  • 'think fiat 500 small'

    doesn't he mean...think toyota IQ small?

  • Lexus CT200h = Wow, an overpriced and rebadged and slightly altered Toyota Matrix. Lexus - The Passionate Pursuit of Rebadging Toyotas.

  • especially when the brakes suck ass

  • Lexus customers and owners to me are complete morons. Paying all this money for an overpriced Toyota. Toyota is laughing all the way to the bank while silly Americans think they're driving a real luxury car. I wouldn't even touch a Toyota after my disastrous experience with my '97 Camry (biggest POS ever). Toyota fanboys make fun of my cars calling them a  POS etc. but my cars RAPE a POS Toyota any day of the week. 1985 Pontiac 6000 and '73 Dodge Coronet Brougham. Toyota can go fuck itself.

  • @jakemiller5000 My dad has an ES330. He got it used off a lease and it's working perfectly. I've been in a Camry before and comparably the build quality is the same but the quality of the materials is so much better. There's also a ton of cool features in there and it works just like it has all this time.

  • @AudiABTr8

    The ES is based on the Camry chassis and like all Lexus shares buttons and stuff from the Toyota parts bin. Lexus is not a real luxury brand to me. Look at the European and American luxury brands how they started out. They defined what a luxury brand is. Rebadging some cheap Toyota isn't luxury. The car might have luxury features but the brand, Lexus, is just empty and pretentious. Your dad would be better off selling that gussied up Camry and getting say an Audi A6. Much nicer.

  • @jakemiller5000 You forgot one detail. Lexuses, while more expensive than Toyotas, are still less expensive than rivals from BMW, Audi, etc. I will agree that Lexus is not a true luxury brand, but Audi is really just rebadged VW's with improved parts, too. BMW is not the same, but Lexus is still a nice brand, just not full luxury. At least they're starting to do their own thing with the LF-A.

  • @AudiABTr8

    1) Lexus has raised prices and is in some cases more expensive than their rivals

    2) Audi's are not rebadged VW. They use VW platforms, engines and transmissions. Some Lexus are Toyota's with a Lexus badge (GX, RX, LX...)

    3) I don't see how the LF-A will make Lexus any better. It's an impressive car but Lexus lacks the cars that matter like a Z4/SLK competitor, an estate IS/GS, fuel-efficient engines for their lineup etc. Lexus to me is a big mess of pretentious crap. No offense.

  • @jakemiller5000 Well okay, I guess that's your idea of it.

  • @AudiABTr8

    These are FACTS. Most Lexus fanboys back up their overpriced Toyota's with bullshit made-up crap. One guy on another video told me that Lexus stands for style and innovation. I nearly laughed my ass off when I read that comment. Lexus and style? An ES350 is stylish? LMAO! And Lexus and innovation don't belong in the same sentence. You want innovation, both technical and safety? Go to Mercedes. Hell, brands like Citroen and Renault had and have more innovation that Toyota/Lexus!

  • Beep fail at 2:44

  • I like the lexus, only the back door shape is ugly and the wheels are too small.

    .......

    About the aston, this car doesn't do it for me, but is fun to drive as you basically say: my other car is a REAL aston martin :)

    ........

    btw. what genius thought of placing an iphone dock there, you can't see the other screen anymore!

  • so basically you're just driving the Aston because it's NAME starts with aston martin?

  • No, if you listened to the video they said:

    The Cygnet will be sold to (previous) owners of an Aston Martin.

    Aston Martin does this to lower the average carbon footprint of its riders.

  • Comment removed

  • Lexus is not that bad. But please someone shoot the person who came up with the cygnet. I don't care how nice the interior that's bullcrap.

  • really previous owner beep those damn aston martin owners and let the toyota owners at it. pedals ehh my cousin was leaving her parking space so she started her 2008 lexus is 250 and put it in reverse. it went forward and the brakes weren't working so she used her emergency brake and restarted it wow

  • ¿"aston martin cygnet"? It is just a toyota iq with some botox¿40000 euros?¿are they mad? ¿who's gonna pay that for a dishwasher with some posh badges?God, we're goin' mad!

  • wow,i have a pos but that guy has me beat

  • UGLY LEXUS BUMPERS THUMBS DOWN

  • VOLVO! VOLVO! VOLVO!!!

