The narrator looks a lot like the one from Porsche Victory By Design in the nineties. Also, the images of the red late model were transposed reversed. Funny seeing a backwards VW1300 decklid badge.

Interesting video, however.

Blah, blah, BLAH ... the superiority complex of (some) Porsche owners (and dreamers) gone wild ...
Comparing the latest & greatest Porsche to the Beetle and using an original to do so is Cowardly at Best.

This is the ultimate evolution of the Beetle, in my opinion, the RSI. Still won't compete on a level playing field, but let's be fair ... apples to apples ... for the sake of Christmas! LMAO

cunts, i thought i liked top-gear but they make too much of a joke out of a beetle.
what an easy race (still the 911 lost), but they should do a 1/4mile against a call-look street killer!

did anyone also notice that the whole video is mirror-imaged?

Agreed... the one bad part of the show. Like the episode where they drive across Africa... A beetle would have been perfect!

Watched it one more time, but this time visualized him being in the beetle as it dropped rather than in the white car ... works for me. LOL

At the end of the episode they agreed that it was ;)

It would be nice to show someone at TG a properly tuned Beetle, not a straight line only car, but something that does everything well...

Did anyone notice the SA sprint stars on the back of the red Beetle? Shame!
