Doubt they will make it Sub-zero, as Clarkson likes cars with more 'feel' to it?

Possibly cool for now as the looks are not over the top and you dont need to explain why it has a rollcage etc.. but it will be sent down as soon as some footballer buys one smile.gif

he was also amazed at the reason the car looks the way it does, being completely aerodynamically functional.
plus as mentioned earlyer it did break his neck tongue.gif

Great idea for a poll... I actually thought the opposite; Clarkson likes it but it's not Sub-zero, it's "too geeky". I think he's made too much of a fuss about it to put it in the uncool section but I could be wrong.

I think Richard doesn't like it; he keeps calling it a Datsun and that joke is funny once, lame twice and the number of times it's been said now, it's just plain stupid.

Does anyone know where the R34 GT-R is on the wall (if at all)? The big-boned dude drove it back in Season 1.

R34 is not on the wall, they only drove the R34 for a used car review, so no lap time either....sadly

R35 will be cool i think, mainly due to all the hype its been recieving, but no chance of sub-zero (where it really belongs)

That's right, Jason was remarking how the R32's brakes could "explode", apparently. blink.gif

the reason clarkson will say its uncool is because he will say that you have to explain it to people
eg "why does it look so ugly?"
"well that's because it was aerodynamically designed in a windtunnel"
"oh, right"

thus, uncool

obviously i think its cool otherwise i wouldn't be in here

On the R35 at Fuji, it was great to hear Jeremy C saying something like "with all this technology you would expect it to feel numb but it doesn't, it feels mechanical... it feels bloody fantastic"

Good point, the explanation test... I fear on that basis it might fail terribly

He'll blast it as uncool.

"it's a cut price supercar, and does for supercars what a diesel does for ordinary cars - makes you look cheap"

or something along those lines.
