Porsche Turbo vs VW Beetle - Top Gear - BBC

[Calowyn]

where was the caravan on the X? ;p

[potamiag]

god man i have watched the show like crazy but this is pure evil , to crash a beetle is catastrophic better try it the other way around beside you can find as many porches as you want but beetles, they just dont make them anymore. This was bad =(

[swedesam]

amazing it landed right side up.

[MattRhymesWIthCat]

[easyletgo]

herbie's sister

[kingscrossification]

wtf come on man i actually love this show sooo much but that was pure stupidity that was a classic and an awesome car treat it with respect!!!!

[coolakiIlen007]

i love the beetle, i would choose it over 10 porches, or choose the porches and then sell them to buy a beetle. just great little car, it did good.

[RexMcBrain]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo beetle nooooooooooooooooooo

[mrhotness101]

at 2:35 i thot he said "i was shit out"

[arsyization]

me vale verga pero me gustan mas los beetle putos



[Lexvold]

Why waste our time.

[MarceloGoryGruesome]

well,,, fuck man!! the top gear is bullshit.... challenge the beetle 2332cc Turbo... killer

[ngrasso2]

fuck you. i would choose a beetle over a porche

[alexisgt90]

every time they showed the beetle in the air i struggled

[Spotty1125]

@alexisgt90 Me too.

[davidvu396]

[IronMaidenTheXfacto]

Poor Beatle :(

[dodgechargercrazy]

[SWORDMANSTR]

poor beetle... =[

[xXilovefastcarsXx]

Nooo the Beatle

I love this cars

[dovechris20]

so stupid!!who would drop a vw beetle..its a classic!!suckers

[dude2106]

@dovechris20 It is a classic example of one of the all time worst cars. EVER. Thats what it is. No need to preserve more then one to scare people away from committing such a sin to the world of four wheeled motoring. 

[Spotty1125]

@dude2106 It was a brilliant car. But it will not knock your head off your neck, though.

[dude2106]

@Spotty1125 It was cheap to buy, cheap to run and cheap to repair. But so is a Chevrolet Spark, and that is hardly the best car of the 21th century. : )

[Spotty1125]

@dude2106 But the thing is that the Chevrolet Spark is ugly and American. Jeremy Clarkson will tell you that Americans make rubbish cars, and I agree.

[sunonthewindow]

Disgusting. VW Beetle forever! (Thank goodness the one they dropped was a fibre glass shell)

[Idontgiveashytt]

PORSCHE LOST TO THE BEETLE!!!OMG

[Spotty1125]

@Idontgiveashytt That doesn't matter, since the Beetle was dropped. Rest in peace, Beetle.

[nismotech]

The Porsche wants a re-run!!

[amreis2006]

idiot video

[xDarcangel007]

beetle love ♥

[Benslappz95]

The Porsche turbo s goes from 0-60 in just 2.84 sek with lunch control, NOT 3.7!!

[I3estHer0]

@Benslappz95 lol lunch controle

[Adudethatlikesmusic]

4:03 man groaning??? uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[sakmess]

the stupidity still exists

[azn069]

I don't get the moral of this

[sunbeammeme]

@azn069 There is none! =b

[super71beetle]

6:52 :( a little piece of me just died

[gaivoron]

hahah maybe it would work is the temperature was like 30cel cooler tt would of actually worked.

[FordV8Supercar]

HOW DARE THEY KILL A PERFECTLY GOOD BEETLE!!!

[jomard67]

epic revs 1:18

[tazzmaniandevilboy42]

YAY! the beetle wins!

[IVIenac3]

that beatle was a sprayed up wreck :)

[EugeneCamilleri]

The '68 Charger R/T has more bhp, a better speed, and more torque than the camaro. I like camaros. They're fast, american muscle cars. But they don't have the same feel as a Dodge. No Chevvy can beat the Viper SRT ACR round any track. Pretty much the same as the '97 Corvette Super Sport can't beat my Viper.

[SummerTheFuzzy]

i don't think it's an original beetle, i think it's one of the crap mexican ones

[SupraRulz]

Should have dropped the Porsche instead...

[The91489]

ok that pissed me off you dont fuck up a classic beetle

[EugeneCamilleri]

@The91489 Beetles, wether classic or not, are ugly, and the worst thing to come out of Germany, Nazis included.

[The91489]

@EugeneCamilleri i think there fr better looking than anything germany has come out with in a very long time there diff more reliable to

[EugeneCamilleri]

@The91489 Better looking than the BMW M5 and M6? or the SLS AMG? or the Audi R8 or Porsche 911 Targa? I don't think so.

