Top Gear - Mitsuoka Orochi & Mitsuoka Galue - James May

[orihalchon]

Is it just me, or anyone finds the Galue is better looking than a Rolls-Royce?

[TehEpicNumber17]

The Galue looks like a Modern Jaguar MKII...

[RocketFoxStudio]

get an orochi and put in a nissan rb25 with twin turbos... heheheehe....

[Alecxace]

I Like it

Would I buy it?

fk no, everyone can plainly see and would whale on you saying it's fake or a fked up kit car lol.

for as much as a new one of these costs you can buy a classic Royce in Ok condition

[MrJordiboy]

3:05 RRRight = Racist

[900GTi]

Did anyone notice that the Galue has the exact same taillights as a late-90s Cadillac Deville?

[jamesmiata12]

hey watch your mouth NeoTranshuman your a bitch who do you think you are chuck yieggo asshole

[ninjamoto21]

name of song @ 2:03-2:10?

[marioandgt5]

mitsuoka always comes up with eccentric designs that arent very stylish urrgh

[NeoTranshuman]

Copies. Fuck asians, they have no imagination.

[NeoTranshuman]

Copies. Fuck asians, they have no imagination.

[SpawnSpectre]

Galue looks amazing... but someone change the front of the Orochi!

[G0Far]

Those are rather distasteful. If I want a cheap supercar, I'd buy me a used Corvette. If I wanted a cheap luxury car, I'd buy me a Mercedes S-Class.

[MrThestig8]

Front of a Rolls, Side of a Lexus, rear of a Cadillac.

[TheSLSAMG]

@MrThestig8 Front of a Rolls, Side of an Infiniti G35 (of which it's based off of) and Rear of Cadillac.

[Samtanvsfelixtan]

Lol

[THEstriker333]

the orochi is so uugly !!

[ThePiece32]

The fake Rolls Royce is an Infiniti M35 with a body kit. I know this because I OWN AN M35 lol

[Skampo1119]

The Orochi is based on a Honda NSX

[ClubbySuperCharged]

@Skampo1119 Wrong, it's actually based on a Toyota Celica but with a V6.

[Skampo1119]

@ClubbySuperCharged Proof:The Orochi was originally built in 2001 as a concept car based on the Honda NSX platform for the 2001 Tokyo Motor Show. Source: Wikipedia

[ClubbySuperCharged]

@Skampo1119 Pffffffffffffff... Got cheated by the car magazine saying it's a Celica.

[Skampo1119]

@ClubbySuperCharged Stop buying that magazine again lol

[camouflagecamaro99]

@ClubbySuperCharged It`s based of an NSX with a Toyota Avalon engine.

[JDMdrifterboy7]

Thats it mitsuoka is one of my favorite car makers now...looks and price are nice:)

[MetallicaFan657]

the Orochi looks like a Viper that was made by mercedes. That's definately going on my list of dream cars

[JasonT121]

part 2!?? :C

[Mainiac1221]

it looks like a rolls royce which has been surgically conjoined to the back of a nissan maxima

[rxstr8]

ya u guys will be bendin over to get a hold of one of our caddies in a couple years.

[pphlip]

mitsuoka are using nissan..

[SH3R0R]

the Interior very similar to infiniti M45

so why he did not mention that !!!

[supra6t9]

american and euro cars are best.

jap crap is for old people and ricers.

[enzolim87]

Galue is made from Nissan Fuga / Infinity M.

[05Rudey]

I'm sorry but this car is ugly, looks like a bottom feeding fish.

[gamarovitch]

Anyone else notice that the dashboard looks exactly the same as an infinity m35

[HEMIH3AD]

lol

6:08 Jeremy: "is that car gonna be sold in the UK"

6:08 cpt.slow: "no."

[rebelheart1968]

americans bitch and moan about gas prices yet they continue to drive thirsty vehicles. american cars for the most part suck, and it's intentional. if americans started building quality cars that lasted longerthan 5 years, how many americans would be out of work because there would be less demand for new(er) cars? and what about all the ancillary industries like auto parts, service, etc.? get a fucking clue. by the way, i'm an american. so fuck off.

