We Ranked The Top 10 2000s Supercars

OUTRAGEOUS that the one-77 and the 8C got booted but a fucking fancy plastic Chevrolet made it 1. Enzo 1. Veyron 3. Zonda F 4. One-77 5. CCX 6. Carrera GT 7. Reventon 8. Ford gt 9. SLR 10. 8C Also I know it’s 2010 but I was kind of sad the LFA didn’t feature also I can’t decide if Enzo or veyron should be at 1 or 2

[@musewolfman]

Also, if a front engine American car had to make the list, the Viper is more of a supercar than the Corvette, by a mile. Hideous gobs of downforce, an engine with enough torque to slow the rotation of the planet on a hard launch... it's so much better and cooler.

[@Josh_Wright]

Murcielago not included? Glad the SLR and 8C made it to your list though

[@lbnewell23]

@ well the reventon is basically the same but cooler. Also I’m just not a huge lambo fan, nor Mercedes actually but the SLR is a very special beast

Am I the only one thinking this podcast is better than the main auto alex one...Love the content guys especially including second love of hiphop lyrics! Would be cool to do a segment looking at cars from early 2000's hiphop and how much they were then and what you can get them for now, maybe a challenge...

[@matthewbrown2570]

Guys I'm loving the channel and the whole Auto Alex franchise, you guys have gone above and beyond to fill the hole that the top gear/grand tour trio have left behind, you give us laughs and content that could rival the success of such shows at their peak. But seriously you have all helped me through some dark times and i just want to say from me and on behalf of all the viewers thank you and keep on buying s**t boxes 😜

[@jameswarland9710]

Work in the RAF from 07-13 When I was stationed at RAF Coingsby I asked a few lads what it was like when top gear filmed the Veyron vs the Typhoon episode. Their response was “it was all faked” The challenge was 1 mile up for the typhoon vs 1 mile down the runway for the veyron and both return. Apparently on the first run the typhoon was already back at the start finish line before the veyron had got the then end of the runway. It took 7 attempts to get the finish which was done by the typhoon going 2 miles up on half throttle and the had edited in the first runs start. From that day I couldn’t look at another episode of top gear the same again.

[@ReeceLipsett]

I'm going to pretend I never read this!

[@steveguthrie2550]

I must admit, and this is going to be hugely controversial. Once they started faking things on there I really struggled to watch it. Always cars on fire in the background and no one noticed, clarkson couldn’t fix anything but then the next scene he was wiring the horn to the brake lights. I just couldn’t get on with it toward the end.

[@simondale3980]

To be fair it was an entertainment show. The result was entertaining. It's not like it was consumer advice that was faked, no one is racing there Bugatti against a typhoon in real life. So I can give the show a pass for that.

[@steveguthrie2550]

@@simondale3980 yeah completely agree. It was an entertainment show and pulled in the viewers each and every week.

The clean working area bit is so important. My Clio is missing one of the headlight bolts because it literally vanished into thin air. All the others were where I left them on the driveway, but one just completely left this plane of existence

[@shinjisan2015]

I think the Viper is the TVR of America. It's cool and crazy, but lacks that refinement you'd expect in the kind of car company listed... of course I wouldn't have put the Corvette in the top 10 either, but the Ford GT can stay.

[@LarryMcLarrry]

You guys are killing it because you know exactly who you are and what you love. And also you organize your shit, have a plan for each episode and keep it real. Love your channels and this pod.

I think you should put the name of your podcast in the title, otherwise it's much easier to miss it in the youtube feed. Thanks for making great content!

[@Dkmode1]

A question for the Forum section! If two identical cars were for sale for the same price but one was a high mileage car with a meticulous service history inches thick with all the common failure points replaced and the other car was a low mileage car with little/no history and the seller just has a V5 and a lonely eurocarparts invoice for a battery, which would you go for?

[@georgegillett6059]

High mileage one I think 🤞

[@disuye]

Re starter tools: A handful of old towels (or roll of kitchen paper). Towels over the wings stop you scratching bodywork; they are great for stationing bolts & parts when you disassemble something, catch mess, clear up muck, when your shop floor is grey camouflage putting tools and parts on a light coloured towel makes them easier to find ... they are even mentioned in Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy: "Don't panic and always carry a towel."

[@joshmerrick4716]

On the subject of tools. I had the realisation a few weeks ago that I’ve become my dad. I now have an acceptable amount of tool. And I’m very proud of that. I even had a calliper winding tool! And 3 full sets of sockets (1/2”, 1/4”, 3/8”) and all of them have the 10mm!