They're just as reliable as the new VWs, but the new VWs are better looking.

The beetle's ugly, underpowered, and a pathetic excuse for a car. They should all be dropped. Especially the new ones, they're even worse..

[The91489]

@EugeneCamilleri the new ones are horrible all new vw are unreliable so many eletrical problems and yes i think all the cars you just named look like they came out of a horses ass. there ugly and yea the bug was underpowered but if you look shit up b4 responding so you dont look stupid there is alot you can do to a vw bug engine an get incredable power from one enough power to beat a bmw m5-m6 in a drag enough to destroy the 911 an r8 in a drag look it up

[EugeneCamilleri]

@The91489 Enough to destroy an R8 in a drag? We're talking Gallardo power. There is no way a beetle engine could do that, and there is no way you'll fit a flat 6/V8 into that tiny engine space. fine me ONE unedited video where a beetle beats any of the cars you mentioned.

The VW Scirocco is an amazing car, my brother drives one, and when my viper comes up with problems (which is quite often), i use it. It's an unbelievably reliable and efficient car.

[The91489]

@EugeneCamilleri hey idiot your on fucking youtube look it up an yes ive seen many vw bugs on here with v8's ive also seen them with wrx sti 400 hp engines in them the car weighs so much less than those crap super cars power to weight my friend an i say again your on youtube look it up

[EugeneCamilleri]

@The91489 I did. Found nothing. And i challenge anyone with a beetle to drag race my viper. They will not win.

Also, the beetle is ugly. Disgustingly ugly.

[The91489]

@EugeneCamilleri no you didnt if you did you would have found videos an bro your viper is got to be one of the ugliest cars on the road my build civic could dominate it

[EugeneCamilleri]

@The91489 Up till now, I thought you are some twisted version of James may. Now i realise you're a pathetic excuse for a troll. A viper is the only good car to ever come out of America. The civic is asian crap.

[The91489]

@EugeneCamilleri theres no denying the viper is a fast car it just has no looks an yes civic are asian crap my point being is that dodge is junk as soon as the 1980's hit dodge died ther junk the camaro is an all american great classic muscle car that will never die

[EugeneCamilleri]

@The91489 The 1968 Dodge Charger is the greatest muscle car ever built. And the '97 Viper, or the Viper SRT ACR both aren't far behind. In fact, the SRT ACR beat cars like the Enzo, the Murcielago SV, and the Koenigsegg CCX around the Nuburgring.

Okay, you've dissed most of my favorite cars, like the M6, and the SLS, and the Viper. Name two cars that you find good looking (besides the beetle).

[The91489]

@EugeneCamilleri the 69 camaro ss with the 386 is a great car looks mean from the front an has an amazing stance and btw is worth more than all the vipers you just mentioned an i personally own and think the 86 iroc z z28 camaro was the best looking third gen ever created and so do many many other ppl and again its becoming a money car and rare at that when restored which is what im in the process of doing its worth quite a bit of money

[EugeneCamilleri]

@The91489 also, if you call the SLS AMG ugly, you have serious aesthetic issues. How can anyone call the SLS ugly and the beetle good looking? I mean fine, the SLS is no Lambo, but it's the best looking car to ever come out of germany. And the beetle's crap.

[BaronGerman]

Dear Top Gear next time give me the beetle:)!

[MrLwliang]

I don't really understand. They were both racing to the same point, and what if something went wrong and Hammod got squished? In a convertible as well.

[wyteninja]

what the hell was the point of this?

[cute33863]

;( POOR BEETLE

[Verliebt]

i feel sorry the newer beetle lost to the old beetle :-)

[tieintercepterpiolit]

That's a waste of a perfectly good beetle

[felipejg5]

poor beatle.... hahaha

[felipejg5]

hear in 6:50 haha ;)

[nickh1974]

What a load of bollocks, Hammond says The Porsche is moving about all over the place when its doing 130 mph AND HE'S GOT ONE HAND ON THE STEERING WHEEL??

[jovenmanosdtijera]

thats why I hate tg

[vwbeetle1954]

R.i.p 68 Vw beetle :(

[philz02]

what was the point of that?

[bienaimebelier]

poor beetle :(

[sejnitram]

Poor little Beetle.

[EgaoNoGenki]

There NEEDS to be an IN-BEETLE CAM!

No worries about trying to recover the damaged footage; couldn't it be live-transmitted?

[mlutzy]

haha beatles are garbage

[screwguy]

The Heli pilot sounds like Price in COD!

