Finally someone gets it. The answer is not heavier and more HP. This is the direction car companies need to go. Concentrate on efficiency and lightweight.
Like Lotus used to do. Colin Chapman and Gordon Murray are right about that.
Well, Porsche has a similar philosophy. At least with the RS line
@@The_action_is_the_juice the “answer” has been there all along.
@@TheDCJason GT RS Porsche’s are close to 1500kg’s
@@fan-tastic2803 it also doesn't cost $3 million
Looks like Han and Chewie in the Milenium Falcon 😅
Dario is a bit more clever than Han, and Magnus much more chatty than Chewy, though mostly in a collaborative way.
He looks like he smells real bad. I wouldnt get in a car with him.
It's Oscar Isaac's Poe Dameron and Chewie.
That made me laugh! Love it :)
@@billhart9832 Also, Chewy looks like he showers weekly... Magnus?
"Whatever's cool, he's been into it for 50 or 60 years." That's the best quote about Gordon Murray I'll ever hear. Thanks Magnus.
@@lesflynn4455 thanks to the South African born Gordon Murray
Dario is a great representative for this car. Hes very good at fielding questions and explaining the vehicle so effortlessly.
Its clear he loves working for GMA and has a passion for these cars.
100%
Thank you Magnus for highlighting the fan. This hasn’t received enough attention in reviews of this car. Seems too much for many journalists to fully appreciate.
My thought exactly, great to have this covered, another astonishing piece of tech.
This is why I love this car. It’s not about HP, it’s all about the enjoyment of driving in the cars dynamics. There’s cars with close to 1800HP and it’s not usable everyday. Wish we all could experience this, afford it too lol
I think Tourbillion and T50s are both experiences are great. Roughly cost the same, and share the same love of Automotive Excellence. Just at different polarities.
@@marcwillardplus they have engines made by Cosworth.
@@_que Didn’t even think about that!
😍 It's all about Smiles per miles 🙂👍
That's why I'm using a Mercedes M120 V12 for my build 😎
@@marcwillard Tourbillon would be better if they ripped all the hybrid crap out of it and made it lightweight N/A purity like this.
I never followed Dario throughout his Indycar career, but I'm glad I've been exposed to him since. He is obviously very knowledgeable and talented, but he seems a really decent bloke. He'd make an excellent motoring journalist.
Sadly his racing career was cut short by injury in a serious wreck. One of the best drivers in his prime.
He and his Brother Marino are among my favorite car reviewers, along with Chris Harris. I can’t stand the schmeee, broken glass or DDE types. In other words, appreciate true drivers vs people that do it for attention or status. It’s so cringe
Great chat gents, Magnus knows what questions to ask, Dario knows more than enough to give educated answers
Ich bin Gordon Murray und GMA so dankbar für den Bau des T50 & T33 ❣️🙏🏼
Das sind super Sportwagen für mich ❕👍🏼
Kein übertriebenes Tech Festival, kein Auto wie ein Computerspiel... sondern pures fahren in Perfektion 😊
Auch das Cosworth diesen wunderschönen Motor gebaut hat dafür, ist Klasse 👌🏼
Ich hoffe, ich kann irgendwann einen dieser Fahrzeuge live erleben... aber wahrscheinlich muss ich dafür zum FOS nach UK 😅
Danke Magnus ❤️
Alles Liebe für 2025 und einen dicken Knutscha aus Berlin 🇩🇪,
Ramsi 😘 🙋🏻♂️
Frohes neues Jahr, Ramsi!
Ja, "Tech" is hier auch jede Menge verbaut, aber nur da wo es auch wirklich Sinn macht! Ansonsten liegt der Fokus hier auf dem Wesentlichen! Gut, der Fan hinten gefällt mir optisch immer noch nicht so wirklich... Aber es geht ja auch um Performance und ultimatives Fahrverhalten! Ja, auch wenn der F1 marginal schöner aussieht, so ist der T.50 definitiv das bessere Auto! Wobei beide Motoren etwas spezielles haben! Das geile Ansauggeräusch des S70 im F1, genauso wie der Hochdrehzahlsound im T.50!😍
Auf jedenfall hat hier Gordon sein 2. Meisterwerk für's Leben geschaffen!👌
Aber der T.33 gefällt mir auch! Fast gleich viel Drehzahl und Sound aber ein mehr klassisches Sportwagen Design und Layout. Für Leute, denen ein T.50 zu exotisch oder extrem ist...
