    I thought that was very nice, but would like to see more of that Lambo's power slide at ~0:57-0:58, please.

    This is nice but why can't Motorweek or whomever be so stunningly cinematic?

    @Blue387: 'Cause MotorWeak is a 30 minute infomercial disguised as PBS informational programming?

    My first thought was "so this is what the Top Gear camera men do in their off time", then I saw the "TopGear.com" slide flash up and was like "this is what the Top Gear camera men do in their time off".


    But there's that "Made in America" bit... could it be this is some sort of viral for Top Gear US?


    I know NBC, or whoever it was, decided not to go through with it, but they're still shopping it out to cable networks or this could have been done as some sort of "look what we can do" piece for an ad agency trying to get some contract.

    Awesome as that was, I'm wondering about the video player. I have a slower connection speed and that played back without stuttering in near-DVD quality. Vimeo?


    By contrast, I no longer watch Daily Show clips because their video player is so much garbage.

    It's amazing how such simple techniques such as Vignettes, slow motion, and adjustment of curves to boost color and sharpness, all paired with High definition cameras, can produce such an orgasmic video of such fine automobiles.

    1. at least there was one female in slow motion to try and offset the various men


    2. I wonder if TG budget cuts led to so much buildup and no release


    3. less music, more engine sounds


    4. stunt yellowjacket (wasp?)


    5. what does pedaling, soccer and jumping in to water have to do with TG?


    6. nothing compared to the shell commercial

    @Vassago: you can remove #2 and #5 now that I realise it's not an ad for top gear but rather some name dropping. The rest still apply :)

    I don't know when it originally came out, but I first saw it (one) at the original 2001 Porsche Rennsport Reunion at Lime Rock Park. It's the W3 Triposto, a sort of 928 spyder three-seat kit car, I guess: www.w3triposto.com
