Jaguar XJ, GM could be 'Going Green', BMW may be ...

[splortz]

"Order you Jaguar today for delivery in 2010". Translation: Loan the company some money interest-free for a year.

[qernst8]

Seems I'm weird. I like both the new XJ and the Shakedown guy. I think he's funny.

[AlecTheJimSlayer421]

It's about time they redesigned the XJ! the current one hasn't changed much compared to the original... I hope they don't ruin it like BMW did with the E60 5-series

[AeroPolice]

Derek just wanna know u mentioned about your mum what about your dad?...i wonder how your dad looks like?

[gundamforever129]

no offense derek d but i seen your face to much it's not like i hate you or anything but i think Alan seems better now he's seems to be more boring which seems to be funnier anyway i just have an opnion

[kkiselgof]

where did you get that file footage of the new xj??

[vak182]

4:39 wut an old fuck, go drive ur model T

[gamejunky420]

shakedown was the best part

[TheRandomness03]

always is.

[Frossdizzle]

God i hate the "green" fad... its a label and only that! Prove it before you call yourselves it. And another point, didn't green once represent greed and consumerism? Just take GM's ploy as only that. It's another failed attempt to get the american people back on board.

[maxximillion1988]

2 Things, A. the new XJ is a heap of shiny crap, and B. the guy in shakedown is annoying the shit out of me. other than that im good :-)

[viking1au]

JAG looks more like a crappy Ford Falcon. -- Seems they have totally lost their breeding & appeal since getting soaked up by others. They once had breeding & class at an o.k. price. ----No Longer!

[maureencora]

The XF rear tail lights are better than the 2010 XJ.

[xilverdragon]

haha who comes up with these FLD commercials xD 'FLD doesn't suck!' nice one^^

[jmec100]

I think jaguar are having a difficult time at the moment cause they keep doin near misses with there cars! The xf has one of the sexiest rear 3/4's in the business but the front is a bit dull compared to the concept! Which is were the new XJ fills in with a much more sharper front end more like the c-xf concept which looks much prettier! All they need to do is combine the two into a production c-xjf and theyll have the ultimate saloon around!

[sonicmetal9]

happy b day mrs. d.

[XenoRacing]

Leo Parante is a better host than Derek D

[007bondspy]

opoquck oin billey boay

[sdlausen]

I love everything about the new Jag XJ, but I have to admit I totally DETEST the rear of the car. It just doesn't flow with the rest of the cars design language. Then again, this is just my opinion...

[torpedo35]

Jaguar Continental XJ Flying Mondeo Spur

[xilverdragon]

haha totally true :p

[dgriffin4400]

What's the car at 2:48?

[dominator96]

U mean the chevy volt?. the little hatchback w/ blue lights.

[dgriffin4400]

Ah yes, thank you!

[ben10Topgear]

hey when i herd my name at shakedown i wus going to watch it for abit

then again il rather da new cloudy wit a chance of meatballs trailer

[comatose603]

What is the point of FLD plugging its own show, during its own show? Stop wasting my time!

[comedicd]

a lot worse things in the world man...

[chaumander777]

The only thing I do when shakedown comes on is mindlessly stare at Leo's repetitive hand gestures for how long shakedown lasts and forgetting was ever on this otherwise great show. Wait, no, I skip shakedown entirely.

[LeoParente]

Yea, I got other hand gestures.

And a special one for you!

Seriously, everyone that slams me takes their shots @ 'style'. So, American.

Does 'content' matter to anyone, anymore? I try to give you all stuff to.......[OMG].....think about.

I'll keep trying to improve.

You see if you can like WHAT I say.

Deal?

[c0c0asauce]

am i the only one who only understands little peices of shakedown and the rest just gets smeared into a brownish gel like substance?

[carsismeZ06]

The XJ looks like the C-XF concept.

[panda1073531]

the jaguar xj supercharged v8 will cost 115,000 dollars

[Hewhosmokeswomen]

i fucking hate shakedown

[Hated0]

ya, im with you on that one,

Hewhosmokeswomen

[golf1262]

yeah

bad addition!

[DeadlyDre]

He does look like Eugene levely. And the 9th was my b-day as well

[anthony6151]

Why is "Amazing Marriage Proposal" in the related videos?

[golf1262]

cuz video was newly released and usually it relates to random videos

[WeeeeBeep]

Am I missing the "Who's birthday is when" segment?

