Harris is back with another compilation and this time he's driving some of the best sports cars from the past few years.
OK, so we've stretched the definition of sports car a little, from the 718 Boxster S - with it's questionable cylinder count - to an Aston Martin with more cylinders than a Pringles factory, there's a wide-range of road and track-based goodies going sideways, all with driver involvement front of mind.

This video is the sole reason that BBC needs to justify giving Top Gear to Chris Harris and let him do his thing. Sure the trio formula was great when Clarkson, Hammond, and May were doing Top Gear but that's something that they did and worked at the time. Move on BBC, Chris Harris is brilliant and every motorhead would gladly sit through an hour of such a show.

Since Chris Harris has joined Top Gear there are less Supercars in show because of his selfish attittude and unfair reviewing. Criticizing some of the best supercars in the world in his selfish way and giving the positive and false review in the same time of one of the most unreliable supercar is not the way to be a presenter of this show.

AMG vs GT3 RS.. Merc has a better interior, it's faster in a straight line, has one of the best engines in the world(like the Porsche), front-mid engine and rear wheel drive(rwd hooligan, but it can be very controlable on the track) and finally it is faster on the track. Conclusion? He just loves the way Porsche drives and feels. It's subjective, but he is CHRIS HARRIS people! He has every right to say whatever he really thinks, 'cause he is the daddy.. Not Porsche, not the Merc, not a BMW M3-he is. Keep the good stuff up Chriss, cheers!
