Great episode.. liked specially the part of the center of gravity since its mostly spot-on . Porsches enjoy tons of traction thanks to that.. but they had because that problems in cornering due to front wheels becaming "light".. in the other side are the FR cars and MRs are in the middle with generally top performance in both areas (but a b*tch to drive when you break the grip limit).
The FC looks really awesome.. FCs are also light cars so with 500hp this one is in th leage to compete against those 2 ..
Unoortunatelly they had to ruin the episode with the worst line in the entire series .. "dont buy a second hand french or italian car".
WTF? Did they watch Top Gear or they did got the brilliant idea from a pub? Sure Italian and French cars may had reliability issues in the past.. the distant pass.. they had no problems at all in the today times.. specially italians..
Ok Peugeot may be rubish but Citroen and Renault kick ass.. Renault even won the F1 championship twice recently..
And for italian cars im seriously considering getting an Alfa 156.. wich has better reliability stadistics than BMW and Mercedes
well.. rant over.. still the new Alfa 8C doesnt help at all
