Saab Buyer, Audi A5 Sportback - Fast Lane Daily - 17Jun09

[GPatuleiaMarques]

The rival for the CLS is the A7 Sportback, not the A5 Sportback... I hate inaccuracy.

[mellowdalyricist]

saabs are ugly and dont really have a selling point. you dont buy saabs because of luxury or sportiness so i wonder what koeniggsegg has planned for the tasteless automaker

[supervetteC6]

i think this needs to be said. FUCK ALL HATERS!

[reytrtrytytrytytrytr]

fuck u

[Mechwarrior90]

stick to the cars not the jokes

[ericrookie]

fuck u shit head if u don't like the jokes fuuck fag

[Mechwarrior90]

get a life, reading wht u wrote made my day, holy crap lol loser XD

[PorscheGTthree]

They showed the wrong VW engine. The 1.4L twincharger TSI motor won the award, not the TDI diesel motor that was shown. Just an FYI.

[vetteburna]

wow.. great acomplishment for a 36 year old.. all hes gotta do now is get saab in mass production and pay off his new bill..

[esaedvik]

Koenigsaab FTW \o/

[175myles]

LOL @ the idiot that got owned in the "road rage" clip gets angry at some guy then gets punched out!

[ooThEgg]

Go ahead, bash Saab all you want. You might want to include that it's soon-to-be former parent is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy, next time the story comes up. GM made Saab an unprofitable unit by hardly supporting them and jacking their designs for other brands, mainly Cadillac. When you see a SRX, you see a lot of the early 9-7x ideas.

[ilalfisto]

The fact is - Saab of the 96, 99, 900 etc no longer exists. Like Alfa, it doesn't engineer its own designs, but merely develops its owner's platforms.

Good luck to Koenigsegg, but I don't see where the engineering is going to come from...

[deviance87]

is it just me or is derek's voice quiet relative to the rest of the video today? I had to keep adjusting my volume just to hear him :/

[Z3RO0RD1E]

Haha, my hometown has the best drivers! Go Pittsburgh!

[cheesecakexmod]

i live in miami 95% of the people do not speak english and theres NEVER a day here that theres no car acedents or people geting hit or run over by cars. most of the drivers here are dumasses

[turbo311]

Go VW! Can't wait to get a TDI. Congrats NY! Try doing that in Phoenix, nobody does because everyone's got guns.

[torxMonster]

haha, like nobody in NY has Guns? anyway, guns are for pussies!

[turbo311]

People have guns everywhere, but AZ has more per capita than Texas! Honk your horn and yell enough times here you're likely to see a few and you may not live to tell about it, not likely to happen in NY. Nice 311 quote btw.

[ericrookie]

fuck arizona

[turbo311]

agreed

[PorscheGTthree]

Hey don't go out and buy a TDI on account of seeing this video.  They messed up and showed a pic of the TDI engine but it's the 1.4L TSI Twincharger Engine (turbo & supercharged) that won the award, not the diesel. Though the TDI diesel engines from VW are just as impressive!

[shoh92]

lmaooo has anyone noticed the background music... i have been watching the show for a while but i never pay attention to background music lmaooo

[PrintNameHere]

Tuck your fucking shirt in

[LittleMike84]

Go lay down, I am sure its past your bed time there old timer.

Either that-- or you're just.. really anal, and rude.

[bandiito16]

You should really sort out the audio. I was listening with my earphones and the freaking shakedown commercial almost made me go deaf. Someone might sue you one day. Plus i'm getting tired of always regulating the volume during the show.

[DrJCCC20]

HOld on supercharged and turbocharged

[ollustration]

when the heck are you going to show your solstice coupe???? do a test drive thing , show interior/exterior etc. I have been wanting to get one, but havent they STOPPED making them after on a couple months? that means theres probably only a couple hundred that have ever and will ever be built?

[ollustration]

nevermind... I just saw thursdays show and saw you guys filming the pontiac on the break.. NICE! when will it be up? be sure to put in the title....

[triplexxxsatyr]

Koenigsegg has a quality product on its hands. They should do well.

[PKimpact]

C'mon D! That twitter kick was lacking! Kick it harder next time :D

[hoggmark]

Did DD say the mini interior would be fit for the queen mum? So like a hearse then?

[DCAdams]

4.59 to 5:05 totally hysterical. Anybody banging on the hood of my car would have that coming too ! Hey, why the heck can't we get the cool VW Scirroco with the 1.4L Diesel in the US? When are we gonna get cool, Eco cars in the States?

[sirtristan01]

yeah, the 1.4 TSI is pullin' 170 horses, man!

in race version they tweaked it to 200!

[PKmode]

The 1.4 is gas/petrol, not Diesel.

