Sorry, but Jeremy is the biggest clown trying to make everything look dramatic. The exaggerations and moaning in his biased reviews are just getting old. Watching Top Gear is pretty much like watching WWF. Occasionally entertaining but fake.

Are these two cars really in the same segment?

Does ANYBODY prefer the SLS over the 458?

I don't care how fast the SLS is I wouldn't own it as I think it looks like dog crap! I don't know who penned the box on wheels, but the executive that OK'd the design should be fired IMO.

I don't know what you mean by the 458 "does not have a torque", it beat the sls off the line and was neck and neck at the end....torque doesn't really come into play at high speeds where aero, gearing, hp etc take over.

Awesome race. The SLS is truly under-rated. The design does grow on you, I guess. Still, the 458 Italia has the heart, if the SLS has the "mind."

The WWF is the World Wildlife Fund. Cars are much more exciting.

As for the WWE, it doesn't have cars. If it did, it would be VERY entertaining.

Yeah yeah, I know, I watched the WWF grow up as I was growing up. Just poking fun.

So Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant weren't gay? A guy with bagpipes in a skirt wasn't gay?

lol! You got me... It just got gay-er with marriages happening, the stupid acting every week, with the actual matches all being pay-per-view... What happened to watching matches every week?

(Wow, that was off-topic)

box986 is an unknown quantity at this point
458 all the way, even given the pricing delta.

What about a SLS + new GTR over the 458?

I would rather have the SLS honestly. I enjoy mercs and I love cruiser cars like that. I grew up around GT cars. My dad had a cl55 for a long time and I had a lot of time behind the wheel. More of a sentimental thing for me tho
