Fifth Gear - Nissan 350 Z Roadster v BMW Z4 Roadster Dogfight

[MrPowerofWhite]

I don't really understand why people complain about the various car shows...honestly

Top Gear UK is the main show everyone watches, then when it goes in off season people watch Fifth Gear > Top Gear USA > Subtitled Cheesy Top Gear Korea. Top Gear UK is the entertaining show, Fifth Gear is the factual show, and Top Gear USA is the retarded step-son that people feel the need to love.

Z ROADSTER POWER

[Flabernat]

Eh.... I'd rather the 350Z :)

[1TB0T]

Also you people buy a Nissan SPORTS car (one of the best bang for buck on the planet) and complain that it breaks? I urge you people to NEVER fork out for a SUPERCAR like a Ferrari or Lambo. Anyone that knows anything about cars and motorsport knows that reliability vs performance is a fine balance. Want something that never breaks? Get a Corolla and enjoy your nice safe reliable daily commute.

In the mean time I'll continue to treat my 350Z Roadster like a Ferrari.

[1TB0T]

For all the "I got burned by Nissan" comments. There's a trick to owning a Nissan

Buy FROM Nissan, get it SERVICED by someone else. Fact is that most Nissan dealerships/service centers just know how to service a Micra. They are NOT the people to go to to get the best out of your Z.

I've had a few warranty issues and Nissan have fixed them without question. Excellent service there. But as soon as the car is out of warranty, I'll go to a after market workshop and have her really opened up.

[NigoNI60]

aftereffects > the 350Z hasn't "won every challenge". It's too heavy and on the limit, it shows. I wouldn't prefer the Z4 3.0si Coupé to the 350Z, though

[neomuttley]

Nissan delivers many of their cars literally falling apart right off the dealerships' lots. Who cares what the few hand-picked examples sent to journalists are like? It's the turd baskets Nissan knowingly sticks paying customers with that matters...FU2, Datsun.

[Mikew995]

You are clearly mentally challenged, I own a 350z and to be quite frank I dont know of another car I would rather drive. Its ridiculously refined and meticulously engineered, and it shows in almost every element of it.

[neomuttley]

@Mikew995,

I'm mentally challenged because I read the myriad complaints from other consumers who put their trust in Nissan? I think not. Just because you got a good one. Or, at least so far as you know. Many other people got burned by Nissan. Nissan has shown that they will readily rob people w/o a care in the world. They also make the GTR. That's supposed to be one of the best sports cars going. Due to how they treat other model buyers. i wouldn't buy one if I could. Truth Hurts...

[NOCARRIER416]

@Mikew995 I'm also an owner of a 350z and I disagree on all fronts. It was a good effort on Nissan's part, but it loves to fall apart...too many problems, no support from Nissan, and not very usable either. I can't wait until it dies so I can part it out and buy from a Manufacturer that stands behind their product. Horribly engineered product, and unrefined... suspension + engine especially. Looks nice though!

[skullcandy071]

hey If I had the money, I would buy both the BMW Z4 Roadster and the Nissan 350z coupe. I like the 350z better in a coupe

[MrIQQU]

350z is better..

[kicksoffs]

I'd take thak the Z4 instead, you know why its because it was originally made and designed as a roadster. Not a coupe and redesigned as a roadster.

[Shad0whearth]

lol why then on corner exit, nissan was allways fester?!

nissan is just best bang for the buck!

[greenleaf81]

"it proves power isn't everything"  yeah right.

[jenstagner]

couple of fags

[aftereffects]

after clearly winning every challenge they still go for the Z4. just shows how fickle so-called "journalists" are. they're badge whores.

[SeraphimEpsilon]

You realize both Tiff and Jason are racing drivers more than journalists?

[aftereffects]

The 350Z won every challenge and yet they choose a Z4? Top Gear used to do this in the past and had to apologise. Remember the Lexus incident?

