GTR FIA, Audi R8 V10, Toyota 1/Xth Concept, Lambo LP650-4...

[nitrobucky]

the way he dresses screams nerd and whats with the Random hand movements?

[SUBLIMEfan111]

Wow I remember watching this on February 27, 2009, now I randomly come across it again realizing that it's almost 2 years old.

[wolfdanger]

God this dude is so fking annoying and so fking GAY !

[locomotosoto]

Neesahn! Ha ha! You Americans crack me up ! It's NISSAN, doucheface! The clue is in the spelling. Short "e" sound, short "an" sound. Say it like a human person. And Jesus munching Christ, what in the fuck are you wearing, you turdbag?

[chokopinatta2]

he says 4.5 liter engine about GTR it`s 4.7 liter

[sub7viet]

[jraybay]

I didn't come here to tell a lame joke about the host or something about him I don't like because thats not cool nor funny.

[nima99]

I wanna sidekick him in the stomach!

[JaamesFly]

[meggido170]

[t3hdude]

2:58 LMFAO

[BunyPunter]

Bub, The Zombie, was trained...He was no bad zombie. He will be missed. Oh mister George A...When will we see another Zombie Flick....And this time can there be Bimmers?? Bimmer Bimmer Bimmer Bimmer Bimmer Bimmer Bimmer Bimmer Bimmer Bub..Damn.This aint a zombie thread,,,,Bimmer

[T0626N]

Nice review of the Lotus. Reminds me of Top Gear, but maybe it's because that guy looks a lot like James May.

[MusicalSilence207]

the r8 V10 looks too much like a bugatti

[VaioStreams]

I'm happy toyota is making eco-friendly cars. but we need a Supra now. it's been what? 10 years sense they last made them? not counting the ABflug and veilsaid models?

[Devik123]

Partyboy from jackass :))

Anyway great job man, keep it going.

FAST LANDE DAILY dutz dutz dutz dutz dutz dutz

Please do that more time :P

[renn16v]

Get this guy a new job and a new sweater!!! what a tool !!!!

[comedicd]

I totally agree, what a toolbox!! oh wait...it's me

[tbdaemon]

FFS, it's NOT a Skyline!

[hopiani]

Oh, and by the way.. Who the hell mixes the sound on these clips?? Fire the guy asap.. The levels aren't balanced at all! jeez!

[hopiani]

holy cow.. This guy is so lame.. Man the jokes are just embarrasing..

[cademcnown25]

if he would just give us our car info and stop trying to be a comedian, fld would be much better

[adman4993]

really good show today!

[krishnaz2]

Spinelli looks drugged up!

[kamikakushii]

This guy is such a douche bag hahaha..

[mickvk]

He's actually relatively very good. Be careful what you wish for!

[chick7489]

NO ONE CARES!!! :) have a nice life and Yea.. i thats right.. i can take anything you can dish out. "o God there go my organs" lmao

[onemiss557]

o man he got the solstice coupe thats a shame its a sick car but he should have gotten a 370z or an rx-8 r3 maybe ill forgive him if he swaps his pontiac motor with an ls1 =)

[818Camaro818]

lol I-Leana

[mickvk]

Nice belt. Tool.

[pheyn0m]

damn you beat me to it. That's the very first thing I thought.

[mickvk]

Yeah, I wouldn't be so harsh if it was once. But every day? D, c'mon man.... :)

[comedicd]

thanks tool

[DeStryke51]

Lotus's are extra sexy ;) too bad they take toyota engines

[vonOhzu]

Instead of sea weed why don't they just use hemp like everyone else.

[slotcartv]

Awesome!!!

[4jax]

love the ending D

[nikhilbod]

AWR TEYN :)

[giganoto]

lol he= shortie

[marco6981]

This guys is corny as fuck!

[supra3]

What is the point of FLDtours? Now don't get me wrong, I love the show but I am not particularily fond of that part. You don't tell us anything above what the average joe can find out googling "Lotus Exige S240" in 2 minutes. You guys are probably on a tight budget and might not have access to sophisticated recording gear but at least give us something other than bullet points out of a brochure.

[joshtaco9]

All I could think about is how much this guy looks like a fag.

[comedicd]

love the hate man, keep it flowin

[GinoJerry86]

that end part made my day!

[karsynisrad]

why does he always show his belt, it's pretty douchey

[aznkaller]

it's his style...

cuz he's fresh.... everyday... fast lane daily...

with Derek D.

[L575M]

R10 makes sense as is pretty cool name D

[snakesinmypants]

nissan should have used the 370z... not only does the Z represent nissan better, but its a much better car than the GTr

[notChris25]

great as always thanks dudes and dudettes.

[Dwealdric]

Mike should learn how to drive stick... when he tries to shift and take off, he upshifts into low RPMs and hardly moves.... then he misses a gear!

