Was the IS-F given a fair shake on Top Gear?

I think they should switch off drivers and cars just to make it fair. The pro driver sat in the M3 the whole time and Jeremy just poked fun at the F...even though you can tell he hated to admit the positives.

Totally agree. But i think its funny how every m3 driver that i beat tends to bring up top gear lol

Regarding where Clarkson races the pro-driver in the M. With the M being a manual, was Jeremy using the 'Sport' mode with the paddle shifters while running against him? Or just in drive? Those who have experienced the F power, would this have changed the result?

I personally like the fifth gear review by Tiff. And the comparison with the girls, but of course tiff cheated in the M3 spinning a couple of donoughts to raise the girls heart beat.

yeah. the host was very hesitant in saying the positives. he would try to negate the F too much. he is really biased too. he'd probably think the rx-8 was better than an F.

Well F is kinda first of its kind, but to be able to scared the M3 who have many models throughout the years this much is already consider a success.. most of the time it also depended on the Driver as well....