[jwjorge]

did anyone notice the z in the sky in 1:08 ?? clear sign that the z is the better car lol

[soobeng]

All your video clips are so good. i thnak you so much for posting them and sharing them with us. !! Fifth gear is much more fun to wtach than TOp Gear. All the way Fifth Gear.

[NissanDriver15]

Top Gear is better.

[MeLoVemY350z]

is the sound system of the 370z roadster better than the 350z? id like to know if the sound is still fuller even if the ròof is down

[bulegold56]

This obviously isn't a Z4 ///M. Their test car was the normal Z4 convertible.

[dtxs1206]

it wasn't an ///M just a regular. the M would have blown the 350z away :)

[fcabido]

so much more expensive. you can't deny the z is good value! can't wait for the z4 w/3.5tt

[Nismoleb89]

of course the chassis isn't going to be balanced perfectly, its a roadster for gods sake!

[Rally3773]

mx5? is a convertable and has a 50.50 weight distribution, e.g. perfectly balanced!

[devkamal]

Enough with the arguments of which is better, if u like it watch it, if u dont,then watch something else..

[metallicafn]

one guy doesnt have the refelxes to shit the right way and yes its the guy in the z4 if their really gonna get the most powerful 350z its only fair they get the most powerful z4 which is the m edition which of course wouldn't be fair to the 350z cuz it be spanked like a little bitch u just dont fuck with bmw why the fuck they even compare i dont know german engineering wins every time idiots resistance is futile

[Riujinzero]

the most powerful 350z? all 350z's have the same motor and horsepower rating except for the nismo and as far as I can tell that was a grand touring...not a nismo.

[HitoriStar]

nismo edition is the most powerful and that most certainly wasn't a nismo.. so.. Think before you type such unbearable garbage Such pride man. lol.

[Trystelune]

they meant the most powerfull of all generations of 350 z , the one with 313 hp . because they were two previous generations with two differents power . 300 hp and 286 i think

[geomaticstech]

hmm... dans360 those geeks, two of them are ex touring car champs...

[Trobleshooter]

Fifth Gear is good....I only watched Fifth Gear in Hong Kong lol

Cheers!

[Glacielfire]

Top Gear is very entertaining, no doubts there, but as to the validity of their stunts or especialy their car reviews, I seriously have my doubts. Tiff and Jason are professional race drivers(formula 1 and touring cars), and If I had to pick an opinion to trust, It would definately be theirs! Having said that, Top Gear is great fun!

[queop]

Fifth Gear is Fucking Shit and thats from a 13year old Top Gear is miles better and they can actually drive

[dans360]

fifth gear is shit its a few geeks trying to fake they know what a car is

[spinesnapper]

ONE DAY IM GOING TO WATCH A TOPGEAR/5TH GEAR VID WITHOUT READING THE '5th GEAR or TOP GEAR IS BETTER' ARGUMENTS COMMENTS.

[jamiebellal]

Top Gear aint fake...

People might say it because Jeremy wins all the time...but its true.

Sorry fifth Gear, buy a studio and leave ace cafe alone

That is for bikers and ricer cars

[Adstarr70]

Top gear = MUCH Better.

[JAMIEHMC]

fith gear boring top gear amazingggg

[MattiaEmanueleb]

defenatly better top gear, more fun, more smiles, more passion..these guys just try to..LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSERS..:)

[doctordrew66]

testing testing!

[bambinorobino]

they proved it, nissan clearly won that challenge and they said "power isnt everything"... power is everything! thats why nissan is better than z4 on speed, drift and drag.

no offence or anything.

id go for nissan 350z r.

[Arizona350Zee]

I completely agree. Power is everything. I don't understand, the 350Z won every challenge, but the Z4 M is the better car??? They forgot to mention the Z4 M is over 52K and the Nissan in 36K.

