Where is the mustang bit filmed? Looks stunning
North of Ullapool. Lovely part of the world.
Cheers. Stunning place. 650 miles away from me tho. Quicker to get to the alps for me! Shame, would love to drive round there.

Why are the fashion gurus not crying because Matt is wearing a pair of North Face approach shoes when he could be wearing a frankly splendid pair of brown boots from the shoes thread?!

Love the look of that NSX. Good bit of footage. The NSX looks a bit lively round that track. So much want.
The designer looks pretty good too

Do it as part of the North Coast 500. Such stunning scenery effectively on our doorstep.

Oh come on. Patrick Dempsey, Le Mans driver and team owner. Fair enough if he was just some TV tt but he's pretty well known in the motor racing world.

According to Autocar, only journalists who owned a Porsche could drive one of these press cars. Does he own one?

Classy PH trope there buddy...you now qualify for the monthly cheque.

MLB is already better doing an on track review! Matt IIRC has a Porsche.

Fantastic cars this week, I would have any of them though could only afford the Mustangs sadly.

He has a 911 GT2 RS and a 911 Turbo apparently.

I'm sure I read that there were 911R's for sale for £500k. Good luck getting one for £130k!

Anyone else disappointed by the NSX lap time? Slower than McLaren MP4-12C and Lambo Huracan, guess it is a bit heavy!

Lots of new cars being tested tonight- I like- its getting back to what the older TGs were about before Clarkson, May and Hammond started titting about every week.

Great review by Matt LB on the 911R. He has been a great presenter.

So Top gear, after a shaky start its finished strongly, in my book.

Huge fan of Patrick Dempsey, so was happy to watch SIARPC.

Harris, usual, brilliant.

Le Blanc, loved the R feature.

Reid, meh. Seems a Ford fan boy.

Evans, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