[neirdo]

Derek, I wonder... how well do you perform in shows aired, when having a sort of... bad or maybe "unfresh" day? How do you cope?

[StreetKingEvolution]

good episode

[Tonio31]

You know what, fuck these idiots that want to get rid of Shakedown and fuck the Shakedown haters in general. It's the best segment FLD got.

[Elmo187]

wow, something i actually agree with you on. that's a first.

[kchiem]

Shakedown sucks.

[atchd]

I have to agree.

[timppa600]

ASS-tec

[wesLey16]

Awesome xD

[2112mike]

oh my god, is GM being run by 7 year olds. 'oh we cant manage money properly, so were going to ask our mommy for help. you can help us? great! were going to make eco vehicles now, so were going to change our logo to an eco logo.'

just because mcdonalds sells a heart attack in a hamburger, doesnt mean that their logo should be a fat person.

[flynnnnnn]

I can not actually understand what the bloke talking about racing is talking about... worst voice ever... anyone else find him annoying?!

[Taelc]

NASCAR SUX

[DelbyC]

twitter is freaking retarded!! OMG, someone needs to destroy it, i would employee derek D, conan o' brien, drew barrymore and kayne west!! for the J.O.B. lol o yea happy B-day mama D! prob 38 yrs young, congrats !

[wltrolmstead]

lol, thats my moms birthday 2!

[swac870]

Dont give up on shakedown! I like it, and the moto gp section...but it did go on a little long today. at least it seemed too...

[lethalvelocity]

Hey Leo, you know what is a great American thing to ignore.......

...your segment on Fast Lane Daily. You wouldn't know proper racing if it bit you in the bum.

Its a shame, the segment could have done so well.

[dodododa]

Enough with the bike racing. No one cares.

[zamaller]

omg 123 ratings and 2345 views!!!!!!! IM FREAKIN BUGGIN DUDESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[desimunda116]

i think they need a new fire extinguisher lol

[dvdggyy]

woooo nascar blows....hes making a left turn wow...ima be kool and do a right turn..o shit im in a wall..why dont they just make them into r/c cars. that would be fun watching.

[PipeDiezel]

Dose Leo piss any one else off. i mean shit. NASCAR is mad good racing. just it a different bread.

[nuggetzor]

Turning left for 156 laps isn't "mad good"

[DarkgreenXatu]

lol. and the pontiac aztek

[rcking1991]

It was My birthday 2 Days Ago!

[tyau1234]

utilizing aluminum chassis takes no special knowledge or skills. The reason why many car makers choose not to use aluminum in their cars structual chassis is because it is impractical. If aluminum is bent, it can never retain its original strength.

[lvutodeath]

happy birthday Derek D's mom

[FunctionalFilm]

anyone else notice the last 2 jags beeeehinds looks like citroens?? are they going to do what bmw did a few years back n make their top line cars asses look like kia's? who knows!

[redemption575]

lameeee

shuda REALLY shot the fire extinguisher

[zanderesqueda]

derek D is the MAN! Chow!

[ianmarkdizon]

i still skip shakedown until now... for me it is an "anti-climactic" to the "funniness" of derek D's show :(( (but thats just me)

[JaBunGa23]

yeah i no i usually dont watch the side stuff other than their reviews.....they should do more

[zeagle18YT]

Shakedown, excellent; keep'em comin

[Mesuminox]

Jim's Dad!

[medelucki1]

happy bday derek's mom =)

[matt260z]

Love the Shakedown, awesome as usual!

[M2992]

The casual Derek D.

[davidameyers]

If you let the video load for a few minutes, you can slide the little dot over to the right until Leo goes away. Then you don't have to suffer through his schtick. Maybe you guys could put Leo at the very end, so I can just switch it off instead of the afore mentioned ritual I perform when you anounce that he'll be in the episode. Just sayin.... Leo = No-Go.

[R6VIIshooter]

it's pronounced jag-u-ar. not jagwar

[metaleggman18]

Haha I knew it would be a 5-series lol. Poor 5-series. But then again Americans don't seem to want station wagons, even if they're monster powered ones...we just want our Yukons and luxury monster "SUV"s. Tsk tsk tsk.

[MrTlTO]

Very cool that you send a happy birthday to your mom.

MOM is # 1  happy birth D's MOM.

[dentonbrowne]

does anyone care fore the shakedown? they should do a seprate episode on sat or sun just for shakedown, i find shakedown annoying and if u like the shakedown dont send me ur comment, i dont care

[fobdaddie]

shat ap.