[dtxs1206]

power is not everything. mustang's have alot of power but can't handle and can be beat by lesser hp cars on a track. and the bmw definitely has a better feel then the nissan. when talking about driving for fun, even if the car wins in numbers, it comes down to how the numbers are delivered. i mean the merc sl55 has 800 hp but it would be stupid to get one over an m3 because it doesn't deliver it well

[Chiefy4200]

Stop comparing top gear to fifth gear.

Top gear is entertainment and alot of it is fake.

Fifth Gear is purely about cars, and for people who actually know about cars its much better.

Top gear is still great though.

[Adstarr70]

Top Gear Is Not AT ALL fake. Noob.

[Chiefy4200]

You are a complete retard. Just look at the episode where Jeremy crashes the Rolls Royce into the public pool. Do you really think he wouldnt get arrested for doing such a thing. Or the episode where the Stig drives of the british navy ship and dies. Yea coz that was real wasnt it.

And calling me a noob isnt an insult at all you dickhead. Because basically to me Noob means that im not a 20 year old virgin sitting at home playing endless world of warcraft. Get a life you sad act.

[33FS33]

I couldnt have put your whole speach better myself.

Top Gear is really good.. but you dont watch it for the cars.. and yeah its very fake.. just like them races around europe.. so fake but makes good tv.

[dabigfosse]

top gear is way better. Fifth gear - the presenters are boring the challenges are dull but fifth gear probably does more cars that you might actually buy.

[GHdagrk]

I think this is way better than top gear, i guess you have really be a car guy.

[FizzWiget2]

This is boring. Top Gear is more intersting. Don't care how well they drive. Top Gear is funny too.

[muboy4life]

350z best car ever

[Chiefy4200]

Best car ever???? What about the new GTR?

[soundseeker63]

This is a more informative car show than top gear, but less entertaining. The two programs have different selling points, and anyway top gear used to be presented by Tiff and Vikki when it was a proper car show.

So to every one who comes along and leaves stupid and negative comments about the show, why the hell are u watching it then? huh?

[clutchmaster22]

clarkson can be an idiot sometimes but top gear is very informative. Tiff is a brilliant driver and presenter, so is Plato.

Everybody else is not upto the mark

[stigGT9]

because i've seen all the top gear ids and yop gear TEN times better, moron

[soundseeker63]

Oh I see...Your watching 5th gear because "Top Gear is TEN times better", just so you can leave pathetic comments...?? Maybe when you know drive you'll understand what's important and relevant in a car in the real world, and in a car show!!!

[righthandgenius]

HEY ITS TOP GEA...oh no wait....

[JjOoNnNnYyBb]

I hate these persenters 5th gear is poo I only watch it for the cars

[celt67]

What else are you going to watch it for, retard. It's a car show.

[1TB0T]

@celt67 Totally agree. I used to be a TG fanboi and refused to watch 5th gear. But now I enjoy BOTH. TG for the fun. 5G for the FACTS. 5G for the cars I own. TG for the cars I dream of owning.

[flapsaredown]

Japanese cars are fab! Never rust or break down.

[hipstarchild]

Japanese cars whip German cars.

[jester223]

Don't get me wrong, Tiff is a fantastic presenter. But, I am sorry to say, that Fifth Gear just can't successfully compete with Top Gear.

[KCclegg01]

Yes. I agree the Top Gear geezers have more personality they complement each other's personalities, and that adds to the entertainment of a car show, when one of the fifth gear guys attempt to crack a joke it just makes you cringe, however the best thing about Fifth Gear is they make more series per year than Top Gear.

[blastergraham]

Both offer different things. Top Gear presenters can't drive at speed yet the Fifth Gear boys and girl know exactly how to drive - and should do. 2 great shows though.

[brAd200008]

5th gear= balls..... top gear= the future

[XHolaNuevoX]

You guys are so lame lmao.

Top gear absolutely rips shit into you guys

[Jibber616]

hedgehog

[leeboi222]

suck my willy

[riopieboy]

You's are queers.

Your just trying to be like Top Gear but you can't because Tope Gear rules and this sucks balls

[herecomesthemonster]

tiff is the stig