[blazeofthepla]

lol at where the video ended

[toolfan92]

this is a Top Gear video, the biggest car show in the world. Not the biggest debating show in the world. Take your arguments and pointless rambles elsewhere!

[Axdsilva]

The Orochi series is based on the discontinued NSX, which is basically what is keeping it alive in the modern market, something I like about it.

It might not be the samething, but wasn't that the point of this video?

[IssaBendeck1]

jap non lsting robber shoes ,europe florsheim shoes not for every day use, and american hevy duty stoff good bang for the buck simple durable caterpllar shoes land rokers yust to give you an example and for your info i m arab from the midle east AND I AM SUPOSED TO HATE AMERICA but we have to speack the truh when we have to they are good at engines and fuck this handling shit you got to be a r eally driver man the USA have to improve in this electronic part and d rest is history.

[IssaBendeck1]

[landof101dreams]

I liek

[gvfootball47]

uhh the Mitsuoka Orochi is not a supercar. sorry to say but its too slow

[shaheertanveerakhan]

The manager does what a fish does when james may corners hard.

[shaheertanveerakhan]

"This clock is exactly roughly like the one on the Rolls Royce Phantom" hahahahahaah

[ShinichiHatsune123]

do you think that the name Orochi similar to the Naruto villain Orochimaru?

[Timx4]

This orochi suits me well, but the problem is don't have the money :(..

[viper0796]

this car is based on the Infiniti M35. It has the same 3.5L V6, same body, same interior, but it has different front and rear ends.

[LostInPhilly89]

Pft, so Subaru gets lumped in with "6 others?" I'm sorry, but did the three of them not state in their "faster than an Evo challenge" that they all liked the Legacy?

[CptKookie]

Is it just me or is the interior entertainment center (nav, radio, climate control etc) taken straight out of an infiniti? Looks just like the interior of an M35. Pause at 3:12, then look at an M35's dash. See what I mean?

[CptKookie]

@CptKookie Commenting on myself, but I did some more looking and it seems the whole car is just an infiniti, M35 or similar with a Rolls Royce-ish body. Silly.

[lookitsmyvideo]

Surprise! James gets lost.

[davidvu396]

same satnav voice as inthe GT-R :d

[liljim4]

the tail lights on the galue is from a 90's cadillac deville

[metalmilitia1890]

The design of both cars are awful

[tanapol32500]

I think it look like UFO not look like car.

[red33m23]

The Orochi is the UGLIEST CAR I HAVE EVER SEEN.

It literally makes me sick

[yeosly]

LOL car : D

[NobleM15fan]

I quite like the Orochi - even if it isn't that fast. It looks brilliant. If they did a twin turbo version (or gave it the V8 from the Lexus ISF) I would definitely buy one.

[muu4mee3]

if you look at the galue its an infiniti m35/45 wiht a body kit. same body shape

[shamownz50gs]

@muu4mee3 same interior too my mom has one

[Chrispisz12]

That is a really ugly car

[jp1nagoya1]

Mitsuoka Motor make only a fake.

Japan's shame.

[TomfromExeter]

He gets on better than with Lamar...

[CHUUMPASS]

the japanese have the "special talent" of making impressive performance from limited resources (rather small engines) and wrapping it all up in something that looks uncomfortable in it's own skin :D

[georgemazdarx8]

you suck at filming

[StanOfGB]

asians cant build cars for shit

[katsioylas]

@StanOfGB dude...they make the best rally cars

[StanOfGB]

@katsioylas Didn't you watch top gear Lancia special? Mitsu won WRC once and subaru 3 times. Ford won 3 times and Lancia 10 times (not to mention audi and others). Japs don't sound like they make the best rally cars, now do they?

