Who would have ever thought of a time that Jeremy Clarkson would enjoy what he calls the “floppy paddle” gearbox. In the current season of Top Gear Jeremy gets behind the wheel of the new Ferrari 458 Italia and starts his typical complaints about the way the controls are laid out on the steering wheel. But after he unleashes the power that the 458 has to offer, his outlook begins to change. He totally goes ape sh*t over what he discovers in the new 458 Italia after putting it into the corners. They even match the 458 Italia against James May’s Ferrari F430 in a drag race. Check it out for yourself in the Top Gear video below! Enjoy!

If you watched the video in our latest Top Gear related post (the one where they put the Camaro SS up against the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG -so unfair), then you know that Jeremy Clarkson poked fun at the iPhone 4’s antenna issue in his comical introduction to the Stig. “If you hold him in the wrong way, he does doesn’t work properly”. Maybe if Apple recalls the iPhone 4 and fixes the antenna issue then the Stig would get a better lap time in the Camaro SS! Ah, that’s probably wishful thinking on both fronts! Check it out in the video below!

James May sets out to find out which monster limo “wins” in a battle, the Mercedes S63 AMG or the BMW 760i. The BMW 760i sports a twin turbo V12 while the Benz S63 AMG has the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 Benz’s AMG division makes. With amenities such as a 4 zone climate control, messaging seats and even a set of cameras to see around the corner, these beastly mammoths are not as tamed as you may think they are.
