We Bought 3 Insane Gas-Guzzling Supercars For The Price Of A Tesla Model 3 | Car Trek S8E1

We DARE YOU to find better gas guzzling cars than we did on AutoTempest!►bit.ly/CarTrek801
Thanks to AutoTempest.com for sponsoring this series!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
On the first episode of Car Trek Series 8, AutoTempest challenges the guys to find three of the burliest, most obnoxious gas guzzlers they can buy, for less than the price of America's favorite electric vehicle, the Tesla Model 3. Freddy brings out his inner boomer with a Chevy Corvette Z06, Tyler's childhood fantasies come to life with a Dodge Viper SRT-10, and Ed's cheap Bugatti Veyron dreams are realized with a Bentley Continental Supersports. They are then tasked with racing around Atlanta Motor Speedway, which is a bit scarier than it sounds.

@AutoTempest Ian - interesting. I wonder if they had the cabin overheat protection turned off. Usually that prevents things from getting too smoking in there. Although I guess if you leave a phone in direct sun it'll get pretty hot even if the air isn't too bad.

At first I was hating the car intro being so vintage Top Gear, but embodying the Trio is what they would love to see.

[@marktwain8192]

Wow. I didn't think this was coming until Christmas time. What an incredibly welcome surprise.

[@nutsandy7183]

That was a step in the right direction lads, the last few series have been a bit meh of trying to go OTT but this is where its at! We all wish we could afford fuel again!

[@JustTIC]

Battery was at 65% when they started. NOT ENTIRE CHARGE. The beeping was from taking off the seatbelt at over 100 mph.

[@assortednuts8436]

Yeah noticed that as well

[@user59371]

LOL COPE HARDER ELON FAN BOY 🤡

[@getlosttoday4045]

So then that's the same as 3/4 tank of gas right?

[@SimuLord]

18 is (roughly) 65% of 27, so Freddie still wins with the Corvette on one gallon of gas.

[@JustTIC]

@@SimuLord how does driving below 70 and drafting compare to driving the tesla at over 100?! That doesn't make sense

This show is so much better than top gear America they should honestly just switch the two

[@hoeewiee]

I really like the choice of cars! The production quality also superpassed my expectations. So nice to see what Car Trek has become.

I love the dynamic between you guys. It’s absolutely hilarious. You 3 should have been the top gear trio honestly.

[@lazyrusclubberlang5996]

Time for a car Trek special 👍

[@kevinmcguire7686]

I'll say Jeremy, Richard and James are ABSOLUTELY the top gear trio. But these guys have picked up where they left off, and it's fantastic.

[@MrSirSOCCERMONKEY]

im from atlanta and seeing the area and recognizing building and roads makes me sad you were just here and i missed you guys

[@stephentroyer3831]

What a fair comparison! Flat out driving compared to going as gently as possible and drafting one another. Minimum efficiency of one compared to the maximum efficiency of the other. So fair!

[@harshitkawatra]

Just started watching, and I have to say the production quality is just magestic, Even more fun watching car trek this season.

[@cynic24x7]

Ed's writing is so so so good! His quips are something I aspire to have.

[@omgcool7206]

Production value and chemistry have come a very long way, especially this season. Well done! Please don't talk about the Viper, though. I really want one someday and every time you remind people that it exists, I get further and further from being able to buy one..

[@kavkaz879]

Can't believe 7 seasons so far. This series is the best there is so far

[@randyphillips8803]

The only complaints I have about this series is there are not more episodes and they are too far in between. Well done as always guys!

[@falstar2020]

Great episode guys. Now you do have me wondering where the fuel pickups are in your tanks, especially when in the high bank, and if they would have gone farther on flat ground.

[@polygaryd]

Was thinking the same thing the whole time during the "test". I put test in quotes because it wasn't a controlled test or done with any sort of accurate measurments.

[@miked.6958]

further , farther is not a word.

[@hrg_tv]

@@miked.6958 Further means figurative distance, whereas farther refers to actual distance. I got an F in English class.

As a Star Trek fan, that intro made me seriously laugh out loud. Well done.

I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that Ed found a Bentley with 177,000 MILES on the odometer!

Just made my day a whole lot better wasnt expecting a car trek episode

[@DoodleOnAMotorcycle]

THAT INTRO CAPTURED MY HEART 🖖🏽

[@benbergeron5875]

I’ve watched car trek since the beginning and have wanted to buy a car through Auto tempest just to support the making of this show. But Auto tempest wasn’t in New Zealand… we have just moved to the US and one of the first things I did when I got here was jump on auto tempest and bought my dream vehicle… a 2018 Toyota Tundra 5.7 v8. Perfect timing considering the theme for this series is gas guzzlers. Thanks for the show Ed, Hoovie and Freddie. thanks Auto tempest for helping me find my dream vehicle.

[@autotempest]

That's fantastic. I'm glad you were finally able to use AutoTempest in the USA to find your Tundra! Feel free to DM us on Instagram if you want to share your story. I would be happy to share it!

[@AutoAuctionRebuilds]

So happy to see a quality trio keeping this going. I hope to see certain youtubers come in as new or special guests to the show! Would be so cool to see DDE or something invest some time into a series with the team here :)

this is totally like tv quality production and show

[@Moe786]

My new favourite trio... This is Good Stuff Gents. Getting better with each series

[@patricklee7888]

This is great! My only complaint is you were trying to compare gas guzzlers to the tesla when you ran the tesla on full power and the gas guzzlers at 55mph

[@isaachendricks5247]

yesss. i thought i was the only one. don't get me wrong, i hate teslas. but that did seem unfair. i love the unplugged tesla model S Plaid tho. 🤩

[@rickwilson3696]

It is a bunch of homers with no real respect for a better design or idea, clinging to their ice vehicles with everything they can muster. If you could build a car that can go 5 times as far with the same energy used and called it gasosheen, you all would jump on that bandwagon!! Call it electric and it is the worst thing that ever happened. You all don't make any real sense.

[@mpmd6.9]

@@rickwilson3696 it's a bunch of car guys who enjoy driving a real car that can reliably and quickly take them long distances. You do not care about what makes cars cars, have wildly arrogant and fact-suspending ideas about saving the world, and are perfectly fine buying a shockingly expensive car that cannot take you anywhere far reliably without you spending hours and hours waiting to refuel. If you aren't a car guy, why are you watching a video about cars made by car guys?

[@jooshallen895]

Great episode! I felt real fear for Tyler in a Viper with old tires on a wet track. I’ve got a red rebuilt ‘03 myself and put new tires on almost immediately.