[DieHard3188]

Thank God! I've been holding back on a Mini to wait until BMW's contract with Hasbro was up. RR Plushing out my future Mini would be much more than I had suspected.

[dtsmucker]

There's parts of Manchester and Liverpool where, if you "flip the bird" out of your car window, all that happens is you loose your watch!! Thievin' buggers..

[winiblues]

woo hoo.. my golf gt's engine won car of the year.. i get 670 to 700 klms off a full tank of premium...

[saab1255]

if Rolls-Royce is building a Mini car. I think few years down the road , there will be a Rolls-Royce's Van

[Rawr454]

Wow yeah, 4:07, looks like a senor citizens car, everything is humongous and 'easy to read.' It's like that Jitterbug cellphone lol.

[aziankid12345]

when is the audi rs5 coming out

[lowrthnu92]

" Humpdai Genesis Coupe " LoLz

[adamwighton]

Ive just realised something. All these different body styled Audi's and bmw's arent as weird as i had first thought. think about the original Mazda 6. Sedan, Sports Hatch and Wagon. 3 cars, 3 different rear window angles, and 3 slightly different specs. Perhaps Audi and BMW are making too much noise about nothing. Why not just build an A5, and then say its available in a choice of body styles? Rather than Audi Avante, Audi Sedan, Audi somewhere in between, Audi I saw you coming...

[duffman61089]

woooow was that a flavor flav clock in the dash of that car!!!!

[Elmo187]

how many times have you stolen quotes from WebRidesTV?

[duffman61089]

obviously none bc i rarely go to webrides and that was never said on webrides

[Elmo187]

if you rarely goto WRTV, then how do you know it wasn't said on there?

oh and yes, it has. it was said by Jeremy Lusk during the Mini Clubman S vs. Go-kart episode.

[duffman61089]

link it to me and ill believe you, because i checked when you said it and i never saw anything near it.

[Elmo187]

you can't post links in the comment section. but just search Clubman S vs. Go-kart at WRTV.

[i8932]

That was a wimpy kick, do a Sonic Boom

[JonnyCee91]

Where can i get the video of the black guy fightin with the taxi driver??

[patrickcharm]

Shakedown in da toilet....i'ma watch tht show!!!

[pimplowrider916]

That would be funny if they put a V12 on a mini..

[mayinss]

I think saab will do great in the hands of koenissssssseeeeeeegggggg*** At least they will be ligth weight and have lots of power and then will fit a huge rear wing by advise of Top Gear handling crash course... good luck ...

Don't forget Top Gear will begin this sunday for its season 13...

[ztunelover]

SWEEEEEEEEEET i didnt know top gear would be starting this sunday. FLD you guys should announce that. jeez imagine if i missed that. mmmmmmmmmmmm chicken

[JonnyCee91]

Is that season 13 in the US???

[TSWRgtivr6Vdub]

new york really isn't worth the pain in the ass from all the dipshit drivers... i went there once and instantly became as aggressive as they were... you have to be inorder to move anywhere in that damn city!

[irocz0r]

Hey Derek D, that was a pretty embarrassingly girlish kick there on that Twitter box today. Trying to show off those new kicks? Soooo 2004.

[serendipityuk]

Derek D - The Seat Ibiza is not pronounced Ibizzza but Ibitha. The Z is pronounced with 'th'. Just like the Spanish island of Ibiza. Just a little FYI for ya!

[flawns]

THATS my America for you!

the land where we cure 1 illness and give you 10 more =]

[Spyker88]

Well, can't wait to see some much better looking cars coming from Saab now that Koenigsegg has them. I'm completely lost on what exactly is a Utilitarian Sportback, even more so that I am on what a four door coupe is:/ Congrats to VW on the award, and it looks like my planned trip to New york is going to be put on hold for quite some time. And the last part cracked me up, especially the many symptoms of taking Zoloft. As a guy who isn't a doctor, I do not recommend Zoloft for anyone.

[afgr173]

dear koinisegg errrr spelling fail, please take saab back into the ridicoulus days, love afgr1991

[3cl3c71k0r]

Great ending!

[JohnMarineTube]

Hump day! That car in the coffee mug looks like a Ford Mustang Mach 3 concept car. Best of luck to Koenigsegg in all of this. Never liked Saab, but this would be great. LOVE Audi, and that A5 looks SWEET! Congratulations to Volkswagen on a job well done. Nice kick while wearing some nice kicks, Derek D.! :) I'm sure Leo Parente will have PLENTY on Le Mans 2009 and that lovely MotoGP finish at Catalunya. Rolls-Royce Minis? Sounds awesome! I'll be careful driving in NYC (when I get a license).