[@Phunkmasterd]

A major tip I pass onto all new drivers/mechanics.... Don't do the work on a Sunday.... If something breaks or snaps or you're missing something...it's Sunday, nowhere is open!! Now your not getting it fixed until Monday and if it's your daily drive then you are screwed if you needed the car for Monday

[@LadaBily]

my favourite podcast by far

[@1969Risky]

2000 to 2010 was the pinnacle of Supercars, everything since then has either been an update on them or they're hybrids. Guys, I hope you do a podcast down the track on Performance Cars. I'm sure Holden & Holden Special Vehicles would be in the top 20.

[@diegogoh1340]

Loving the all the content you guys are doing, a question I have is have you guys ever been interested in motorbikes, and if so would you ever do anything with them for the channel? I feel like bikes fit in well with your vids as older ones can run well, be fast, and be hella cheap. I recently got a 2005 SV650S in really good condition for just £1700 and the 0-60 time on it is similar to a gallardo of the same year.

[@nubixcube]

Regarding tools something my trade teacher told me was buy the cheapest good quality tools you can (I bought aldi and homebrand hardware store tools.) and as they brake replace them with more expensive higher quality tools (AKA name brand) then the tools you actually use will be good quality and the tools you barely use will be available when you need them but you wont have spent a fortune of them. If you own a car that needs specialist tools see if you can get them cheaper second hand.

It's rule for me this week. Finally gave the 335i a full service and it is spotless underneath. Used to have a 330i that was literally the crustiest car I've ever seen (and I'm like you but for all things British Leyland). It was a very welcome surprise.

[@MisterAki43]

Will's reaction to the Reventon is the funniest thing I've seen all week. Also I was expecting the Mclaren F1 and Lexus LFA to be on the list too.

[@PointNemo9]

They were not 2000-10 cars

[@MisterAki43]

@PointNemo9 oh damn. Thanks for the info. I thought the F1 was very early 2000s. And the LFA late 2000s. I'm going senile I think.

@@MisterAki43 The LFA came out in late 2010 so not that far off, and the McLaren F1 was way ahead of it's time so it's understandable.

hi guys love the podcast got a question for you. I like the specs and performance of type R civics and have considered buying one multiple times, the only sticking point for me has always being the looks of the cars. The civic to me always kind of looked either dreadfully boring or obnoxious ricer with practically no in-between. witch brings me to my question. how would you rank all the various models of the civic type R in terms of looks? from the the 1st gen (ek9?) to FL5 (the FL5 being what I think to be the best looking). cheers guys p.s i think you can tell what my obsessed car of the week is.

Just a little story for you I experienced during the Podcast: So, as I got to the ranking cars section of the Podcast, my girlfriend walked into the room to see what I was listening to. Obviously, I told her it was the best podcast in the world, and then I was explaining to her that the Lamborghini Reventon was one of the best-looking cars from the early 00's. To put the following into context, she's not hugely into cars other than what I ramble to her about, so I show her a picture of one and she goes "that looks a lot like a concept car I saw, I think it was a Tesla"... As I am sure you would agree, this statement is confusing to say the least as A: Tesla don't really have normal concept cars, they just have cars that they reveal then never manufacture, and B: I cannot think of a SINGLE Tesla that looks remotely like a Reventon. Naturally, I say, "Tesla doesn't really have many concept cars, especially not like the Reventon. Is it quite a new model?" "Yeah, this year, I think." By this point, I have, unfortunately, put two and two together. Hands shaking with rage, I pull up Google images on my phone to search for what my beautiful girlfriend thinks looks like a Reventon... I show her the picture, and she goes, "Yeah! That's it. It looks basically the same, just a bit bigger." It was the Cybertruck. She thought a Lamborghini Reventon looked like a Cybertruck. I can not actually bring the right words together to explain how I feel about this, so I thought I would share it here. Cheers.

Question chaps. I have a 1999 rover mini as a weekend car. I paid quite a lot for it (£11,500), as it’s basically perfect condition, and was even dry stored in a BMW mini showroom for the last several years. What is your view on modifying a car like that? I want to upgrade suspension and brakes, tempted to get a leather interior, new wheels, new exhaust and lots more - but it feels like sacrilege to start doing that on a perfect condition ‘classic’.

I'm personally happy with the Murcielago SV and Carrera GT being above the Enzo, even if it wasn't intentional. I know the Enzo was more culturally impactful but I just never liked it as much.
