newer generation Supercars it'll be much easier to drive compared to the CGT because it's still counted as an Analog Supercar without all of that tech and assists we have now.