[parky1020]

@StanOfGB haha, i hav no idea where you came from

most likely america, juz by looking at ur ignorant comment.

for your information, asian can build much superior car than americans.

ive ownd 2 yank cars b4 (chrysler sebring, ford falcon (they r only available in australia))

n they were total nightmare, the only car that i really liked were toyota landcruiser (had 2 sell them coz they drink 2 much) and hyundai i30.

so yea, don speak such nonsense, unless if you've driven asian cars b4

[StanOfGB]

@parky1020 my dad owned jap and american, the jap car's quality was so terrible that repairs would add up to half the cars value by the time we sold it. Our american cars never let us down and quality held up. Therefore, I am well informed, you are the ignorant one. American > Jap crap

[parky1020]

@StanOfGB well i dont know exactly which cars u owned.

can u tell me the name n brands of those cars?

n also, japanese cars r well known for its superior build quality n everyone in the world knows it

american cars??? pssh, plz, i've owned 2 of those trashcans, which i presume it was built by rednecks feet from detroit.

i would rather go for japanese or korean cars over americans. (except 4 some european ford models, they r absolutely superb)

[maikeru01]

@parky1020 i was with you until you said "korean." now i'll agree that many american cars are not great. i have heard ford is getting a lot better these days but whatever. I drive a european car myself and my family drive japanese. but don't insult american cars by saying korean cars are better. that's just... mean spirited and factually inaccurate.

[parky1020]

@maikeru01 i wasnt trying to be offensive and leaving bad comment on US cars, in fact, i love ford, i just dont lyk rubbish brands lyk chrysler group and GM, which makes overpriced trash, which makes korean car looks soo much better, and yes, i shouldnt have compared korean cars with US, since they are in different league

[maikeru01]

@parky1020 oh, well i can agree with that. no one likes chrysler.

[ethownzbh]

@maikeru01 not anymore with the genesis coupe

[pycckuu911]

@parky1020 well it is obvious that you one of those eurpoean anit-american guy, American cars are fine, based on price quality and power there far more better than those Japanes.

Guys like you like to trash on USA, you just cant accept the fact, that they are becomming good at everything. And i bet you didnt own even one american vehicle, i can trash talk too.

[ManThePants]

@pycckuu911 are we forgetting the Australians? because, yes i know i'm Australian, but looking at all of the top gear reviews just boosts my liking of the holden commodore

[parky1020]

@pycckuu911 sounds lyk somebody never driven cars made in chrysler or gm.

go 2 chrysler dealer, n test drive their cars, and dont 4get 2 check the pricetag, im sure you'll go 'who would pay for this shit?', im not tryin 2 leave bad remark on US, in fact, even i agree that US is 1 of the best nation in the world, but they r also 1 of the worst nation in some parts, my point is, the only company in US dat makes proper car is ford, rest of them juz makes bunch of dreadful overpriced trash

[domtar]

@parky1020 Pending that you are from the USA, apparently they are one of the worst at spelling and grammar as well.

[7j8i9m]

American cars have in general been awful gas-guzzlers that need constant maintenance- even cars like the Charger were pretty awful in terms of handling and braking. Ford and GM have made fuel-efficient, small, fun cars overseas for decades. They just realized Americans are so size-obsessed they can still make big bucks selling tanks, and this trend has only recently started to change thanks to the Green movement. And, honestly, Top Gear's popularity has helped.

[TOKIOHOTEL1000000]

@pycckuu911 i'd like to see you beat a nissan gt-r or a veyron american cars sucks ass they look awful and are only for idiots who like to drive from petrol to petrol station

[TheYosh96]

@pycckuu911 what american cars are better then japanese???

nice joke, no it isnt the only one can be good as japanese cars is the germany ones

dont be stupid bro

[Kraetion]

@StanOfGB

LOL,

NOW YOU ARE "WELL INFORMED"????

[97432561]

@StanOfGB keep yr bloody american cars to yrself.

[proudpom0208]

@parky1020 Just to be a bit of a technical smart ass, the falcon which you claim is "only available in Australia" (its not, also available in New Zealand) then wouldn't that make it effectively an Australian car not a "yank car"?

[parky1020]

@proudpom0208 r u stupid or wat? falcon was engineered n designed by ford, which is clearly an american company, n dats the problem, oz people buy falcon n commodore, coz they think those cars r pure australian, but truth is, they r not, falcon is made by ford, n commodore is made by holden, which is owned by GM. and yes, they r available in new zealand, n so is holden commodore. since oz n kiwi r so close with each other in many way

[batrama310]

3.3 liter V6...isn't that a 2003-05 camry? I've worked with those and I'm sure that was under the hood.

[jetslayer]

This is just a Nissan Fuga under it.

