Yeah fifth gear annoys me actually, they do have some awesome cars on there but half the time they are trying to get one over on top gear and saying that they are best, why not shut up trying to say that sort of thing, pay homage to what is the best car prog on tv and maybe try and concentrate on their own failings




Yep.
I think it's quite an indictment that they've effectively copied the TG format. They now sit in a sort of studio and chat about the cars and they've got a track that all the cars lap times get ranked on. Sound familiar?

The bit with Schumacher though was toe curlingly embarrassing. Asking him if he prefers top gear or 5th gear and he says oh 5th gear in a very red faced I'll say which ever you want me to but I've never seen either or even heard of you kind of way!

Very familier, where it fails is by been too serious, it gets some great cars and really exclusive cars but they review them in such a boring way, the presenters don't work together and none of the presenters are funny. the three presenters on top gear are great and the program is really original, i wonder how long it will be til 5th gear get a cool wall

5th gear is not a touch on top gear. Last week they had the top powered koenigsegg C8 ( they said it was the fastest car in the world, which is an incorrect claim seeing as the Bugatti veyron recently hit an official 252 mph on audi's test track.) and they couldnt review it properly because it broke down as soon as it was on the track, and they still used the peice of film!!!. The quality of the filming on top gear is also miles ahead of 5th gear.I only watch it while im waiting for the new series of top gear!! back early december I believe.

I did like the look of that signed schumacher edition Fiat stylo they had in the competition though.

the thing is that fifth gear shares his footage by itself so i am not really sure if its illegal



edit: the st in fifth gear misses the 2 white stripes on the front bumper above the license plate

no no you are advertising bittorrent, a p2p filesharing network, which 'can' be used to share copyrighted files, hence why we need to disassociate ourselves from it, not the actual fifth gear footage
