  • Please tell me you werent wearing socks and sandals. If you were, immediately turn in your man card.

  • no, I was wearing my Piloti driving shoes

  • Can you use Piloti shoes as casual shoes too? I really like their shoes, but I dont want to buy them just for driving.

  • I have been wearing them daily for about 3 months. They are supremely comfortable as sneakers, and great for driving too. I have other "gym" shoes, but I will never buy anything else for everyday sneakers. I have the "Prototipo"

  • the Audi suits you well Matt.

  • it is rather gangster isn't it?

  • I don't care what anyone says about those headlights... they look mean as hell, especially when you're going through that one lane bridge and the car is blacked out.

    Gangster indeed, it goes well with the shaved head and polo combo

  • this episode is top gear quality. Good job. Loved the beginning

  • trying to be funny fail

  • @wavefool

    What car manufacturer builds a car now a days without all the bells and whistles? If you're dropping 50k+ on a machine, a 300 page writeup on how all the sub-systems work, seems hardly enough. I'd prefer a 3000 page complete tear down manual. It's not a push rod motor w. distributer ignition and a carburetor.

    It's 'high tech'.

  • Nice video man, always wondered how technology produced for race cars filters down into road cars.

    Was wondering, what's the song used in the intro to this vid?

  • the A5 headlights are ugly in the US

  • he kinda screwed up when Matt asked is diesel the future of endurance. he talked about electric lol

  • woah i thought the cell phone was a floating door

  • Hey Matt don't be confused. The Germans have to be told everything, they are such brilliant engineers that their minds are full, and therefore have no room for things like. How to drive the freekin thing. Your ok, them, not so much. It seems that they can't build a car without all those driver aids. Is there something in the beer that changes what was one a basic joy of life, to a reading exercise. I'm going for a ride in my Gt-350, hope I can remember how to start the damn thing.....

  • o nahanahahah stupid loser
