  1. Very well could be true. There is a guy around where I live in GA that owns an R32 GTS-t. It’s not impossible to import one, nor are they technically illegal. You just have to deal with all the hassles of getting it through customs and what not. In GA you only have to get cars emission tested in the Metro ATL counties, so it woul be easier to get away with away from those 13 counties.

  2. Moog i love your silvia s15 cause when im bored i watch this again and i feel better. <3

  3. guys you can import to almost any country, i see a lot of GT-R 32-34 for sale in canada, just have to adhere to your countries emissions standards when you get the car in your country, I plan on importing either a Nissan Skyline GT-R 34 Nür (good luck to me for finding one) or Mazda RX-7 FD after my savings reach high enough in the far off year of 20-whatever.

  4. You have to wait for the car to be 15 years old for Canada, and 25 years old in the USA. So in 2 years you can import these to Canada no problem.

  5. Yes, it’s supposed to be… In Texas I’ve only seen 93 and a lot of places here have added stuff in it so I have to be selective.

  6. IT IS a factor for this dumb ass, its more efficient the lighter it is

  7. 93 is from my part, but in other countries the ratings are different and a bit higher in performance

  8. Your are very correct, but for high performance brands like ferrari I think lightness is more for cornering ability and to make the engine a much better match for the vehicle

  9. NEW Bentley Continental GT car, that is my friendly car. That’s very good.

  10. Laws of physics says the more weight/mass an object has, the more the energy is required to move it. So more mass equals worse acceleration, top speed, braking, fuel economy, and etc. That is why most automakers, especially performance brands like Ferrari, is trying to make their vehicles as light as possible. So weight is a factor in everything.

  11. I think it’s just a point to put out there to make it more impressive. I mean the thing can do 0-60 in less than 5 seconds which is impressive, but even more impressive factoring in the weight.

  12. The reviewer keeps mentioning the weight, which is a NON-FACTOR in highway driving. Does he really not understand that? Weight is a secondary factor even in mixed driving.

  13. its all in how you drive your car my saab 9-3 gets 37 mpg’s when im babying in on the interstate, but when im mashing the gas and having a bit of fun it can sink below the 20mpg mark

  14. european octane ratings and united states octane ratings are different 93 octane is the highest you can go on pump gas (with a few exceptions) in the united states but it is about the same as 95 and 98 octane in europe.

  15. Nice car. But i cant help notice those black plastic buttons. Do they really look as cheap in real life as in the video?

  16. My uncle in california has one of these when i visit him i got chance to drive it, it really is a great car to drive very smooth.

  17. Um, you have issues. And you’re really incorrect. The Malibu is rated as a horrible car.

  18. I am going to own this vehicle. I dont care what anyone thinks or says.
    and you know what bentley is the best of both worlds cruising and excellent straight line acceleration. comfort amazing!

  19. 26 mpg on a 2200 kg vehicle -_-?
    my 1300 kg plastic 2012 chrysler 200 gets like 22 mpg with the fucking horrible 4 speed and inline 4 ffs..

  20. i really hope these “tree- hugger bull shit” oriented reviews are not here to stay. I mean where’s the smoking burn outs, the hard driving, the real things that test what the car is made of and take you along for the ride?? This “how far can you go” crap that everyone is doing is fine for a prius but not a twin turbo bentley that just wants to scream down an open highway.

  21. Some beautiful shots, but not a great review. More enthusiasm and possibly better driving skills. It looked like he was driving at 10 and 2 while screaming around curves at high speed. Not great form…