[MrMohammed420]

"2 turbos vs 4 decades of decay" LOL

[BuzZz1997]

it would have been awsome if the beetle would have crashed on the Porsche

[evanpan23]

What's the point to have such a stupid race? To show the rich of Top Gear? Why not drop the Prosche?

[georgebballer85]

he lost against gravity, not against a beetle!!

[BayAreaOrBust]

The presenter loses AGAIN. Can we have ONE race where the presenter wins with a good car?

[crazyvader100]

This is just shit and nonsense.The race wasnt fair

[WePkMuch]

Can someone explain me what a "flappy paddle gearbox" is? I laugh everytime Hammond says it hahaha

[dmbass313]

@WePkMuch paddle shifters for a manual transmission

[mrbogdan441]

@WePkMuch "flappy paddle gearbox" is a semi-automatic gearbox used in f1 cars and on expesive road cars..

[WePkMuch]

@mrbogdan441 Or simply DSG

[kocaeroguz]

i will never watch top gear again. they killed an innocent beetle for a shitty show.

[negerauto123]

that was a nice beetle :(

[raptor5900]

@negerauto123 ya but did you see and the bondo and i think it might be a mexacan because of the bumpers and the turn signals so it is not that bad if it had been jerman i would kill them

[SpecialAndNotDumb]

@negerauto123 Wake up ya clown , there is no such thing as a " nice beetle "

[negerauto123]

@SpecialAndNotDumb yep, sure..

[somuch721243]

i wish lindsay lohan inside

[Jah2070]

YEAH!! Fuck that BUG!!!!!!!!

[41mrbrendan]

splat

[raphaelavorodrigues]

you and your producers should drive the beetle in second race

[rafaelv30]

the show's producer is a son of the bitch, the eater´s fuck , miserable, bastards, . a vw not ever be destroyed.

[joey5847]

whats the point in this another wast of the TV licence

[henschelrocky]

Hijo de la reputa que los parió! Hay seres imbéciles, pero los estúpidos de esta serie pasaron todo límite.

[MckeanLT79]

Thats what you call a squashed bug

[pokerovacha]

Totally insane!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))))))))))



[alexgarcia380]

I wish you could race to a pimped beetle, in a drag race and I;ll bet the beetle wins and stays in better shape than the porsche....

[staccio80]

destroy a beetle VERY STUPID SHOW!!!

[jcreichle26]

beetle? rare? they made 26 million of them.

[spencera11]

HAHA u can hear the producer getting pissed off at around 4:04 "argghhhhh" as the board is blown down.

[DudefishD]

@spencera11 The akward moment when you're wrong, and people agree with you.

Dude that wasn't the producer, it just was the board that was making the noise.

[SSamu5]

hahahaha no la jodan pinches top gears

[khaled016]

actually in the drag race the Beetle should have done better but sure not better than the Porsche :)

[TheCheesyProductions]

If it was on asphalt, the porsche would've easily won

[VOCHO57]

I would have liked to crush the beetle porsche before the end.! VW Rules!

[Lukeschedel]

i like how they put a centipede out there just for that one shot

[germantoyzvdub]

i have a bug that can smoke that Porsche!!! with a VW motor in it!!



[juliabegulia]

why did they have to go to South Africa to do the second race?

[agustingtkr]

:( poor beetle

[yekshemesh4alig]

Dammit I love white wall tires.

[shitozeruel]

that is not professional or funny.. :(

[Noleafunburned]

Porsche,Bmw,Mercedes-Benz = <3 if you have a sack of nuts.

[alucard2307]

this is horrible... the beattle is a legend... how can you do that?

[laseroenigmosensor]

Someone who compares a car projected in 1936 to the modern and hundred times more expensive one has no fucking idea about motorization ...

[mahinsak]

most stupid program ever. thing that man could do

[donvodki]

@mahinsak stupid? stupid is having a big fat pig devouring tons of food... whats the name of the show again...? Man Vs Food?

[gunny426plymouth]

@donvodki hey aint fat... healthy but not skinny either also why have six pack when you can have the keg? the kegs a fuel tank for a sex machine!

[chug11649]

Man, i would have loved to have that old beetle

[raptorjesus959]

Poor beetle... it didnt deserve that... i have one and i know that are not racing cars, are only for take you from the point A to point B...

[krunal467]

an old beetle vs a new beetle(the porsche) :P

[ChaplainDMK]

@the beetle being in worse shape... you just drove a porche flat out on salt... i think it's not gonna fare much better when the salt settles evreywhere...

[jebus0000000]

 Porsche masturbo!