  • 40,000EUROS!!! WTF!!!!!!! I could get a nice evo, BMW, or Jag for that

  • lol in reference to the aston, ummm if u have more money then brains get one lol but u have to own an aston to get one so i guess that will most likely be the case lol but they take a 10,000 dollar car and throw another what 10,000 into it and charge 40,000 euros for it lol u know ur just paying for the sticker on the grill and steering wheel when...

  • Quick call the Guild of Calamitous Intent and tell the Monarch that Evgeni Plushenko stole his hair cut.

  • Derek, my wife says you don't look good in that shirt (color). Take That! Wait 'til she sees the white belt.

  • haha well what color would your wife prefer

  • She said "real men wear pink", and laughed.

  • DEREK D DEREK D DEREK D!

  • @kidpop23 When did he come back to FLD?

  • @EeZee360 some time ago. but still... im just saying lol

  • Cool lol. Cause I stopped watching when he left, it was so boring and crap haha

  • You forgot to bleep out one of the "shitties".

  • that lexus looks amazingg and wow.. i wish i kept my old car and threw it over a cliff xD.. and i dont know how aston martin can make such an ugly, hideous car... it looks like piece of shit on wheels

  • god that aston martin looks disgusting!

  • wow that Aston Martin Cygnet looks awful awkward

  • gettin close to 800 yeah

  • Cygnet is WAAAAY smaller then the FIAT 500 btw

  • yes the Volvo! hahah what a piece of shit

  • nice how you got royal purple as a sponsor, their shit is legit

  • the lexus looks sorta looks like the lexus is

  • nice shirt john gosslin

  • The CT200h looks amazing in the flesh !

  • Looks Great !

  • Derek u said that Lexus was not having gas pedal problems but to toyota owns Lexus and a couple of them have actully been recalled.

  • That was an Abarth. Not a Fiat. Same thing, essentially, but, the distinction should be made.

  • Aston Martin Cygnet. Why.

  • I think FLD is the same again, now that Derek doesnt look all depressed. Only thing I hate are all the interuptions from JF in the background, so annoying. That new Lexus looks too Toyota like. Infact all of Lexus's cars are starting to look like Toyotas. That Astin Martin Cygnet still looks like a Toyota IQ. All they did is redesign the back, change the grill and logo and add grill holes all over the place. UGLY....... The interior is ugly too and red is my favorite color.

  • FLD just does'nt blow my skirt up

    anymore..trish please

  • Is that Aston a joke? I really hope so, because that thing is disgusting.

  • wow that aston martin is fugly so is that new lexus, wtf

  • the CT200h looks ilke a facelifted hatchback IS200.

  • I know its been said thousands of times before, but it's REALLY great to have you back, DD. You make the show!

  • gay shirt, good show. go for 1k episodes imo!

  • i think that lexus is hideous. looks like a toyota matrix

  • most likely... it IS a toyota matrix, just rebadged and hybrid-ed up.

  • Toyota has the right idea with that thing.

    While I still think hybrid systems have no place on a race car (unless they actually improve performance, like that new Porsche), I could see myself driving that thing. Hybrids are never going to be popular unless there are sporty and attractive ones availalable: not everybody wants to drive a Prius or Insight.

  • new lexus! *yawn*

    aston charging twice the price toyota does for the iq and doing nothing with the engine? Kinda pointless. I say put the V8 in it and see how long it lasts!

    oh, and the royal purple ad is rather annoying. I prefer the slightly less annoying auto wallart

  • Paying someone to destroy your old products so they'll buy new ones, is BRILLIANT!!! XD and not what you'd call bad entertainment either ^^,

  • Id like to see auto D grow a hybrid mullet with his fauxhawk. That would be the ticket

  • aston martin!!!!!!! i am in tears! (not really) but u have destryoed your name. that "thing" is certainly NOT a gentlemans ride.

  • DUCT TAPE FIXES ALL! Even broken teleprompters.

  • hmmm.... aston would prolly make more money if they sell it to general public

  • No Aston Martin...you're doing it wrong.

  • it really is derek d's delivery that makes FLD what it is :)) awesome :))

  • Derek wearing a v-neck FTW

  • What happened to the good FLD? ya know, we actually got a decent amount of news? I mean shit, youre getting advertisers now, wouldnt that mean you could give us longer episodes? what the crap?

  • 40K euros = 54K USD

    I could buy a bunch of smart cars and throw all over a cliff. And still feel good knowing it was a better use of 54K, than buying that ugly Cygnet.