But hey, still one of the best FLDetours yet since it covers a car I can't just drive myself after 5 minutes at the dealer. Good work!

[LOLHICRONO]

ending was LOL, haha

[LOLHICRONO]

lol @ pizza

[0611930024838]

7:08 did he miss a gear?

[CrissAngelLIVE]

you should make the song "fast lane daily with Derek D always fresh on your TV"

[dimmeysbro]

with the toyota 1/xth it is all currently carbon fibre and when it is released for the road it is gna b made ov bioplastic

[TypeRacer8]

haha Audi R10 xD

WOW i love that exige S is lovely!!

[GoFuckUrSelfRealNice]

thats a neck

[llDeonxll]

Gimme yo sweeta fOoo..

[supercarfreek]

Audi R8 V10= to much get a lambo

[namastethizz]

Finally they reviewed a interesting car. I swear if i saw another volvo review i was going to off myself.

[rockisdeadnotquite]

The Computer in 2001 Space oddesey is called Hal-confused

[yourmomwazgreat]

cancel the order...that car sucks

[PnkFloydFan420]

those wings that pop up in he LP650 when the engine gets hot are freekin stylish

[itwillbuffout]

Great FLD Detours segment. Finally a car that's interesting. And where can I get that MTV sweatshirt?

[nemo125cc]

he is anoin:/

[zmansporscheboxster]

Yeah I am going to have to ask you to come in to work on Saturday...yeah. Thanks a bunch.

[BrothersGroove]

So... if you can be here at about... 9:00, that would be greeaat, K?

[BrothersGroove]

WTF? 9 O'CLOCK! Not 9 minutes!

[hevvye]

DD does beatboxing pretty well. is that possibly a second career for him?!

[MasterWestt]

I love this show, I watch new every episode every morning, but I hope I wasn't the only one to notice that :

-Mike needs gear shifting lessons (7:09)

-Derek needs dancing lessons (8:11)

!_!

[SomeGuysg]

"Derek, your really short" :P She just pwned D-man big time. Time for a bigger box to stand on.

[comedicd]

5'7" son son...don't hate

[bigmandanlp560]

finally some real cars

[Stonerhair]

One can't help but have fun in a Lotus. You have to laugh since you're so low the pavement tickles your balls. And it's a speedy little bugger.

[A2892Z]

The Exige engine is from a Toyota Celica T-Sport VVTL-I 1.8 190BHP. This one has a supercharger giving it 240BHP.

[kingy1098s]

gt1 gtr means aftremarket wide bodykit for the road version yay

[FatGuyWithAShotgun]

i knew this japanese chick named irene, her last name was toodareft. if someone gave me a lotus exige i'd go on a diet just so i could fit in it.

[FatGuyWithAShotgun]

toyota can suck a dick. primary producers are more important than an ugly ass car.

[salemcripple]

As much as i would love a Lotus, at 6ft 3, 300 ibs, there is no way in hell that i could ever fit in one.

[Leonar12345]

whos that at 7:54 its from a movie but i forgot who the guy was

[SkinkyMagoo]

that's Gary Cole as Bill Lumbergh mmmmkay

[ghostwriter11]

Spinelli, you need to work on your ball-ripping Clarkson scream (at 6:42). You still haven't mastered it. But nice job, otherwise, and a very cool review of a great sports car!

[mikespinnn]

I named that one "call of the spaz." For obvious reasons.

[Stilini03]

lotus has been supercharging all these cars lately, so when will they put a V8 into an exige?

[countach27]

ur crazy lol :D:D can you imagine how much a V8 engine weighs??

[Realtime1501]

there is a caterham v8 and the radical rs8 also a v8 so it;ll only be a matter of time before lotus gets in on the act

[deloreanfan81]

all hail our zombie leaders...sorry just getting ahead by hedging my bet

[IAmSamThatIAM]

That Lotus Exige is to small for my 320Ib all muscle frame!

[bottomlayer]

no it's not!

[IAmSamThatIAM]

You own one!? To me in this video it looks like I probably couldn't even get in.

[44orty4our]

The Lotus is a fat-ass. It had a deck and a shift boot and a passenger seat. And a roof..... anddddd a shift knob and carpets. If they wanted to a make a true sports car, they would actually make it light. Who really needs a hood?

[franzd03]

Mike Spinelli looks a bit like that dude from Top Gear. Not Clarkson but the other dude with long hair.

[NA4cyl]

James May

[adj789]

yeah but who was phone?

[amerbritcan]

Daisy? I thought The computer off of 2001 was called D.A.V.E. ?!?

