Boy, Fifth Gear really likes to show their cars in wild oversteer! It's entertaining, if not really fast. But I'd have to say they nailed the analysis...

The Z4 was cooking its brakes! Stutgart beats Munich with great handling and braking, and that was not a Boxter S! It makes me proud to be in the Porsche camp.

Yeah, that was another thing I noticed...how many mags and car shows put the best Z4 up against the base Boxster. I realize they're probably closer in price, but that's still wrong....

I'm surprised they didn't use color smoke Kumho tires...can you say drifting contest? If people drove like that at our PCA events, they'd quickly be shown the door.