@einautofan6685 Hey,
Frohes neues Jahr, Kevin ❣️🍀😃
Find den T33 auch hübscher als den T50... aber in der Mitte sitzen im Straßenfahrzeug, is halt auch mega.
Ich brauche praktisch 'n T50 und ein T33 Spider 😜
Normalerweise mag ich keine Spider... lieber Coupés... aber beim T33 kann man die hintere Scheibe runter fahren... das ist bei dem Motor bestimmt Ohrgasmisch 🤩
Die beiden Carbondach Elemente passen vorne in den Kofferraum ❕☝🏼
So, kann ich mir ein offenes Auto noch vorstellen 😄
Sei lieb gegrüßt aus Berlin,
Ramsi 🙋🏻♂️
@@Ramsi-Berlin Ohrgasmisch!😍😉🤣👍
Ich denke, alle GMA Autos werden im Wert gleich bleiben oder steigen! Alleine schon wegen den Cosworth Motoren und dem Sound! Abseits dessen sind diese Autos aber auch alles Kunstwerke!👌
@einautofan6685 Absolut ❕👍🏼
Aufgrund ihrer geringen Stückzahl von maximal 100 Fahrzeugen, werden sie immens im Wert steigen... ich schätze direkt nach Auslieferung 😅
Außerdem, werden wohl fast keine weiterverkauft... weil derjenige ja schön blöd wär ☝🏼🤣🤣🤣
@einautofan6685 Aber ich bin gespannt, wann der erste GMA angeboten wird auf dem Fahrzeugmarkt - und für welchen Preis vor allem ‼️😜
Thank you for leaving all the dialogue in! For a GMA aficionado, it’s a treat to hear every word!
The duel escort seats shows how much gordon understands his customers
He likes to pretend he didn’t steal the idea straight from Gianni Agnelli… but Italians know better where the idea came from 😉
Of course, nothing wrong with taking the idea, but certainly credit where you got it…otherwise, we’re gonna look at you sideways 😏 when you try to take full credit
@@AlbertManiscalco Nothing wrong with taking others good ideas.
@ no not at all. The problem is that he’s pretending like he came up with it.
@@AlbertManiscalco
It's more likely the result of wanting to put the driver in the center, where u put the passengers? That's right, flanking both sides of the driver so, it's just natural engineering, if one doesn't come to that conclusion first someone else will, and someone else will again, and may have not seen each other work.
@ cool story, but the timeline doesn’t add up. He got the idea from the 365. End of story… no matter what you say, guess which one came first? Therefore, even if he didn’t get the idea from him, which he obviously did, (for reference he started working in F1 in 69 and the 365 was created in 66), so history shows who came up with it first, regardless, and that can’t be rewritten no matter how much he (and his worshipers) try to pretend he didn’t get the idea from the 365 😁
even in the video, they make a point of the fact that he “was into everything cool 20 years ago” they essentially make him out to be a hipster, so there is zero chance he wasn’t aware of the 365… and I will grant you that three seats in that orientation is the superior set up, however, only somebody who is a fanboy would take your perspective. It’s obvious to anybody else... and it’s OK that he took the idea. It’s just that he’s been given full credit and in all the interviews, I’ve seen him in while doing promotion for this car it became clear that he wasn’t trying to give any credit and was taking full advantage of the fact that nobody remembers.
Also, don’t get me wrong he’s probably my favorite living car designer by a wide margin, but the fact that he tries to take full credit for the idea has always rubbed me wrong
Henry C is the only journalist I’ve seen actually driving the T50. I know that there’s zero upside as all are sold, but why do these if they feel more like marketing efforts. I love everything about this T50 masterpiece that I would never be able to enjoy personally, but would appreciate more independent perspectives from the driver’s seat.
