[che996]

how the fuck does he know i watch at work??

[SobaniForce]

lol same haha, that freaked me out.

[Globalpack]

Not at all.

Full capacity is just my assumption that the battery needs a "full capacity" charge to run another 40 electric only miles, which, by my not being an expert is a reasonable assumption.

I don't know where you get your unfounded statement that there is not even a "partial" charge. That is the generator's function, at minimum.

[Globalpack]

Unfortunately the Volts engine will not charge the battery enough to allow another 40 electric only miles between plugging ins but like I said aftermarket will allow more than 40 gas free miles, which is why this car will ultimately be a tremendous success.

[Tips1010]

yo iv seen the new audi a3 roadster

[LesPaul789]

I love it how Audi STILL can't match the engine in the E46 M3. The S54 has to be one of THE best engines ever.

[CaLyPsO16]

lol wow. ever heard of the rs4? the rs4 is meant to be the rival for the m3. not s4 vs m3

[LesPaul789]

And does the "current" RS4 engine match the new M3 engine? If you want to compare models relitive to their age, take the old RS4 versus the E46. The M3 beat it in absolutely everything other than in a drag race,although this is entirely dependant of the drivers ability. Now, take the new one. Power output - Same. Peak RPM - Better in the M3. Torque - Better in the M3. The BMWs 0-62 comes in at 4.3 seconds, may I add without 4WD. BBC's Top Gear did a program featuring these two cars...

[LesPaul789]

(plus the Merc C63 AMG), and guess which one they'd chose. They did a timed lap where the BMW was significantly faster. Since Audi has no "current" RS4 in production, you have to assume that they are marketing it as an alternative to the 335i, but lets be honest, if you want a new, fast German saloon in that price range, why overlook an M3? Or if your buying used, same money will buy you a V10 M5 in good nick.

[CaLyPsO16]

im not raggin on the m3. its my favourite car in the world

[LesPaul789]

Glad we agree. Sorry if I came over a little agressive, im just very passionate about the car. I mean it has been pretty successful in just about everything its done! :P

Forgive me? :P

[CaLyPsO16]

lol its alright

[halomolim]

I will say, that the last RS4 was an allaroung better vehicle than the same year

M3. 4WD adds to that, but there is also the styling, and that RS4 amazing V8, one of the best engines of all time. I am a HUGE M3/M5 and RS4 enthusiast, and I now think that Audi made a huge error by slimming its engine down. I n ow like the M3 better, because of its engine/trans.

[sillykian]

saw it from the fiat website..the 500 ss is with 200 bhp..guess it is fast enough to beat the mini s.. how nice can it be if i could see one !

[manbearpig91]

julian is awsome

[player1vladimir]

Dodge stealing Lotus cars?

What is next?

Ford stealing Ferraris?

USA autoindustry is bad in the last few years but they don't need to steal design, its just not right...

And that FIAT 500 SS looks good 180HP and only 930kg that will be a mean little machine...

[Globalpack]

The NA 1.4 liter must be more fuel efficient than the 1 liter turbo. Turbo engines are extremely thirsty.

Yes, the engine will "replenish" the battery but you mistakenly assumed to full capacity.

[dstiner86]

Huh that VW truck wasnt half bad looking

[e10rice]

Get back to work! What...... You spend all of maybe an hour trying to get those lines right for a 4 min video and your telling me to get back to work. Get a real job you fake Obama look a like.

[Globalpack]

"...the engine does not recharge the battery once its power is depleted."

I have been following the Volt since the beginning and GM never claimed that over 40 miles the generator charges the battery to full capacity then drive another 40 miles electric only.

Aftermarket will give this car longer than a 40 mile range, don't you worry. They're already doing it with the non plug-in Prius.

[xboy540]

DD is so much better than this fag

[bappul]

chrysler must die

[bubjok]

LOL that mini electric car after the minivan looks like a retarded face, demented smile and a massive forehead

[DaviDeXtA]

Great episode :)

[notthehulk442]

sucked today

[mightygood1]

Australian topgear starts this monday. woot cant wait. hopefully you guys in the US can torrent ours and watch.