[mj23polairs]

you guys make a pertty good show keep it up

[1warpig]

German Engineering FTW

Suck it Japan

[bulletkip]

5:00

CLOCKED

[adman4993]

according to the NY times, its 600 Million, NOT Billion

[comedicd]

EXACTLY, that's why I said MILLION not billion, listen again

[therealdvpringle]

Yeah, I heard million. 600 billion would be batshit mad.

[xCanadianBaconx]

i think Koenigsegg should get the engine of the year award. there 4.7LV8 makes more then 200hp per liter and can run on bio fuel. u look at me and say thats not green!

[spooled87]

dooooood! sign me up for a v12 mini coop!!! i think the whole 'have rolls spiff up my mini' idea is moderately retarded

[exoticcarboy]

me!

[augustsky555]

derek deangelis= dd= double d? maybe?

[jasamappa]

acutally its good today compared to the worst I've expirienced from FLD

[TaSManiaC88]

I hope saab led by koenigsegg starts making some proper rearwheel driven cars..

[MiniCooperBenzo]

Ehhh idk about this mini cooper with the rolls royce

[malhaar123]

who in their right state of mind, would buy a rolls royce furnished mini cooper??!!!

[Kuroshine08]

apparently the beatles and quite a few reach people in the 70's

[koukicrisp]

No way tell me they didn't buy Saab using Gov't loans. I surely hope taht they will amke that profit back. I'm sure they can do it though...i hope they can.

[Kuroshine08]

Swedish government loans, not US

[koukicrisp]

Oh I know that. I am saying that I don't think that it's smart or wise for anyone to make unnecessary purchases on gov't loans right now. I mean they could have gotten investors, bank loans, etc. anything but gov't loans that further cripples your economy and makes the citizens pony up the cash for your transactions.

[midgetman433]

lol... doing a scene in a bathroom? damm!!! how broke are you guys?

[koukicrisp]

Koenigsaab FTW! I'd love to seem them enter into the mass-produced sport-luxo makret. I would love to see them inject some soul into the Saab line-up. I truly think that with Saab expertise in materials and craftsanship with the sport knowledge of "Koeni", that it should be a great BMW competitor.

[rizla420]

lol jus saw derek in a BarelyPolitical video... Awesome cameo

[teamsleepnine]

koenigsegg taking over saab on goverment loan is just suicide

[bottomlayer]

they can't be worse than gm

[bottomlayer]

who booed me?

gm RUINED saab!!!!!!!!!

K's-egg can't POSSIBLY be worse

[quwers]

Stooooootgart. Brilliant.

[evo8bear]

hey derek we havent heard much about your car, let us know how shes running.

[comedicd]

FRIDAY!!!! it'll be FLDetoured, but shhhh don't tell anyone

[evo8bear]

awsome

[rockit91]

ive always loved koenigzsegg for their awsome performing cars and i also like saab, awsome plus like = RLY AWSOME

[liniepunct]

did you just said insomnia and sleepiness ? WTF?

[Elmo187]

its called a joke. you should learn how to not take stuff seriously over the internet.

[liniepunct]

8-| yes I know .. just pointed that out.

[AirplaneEatsSky23]

Goddamn I wish I could afford an Audi A5, or any (fairly new) Audi. I'm only 16. :'(

[hteverow]

but think about it, a ferrari 308 is cheaper than an a5 :) you have a bright shining future ahead of you, young student!

[desimunda116]

a brand new Audi A3 2.0T can cost you little under 25k if u negotiate

[AirplaneEatsSky23]

I know but I only make like $10,000 a year, maybe a little less. I still have to go to school. :(

[mynameisnotalfredo]

I'm lookin forward to the new Saabs. They should be better. I'm just glad Chery didn't get them; I would have been sad.

[petrie06]

Who Dressed Ya... Yo Mamma... You Missed your bottom Button Derek... Come On, Dress To Impress... Or Dress For Success

[NewMusicVideoTV]

audi a5 is hot

[1212354]

derek, you must be losing it, the last 5 minutes looked like you are abusing the Zoloft....

[bottomlayer]

just look at how he treats the twitter sign

[Knoxinton]

The Speedometer in that mini is ungodly huge.

[yangbwoi]

lol... they're the same size in the current stock mini, a big ass clock right in the middle. a v12 mini would be hilarious; reminds me of the golf with the bentley engine

[juukyuu7666]

hmm a Saab CCX o.0

[lvcoats74848]

DD loks like he is gettn a little chunky

[comedicd]

you guys go from saying i look thin, then chunky, then thin...haha, i dont get it

[GymProv]

Never wear a tie with your shirt tail out. You look like Dilbert!