  • Smart is crap,trust me.

  • @ BRIGH58 you wouldnt drive one with a 1000cc motorcycle engine lol.....

  • dude, you do look like the us skater.

  • wow. a commercial. u guys did so good without them

  • I'm pretty sure they have some bugdet difficulties and derek d got canned. comercials are needed now. You gotta put up with them.

  • duct tape ftw!! hell yeah.

  • Ladies and gentlemen, the gold medalist and Olympic champion in the Mens Figure Skating competion, representing the United States Derek DeAngelis. *applause*

    3:50 Nice pose. You looking sexy on the ice!

  • An Aston Martin can NEVER be a wannabe I agree it is ugly but NO Aston Martin has been a wannabe and NO Aston Martin will ever be a wannabe

  • shirts to small dooooood!!!!!!

  • ZR1 IS KING!!!!!

  • 40,000 for a fucking smart car wanna be? WTF??????????

  • that Lexus looks so WRX STI-ish

  • what if it IS a WRX, subaru is partly owned by toyota, could be a partial rebadge....

  • well toyota does own part of suburu,

  • look aston had a baby! and aston goes from bachelor to unattractive dad in 3.2 seconds

  • Noooooooo! Not the 244!

    The trim and headlight lense falling off/out is a common volvo problem.

    Its a standard Trans! Rare! Sell it and get $500 or just add a turbo real cheap! Even a cliff can't kill a Volvo, check out 80s 740 ads.

    It better be rusted to hell or something!

  • Hey Derek, F1 is back to Montreal. What about you came here and make a special week of the race? Look from this angle: which other F1 race do you have that is a mere 5 hours drive away from New York?

  • that lexus looks a lot like a mazda 3~...

  • hyyyy short vid

  • No teleprompter=no shakedown

    YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • lol......

  • someone is jealous, LMFAO

    yeah yeah drive your 1 liter car on your expensive gas (not that I think ours is too cheap)

    and I don't drive a truck, just a vette

  • man that royal purple ad got me nostalgic. that was like the first ad FLD ever had.

  • Garland your volvo had better win lol

  • Lexus+hybrid+1.8L=Fun?

    Hahaha

    Don't get me wrong, Lexus suspension is super soft and their cars have amazing refinement both inside and out but fun is not something in their nature.

    IS-F? Doesn't even have manual transmission. I'll go with an M3, RS4, or the mad C63 AMG.

    IS350? BMW 335i and Infiniti G37 clearly far better cars.

    LF-A? Well I'd hope if you're spending 350k+ on a car that it would have some sort of fun factor.

    The only high expectations I have from Toyota/Lexus is the FT-86.

  • Their pedals could stick, piece of shit Toyotas.

  • @1217tho piece of shit american go suck on the tailpipes of your large truck trailer trash

  • Wow bud own stock in Toyota? Nice insult too man, I will go suck on a car?

  • Really Aston Martin? Really? You guys had the choice to make any car and you all came up with that? Really?

  • That Aston Marting Cygnet is just ridiculous but the interior looks pretty badass.

  • Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • the IQ is a fair amount smaller than a 500. They are 3+1. the EU sucks for making these stupid rules about having a stupidly low CO2 g/km output accross their entire range. they are making cars like this exist. However Aston is being smart, this will offset the real cars and they don't technically have to sell them, just has to be available. Why else would it warrant a 27000 euro premium over a normal iQ? Who would buy it? and igf they do it would have been worth it for them.

  • The Lexus looks like a Lexus version of the Matrix.

  • liked the click and clack music at the end---do you think you could get them to do a guest shot sometime? Good show Dereck!!!

  • The CT200h looks like a revamped version of the IS300 SportCross, I love it...

  • that is a really nice interior for the aston martin

  • Comment removed

  • there are a lot less comments now that theirs no commenter of the week, just saying..... cool story bro, i know

  • Aston Martin should have created a separate brand just for that car...this smart car wannabe can't do anything but tarnish their name.

  • Wow, that aston martin looks like a waste of time...

  • people are stupid. the pedal isnt the fucking problem. it is the drive by wire system. there is interference between the accelerator and the computer, causing it to accelerate out of control. even the CEO said that. stop mis informing people.

  • "It's the only shitty Volvo there"...

    All Volvo's are shit!

  • The Lexus looks like a current Subaru WRX which is hideous, therefore this car is also ugly!!

