Anyone notice that they used two different Gran Coupe's? The one toward the end have different rims and different interior trim. I wonder what was the reasoning behind that.

Haha watched this last night. Great episode.. I have no idea why Clarkson thought that any of those cars would beat the GTR off the line.

Yeah I saw that too. Maybe Clarkson burn through the set of tires so they gave him another car to use.

Run the tools adwcleaner, reboot your computer. Then run JRT(Junkware Removal Tool) and reboot again afterward. You should be fine after that.

I watched it on BBC iPlayer, and used Lamnia vpn so my ip wouldn't be blocked.

Was thoroughly impressed with the M6, love it even more after the episode.

how's the M6 faster than the gtr?
Jeremy doesn't know how to use launch control , or is it really all staged just for the laughs?
on the second attempt he goes for 'old school' and wins?....

It's actually not a complete surprise. The GTR is MUCH faster out of the hole. Once an M6 locks in, and provided you have enough road, the M6 can pull it out. Seen this MANY times. Put the two in a rolling start and the advantage can go to the M6 the whole way.

I've never completely understood the launch control. I can get the checkered flags to appear, etc, but finally gave up on it.

Honestly, the M6 is more of a rolling start car. It's plenty fast out of the hole, but it's not going to compete with the GTR from 0-60.

That being said, I'll choose the M6 over the GTR ANY day. It's a better car.
