    I have the Hot Wheels vector in Red and it appeared in Rising Sun. With the late Sir Sean Connery, Wesley Snipes, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Mako Iwamatsu, plus the 90s super models and Tia Carrere, my crush from the Wayne's world movies and others. But they crashed a silver mock up of one.

    I still have my 77 ta in seen in my thumbnail.
    And I still love it.
    Why didn't you show the results? Seems like a this episode is just an advertisement for the Nissan altima, instead of a head to head test?
    I'm so disappointed!
    Awesome Vector!

    I always wanted a Trans-am… my dad had the Bandit 1 & Bandit 2 Trans-am’s… I loved riding in them… Then when I was old enough, straight to the Pontiac dealer and I got a FIRE CHICKEN of my own… it was after the whole KIT car of Knight Rider times… it was way better and way faster… then came the Trans-am GTA… OMG it was my absolute favorite of all the Trans-am’s I had ever driven, it chirped 3rd gear without even getting on it, what’s even funnier is the very first one in 1987, you could only get an automatic… crazy fun car…. I should have kept it forever… if I’d known for one second that Pontiac was one day going to disappear…. I still cry thinking about never having a brand new Trans-am again…. The memories are mine forever!!!! Xoxoxox

    The Vector really needed a transmission. That old 3-speed auto is not the stuff of supercars. Also, it's probably more geared to show high top speed than great acceleration numbers. I wish someone would make a re-body of the C8 Corvette with a Vector body.

    I get why comparing a Nissan Altima to these is interesting. People are gonna make fun of these poster cars, but should keep in mind if these cars were made today they'd probably decimate the Altima's time.

    It's a real pity I can't watch these episodes even though I'm subscribed (something about licensing issues in my country, maybe?) and it's a real pity I can't stay subscribed on MTOD after August.

There was a time when u could pick up deltas for peaunuts die to their bad rust reputation ( which is ironic as everything rusted in that era) Thing is you need po£££ds to run one not peanuts ! I was brought up in to a family with 2 Fulvias . Red and white. Its sad to me that probably one of the biggest most important manufacturers has been Mis managed it makes any real car guy angry . Imagine if they were like an off shoot of Fiat a performance one and given carte Blanche to create road and rally cars but in limited quantities.
