Ferrari Monza vs McLaren Elva vs Aston Martin Speedster - £3.6m, 2,300bhp mega test | Top Gear

[@wszolcio]

The way this episode was shot, presented and edited is mind blowing. And the most impressive thing is at the end when you see credits and realize couple of people made this masterpiece. You really don’t need a proper television crew to create awesomeness. Well done Top Gear!