    AS for the Cygnet, are we sure we want a Toyota as the base? Either way if they give me the keys to that, or Abarth I wouldn't mind. OH but you need a Aston before you get the Cygnet? That is just gay. I can understand a discount, but a requirement? LOL Good luck Aston!

  • @TripleZ89 What kind of car do you drive? If you even drive one.

    WRX Owner

  • I am not the only one who thinks it is ugly, and if you don't like my opinion then sod off.

  • @TripleZ89 Good thing your opinion don't matter and you never answer my question douche ball. I guess you walk every where so you have to hate on other people cars.

    GET A LIFE!

  • that aston interior is too damn sexy. ive never said this before, or even thought about it for that matter, but i wanna drive that car naked.

  • my shitty volvo is even worse

  • That is not an Aston. That thing is fucking hideous. I've seen prettier thing fall out of my Dog's ass. This is bullshit. I'm pissed.

  • Im sorry but that new Aston Cygnet is such a waste. When I think of Aston, I do NOT think small stupid city car. I'd take a Fiat 500 Abarth over that in a second!

  • The Lexus CT200h. Lexus is a little late to the party when Honda revealed there CRZ awhile back. The CRZ has sport mode setting and comes with 6spd manual. Lets see what the CT200H offers. Hopefully it offers a manual transmission. If it doesn't, who would pay more for a CT200H when they can get a CRZ. The CRZ is probably going to be cheaper anyways. Personally I think the CRZ is much more sportier looking than the CT200H.

  • Why are some of the people saying the IQ is the Cygnet? They are not the same cars. The Cygnet is based on the IQ. They are both the same idea, but both very different cars in terms of specs. The only reasons the Cygnet goes for 40K Euros is because of the brand, and did you see that interior? It doesn't look cheap.

  • Ha! He said "petrol" instead of gasoline. Hehehe. The cuteness is tremendous.

  • USF1 is DEAD..

  • Duck tape ftw

  • CR-Z > CT200h

    As for Toyota making something exciting, that's impossible. All the newer Toyotas are extremely bland and boring. I'm more excited over a glass of water or new Honda than any new Toyota. The FT-86 is Toyota's only hope (that is, if they get it right and have a manual-transmission only).

    Oh, and the Honda CR-Z owns the Lexus, since the Honda has the proper 3 pedals, a manual transmission.

    And I'd gladly take that "s****y Volvo" and turn it into a rally car.

  • An iQ is considerably smaller than a FIAT 500, and alot less comfortable to travel in. That interior does look pretty sweet though, it's been along time since I've seen a luxury Small car, Though I'd still rather have a 205 Gentry or an Allegro Vanden Plas.

  • The stupidest thing I find about the cygnet is why the dumbasses at Aston Martin would get nit-picky about selling it to previous owners only. Who in their right minds would go from a DBS to a Toyota IQ? Nobody, thats right. Good luck selling your little piece of shit.

  • Meh upgraded matrix

  • why the hell would aston martin build a freaking mini car?

    and the Lambo crash sucks pretty bad.

    TVR should totally bring out a new car tho. would be awesome

  • It was just done as a fun project. Only something like 500 will be made and their only going to be sold to people that allready own an Aston Martin.

  • damn crisis, teleprompters are made to a budget now

  • Man, I wish I had a friend I could throw from a cliff for 30,000 grand, don't know about the Volvo though; I mean; an old Volvo still safer than a new Toyota and that's actually true.

  • If I had an Aston Martin then why the hell would I want to buy that stupid little Cygnet?! If Aston Martin was going to sell it on a global basis I still wouldn't buy it and I love Aston Martins. Why? Because it looks like shit. Who cares about the inteorior quality? No one but the owner and friends get to see it. The Cygnet is nothing more than a pathetic Smart car with a better interior. Aston Martin usually makes cool cars and then this shit came along! What were they thinking? Its so uncool!

  • "It is basically an Aston Martin branded Toyota IQ", "It is small, like Fiat 500 small". Wouldn't it be easier to just say "it is Toyota IQ small"?

  • That Lexus looks hot. wonder if an F sport is in the works. Or maybe some TRD Upgrades.

  • figured u guys would mention the guy who traded in his bugatti for the ZR1. that was a funny story from yesterday

  • you shouldn't wear v necks

  • @lilfagnut I think it's not a V-neck, I think the microphone is just pulling it down.