[hyboi86]

Yeah stoaked aye! We're having a top gear party, prob abit much but we're all keen as hell.

[XboxLiveAnchorman]

Not very fond of the Fiat and the VW is average. The Porsche looks alright, but similar to the 911 Turbo GT3.

[tofy89]

what is the latest news about american top gear?

[hyboi86]

Another ute/pickup truck for the Aussie market, do we really need it, we've got millions here already.

[vermillion58]

yer i dnt c how its goin 2 take of here...the market is pretty well dominated by holden n ford for the 'sporty' utes n the workmen are dominated with the toyota and mitsubishi so i dnt c much space for it.

[bkrawk]

get rid of this fuckin guy

[aznxblaze128]

agreed.

[mustangjustice]

That VW truck is fugly.

[plug007]

Can't wait for the RS4. I reckon it will be slightly better than the E92 M3.

[vladabih]

Well done!!!!

S4 sucks just a bad replica of the BMW M3

(quote: Jeremy Clarkson TG)

VOTE FOR CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE FAST LINE DAILY!!!!!!!

[BOMBITAMORENO]

what are you saying????jajajajajajajaja XD!a replica of what????jajajajaja posible the audi s5,but not the s4!!!!!but you must think that this is the competence...audi must present cars in the same car sector!!!in spain we prefer audi cars...bmw are much expensive and have worst equipament with the same cost

[DoC0701]

I Don't Like This TooL, Wheres Carrie????

[skaterrj007]

Dude FLD is about cars, not voting. Stick to the autos next time guys, leave voting to political blogs.

[pickerts01]

Lol who the fuck cares

[skaterrj007]

Julian Dujarric, trade with Alex. She's actually interesting.

[carfan2k2]

what happened to carrie hosting?

did she disappear like ji young did?

hope not..

[60UDA]

The new S4 looks gangsta! Minivan? who cares! this is FAST lane. The porsche is bad as always, and fiat might have a good power to weight yeah?

[afcs09]

Why the fuck would you tell people not vote say go hear to vote and its not a neutral site giving information as to how to actually vote or register to , but rather an obama site?.....way to ruin this episode

[azharmohammed0]

wow..u guys c when d porsche turn d corner..it looked like it was gonna go in d air

[allanferns]

i actually like the looks of the VW truck

[th3bigk0]

this idiot looks like Obama

[meerkat006]

the Dodge EV looks like a stealth

[FILIPINOCD]

Make electric cars Chrysler!!! You only waste gas!!!

[seth556]

well not him. his campaign, but same thing.

[seth556]

Another good episode. Just hate that you guys had to ruin it buy putting an ad in there for Barak Hussian Obama in the way of saying you should go to a website run by him.

[RAWfart]

yea! damn that hussian!

[comedicd]

we aren't favoring either..the site is actually bipartisan, you can go there to register, cast an absentee ballot, or find ur local voting place no matter who you are voting for...just some FYI...we aren't taking sides, just letting ya know!

[abidib]

man u are so not funny dont joke around your jokes are so bad your just making fun of yourself

[ayalapepon]

cant wait for paris. and hes not that bad dudes

[lancecastle223]

bring back Derek at least Carrie has boobs! this guy just happens to be a boob

[martinjamieson]

worst. host. ever.

[lucahemi1233]

this guy is gay

[mail22]

GET LOST! DO IT. DO IT. DO IT NOW!!!

[JAYFROMHARLEM]

a supercharge a4 how gay is that? They should bring bac the bi turbo

[ZBroder]

i want more lambo 4 door pics!

[ZBroder]

today is a boring day for cars

[SRTv1]

Wow.

Carrie Milbank lost her assets.

Unbelievable.

[chopperhead2011]

I miss Derek and Carrie :'( Oh hell, you did alright kid ;-)

Audi is really coming along, their cars are much sexier than previous years.

Thier parent company, VW however, sucks. They stole Chrysler's Town & Country/Dodge's Grand Caravan, and I don't even want to see their pathetic excuse for a pickup.

[thefuzz247]

this host sux

i want carrie milbank!!

