T.33 Spider reveal plus Gordon Murray explains where supercars are heading next & it's not electric! 

I'd be very interested to hear what Murray has to say about the e-fuel / synthetic fuels that are coming out of England and what Porsche are doing.

Agreed the francetti video was slightly boring. It felt more like an ad

@@PaulV3D they’re the future, my uncle works at Mercedes in Germany at one of the research centres. Mercedes have no plans whatsoever to continue with mainstream EV production after 2035. You can see on the public markets where the big boys are investing their own money and it’s sure as shit nothing to do with EV’s. I said about a decade ago synthetic fuels is the only way it can work because for the most part everything can stay the same

Yeh like shmee😂 or not click bait

I want that FBI guy on Wired to give us an analysis of their body language 😂

Noticed that the film didn't show you actually getting in the car. Judging by the angle of the open doors and even with the screen moved forward, I can imagine it wasn't easy?

We call it manners

Education is a very,very beautiful thing and Mr Harry had it in major proportions.

@@PeakTorque and it’s as simple as this

Always gotta be careful with one-off boutique super cars built to drum-up excitement & corporate funding....

Pagani lost it's plot. lots of very questionable bespoke versions over the last few years. Zonda and early Huayra were peak Pagani.

Murray would be looked upon more favourably if he wasn't constantly overplaying his role in the development of the mp4/4

I hear that Enzo Ferrari guy was pretty good?

​@@lukemallory7832 also W O Bentley, Henry Royce & Charles Rolls & Henry Ford , Colin Chapman, Soichiro Honda 👍

And Mate Rimac

word

@@ashred9665??

For real. I bought a Tesla for a daily driver and love it but if I'm splurging on a proper sports car it better damn well be a proper manual.

Electric hand brakes are horrible and it's always disappointing to see sports cars with them, I mean seriously?

If you're chasing time, paddle shifting is the optimal solution as of yet. You know it's true - or are there any professional race drivers asking for gear knobs? There's this cultish attitude about certain anachronisms, just like vinyl aficionados: data on plastic is MAGIC! And if you let the machine sync beats - or rotate your turntable at constant speed - you're a phony!1!

I really like this comment. Echoing my thoughts 👍

Gorgeous colour. Reminiscent of Estoril Blue- the best E36 M3 colour, except of course... Techno Violet 😊

Fantastic point made there . He will use the latest pots and pans when creating his perfect dish , but will never _ever_ be caught serving 'impossible' meat or soybean meat substitutes . Heh . What a guy - thank God there is at least one of him out there still sticking to his guns and sticking to what has proven to be correct rather than getting swept away with silly fads , trinkets or this preposterous ideological near religious zealotry of 'progressive' battery only vehicles that draw power from coal plants , catch on fire on hot days when driven hard and take weeks to be extinguished and have their charging cables cut off and stolen by copper thieves .. lol . The human zeitgeist does tend to go mad every once in a while with whatever the latest trend or fashion happens to be but always swings back into reality eventually . No doubt in the future we will be driving incredible hydrogen fuel cell powered V-12 works of engineering art with electric motor assist but only once technology has progressed enough to make sense to do so .. Unlike today . Today it is wasteful , at times even dangerous but _always_ mostly for fashion no different than wearing some enviro greeny logo on a T-Shirt .

The GMA visits are by far my favorite. I could listen to Gordon talk forever.

​@@meshies shame he's such a bullshitter, makes a lot of claims to other people's work... like MP4/4.

$2.35M, £1.8M for an unremarkable looking car inside and out. The package is purposely simple and light, but nothing outstanding. As for power, I'll take displacement and low end torque over 11,000 rpm any day. Wrong car, wrong price, GMA heading for GM-Administration.

@@stephenc6955 GMA could sell every single one they make three times over. The torque this V12 makes is enormous anyway, and the torque curve is astoundingly flat - and the torque to weight ratio is incredibly high. It would make absolute mincemeat of a 6.2 litre supercharged Corvette on any road or track. The fact that it is so light and so capable is what makes it such a compelling package. No, it's not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

@@stephenc6955 Don't buy one then?

Yeah the Zonda C12 and C12s were more pure and aesthetic than the F and variants that came after. Something about the early Zondas just appeal to me more in pure design. I still think the Zonda F and Cinque are striking and amazing in their own right but I just prefer the elegance and shape of the early Zondas.

Total opposite end of the automotive content spectrum that is largely c9mprised of vacuous, unintelligent drivel. These guys are indeed pure class, and it’s great that we have this medium to gain this kind of access, people could only dream about not that long ago! Long may it continue!

Seriously? It looks dated and bland. Way better looking cars on the road at a fraction of the price.

Just checked the price. Insane money.

@@markgilbertson1564 dude created the f1 Mclaren You don’t know anything about being dated or bland His Designs are literally legendary. Ahead of his time

@@markgilbertson1564 what part of the t33 looks dated , it just looks simple it's not over styled.

Lol😂 no man. It looks like a lotus/toyota mr2. Its actually SHOCKING this car isnt being sold for 60k which is what its worth.

I'm surprised no one has piped up to say that was the Lexus slogan. As long as they don't use it in advertising, Lexus might be ok and IP rights may not have been renewed

@@frankchan5547 You are right, for G.M. meanwhile the 'purist' part is the key bit

It bloody well should be for the ridiculous price being asked. Utterly ludicrous.

