Gordon Murray is a true blessing to the automotive world. His philosophy is not only aligned to car enthusiasts, but more imporantly GMA's single-minded, no compromise focus means that philosophy actually arrives in the world unfettered.
I agree it's a shame there wasn't the technology to do it 10 years ago so he had more time before everything has to be electric. Can you imagine what he would have come up with.
Trouble is with the way the world is going and the damage that is being don’t to the environment petrol cars are on the way out and Electric is the way to go and when the car probably cost over £1million who’s going to be able to afford them anyway.
meh, paddle has its advantages and to me it's the perfect middle ground between fully auto and manual. In sequential gearbox, the computer does all the shifting but you still control when he does it
I see it 100%. I’m not a die hard “manual for life” guy, but I feel that the engine choice has a lot to do with it. Had this been a turbo engine I think paddle shift would had more takers. Pure lightweight super car with a high revving NA engine, I’m opting for the manual every time no question.
Gordon Murray doing personal interviews with so many media outlets to announce and talk about new cars is such a brilliant marketing move, really helps to build up the image of what is a fairly new brand and truly establish him as the face of it all and show the attention to detail that goes into these cars.
It's a tragedy that even companies like GMA are saying that this will be the last of the naturally aspirated V12's. I did a Lamborghini Factory tour in Italy a couple of weeks ago and it was heart-breaking to hear that Lamborghini's mighty NA V12 will also be ending with the Aventador production run. They won't say what it's going to be replaced with, but you could see the hurt in the eyes of the workers there.
It is way too difficult to even talk about. Electric cars seem very artificial.. it is just electricity converted into speed. There is no sound that tells your senses that an engine is working to create speed. It is MORE than sad, It is MORE than heartbreaking. It is devastating.
@@a.awm4 I hope that way of thinking prevails when we realize battery electric cars aren't the solution. Honestly if we really tried to fix this, investment in public transport and synthetic fuels would help a lot more than subsidizing expensive electric SUVs

Back in the day we would have had a 5-10 minute slot on Top Gear about the T33. Now we have a whole series of different journalists asking their questions and they all bring out different things. I've been enjoying them all. Loved the Connaught V10 segment. Fascinating that Gordon has a Honda S800 and Jay Leno has a S600. I have a feeling he will like the V10 MX5.
I'd love to hear Gordon Murray dissect the Connaught, he can only talk so much about his own cars inner workings but it'd be fascinating to hear him review another engine.
There's no greater passion for craftsmanship, engineering, and love for cars than creating a car where every element serves a purpose. It's just awesome!!
I have to say, just from an aesthetic point of view, in my opinion the t33 beats the t50 (which I love from the aesthetics) by a lot! It is absolutely stunning! I truly am mesmerised.
This car is magnificent!!!! The sharp lines leading to the headlamps, the perfectly crafted smooth contours are overwhelming! The Ford GT rear - the 60’s Lambo race car side profile - the Porsche like front end… just stunning!!!
It does look cool. But at the price you are getting very little value for your money. It should really be 3 to 6 times cheaper. You are essentially paying $1.8 million for a new 1950s styled small sports car, with an over the top engine. You could buy 18 to 24 new Porsche Boxsters, or 3 new Lamborghini Aventadors or 10 new AC Cobra 378s for the same price as just one of these.
He's so incredibly knowledgeable about so many different automotive technologies and ideas, it's such a pleasure that he's also a very nice man, and not anywhere near as arrogant as he deserves to be. Great episode!
There are 7 principals in GMA they stick to. Gordon, we all know there is an 8th principal that is more important than anything else: Passion. We can see it, and we appreciate it. Thank you for sharing your passion with us and giving us a pure representation of that immense passion in the form of these four wheeled love letters.
It's so refreshing to see a relatively new automotive company making these kinds of beautiful cars with such an attention to detail and engineering, plus Gordon Murray seems like a genuine and down-to-earth kind of guy. Really looking forward to see what GMA is gonna produce in the near future!
I nearly didn't Gordon after 30+ years, but still such an interesting guy. I met him and had a 15 minute chat, whilst we waited in the foyer at Yamaha's headquarters at Brooklands. Such a laid back chap and such a genius designer. Doubt he'd remember chatting with me, but my goodness, I certainly remember meeting him!