[thepreme123]

Did he just said Thailand? Thailand makes the best fake watches in the world. hahahaha

[rockandrollmetalhead]

I like both. but I would definately take the mitsuoka orochi ifer the other one.

[EliteWalkers01]

The Mitsuoka Orochi's back looks like a Koenigsegg CCXR

[theotherguy245689]

0:48 SILENCE I KILL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[theotherguy245689]

why r they testing the galue? theres an even bigger, much closer to the real thing looking, chinese rip off thats caused so much contreversy i cant believe they didnt bring that up! this doesent remind me of a rolls royce. more like a 7 - series with some style cues from the 1930's

[97432561]

japan cars good. cheap and good. unlike malaysia car and china cars

[palukas80]

....the japanese are the firts in all.......

[deepmelody1991]

I'm disappointed that the Orochi doesn't have that much power. It doesn't help that the engine is Toyota's, unless you want smoothness and decent gas mileage (it's the same engine found on Siennas, Camrys, Highlanders, Lexus RX and ES series).

The Galue looks like a Nissan Altima (ok, Nissan Fuga/ Infiniti M35), late 90s Cadillac Deville taillights and Rolls-Royce grille all mixed together.

[TNSign]

The Orochi looks like someone tried to fit a faulty Mercedes body on a truck chassis.

I still kinda like it though...

[Xentradi97]

I find the double standard rather amusing. Rip off is a rip off. A TRIBUTE COVER BAND? What a generous comment! And yet people can't wait to tear apart when Chinese rips off one of their designs or new Korean car has a bit of Euro-feel due to its head designer being ex-Audi man. They can't forgive that, oh no. But with THIS shameless Japanese ripoff of RollsRoyce they find it rather... amusing. How snobbishly interesting?

[thepope098765]

reminds me a of a benz...

[adriannippy]

I love Mitsuoka ! They make some of the most beautiful cars around with the practicality of more sane manufacturers. Non of the idiosyncracies of Exoticas.

[on91]

Well lets say it looks "interesting" , but for a sportscar it has a too low performance with 230 hp...

[AnonymoussourceL0L]

Is it wrong that I kind of like the orochi's looks? sure it's quirky, but it is kinda of retro.

[Andyilmatto]

The Orochi looks like it just had an accident! Actually, several of them...

[spearkill]

i like how the video ends :D

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

All car manufacturers and their principal nation make some dud cars and god awful ugly ones. The Galue looks like a standard sedan with some mock Rolls Royce front just pasted onto the front and the back looks like... weird..

[brianaquinas]

Music by Hans Zimmer via The Dark Knight

[vjmeh7]

3:20 hehehhe

[Sasori327]

0:47 LOL!

[arospeed169]

mitsuoka orochi the supercar for may

[EndlessT]

The US has some ugly ass cars to! General Motors comes to mind. Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac dont have ugly cars?

[StanOfGB]

@EndlessT No, they don't make ugly cars anymore. Check them out yourself.

[TechThem22]

Now if he truly wanted to test Japan's Roll's Royce, he should've went for the Century!

[2006DURAMAX]

I think the Mitsuoka Orochi would turn more heads on the streets.

For example: "Hey look, a GTR." vs "What the fuck is that!?"

[777AreY0uSure]

If you died right now are you 100% sure you'd go to Heaven?

[agreen2k7]

looks sick

[yui4me]

Mitsuoka Orochi <- Me wants!

[2009skyline]

both of these cars are ugly...but their design is so interesting that it would actually catch my attention......and say wow,,,,what is that?!

[jattpunjabi93]

they just took an Infiniti M35 and changed the front and rear end!

[THEUrinalCake]

I think the Orochi is beautiful. It looks organic like it's made of bone. In black it looks like what you'd get if the Venom symbiote of Marvel comics fame morphed into a car.  Love it. I can't believe anyone could prefer the GT/R to the Orochi, at least aesthetically.

[TheSheepherd]

It looks like it jumps right out of a anime...

[suprakilzz26]

totally built of the infinity m35/m45 chassi if u look at the interior and how the rear of the car goes its totally a m.