[allenangels]

it says hosted by carie milbank in the discription

[kubomon17]

oh man bmw is making smaller engines, now audi, this sucks. fuck high gas prices. and why is this guy back again? sorry, im just pissed about auto makers having to make cars with smaller engines... but he does suck.

[IboDeBo]

CARRRRIIIIEeeeeeeeeeeeee =(

[Robez93]

why wouldn't the US get the VW pickup first? The US has more pickups then most of the world...

[rcfp2006]

the US make enough of their own 4x4 utes, it'd be a tough market to crack.

[Robez93]

Yea, true, but Honda was reasonably successful in the US market with it's Ridgeline.

[proto35]

that was a kewl VW SAR truck.. andd.. on the description it says hosted by Carrie Milbank,,,unless she had a sex change to Julian.. then FLD screwed up the post! XD

[NovaScene]

Whats up with black folks saying Paris = 'Parii..

So gay.

[whatduhfu]

Because that's the right way to say it.

So dumb.

[NovaScene]

Yeah, I guess so if ur black. :D

White ppl say it so different.

[psychomelody]

I want to see a Top Gear-like race or battle with all of the hosts of Fast Lane Daily.

It must be nothing less than epic. Get Alex Roy to lend you some cars. Or build a car out of office supplies. How hard can it be?

[venomviper32]

why does porsche make boxsters and caymans?! so you can say you have the slower and uglier one thats cheap? the used ones will look right at mone on the average suburban street! theres no point in buying a porsche unless its a 911.

[VelocityCCX]

DO IT!!! Vote you, damn you DO IT!!!

[BorahLion]

LMAO! Why does the description say that the show is hosted by Carrie Milbank XD

Wow, Milbank, you sure have changed in.. less than a week o.o

[JDisturbed]

Lovin the garageband made theme song, lol.

[teamsleepnine]

[mufeeed]

[bja311]

[coboisarapatanas]

Right on the money VW...when trucks sells are droping they release a new one. that will work..i don't like fiats in general but this one is hottt :)

[mipmipmipmipmip]

indeed, they're not only late to the game, they're arriving when everybody already went home. What's next, a 14 cylinder SUV twice the size of the touareg?

[modifide]

VW making a truck well this is weird

[meerkat006]

who the hell is he?

[KSK4lyfe]

=[

[stc2008lt]

Wow FLD, advertising Obama's campaign? How low is that?! I can see how biased these people are.. and get Carrie Milbank on not Julian Obama Lover..

[AnDyMaksoud]

[vivalarey619]

[Punkdoggy800]

[jtdrye]

[JunknTunk]

Where's Carrie?

[grandandtoyrocks]

electric lotus really?

[FastLaneDaily]

Sorry about the delayed episode guys, major internet trouble today!

[DivergentButton]

That Fiat looks like rice and those audis have honestly lost there touch...

[jose7777777777777777]

yeeshhh

[TBustah]

Good, somebody different.

I'm still kinda pissed at Derek over that whole "Reno rednecks" crack.

[Specialized1989]

but its true....

[TBustah]

A population of nearly 200,000.

A school with one of the finest medical programs in the country.

A AAA baseball team on the way.

How is Reno a town of rednecks again? It may not be a major city, but it's far from a podunk.

[Specialized1989]

Legal prostitution, One of the highest METH cooking cities in the country, and well... Visual proof of rednecks everywhere.... its quite obvious. I lived near reno and i know the stories so yeah. And RENO 911 actually does portray the stereo types of reno quite well

[TBustah]

Vegas has legalised prostitution too, but you don't see people calling it a town of rednecks.

The bottom line is that if a town is small enough, you can get away with saying just about anything about it.

[Specialized1989]

I never said vegas doesnt have rednecks, every region does, its just that there's more of them per person in reno than most places. Nevada is just basically full of rednecks, there's no avoiding that...

[comedicd]

dude, chill out, i didn't mean it in a bad way...it's all good, i get made fun of constantly...was a simple joke, not being serious...i still like ya though man...keep rockin!

[mythical89]

Where the hell did the high quality button go?

Damnit.

[padrinoel]

not first