This is incredible. The old knowledge, passion and thought and purity... versus the Swedish newest innovation in the Jesko which is also gunning for that fastest responding etc
What a machine. Gordon is so briliant. Very happy that he thinks about how these cars will look in 10 years so he doesn't fall for present day styling gimmicks.
One of the most beautiful cars ever reminds me of a more beautiful version of the Alfa 4C, and that is NOT a bad thing at all. Murray is a genius, I'm so glad we have GMA in these times where shitbox Ev's are being forced down our throats.
Love the air box being locked to the engine…. If there was any way I could afford this car it would be a pre-purchase. As an older American I do completely understand the views of a minimalistic car in contrast to todays “bells and whistles”.
This is the most natural and comfortable interview with Gordon Murray in the slew of interviews from the last couple of days. Watching them back to back makes me think he must've been exhausted -- a long day!
He did design one but GMA isn’t equipped to produce cars at high volumes and he doesn’t want to make high volume cars so if some company buys the design off him they could produce it
Do you know how hard it is to produce thousands of cheap cars needed to ensure you can still make a profit and keep costs down? It’s almost impossible. If they only made 100 Mx-5s they would have to be like 150-200 grand to even break even. Elon musk dreamed of making a cheap model 3 but hasn’t succeeded yet because scaling is the hardest thing with regards to manufacturing. It’s a whole different ball game
I am following Gordon from the F1, his knowledge and Philosophy about cars and their tech is EPIC, He is the only guy who is capable of keeping his philosophy of design alive. He is the GEM of Automotive Industry From the FANBOY and the F1 to the T-50 he has done an amazing job specially with Cossworth, even they have come a long way to come up with that V12 revving up to 12,000 rpm. Its like the purest soul of Automotive engineering. A great Applause to GMA team from all the purist in INDIA, I know that GMA wont come to India. But i hope i can meet him once before he's gone.. Love you Gordon
I love how Gordon rattles off 3 of my favorite cars as the inspiration for this. It has the lines and mystique of a 60's era race car, what a beautiful thing it is.
Very cool indeed Mike, you now have Gordon's seal of approval for your V10 NB. Top stuff indeed! I look forward to a hurl in it when it's done. I'll put the kettle on and you can compare it to my ND.
Gordon Murray is one of the very-very few people who actually earned the right to say "i can categorically say this is the best road car engine ever made" for the car he made... a true legend
Thanks for some out of the box questions for Gordon! The roller bearing crank of the Connaught V10 catched my eye as well, would be cool if you could bring the final assembly of the engine to the channel!
Gordon Murray doing all of these superb media interviews really illustrates that he's building the cars he wants to drive, simply because he wants to. I'm not even sure if money comes into it. He's like a particularly articulate school student, explaining their science project - the enthusiasm and passion is obvious. Bravo sir!
I would love this beautiful little car with the larger motor. I can’t afford one so it’s only conjecture, but I can’t get my mind around a 2.0 liter engine even if it revs to 20k lol. I don’t need the fan, as I won’t be on a track, I do prefer more torque. The perfect car for me would I be this little two seat car, manual transmission with the larger engine. Brilliant engineer. Great content.
The day we loose Gordon Murray will be the end of the motorsport era. He's the only one left who understands why the classics were so iconic and still are to this day, from the aggresive angles to the smooth curvy beautyes, all gone for the bland "modern desing", AKA lack there of. You can tell that the T33 uses the best of the newer supercars with the amazing shapes from back in the day to absolute perfect harmony.
wow the back gives me Isdera Commendatore vibes. this whole car just reminds of the awe i felt as a kid playing NFS 2 and seeing all those crazy supercars and being excited for what the future of racing looked like
With the upmost respect buddy - The T50 and 33 have the same design language as the McLaren F1… evolution design process. Gordon left McLaren almost 20 years ago 🙌🏼
Achingly lovely design (IMO), another great video and glad to see Gordon Murray creating more excellence! What I would give to be behind the wheel of this
This is a much more beautiful and mature looking car than the T50. T50 looks a bit weird from some angles and some proportions makes it look a bit fat at places.