[vervolgstof]

for the test being appropriate they next shoud've release the porsche from the helicopter

[Shilenox]

Its a very good show but I hate this kind of tests.

[stuba006]

Poor beetle it's only a 1300

[MrDigby74]

VW shouldn't get the blame for how ugly the beetle looks, cos Porsche designed it.

[MrVideoMixers]

40.........41

[Nulz0r]

I love TopGear!

[SuperLoseruser]

GO PORSCHE!!!!!!!



[sunonthewindow]

VW Beetle is better than Britain's equivalent, the Morris Minor. With 24 Million Beetles and 25 million Golfs, who really won the war?

[illcounttill3]

i hate top gear for this they say they love cars what a load of bullshit

[benberkovic]

@illcounttill3 oh pLLLLLLLLLease!! a car is a bunch of organised metal!! it aint exactly a living thing or anything one could have emotional bonds with except if you like stickin it up the exhaust!! on the other hand... i give having fun, being silly and having a great time a slight advantage on my "What to feel strongly for" list, than to a heap of metal with wheels...

[MurryEB]

@benberkovic youre a pussy

[Luis2002able]

why would you do that to a old beetle do it with an ugly dodge ram at least its not as rare as a beetle

[MacOSXMason]

@Luis2002able Dodge Rams are amazing trucks, now go away nine year old.

[ransferd]

@Luis2002able rams are bad ass, more like drop a ford WOOOO XD

[LamboK28992]

@Luis2002able since when are old beetles rare

[bjamo0]

@Luis2002able They made 21.5 million Beetles, they're hardly rare.

[KBear43rd]

@Luis2002able Beetle's aren't rare...

[TheWatzitooya]

@Luis2002able I know, seriously...

Old Beetles are cool, new beetles suck. Why not use a newer beetle?

[BHShaman]

@Luis2002able Beetles are not rare in the world, just the US where it could no longer meet safety standards as a Type 1.

The Volkswagen Type 1, widely known as the Volkswagen Beetle or Volkswagen Bug, is an economy car produced by the German auto maker Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003. With over 21 million manufactured[

[santora1957]

@Luis2002able I thought it was funny as hell.

[darulm]

Porsche is the ultimate car in my opinion it beats even the likes of ferrari,lambor and others.beetle??not even close!porsche for life!

[PL3690]

Good job on destroying a beetle dickheads!

[tootsiejoon]

Poor beetle.....

[shakashark]

:'(



[Painmiracle]

I'd take a Beetle over some gaudy-ass porsche any day.

[lliang77]

what a pointless stunt

[michaelcort83]

An original beetle in fully restored trim may just about pass as a classic. But the majority dont. The arent rare, they were not a technologically advanced for their time and they did not not have a wow factor when knew. Nor are they considered pretty by the majority or quick for their time.

Most people dont know real classics. I could put money on no one knowing what an ERA R14 is.

[FIREBALLx0xL9Spyd3R]

How many shows/youtube videos are there of people mindlessly destroying cars? And we wonder why we are in a depression.......o wait topgear is over the 'pond'.....so they don't care.....

[Thaos1]

Hey, instead of destroying anymore nice beatles, how about give 'em to me? Or anyone else for that matter.

[YUNODERP]

my penis is oozing puss

[WisdomeSage1989]

Go Beetle GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MacGyver920]

OMFG get over it and stop complaining about the stupid Beetle for fuck sake. What's the point of watching this show if you have no sense of humour at all, and is only just gonna cry over a stupid, little red car which the Top Gear presenters hate, and which they sell EVERYWHERE beeing dropped from a helicopter. I mean, how sad is your lives?

[MrTyronePimp]

Honestly standing side by side they look almost the same... If a martian came from space I don't think they could pick out the better car based on looks alone.

[kermit150261]

They killed Herby bastard ....

[peanuts2105]

A car endorsed by Hitler deserves a shallow grave. Auf wiedersehen VW Beetle

[UberMan5000]

@peanuts2105 The Porsche 911 is basically a souped-up sporty Beetle, designed by the same man and with the same layout. Does that mean Hitler indirectly "endorsed it"?

Besides, it wasn't built FOR Hitler, the dude just built it, Hitler looked at it and thought it would be a decent car for the German populace. It's not like he had a whole hell of a lot of other choices at the time.

[SuperMrsf]

2:15 porsche drives the wrong way

[ItsJuuulBitches]

Noooooooooooooo, that sweet, cute Beetle :'(

[rellikagem]

: This really hurts my beetle loving heart...

[MsCrappants]

you know what peple i think the beetle is faster cheaper and looks beter id take it i dont care if its ruiened