@@bugattieb110ss yeah I’m glad I was sitting down when they mentioned the price. Wow

@@bugattieb110ssit can’t be that ridiculous when the whole production run is sold out plus an overspill waiting list. He probably could have asked even more!

​@bugattieb110ss how much profit are they making per vehicle sold?

​@@bugattieb110ss that's the cost of such a small production run with a car with no money spared in development

Basically buy a Lotus...

@@CarDaddy24 Evora 400 - best solution if you do not have access to A110 - own both - pretty different cars while A110 is much more modern

These are also 6+ times the price plus they’re not in production yet, so we shall see about the weight. Hope some magazine will put them on the scales (:

Why didn’t you do an electric handbrake? Because it weighs 2.8kg! If light weight is a priority, it’s a priority😂

It's even funnier when you consider the Valkyrie is about 200-300kg heavier than the T50. That car is so naked it barely has bodywork on it, how on earth the car designed as an F1-on-the-road is so much heavier than the car that wasn't?? That's bonkers! And Gordon said being in F1 taught you a lot about packaging, so what on earth is Adrian Neweyy doing? The Valkyrie looks so needlessly unusable on the road in comparison now hahah

@@orihalchon when he was talking about 6-7 litre v12s being cumbersome I heard a little snub toward AM. 😄

​@@orihalchonit'd be a tough choice but I'd still take the Valkyrie though

It's a really beautiful Elise.

@@maxmeier532 With a V12 !

When was he speechless though? Did you watch the same video?

@@mattmorris2867 lol there was a moment when he just looked stunned when Gordon was talking about the airflow and downforce; brief but definitely had him speechless

Masterpiece? try opening the door in the garage!

he said in a different interview the cost material have gone up 40% since the last one so makes sense

It really truly is SUCH a shame. To apply this philosophy to a car that a normal person could afford would be a true service to all who are driving fans. It would be a noble goal.

I actually gasped out loud lol

At that price most of these will go into private collections and never turn a wheel again.

@@markgilbertson1564 at that price Gordon is going to be rubbing his hands together 🤑🤑🤑

​@@iancampbell2295 na I don't think the profit margin will be as high as you would think

@@yota8325 ???? Are you kidding, he's making over a million on each car , that's the point.

It's wonderful. Just passion and compassion and civilization. This is what life should be like everywhere

I agree. T50 is aggressive and more technical but T33 is elegant and class. None of the current breed of hyper/super cars are this classy. Something about this T33 spider harking back to 60's sports cars.

That's not the only ugly thing on the T.50

Haha this is the first time I have heard being too f1-ish as a negative.

I wish Ferrari’s looked like this with the 60’s inspired lights

That's what they are made for, driving.

Even Harry would be giddy at that prospect

@@visionist7 yes he definitely would be, can see it parked up in his garage though with a map on the back telling us where he is going

Well Gordon says his standard for the best riding and handling cars were the Lotus Evora and the Alpine A110. The Evora and now the Emira are bargain supercars in every way. The Alpine is good too but it's a 4-cylinder.

Yes Lotus....

Yes… and it wouldnt have an 11000 rpm 600 hp v12, also the lotus emira for 80k weighs 1000lbs more with a lighter v6 engine, thats why it costs millions.

Think you'll find his Lotus Elan from the 1960s left a very lasting impression on him

Gordon needs the big ticket price to cover his start up expenses. And like many things these days, the higher the price the higher the demand.

in 1:18 scale 😁

@@AndrasMihalyi 1:12, 1:18, 1:24 or 1:43 ..... all fine ....

T50 is impressive but not really pretty. T33 is a truly beautiful car. Like supercars were in the 60's and 70's.

This kind of legislation will just lead to driving becoming more and more of a luxury and not something the average person can even enjoy. Different rules for those wealthy and those not; as usual.

🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮

Well the T33 is available as a coupe, so no compromises needed.

@@pirkkaruuska5766 is it, or all sold out already ?

@@pirkkaruuska5766 oh, absolutely. I've seen the coupe. I think without the fan it's a prettier car.

@@Outland9000 the fan is plain ugly to me, this is elegant, pleasant to look at.

I suspect that the prices are inflated due to it being designed by him & the fact the F1 now commands so much money, as well as other exotics. That's the big carrot dangling in front of prospective owners/investors, thinking it will mirror the F1's sky high residuals, so he's using that to his advantage & getting his cut up front! A lot of manufacturers seem to be getting on the bandwagon of over inflated prices due to investors in cars & not true enthusiasts so I don't blame him but agree with you. It's such a shame as hardly any of these overpriced exotics are actually driven regularly. And by driving them regularly they then become a poorer investment thus are pretty much forced into being garage queens from day one due to that dangling carrot. Only a few owners couldn't care less about the money & use them, which I applaud. If you've got the money to be able to buy them, then drive the damn things I say. You can't take any of it with you when you kick the bucket.

​@@yips_way in the video he says that federalizing alone costs 28 million. The costs are insane, the man is not going to make 15 million out of these

He wants them to be driven. He's got a competition going that customers who have the highest mileage will win some sort of annual prize

​@@comeberza yep I don't think most people realize the cost of creating a car like this. Especially when only 100 units are to be sold

Johnny Smith gets on well with Gordon too

So your point is : "for the price of this steak you could have 100 Big Macs, 50 cheese burgers and fries for every day..."