Just read Magnus’ book whilst sat in a hospital waiting room for 7 hours. Great story, and an amazing story of how someone can go from nothing to wealth based on his own smarts. Congrats on that book Magnus.
Although it may look like The driver 'Dario' has picked up a hitchhiker from the Lord of the rings, A true Gentleman with a
90%=English and a
10%=American speech
Is 100%+ More than happy and doesn't give one iota about what people think. The revs of that engine is immense, if only it was taken to the Nevada/Desert/roads to put it through it's paces....... British ingenuity at it's finest!
salt flats at flat out would be cool to see
He's an awesome guy, but his accent is more so 60/40 British - American. You can tell he's lived there for many years already.
Even the Mustang was like: nope, let me get outta the way. Great video!
U gotta love these 2 guys....
and the car...
and Gordon, of course!!! ;)
12000 rpms! Good Lord that must be spine tingling.
I think you mean RsPM
@@dj_laundry_listjust RPM. Revolutions is already plural in RPM.
GMA T.50 comeback of the UK manufacturer making lightweight, analog, mechanical engineering masterpiece. This is what we known niche manufacturers from the UK for in the past.
Awesome video and great to hear from Dario🤟🤟😍😍
GMA sold out all their first run of cars stright out the gate, that's 325 not inexpensive cars all spoken for, that's bloody impressive for a brand new car maker. I don't remember how well pagani or koenigsegg did when they first started, but they would not have sold as many as that, mind you a car designed by Gordon Murray is an automotive equivalent of a painting by picasso, the values of those cars will only go up
Just an unbelievably crafted car! So finely tuned. Sounds so damn good! Love the fan on back such a wild look. Hell of a job you got there Dario! Was awesome just watching you drive it on those twisty roads.
I actually like how the production quality on this video isn't as high as it would be on other channels. It feel strangely more honest or raw. The only video feels very down to earth and "real" than other places.
Yes a G Murray fan since his exposure after the F1. We were always waiting for this and it is now here with two of the coolest car guys chatting about it…brilliant, thankyou. I think it will become the ultimate car as history unfolds. Funnily enough, I’d like the T 33 coupe..um if I could of course.
Great to see you back Magnus. Boy what a guest and car. 👍
Extraordinary project. GMA has provided a livable supercar that has more emotion, more engagement, and more simplicity than anything from today's top tier performance cars. I am so glad a car has been built to emotion and feel rather than braggadocios numbers. High price and extreme exclusivity are inevitable, but I would say this is still a bargain investment for the lucky few who received an allotment.
Magnus looks like an absolute stud without a hat on. Own it, Magnus!
It’s like a Valkyrie you can drive without going deaf. Some people in the comments were trolling but this is the real deal.
That thing is nothing like valkyrie....
Both have cosworth v12, thats the end of similarities
@@Vamppasactually i agree with the original comment, they are both focused on aerodynamics and light weight the difference is the concept they follow.
@@victormiguelmontero136 other one is meant to be the ultimate road car, other, valkyrie to be road legal f1 car... But I guess thats nothing. Seriously, totally different things.
Relax.
I will never be able to own one of these, but I very much hope GMA are able to get an accurate representation of this in something like Assetto Corsa.
Us buddy.
Us 🙌
Look at Magnus' face when they're going quick.
Serious face!
He knows it's the best he'll ever experience.
The sound is mind bending!
😍
I hope my V12 project sounds that good 🤞
Thx Magnus.. I a,ways appreciate the different angle👌💪
Angle from passenger perspective.
10:29, I love how the Subaru driver decided to do the Subaru thing as he entered the corner 😂
Always keen for a new video from car Gandalf.
Kind of waiting for someone critical to review the car. Not just Top Gear. Chris Harris comes to mind. Can we make that happen?
Same. It needs to be put through its paces without the influence of any company representatives.
The car is extraordinary (except for the wimpy looks), but needs an unbiased hand at the wheel.
Hagerty made a pretty good video of it. Henry was driving it without anyone from GMA in the car
This is refreshing. Everyone is hung up on 0 - 60 times and other fleeting markers of performance. Endless UTube videos of drag races between supercars.