[comedicd]

"daisy" is the song it sings

[drifter627]

nissan as all ready put out a race tuened R35 in the super GT in japan

[tjmclean93]

dude the solstice is soooo bad... thats such a bad choice,, cobaltt ss is way better come on derek

[comedicd]

nah its not

[player1vladimir]

Car made od weed? LOL

What happens if you burn the car?

[anthony6151]

We need Alex Gazella to host again. Derek D is getting too much face time and it's increasing his ego.

[muffinman127]

wtf is toyota 1/Xth? Xth? sounds like dick from a giant walrus.

[seroyer2]

wow a Solstice over a 128i cool. (not)

[747K]

Great great!!!!!!!

[otmlb1128]

i like the office space reference. :)

[bottomlayer]

I meant to give thumbs-up, sorry!

[sspope]

That racing version of the GT-R is only RWD, not AWD, right?

[wcstick]

or AWD tuned to feel like RWD

[piwright42]

The production GTR is already tuned to act like a RWD car. Most of the time it sends 90% of the mill's power to the rear wheels. It can shift up to 50% to the front as traction conditions dictate. I looked this up at The Motor Report:

"As all-wheel-drive is banned under FIA GT1 class rules, the GT-spec R35 GT-R will be rear-wheel-drive only."

[sspope]

Yes, but nearly all AWD sport cars on sale today behave like that.

[piwright42]

sspope we have discussed before CTS-V front rear balance versus German cars as I recall. Truth told the most agile cars are rear wheel drive. That is why current AWD's tend to send most their torque to the rear wheels. This GTR not only spits torque front to rear but also left to right. This is a kind of cheating in the purist FIA mindset. Think about it the torque splitting alone can make a crappy driver look good.

[piwright42]

FIA GT1 Rules will not allow for all wheel drive cars.

[87TAGTABANDIT]

That Exige S240 was pretty sweet

[snowysnowcones]

FLD needs longer FLDetour Reviews! I really enjoy them, but they're sooo short!

[Shadowaloner]

Fantastic Video and that was nice put charity to save the economy from crash give 2 Audi R8 away free that was good things there did. Great Derek D and you funny.

[KrisWales3]

The episodes are getting longer. They always used to be around or under 5 mins, but they are getting longer... Its no bad thing though.. I'd be happy to watch half an hour every day, assuming you remain packed with interesting features. You should cover more europe only models.. u need them in the states, maybe u could do Genral news Monday, American stuff Tuesday, European on wednesdays, Jap on thurs and FLDetours on friday.

[flawns]

oh wow i never noticed they were getting longer. Well they keep things interesting so it doesn't bother me either.

as long as they don't change their ways

[KrisWales3]

Another idea would be to get signed t-shirts, memorabilia, posters, and general junk and give it away as prizes in a wekly competition. Set viewers questions or (topgear) style challenges on a friday, and give them till monday to send in their entries..... I have loads of ideas for funny sh*t u could get people doing.

[pitrak88]

buff beaver on the shift lever at 2:54

[RedFoxRick]

Sweet rave at the end.

But, although I"m all for Green Foot print or saving the environment. Driving around an electric piece of seaweed with metal on the sides isn't my idea of staying economically friendly. Should we really be sacrificing so much? At this rate sooner or later we'll all be driving around Mr Bean cars

[mulham]

nice FLD tour

but that "SIKE" moment was a failure :P 5:26

[beistol]

that lotus is a sexy car

[nazarook]

whats with dereks belt? Oh and they need to make this HD

[arabrockerman]

Rather have a Nissan sr20det in the lotus

[pittmeister]

better to have the supercharged k20a from the atom in a lotus

[also1989]

i thought that fld had hd versions??

but who am i to judge the show for not meeting their promises...

"WE WANT HD-FLD!!, WE WANT HD-FLD!!"

[CSIS25]

Lotus Exige S240 is one nice car and its nice in blue to

[MattClifford32]

thats a damn good car review. keep it up fld!!

[jasamappa]

ahhahaha I loved the last thing with the headbanging in the office ehahaeheahea

[StaticFalconar]

Double D in the PANTS!!!!!

[izmeman]

1/xth-> Officially the worst name EVER

[ddmitry]

Really liked Mike's review on Lotus! KEEP IT UP MIKE.

[sevegarza]

hey D, you should have gotten a 370z

[WaveRev]

i can haz brainz pl0x? i hate people that talk like that but thats funny ^^

[skylineracr]

alright but wat i dont get is u asked people to vote right? so lets say if they voted for the bmw or anything else and u wanted the pontiac, would u have gone for that the bmw or the pontiac?, like i said im a fan of the show and think ur funny but in my opinion i wouldnt get a american car, i dont mean to be a jerk or anything, i hope ur happy with wat u get man all im saying is there were better choices.