[axiomsolo]

amazing!

[noeljf]

haha like this one ,very funny

[cbtorneros]

"... and fu©K you Maimi..." LOL!!!

[cusinndzl]

Good episode.

[RtFusion]

lol, the zoloft squishy things look cute.

[BunyPunter]

I have difficulty with ejaculation......WHen Derek D's mom's involved! Hey-O Bada-Bing!

[joesnicecars]

lol

[Elmo187]

its "HEY! howboutit...."

[MrTlTO]

Dame new york must be a bad place, thank god for bumper gurads.

Do people just let others get beat up like that without try to stop them ?

[FerrarisRock]

wtf is Zoloft is that like Gods idea of Joke, look at those balls of hapiness in the picture...im sure ppl act like that..."Hey babe, how bout we stand by the washroom, im always unpredictable, have you met someone else who can have diarea and constapation at the same time, no im not German, oh and when was the last time u met a guy who would rather sleep then do it!! Yea im the package with a little help from my friend Zoloft,hey wait, why u running away??Haven't u cn how happy the pic looks??>

[mrjost55]

lol medications like zoloft crack me up... what can you not get from it?

[bottomlayer]

[M2992]

The kind of fancy Derek D.

[bottomlayer]

The (business) casual Derek D

[davidmac2007]

a mini with rolls royce interior, hopefully they will also put the suicide doors on, with the umbrellas.

maybe saab will adopt a similar technique now that they are owned by koenigsegg, a fast saab with absolutely no aeroplane thecnology, or not...

wait, do i make any sense, is anybody even still reading?

[bottomlayer]

the clubman already has suicide doors

[tab1990]

Suicide door, there is only one.

[davidmac2007]

so it does, it actually has one suicide door

my favourate thing about that is, mini is originally a british brand now owned by the german's at bmw who drive on the opposite side of the road. the suicide door is so children have easy access, but in the uk cos we're on the other side the children have to get in the car in the middle of the road

and as far as i know, there's still no umbrella ella ella a

[davidmac2007]

ps, i just went on your profile and was disturbed by the comments being left on your profile :S

[bottomlayer]

yeah I like me some spam

[MetalSanke]

Im sure Saab is in good hands.

[doggiepowers]

that last section was the best! hahaha here in hawaii u wouldn't believe how many crazy angry drivers we have haha

[xilverdragon]

Check out big cities in Italy... it's full with fruitloops in Fiat Panda's who think that traffic lights are an optional

[bstrdhound]

lolz. aren't you paradise islanders supposed to be hang-loose, hang-ten, chill types? That's absolutely hilarious and bizarre. just picture it: getting chased around and threatened with a baseball bat by a guy wearing a lei.

[Elmo187]

but the guy wearing the lei weighs over 250lbs and is 6'7". lol

[cobratwinturbo]

if you ask me i would like to see more fr paltform cars from auto makers such as vw to make a more competitive market for (real) sportcars i think that if vw made a (pretical) coupe that was on a fr platform they would have a verry positive response just what i think :)

[JPacheco91]

Now a days car makers are realy lauching or designing some stupid ass car.... who gives a Fuck about about some offroad coupe... like the BMW X6..... That´s next.... koenigsegg is going to make a stationwagon what looks like a coupe and it is hybrid? .... FLD ROCKS!

[OmarA27]

Shittt Zoloft sounds worse then herpes

[timppa600]

hey that last bit was funny. i liked that! :)

[bottomlayer]

Instead of that stupid A5 hatchy thing, why doesn't VW bring over the A3 diesel?

[Elmo187]

um because we already have the A3 TDI. we've been getting the A3 since 2007 i believe.

[vivalarey619]

and that was the symptoms to the new disease called the were fucked disease?

[shresraj989]

Hey, what's Joe the Plumber doing in that Koenigsegg? I thought he was Mister-Blue-Collar, everyman-workingman, honest-day's-work-guy.

[bottomlayer]

plumbers get paid $250000 a year

[bstrdhound]

No shit! (with every pun intended)

[therealdvpringle]

My plumber drives a 2009 Jaguar XJ. Those guys charge $1000 bucks just for a look at their ass cracks.

[paoceldran]

you bastards made me spit my drink out onto my keyboard. LOL

[eckertc2]

why is the video quality getting worse and worse. they dont even post up in HQ anymore...

[therealdvpringle]

It takes YouTube about a half-hour to do the conversion to HQ.

[bstrdhound]

hahahaha ... I just checked out the april 2009 consumer reports survey and found out that my car, a jeep wrangler unlimited, was the worst car tested (17 of 100 points) and was made by the worst car maker brand (Chrysler LLC, ranked dead last ... again).