Peak Car.!.!.! Absolutely the top of the mountain
The automotive Gandolf, the gray
Of gasoline . U Must have mistaken. It's Gandolf of Gazoline. Lol
Gandalf the Guru
400 lb v12 engine weight...let that sink in!
What a dream car
100% 😍 V12, 3 seats 🤤 Definitely a lottery win purchase 👍
I'm Building my dream V12 supercar😎
LA caisse ultime !!! ❤❤❤
Let Magnus drive this thing !!! 💪🚙🛸🚀
Great video! This car is a masterpiece.
100%
Best car ever! Easy...
I'm impressed with a lot of these high end cars for one one thing or another, but this I'm in love with, I think that's the difference and what makes GMA stand out. Murray just plays a different game to all other supercar makers, he stands alone from thought process to production of a car, Gordon makes the kind of cars that he'll enjoy driving himself, and he is able to translate the emotions and feelings he wants with his engineering prowess and stick it on four tyres😀
Never thought I'd see the day an Italian race driver with a thick Scottish accent riding around the mountains with Merlin the Magician in sneakers.
What a machine 😊🙌🏻
Best car ever.
Frodo on the burn, making sure Gandalf arrives PRECISELY WHEN HE MEANS TO.
I’m glad this car has at least one angle where it’s not ugly
love that beast ( and the toledano's!)
I think I need to camp out on the road From Tyndrum to Fort William to see and hear Dario fulfilling his wish to drive on the best road in Scotland.
Fantastic design 😎👍
I'd love to build a car with 3 seats 😍
Eagerness interest & elbows in the back of the car 👍👍👍great stuff beautiful car 👍👍🙏🇬🇧
That gyro cam on the roof is awesome!
Wow… 200+mph on PS4’s?!
Great video. 👏
Magnus is one step away from wearing a Tutti Frutti hat.
yeah that hat was really bad
Boatos que a T50 já tá custando quase 5 milhões, GMA não tá de brincadeira 🔥
o mais barato que eles seriam seria quando fossem novos, então esses 100 proprietários sortudos não apenas terão a melhor experiência com carros de estrada de todos os tempos, mas também ganharão dinheiro ao fazê-lo🤣
Light weight, small footprint, no “visible”downforce , traction from off the shelve rubber and that sweet sounding engine !!
Yes Professor Gordon Murray the genius F1 designer from Natal , Durban South Africa .
This has gotta be the best car anyone makes right now. Even the more spectacular Porsches weigh 1,000lbs more than this, and the characteristics of lower weight are something you just can't entirely fake with clever engineering. You'll never out-engineer good fundamentals.
I'm confident in saying T.50 is the greatest road car ever produced.
Ja, das glaub ich auch ❣️👍🏼
Auch der GMA V12 von Cosworth, wird einer der bedeutendsten Verbrennungsmotoren aller Zeiten werden ❕😊
Alles Liebe für 2025 und Grüße aus Berlin,
Ramsi 🙋🏻♂️
Gordan Murray is STILL ahead of the rest... a true living Car God.
Lightweight, small dimensions, and manual... He gets it!
what a motor !
Maaaaan, thought you was going to drive it!!!!!!! Best car today! then ST!! 😎
Honestly, Dario...
WTF!
For you to put up with and give a calm , intelligent response......
Bless you brother , bless you.
But I guess you get to play with THIS!❤
Epic wail from that cosworth
Outstanding
This car is clean, unadorned, no fussy styling flourishes, not too big. T.33 as well.
Magnus’s hair has become a G meter
Is it just me or does that V12 sound like a sports bike?
Such a unique and unusual sound.
1:41 Middle-Earth wants Gandalf back.
Those two in the cabin...Odd Couple.
HELLO FROM RUSSIA
=THIS IS A HOMELESS RUSSIAN BLOGGER FROM OUTSIDE MOSCOW=
Hello from KOROLЁV !
.that analogue feeling...you're feeling as one with the whole thing.......its like skiing...its like going through a slalom....
Just drive a 15 to 20 year old sports car/supercar, running on "skinny" tires.