[Boocho88]

i wanted to say at around 75% of the video "how come he dident get lost" but he did haha

[kwmoeuwsw]

日本に来てたのか（笑）

[akamus]

looks like a close-up of an Alien

[Douglas6250]

The Galue is actually a Nissan Fuga. A car made to compete with cars like the Honda Legend, Lexus GS or the E Class & 5 series.

** I actually quite like the Orochi. I just wish they've dropped a better engine into it, sth like the C32 3.2 V6 from the NSX.

[DailyHondaRidr]

@Douglas6250 intresting i noticed the guage cluster looked like Nissan Infiniti

[neil1024]

the galue's interior of is the same as the infiniti 35

[livewoutlimit]

it's M35 with a ugly body kit.

[puerroputo]

it has touches of the enzo, the konnisseeegeg (or how ever you write it), saleem...and the second one is a copy of a rolls royce...hahhahha...what a cheap photocopy....

[abhiSHAQATTACK]

the interior of the galue is literally stolen from a 2006 infinti m35/45

[alexcheetah79]

@abhiSHAQATTACK Isn't that really a m35 m45? I mean look at those C pillars, they are exactly the same.

[SpikeRazzor]

They really captured the reptilian look.

[noodleninjaa]

Fuck me, that's bloody ugly!

[rarejd]

Did anyone else notice that the Galue interior is basically the same as a Infiniti M35/M45? Even the rear 3/4 panels have almost identical looks.

[aymthebest]

The "Why So Serious" Dark Knight soundtrack at the beginning is amazing!

[ResourcefulSkater]

UGLY

[arxcns]

with only a 3.3L V6 engine producing 230bhp why would the Orochi can be called a supercar?

[Racin3]

@arxcns not always about horsepower. Lotus makes cars that are around that amount of horsepower, but are wicked quick and look good.

[arxcns]

well for one I dont think the Orochi has the looks, and correct me if I'm wrong but I've never heard or read of a Lotus being dubbed as a supercar despite their performance levels. If that's the case Caterhams should be called supercars too.

[jinnah88]

the orochi now comes with a supercharger

[AraBedelian]

can someone please tell me the name of the song at around 2:22? its driving me crazy

[aymthebest]

The Dust Brothers - Medula Oblongata

:)

[aymthebest]

The Dust Brothers - Medula Oblongata

[Michaelation08]

it just an Infiniti M35! wtf?

[jetslayer]

Errr...the Galue is based on the NIssan Fuga if I am not wrong.

[sid3231]

the orochi looks good but the galue is a shit

[riz44]

The Orochi is one of the ugliest cars ive ever seen but strangely, its kind of likeable. not that i would ever want to buy one of course.

that Galue is just a shameful rip off, you would think rolls royce would have sued them for copying the styling

[Piedutch]

@riz44 Well said.

[lexusES350h]

Lexus, Acura, Infiniti are also made by japanese

[Riesenpuller]

lexus=toyota

acura=honda

infiniti=nissan

[RnB123100]

@lexusES350h

yea but lexus is known as toyota over there

and acura is known as honda

[Futuregohan14]

@rnB123100: Yes and no. Acuras are still hondas over there, and Infinities are Nissans. Lexus, though, does exist over there now. I think they started in 2006 or 2007. The re-badged lexuses (Altezza, Harrier, Celsior, etc) which had been sold as Toyotas over there have been discontinued.

[RnB123100]

kool,i didnt know that.i thought they still badged lexus as a toyotta.

[ivorton23]

that second car is a nissan fuga/infiniti m35!

[mattharvey78]

I used to think the Orochi was ghastly from the front but it really grew on me. From the rear quarter view it's quite breathtaking as well. Now I want one.

[xwhereswalleyx]

That first car is absolutely HIDEOUS.

[Lassie676]

The Orochi is the best looking car I've ever seen. I love it. <3

[sp33drcr]

there is some sort of law in japan that a japanese car, built for japanese market cant have more than 300 horsepower or so. Something to do with fuel consumption and such I believe.

[CheetahFoxx]

BEAUTIFUL!! I wanted to see this one for over a year since I first saw the season preview. If opnly they would make it into a supercar...

yeah it's kinda weird. Its like a supercar in the flesh, but doesnt have the guts.
