A great motoring show from the far east. Whats so great about it you ask!

Motoring come FIRST. Unlike the shows we have over here (TG and 5th Gear) Best Motoring actually concentrates on cars. Not only that but the hosts can drive!

No meaningless banter.... Just pure motoring!

Check out some of the episodes (Most are in Japanese some have English subs).

Lots more on the Tube.

I hope a similar show is released over here.
 
I do like best motoring, but I do get a distinct feeling that there races are sometimes "tailored" to see the home grown cars come out on top.

Great show though. Sort of like watching Gran Turismo in real life!
 
If Best Motoring ever tested a Toyota Corolla 1.6 and an Audi R8, the Corolla would win and the R8 would be slated for its handling.

Kind of agree with you there.

They sometimes do international battles. Great stuff!
 
I think Best motoring is slightly different to "Hot version".

Hot version have all the tuned cars, the touge battle and generally the interesting stuff where Best Motoring do "proper" car reviews which are a bit bland in comparison :(.

As a total BMI fanboy I totally agree with this statement by fox.

Just watch how all the honda cars seem to do so well...

Either way they do it right over there.... Even if they do favour their home grown cars lol
 
Do it right or do it different? TG tried the more motor orientated side of things, it didn't work over here :p
 
Seems a bit biased and there's a lot of pride going on there. Enjoyed the first clip though.

The guy's voice when he got the 430 a bit twitchy on the brakes was fantastic though :p

Quoted....for wild exageration.

Did you not even watch that Ferrari / NSX video? They were incredibly effusive about the 430.