[calzostian]

this lamborghini guys with every rare name like

Lamborghini LP650 dash 4 slash 6 hyphen 2 dot 9 question mark 3 dot 7 exclamation mark 8

[WaveRev]

ah yes, the Lambo LP650-4/6-2.9?3.7!8 great car

[csgt500]

hahahah truee

[bottomlayer]

Lamborghini 123456

[davidmac2007]

that is a nice sweater but it makes you make mistakes, audi r10 is a diesel le mans car

[krohn93]

FLD should put a piece in a FLD episode about Dered D's new pontiac

[bbbd]

what the hell is he wearing?! no wonder he drivs a pontiac girly car :|

[fickie321]

GJ mike

[VegetasRage]

wow you guy are asshole for criticizing him for buying that cars, he can get what ever car he wants just like my 202 corvette zo6 , my friends said it was to damn heavy( i dont know why) and now whenever i race him g35 i smoke the shit our of him , any ways dont judge him and especially dont tell him to kill himself fada126

[skylineracr]

how does that make me an idiot if ppl voted, i didnt so that makes u a idiot plus if he is buying the car he should choose and not leave it up to people

[JohnMarineTube]

Best of luck for Nissan in FIA GT. That will be awesome to see. Maybe I'll race it in Gran Turismo 5... :) LOTS of money in that auction for the Audi R8 V10. Seaweed car? I'd rather sushi rolls with soy sauce. Cool car, though! That Lambo is going to kick lots of butt! The Lotus Exige is one of the most underrated and understated sports cars. This Exige S240 is freaking awesome. Love that blue color (I love blue, personally). That can put some bigger sports cars to shame. Quite the underdog.

[Spyker88]

I'm with you on the GT-R. That'll be amazing to see Nissan return to Sports car racing.

[bottomlayer]

no sushi or soy sauce

they need to Americanize it

that's why their cool cars (Supra, old xB, anything with the 2ZZ-GE engine, etc etc.) are all neutered for the US

[ae8686]

i think it means 1/10th.

[skylineracr]

i love the show but derek is a idiot for buying the stupid pontiac, its such a bad review, search for the pontiac review by edmunds, u should have gotten the bmw or vw man, wat a bad mistake

[yaroukh]

ppl voted the pontiac

so that makes an idiot of you

[comedicd]

nope not a bad mistake at all, i dont buy cars according to opinionated reviews, i buy them according to my opinion...check out Motor Trends review of it here on YouTube, quite the difference from edmunds

[davitto1]

Sooo a Toyota made with Seaweed? So will it be edible too!! Sounds pretty ridiculous to me. What next a car made out of shit? Well we are on that way it seems like.... :S

[eddhedd]

cowdung powered Airconditioning

[TaSManiaC88]

just how tall(or should I say short) is DD anyways?

[comedicd]

5'7"...don't hate

[TaSManiaC88]

I'm just 3 inches taller so I dont think thats so short.. ^^

[fada126]

Derek D should hang himself for being a dope and buying american

[VegetasRage]

wow you guy are asshole for criticizing him for buying that cars, he can get what ever car he wants just like my 202 corvette zo6 , my friends said it was to damn heavy( i dont know why) and now whenever i race him g35 i smoke the shit our of him , any ways dont judge him and especially dont tell him to kill himself fada126

[red912e]

wow you dont know how to type, or talk. either which.

[bottomlayer]

why should he hang himself for buying a car that HIS FANS VOTED FOR???

Derek, have fun with your new car when you get it

[lol123m]

why r there soo many fuck ups lately

just get it right the first time in stead of giving us an annoying caption

[movado18]

You commenting about their f/u's is a f/u in itself. These guys are great....like your mom for example!!

[therealdvpringle]

Who gives a fuck as long as they correct it. It looks like it's a shoestring operation anyway, not Speed TV.

[KidWebs]

well Audi R10 would make more sense than Audi R8 V10 to me ^_^

[boobyboob69]

so what car did you get anyways D?

[evilkevin232]

I know the lotus can tear through the corners like not much else...but $64,000? C'mon, I can't walk into a dealership and say "Hi, I'd like to spend 64 grand on a tiny plastic car with a celica engine in it."

[bottomlayer]

you can get an Elise for $20000 less with the same Toyota engine

That makes it twice as much as a Celica was (even though there's no more celica)

Compare that to 1991 when the Lotus Elan (40k in 1991 dollars!) cost 3x as much as the Isuzu Impulse Turbo of the time

And, it's a LOTUS!!!! The only British cars that aren't rubbish!

The Lotus is also only about 2/3 the weight of the Celica because of lightweight parts that cost extra

[azneserice]

arent aston martins british? or do the top gear hosts just really really like the db9

[bottomlayer]

oh yeah aston martins are british

yeah they've gotten a lot better in the past 15 years