[juukyuu7666]

GM turning green? Am I the only one who sees the irony?

BTW Leo: i appreciate your intro to shakedown about ignoring stuff.

[joncoppola28]

>>>Okay I'm going to say what Most people are thinking.

Get rid of the "Shakedown" segment pronto!

It's too long, it's boring and so is the host. Replace with a new segment or replace the host with Trish.

Seriously though for a minute here. Do a vote. It's a useless segment.

It basically comes down to this.

SHAKEDOWN MAKES FROWNS (terrible rhyme I know, but true...the segment is the opposite of good)

And if someone ever mentions Joe Pesci, you gotta do an impression. Everybody knows that.

[fobdaddie]

Shat ap.

[RomeBEn20]

i like the new XJ it is much more attractive than the new BMW 7 Series.

[miqojoe]

fuckin xj is sexy

[GMoneyMacFresh]

Well. I have nothing substantial to add comment.

SO Happy B-day Mrs. D

and Megan Fox, I love you.

GOOD NIGHT!

[comedicd]

very nicely done my friend...

-Derek D.

[GMoneyMacFresh]

Thanks Derek, That's how I roll..

Where's Mr. Shubin Jr. Been these days?

[GtotheC88]

the jaguar xj's grille looks like the grille on my grandma's buick

[JohnMarineTube]

I've been skeptical of the newer styling cues since maybe 2006 or 2007. That Jag is nice. This newer BMW seems... alright. Wouldn't get TOO excited, though. Pontiac Aztek (or "Ass-tek" as I call it) was an epic fail stylewise. a GREEN GM logo? No!!! I love blue. I didn't get to see all of the Laguna Seca race. Congrats to Dani Pedrosa. Interesting notes on the I'm an ALMS fan myself, Leo, though I do watch Grand-Am at times. Goodwood is awesome! Happy birthday to your mother, and take care, FLD!

[BlackTransAmdude]

Turn there logo green? somehow i had a feeling they were gonna do that eventually.

[imind]

i like shakedown

[Fuser86]

I love the Shakedown, is good to hear from different types of racing, plus is been getting better since it came out, props to leo for that, if you dont like it just skip forward in the video... now they idea of a global lemans or a global GT that would be absolutely kick a**!!!... though something I dont get is why this guy Elmo187 seems to be trying to pick a fight every other comment? and usually brings the lamest arguments...

and Happy Birthday to double D's mom

[omar1155]

Not a fan of shakedown! too long and boring...its like a stretch prius limo

Happy birthday Ms. D

[yjmoneypit]

can we vote to get rid of the shacke down, u film the show were, oh yeah .USA, NASCAR is USA u may not like it but alot of poepl do F moto gp

I VOT LOSSE SHAKEDOWN

i always like shows other than that

[camaro8020]

if you want to vote of shakedown your entry may want to be spell checked by you before you post it i mean if you want to spell lose and vote wrong be my guest

[camaro8020]

off**

[Elmo187]

or you could possibly use punctuation also.

don't get onto someone about their grammar when you can't properly use it.

[camaro8020]

Punctuation is not a grammar problem, its an i don't care problem.  I mean the only two words he spelled correctly were Nascar and USA.

[mattmopar440]

I liked shakedown today, just g2 keep the topics moving, if you sit on one topic it gets boring

[reubenbridges]

Happy Birth Day Ms. D.

[Elmo187]

if you people can't respect Shakedown, then NONE of you deserve to even have the car enthusiast title put upon you. if you can't respect a little motorsports news once a week, then you should have that title taken away from you.

i also like how there are some morons who can't voice their opinions towards me because they just don't like NASCAR for all the ignorant and wrong reasons. YAY! my comment was blocked because of those morons.

[rcfp2006]

ha ha, another Aztec joke

[klewissmith]

shakedown too long always sucks, show great otherwise.

[TripleZ89]

HAppy brithday Mrs. D! You rule more than DD!!

[ClayBonics]

I fast forward through Leo and the Shakedown

[Elmo187]

then you're not a true enthusiast if you can't listen to news from the motorsports world.

[ClayBonics]

You have no clue what you are taking about

[Elmo187]

really? because every website i've ever been on that's dealt with the automotive world, there's NEVER been one person who wasn't interested in the motorsports world.

so you sir, are revoked of your car enthusiast title.