Done.
Maybe the experience still not mathcing what this thing offers..
Magnus seems very impatient in this discussion
He just wanted to drive the car me thinks...
Well... he's a genuine petrolhead...
And as any other, we all become kids infront of such a beauty!!!
Noticed that as well.
Indeed, he does that lately and it is annoying. I like Magnus very much but he really needs to do away with that habit. It kills the harmonious flow.
Interrupts, “Tell me about…”
Interrupts, “Tell me about…”
Interrupts, “Tell me about…” Holy crap! Why ask the question at all if you’re not going to let him answer?
Other than the slightly dated styling this is Gordon's greatest Masterpiece!
If I could own any ONE car,It'll be a T50 in Silver....What a Weapon...Ha!! But why didn't we see Magnus driving it???
Insurance reasons.
Also legislative laws regarding driving prototype cars. If Magnus want to have a drive he would go to Spain just to test it just like other car reviewer who driven T. 50
"Wish it had a single clutch automated manual (S.C.A.M) like the venom f5" - no one
My first car was a 1 litre 3 cyl Daihatsu Charade......so basically 25% of this thing.
Was the horse figure also 25% of this thing?
If only that drive knew he got passed by Dario. That would be a cool story.
T.33 Spider 🕷️ is my favourite 👌🏻
@7:26 That engine is halcyon Cosworth, Magnus in maypole period, brilliant guys!
Until we get a real listen to the 8-liter Bugatti V-16! These are the fleeting last glimpses of ICE mechanical musical Magnus opus masterpieces. Electric motors may eventually outperform them but will never satisfy our souls the same way.
Magnus is a such an inspiration…for all the homeless people in LA
No center seat time for Magnus?
Well Gandalf seemed to enjoy himself!
Great video
Hope you drive it one day
Yes lightweight. Lessons to be learned...
😎👍
I'm making notes 📋
As much as I want to watch the till the end, I can't !! I can't stand people who ask a question and then interrupts !! He's done this in other interviews and reviews...
Ja, dass ist wirklich sehr unhöflich ‼️👍🏼
It’s called having a conversation, it’s not an interview.
Magnus and Leno, both interrupt people, while having a conversation or interview !! It f'n annoys me !! It's disrespectful ! It's not a one time thing they do- watch any of their programs, they always do it !!
7:23 and I have goosebumps .
Driving Perfection!
Cool watch (:
Love that blue
I like the clean cut Magnus. I think he went to a salon before shooting this video. His beard is clean & neat and his hair is not semi dreadlocked.
The center seating position is perfect, except that the passengers are left whispering in your ear from behind you.
Hey Magnus.
That was some interview huh?!
Magnus Walker´s hair is an officiel G-meter!!
Yes!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gordon is awesome...I'd walk around with the Car and Driver Magazine with the silver F1 on the cover all day rambling about it's tech. It's gonna be faster than a Ruf, Sledgehammer, and F40! I was about 14 and just amazed by the car. Always heard the story that Kenwood was the only company that could make a CD player for the F1 that was light enough compared to other brands would love to know if the little stories like that are true.
Great video and message.
Dario and you are both so cool.
What is needed is fun cars under 50k dollars....that look nice and are reliable and LIGHT.
If you want to save the sport/cars, do this.
The A110 was sort of on the right path....ashame it never got to the US. Miata is pretty much all we have in the US or old 911's...the latter are too costly. Now if a company made a 50 k 911 that was 2400 lbs....that would be the bees wax.
Ok we get it yada yada, put it on a track already
I think DARIO FRANCHITTI could have lended the car to someone at least once.
I mean, Jay Leno has the F1, and even he did not get to drive this one.
I think that not Dario's decision to make. Might get him in trouble.
Find an insurance company that would underwrite a policy for any driver on GMA t.50 😂
@@dool1002 Im sure that if you say the second driver is Jay Leno in California, they will get a police escort as a bonus.. As usual:]
neat
is anyone else other than Dario Franchitti allowed to drive this car?
Toledano Chan on the wrist 😉
Bravo! But,,,,what road is that??!!🤩🤩🤩