Yes, the T.50 having three seats has left it looking a bit weird in places. The T.33 is much more of a looker! It's sad they all will be stashed away and never driven
Hi Gordon Murray mentioned a Honda S 600 , I had one of the first S800’s in the UK 1967 . 4 cylinder twin ohc 4 Keihin carbs 4 Exhausts Siamesed int 2 outlets, roller bearing crank , red lined at 9500 rpm , in lower gears Rev counter went off the clock to estimated 13000 rpm , 100 % reliable ! and fantastic sounding , Look it up , it was Hondas way to prove they didn’t just make lawn mowers and mopeds.
Great one Drivetribe! I hope someday Mike Fernie teams up with Sam Fane from Seen thru Glass and Tim Burton from Shmee 150 to REALLY bring back Top Gear.
The feeling of “leaving the T.50 special” is pretty apparent around the T.33. I don’t doubt it’s a great car but for my 1.8m I’m not sure if I like the feeling that the car was neutered
I definitely feel that way too but it comes down to its exclusivity and pureness to justify its price, I really couldn't imagine to be asked to order one...
I don’t think the t33 is “neutered” it’s just a purer driving experience because it’s not over the top. It’s the best supercar they can make, but it’s not a hypercar. I think that’s what he’s trying to say
It's not neutered at all. 1090kg and 615hp. It doesn't have a fan or as excessively fantastic aero, but it's no slouch of a car. I love the design of it too, I think I like it more than the T50.
I don't have 1.8 million to spend on a car so I don't particularly care. I think he wanted to design a car with classic 60s proportions, and a middle seat car just doesn't allow that.
This has to be the most beautiful car I've seen in years! It looks like something from the 60th, when legends were designed to be clearly recognizable for generations ahead. And of course something like this has to be stick shifted!
I really love simplicity in design. As a car enthusiast myself it's terrifying to see manufacturers copy each other and add these ridiculous.... Appendages. The simplicity reminds me of nature
This is all over my head but I do love Gordon looking at that v10 block and being all "not what i would do but this is still cool and should be rather fun"
Gordon Murray is a true blessing to the automotive world. His philosophy is not only aligned to car enthusiasts, but more imporantly GMA's single-minded, no compromise focus means that philosophy actually arrives in the world unfettered.
He truely is, the F1 is still a engineering marvle 30 years on, the effort thats gone in to the T50 range and the new T33
I agree it's a shame there wasn't the technology to do it 10 years ago so he had more time before everything has to be electric. Can you imagine what he would have come up with.
You just give him praise because you only want to, ryt
Trouble is with the way the world is going and the damage that is being don’t to the environment petrol cars are on the way out and Electric is the way to go and when the car probably cost over £1million who’s going to be able to afford them anyway.
@Cricket England it's 1.34 million plus extras so yer nothing anybody watching this is going to afford.
Apologies for the numerous voice squeaks, I'll never not be completely starstruck by Sir Gordon!

This is the best coverage of this, everyone else’s was too long. Well done Mike ✌️
@@jonahminkove4944 not the CZcams channel. The website is
that car looks much better than a lot of other modern hyper and supercars. It's brilliantly beautiful

Because it looks like an old supercar
Because it takes design cues from timeless classics.
Less is more my friend... Less is moore.

Only 3 people chose paddle shifts so far? I am so proud of this community

I love how Mike carries his little block around and says look at my engine
I want him to put it in a pram with a blanket and ask others if they want to see his baby
... and then Gordon returns quickly to say how fantastic his own baby is ... Like two mothers in a park ...
Mike won with his jeggings
It's like Neil Armstrong's kid showing him his macaroni rocket ship. Adorable and desperate for approval 😂
I am getting tired of it, frankly. I want him to shut up about it until it is running and driving. It's not like he lacks material.

@@sidrens5292 They're similar but they look better. All the lines are much smoother and the new cars flow better
@@elnyoutube123 absolutely agree!!! The F1 is still epic!
Amazing video Mike well done!!!
Achingly lovely design (IMO), another great video and glad to see Gordon Murray creating more excellence! What I would give to be behind the wheel of this
I never wanted a car as much as I want this one. Full throttle or just cruising listening to The Cramps, my girl........heaven!