[ClayBonics]

I work in the automotive industry chief, I was commenting on that part of the show not motorsports in general there genius. Please take a look at the other comments here you will see I am not the only one with the same opinon.

[Elmo187]

Shakedown is ALL about motorsports. if you don't like the show, you don't like motorsports.

and working in the automotive industry doesn't automatically make you an enthusiast. if that were true, then all the car hating big cheeses that run the big manufacturers would be car enthusiasts, when they're not.

[ClayBonics]

Elmo - Again since you don't know me you don't know what you are talking about.

You my friend have no automotive experience at all, All you seen to do is sit on you computer and make senseless comments and make videos about nothing. Yet another example of someone not CONTRIBUTING to society.

Way to go hero!

[meldon100]

talk about fail huh, lol

[ClayBonics]

Exactly!

[Elmo187]

so do you usually suck dick much or is this just specifically for Clay?

[Elmo187]

wow, hypocrite much? you just contradicted EVERYTHING you just said in the first part of the response.

i don't know you, yet you're making the assumption that i have no automotive experience at all.

so 3 years working as a technician with Toyota, a year with GM, and 4 years with Ford doesn't count for me having automotive experience? i'd also like to add that i've built 2 very successful (not famous) race cars and 3 award winning cars. weird how that works out huh?

[Batosai420]

Hey! I've done that too!

[ClayBonics]

I contradicted nothing you just have to be annoying on here just so you can "show" how much you know? Still counts in my book as a loser. Thanks for shopping though!

[c00lchill3r]

I didn't. I liked this episode of Shakedown. Good work Leo ;)

[otmlb1128]

no!!!!! my mom has a 530xi wagon.

[sspope]

4:46

POOR DUCK!!!!

:(

[bkvintagecorp]

great shakedown show.....

[Pyroscopy]

Jaguar you done fucked up...I used to love the XJ's. Whell thanks to your redesign I hope the late models will be cheaper. I always wanted an XJ. MAybe a Vanden Plas...uuuu or the extended wheel base. FUBAR comes to mind when I see it. Comment and reply

[turboman808]

I love the old XJ and the new XJ. Truth is no one was buying the old style anymore. When you can get a beautiful Vanden Plas for less then 10 grand since they are everywhere why pay 90 grand for a new one that looks exactly the same. They are gonna sell the new car like hot cakes. It will make the rest of us love the old XJ even more.

[Pyroscopy]

True but atleast they could of kept the XJ styling that theyve always had. IT looks just like the xf with the exception of the lights being...more closed?

[Pyroscopy]

wth this was a reply to something someone wrote...ops. Im a dumb ass...any way new xj blows...shit i had never resorted to such idiot speak until i saw the new jag.

[Pickupmanila]

shakedown sucks...get rid of it...appreciate ya

[AvgasStew]

Leo - errr MotoGP isn't on the edge. Those guys seem like pussies compared to the guys that do Isle of Man

[hustler539]

Yes, thank you! I don't know how they can make money and have a fan base by only going around a track in circles. there's no excitement, there's no driver skill required(well maybe a little), most of the winning comes down to the car and the strategy. I'm in the US and I can understand this, why can't the rednecks?

[Elmo187]

you obviously can't understand this at all.

you've never once been in a 3400lb, RWD, 800hp fully prepped race car. nor have you EVER been around a 2.5 mile, 31 degree banked oval at over 200mph with 42 other drivers around you wanting the win JUST as bad as you do.

you have absolutely NO right to say that NASCAR requires no driver skill when you haven't once experienced how hard it is to drive one of those cars through 500 miles of hell.

[hustler539]

Speaking of which, I think I found one lol, and judging by all the thumbs down you receive, you're not very liked around here

[Elmo187]

so i'm a redneck because i watch NASCAR? wow, how incredibly ignorant of a person you are. and its REALLY hilarious how you stereotype NASCAR as a redneck sport. dare you to go to an actual race, then tell me how many diversities you see at a race. those numbers will overshadow how many "rednecks" you'll see.

[MagicalMrSkylar]

heres where i stand on that matter. nascar sucks. its all car, NOT driver. the worst thing about nascar is its boring as hell, not like any/most other motorsports, its the same thing 200 fucking times. thats just my opinion. moto GP, that takes skill. nascar...not so much.

[Elmo187]

its not an opinion when you state that its all car and not the driver.

lets copy and paste what i said earlier to Mr. Hustler aka Douche....

