I enjoyed the video A LOT, but there is one thing I will always say about Clarkson... why does he ALWAYS drift? I know sometimes it's the car, but sometimes he over does it, and I think that's what he did here. Hammond never does, he drives it like it should be driven w/ TC off as well and he is fine. Jeremy's opinions are like looking into a vacuum tube, his reviews are too far biassed and he only looks so far before making his verdict. The 599 is MUCH quicker than the Italia, and it has been proven on other YouTube videos that it is WAY more capable of handling phenomenal under those speeds, he wasn't even going that fast. Sure it's quick, but not fast. He just needs to learn how to drive the "proper" way for these cars before making decisions/speculations... it always ticks me off.

I absolutely loved the review, pure entertainment which is why I watch Clarkson, for the true technical evaluations I tune into Chris Harris and/or Steve Sutchliffe.

Clarksson and Top Gear rarely get facts right though.
Jeremy said the GTO got the record for the fastest production car on the Nürburgring. When exactely was this? He must be talking about the 599XX.

599XX got beat, Pagani is 1st in line
"Pagani has once again proven that its cars can go as fast as they look, setting a new production-based car Nürburgring record of 6:47. This bests the recent record set by the Ferrari 599XX of 6:58. The Zonda R’s new time bests all times posted by street-legal cars, including the fastest street-legal “production car,” the Radical SR8LM with a time of 6:48"

"The 458 is faster than you, can you confirm that message?"