  • TOM A CAMEOOOO WOOOOT

  • gotta love telapromters

  • aww damn it who let aston martin get into the weed cabinet??

  • @c0c0asauce

    sorry mate that was me

  • who cares about the pedals... XD

    lots of problem with those muscle cars too...

  • why have the episodes become smaller????

    why why why

  • That guy with the volvo lives just a few minutes away from me lol, it's sweet that you put the story on FLD!! good job

  • aston martin takin the mini statues??? funny... and haha mad funny when the glass broke! hopefully no bad luck!

  • that aston is just so wrong.....

  • Seriously the interior of that Aston was just TOO nice for that car. But still seeing as it is an Aston "smart" it's still a nice piece of shit.

  • lol shorty lol

  • Still don't know why they're spending so much time and money on the Cygnet. If they think the future of automobiles is small and efficient, why would people want to pay a premium for a re-worked Toyota? Actually I'm sure some people would buy it just for the interior (which is really nice), but I just don't think it makes much sense at this point.

  • congrats FLD on the 787th episode.

  • Vote the volvo!!! its the worst car in the world!!! i know because ive unfortunately been in it a lot!! please people cliff this hunk of shit!

  • @butch603 Don't you be badmouthin' my Swedish brick. Mine did over 500,000 km. Supreme reliability.

  • hahha yeah i know, but his is anything but that trust me. the quarter pannels are actualy duct tape

  • That Aston Martin looks like a POS on the outside.

  • that aston is sooooooooooo ugly.. first ugly aston i ever see

  • Ohhh yeah Cliff my ride. cools lol. I was at the autoshow when I heard it lol

  • v neck

  • why? aston martin why? that thing is so hideous

  • Why do you bleep shit, then say shitty lol

  • it was a slight oversight...it was suppose to be bleeped ha

  • MOTHA FUCK THE PIECE OF SHIT LEXUS!

    THE CONCEPT LOOKS 900x BETTER!

    MAKE THE GOD DAMN CONCEPTS, BITCH!

  • aren't concepts supposed to look better? and the real car is always a watered down concept.

  • that may be, BUT IT FUCKING SUCKS, MAN!

    I hate the automotive industry, why do they do us like this?

    TEASE US WITH A SEXY CONCEPT THEN GIVE US A LUKE WARM BOWL OF VOMIT & SHIT...

    then CHARGE U UP THE ASS.

  • Oh, Lexus... When will you ever be interesting in terms of design?

    Alright, I WILL give props to the IS series

    but I would never, ever buy one.

    I'm too loyal towards German luxury to consider it..

  • THAT VOLVO IS MY FRIENDS CAR!!! :D

  • Look at time 1:48 you will get what I mean. Totally a Matrix.

  • I was thinkin' a Mazdaspeed3.

  • Anyone else think the Lexus kind of looks like a dressed up Toyota Matrix? The roof line the length of the car. They may have tweaked it some but I bet its a Matrix.

  • that's probably exactly what it is

  • it only says 774 in the box at the top?

  • haha!! forgot to bleep "shitty" @ 2:44

  • My take is Aston is selling the Cygnet to current Aston owners probably because no one else would spend 40,000+ GBP (60K USD?) on, well, that rodent of a vehicle... although YES the interior is BADASS.

  • Derek im takin up figure skating as well. Not only did that guy buy a DBS, he's dating fucking Nastia Liukin. Yeah, time to rethink my life

  • yeah she's hot

  • HAHA! Tyler Conrad! well, thats me :). except its Tyler Ritcey-Conrad. But i dont even care cause i appreciate that. please vote for the volvo, such a bad car. Fast Lane Daily Rocks! Thanks Derek!

  • 70K for a Toyota iQ? Nah, I'm good.

  • yes lovely grammar i got..

  • evgeni plushenko, is the better skater than lysachek :D

  • whats the point aston martin? why even build the cygnet? thats like a really hot babe getting big fake boobs so she can be more attractive even though she doesnt need them. Aston martin line doesnt need this. whats the point? -_-

  • the Aston Martin Cygnet is the most expensive car in its category.you need to spend atleast 80,000GBP to buy the cheapest aston sport car in order to be able to spend another 20,000GBP on the Aston Martin Cygnet

  • OK for you blind people The Lexus is a Subaru Impreza WRX STi 330S with L badge on it and a hybrid in the front.

  • Thats what I was thinkin.