"you've never once been in a 3400lb, RWD, 800hp fully prepped race car. nor have you EVER been around a 2.5 mile, 31 degree banked oval at over 200mph with 42 other drivers around you wanting the win JUST as bad as you do."

[diabloreventonf22]

and............ I'm assuming you've been in one of those cars, an in that "SITUATION",right??

nay...i don't think so....elmo187....how come you comment on fld's vids soooo regularly and you somehow feel its your soul duty to do so!!!

take a break and step out into the real world...for once!!

[Elmo187]

did i EVER say that i've been in one of those cars? no. i'm implying that in order for someone to say that it requires absolutely no skill to drive one of those cars, that they would had to of been in one of those cars in that same situation to come up with that conclusion.

[agilefalcon16]

Dodge doesn't make the Magnum anymore? Huh, didn't know that....

[Elmo187]

this is the last year for the Magnum.

[zeroxeno8888]

Nascar = left-turn-only mindless sit-in. It puts you to sleep quicker than pills when you watching at home.

[TBustah]

Man, I didn't even know they sold a BMW wagon here.

I figured they probably existed, as wagons are a lot more popular in Europe, but I don't believe I've ever seen any around.

[ludwigviper4468]

Happy Birthday Mrs. D!!!!

[justdoitfast]

Nascar sucks da best thing that i heard from leo ever. what is the point of it driving in a circle

[Elmo187]

go jump into a seat of a 3400lb, 800hp, RWD fully prepped race car, then drive that car onto a 2.5 mile, 31 degree banked oval and take it upto 200+mph.

oh and i forgot, add 42 other drivers around you like it was a sardine can.

[Pacerace100]

lol, nascar bores me, and i dont like it, but i agree with you about that fact that it does take skill, everyone that complains that it doesnt dont really know what theyre talking about

[justdoitfast]

try 2 go around a 90deg bend o ya they can't. that proves how shit they are they are. did ya ever look at them they look like they get a 2 year old child 2 draw the plans 4 them.

i bet ur from Texas.

[Elmo187]

you're from Ireland. the explains your ignorance. i'm getting this all from your lack of knowledge of NASCAR since you missed the memo that NASCAR has been racing on road courses for quite some time now.

and what was your first clue that i was from Texas? being a DALLAS Cowboys fan? or the numerous shower curtain hooks behind me in my latest video? or are you one of those morons that likes to stereotype people as rednecks because they watch NASCAR?

[justdoitfast]

don't take take the piss of ireland like ya no any 1 from ireland. NASCAR SUCKS LIKE LEO AND TOP GEAR SAID DEAL. try driving it on real roads with twists and bends couldn't because the can only turn left. WRC and F1 is far better dan dat shit.

[bigboysintown]

i think this car is quite good please reply to me if you agree or disagree and why

thnx

[rohi3444]

Happy B-day Mrs.D

[ramonj08]

if they bring the ///M5 Touring to the states it would be better....and every time i see the GT, it gets uglier and uglier......and America needs DIESELS, not the crappy ugly hybrids....the diesels get better mileage, look better, and still perform well

[TBustah]

I know, right?

The newest TDI Jettas get almost 60 mpg, and still manage to crank out a respectable 170 horses. I definitely want to get one someday.

[silonet737]

i have an old golf TD from 94 and i get about 55 mpg still its great I fill my tank like once every 1 1/2 weeks

[sspope]

But they don't feel sporty, you know, they don't rev hight. The upside is that most of the power is available between 1500 and 2500 rpm.

[Elmo187]

you've obviously never driven a TDI model. having recently test driven a new Jetta TDI, its feels VERY sporty.

and why does a car need to rev high in order to feel sporty?

[sspope]

LoL? I've driven dozens of TDIs but not only TDIs', HDIs', CDI's and so on. A couple of years ago they used to make that nasty typical diesel rattling. I'll never forget that.

And how exactly is Jetta TDI sporty? First of all, it's a Jetta, secondly it's a diesel. I will admit that diesels can feel sporty and even smoother than petrol engines, but you have to get a 6cyl at least.

[Colleptic]

Agreed ramonj08

[bottomlayer]

I'd like to see the 120d four-door hatch, the 335d wagon, and the 535d wagon

and of course the M3 and M5 wagons too!!!!!

[evo8bear]

happy birthday Derek D's mom

only problem ive found with Jaguar is that most people tend to need 2 of them...1 to drive while the other is in the shop.