This is a much more beautiful and mature looking car than the T50. T50 looks a bit weird from some angles and some proportions makes it look a bit fat at places.
Yes, the T.50 having three seats has left it looking a bit weird in places. The T.33 is much more of a looker! It's sad they all will be stashed away and never driven
Hi Gordon Murray mentioned a Honda S 600 , I had one of the first S800’s in the UK 1967 . 4 cylinder twin ohc 4 Keihin carbs 4 Exhausts Siamesed int 2 outlets, roller bearing crank , red lined at 9500 rpm , in lower gears Rev counter went off the clock to estimated 13000 rpm , 100 % reliable ! and fantastic sounding , Look it up , it was Hondas way to prove they didn’t just make lawn mowers and mopeds.
Great one Drivetribe! I hope someday Mike Fernie teams up with Sam Fane from Seen thru Glass and Tim Burton from Shmee 150 to REALLY bring back Top Gear.
Gordon has once again proven that he's leagues above anyone else in this industry.
The feeling of “leaving the T.50 special” is pretty apparent around the T.33. I don’t doubt it’s a great car but for my 1.8m I’m not sure if I like the feeling that the car was neutered
I definitely feel that way too but it comes down to its exclusivity and pureness to justify its price, I really couldn't imagine to be asked to order one...
I don’t think the t33 is “neutered” it’s just a purer driving experience because it’s not over the top. It’s the best supercar they can make, but it’s not a hypercar. I think that’s what he’s trying to say
It's not neutered at all. 1090kg and 615hp. It doesn't have a fan or as excessively fantastic aero, but it's no slouch of a car. I love the design of it too, I think I like it more than the T50.
I don't have 1.8 million to spend on a car so I don't particularly care. I think he wanted to design a car with classic 60s proportions, and a middle seat car just doesn't allow that.
In 200 years time people will pay money to have a look at this in a museum...it is art!
This car will look classy decades from now.
This guy simply designs the best cars this earth has ever seen.... period
This has to be the most beautiful car I've seen in years!
It looks like something from the 60th, when legends were designed to be clearly recognizable for generations ahead.
And of course something like this has to be stick shifted!
I love the idea of the last great V12. I will probably never own one but engines with less than five cylinders should not have any cylinders at all.
Yes finally you understand the rule about anything over 4 cylinders is just mathematically great and 4 cylinders is not optimum
These should never be made in large numbers. This is just beautiful to look at
Wow the resemblance of the F1 in the rear is fantastic!
“As the electric ocean overtakes us all, we’ll be the last N/A V12 flag waving.”
-Gordon Murray
Manjefiek!
NO pertol driven engine should be of an internal combustion capacity of larger than two litres.
It is just so smooth!
Excellently executed!
i totally agree with him about the led light bars most new cars look so silly
What an interesting guy. Obviously very clever, very experienced, and a talented designer.
Unfortunately people like him are becoming very rare.
Mike are you wearing that jacket for a bet????
Quite simply, an absolutely beautiful car. Probably, my favourite and the best design lines I have ever seen.
Well, one thing for sure, Murray was not here to talk about anything but HIS engine... fair enough i guess...
A most delightful presentation, great discussion and a beautiful car. Well done.
I really love simplicity in design. As a car enthusiast myself it's terrifying to see manufacturers copy each other and add these ridiculous.... Appendages.
The simplicity reminds me of nature
ahh the old T.33 for the old freemasonic lodge chumps, perfect timing since they are about to kick of WW3
well done gordon
i'm sure gordon is a great guy but there's something about the people who praise him that remind me of the steve jobs fanboys
The production and Gordon’s entrance music😂
Worst clickbate ever. How could you talk about the greatest engine för 20min to us petrolheads and not a single soundtrack of it revving?
Really happy that Gordon is making cars like this still. I feel like we need these to exist.
While not a passionately thrilling shape, it's certainly more attractive than the T.50.
Agree 100%
5:25 Mr. Murray is just such a wicked designer
It would be so amazing if GMA made something for less than 100k. No tech, just a lightweight sportscar.
This is amazing I love how the auto industry is progressing passion still exists
You can tell this car is for true driving enthusiasts when the paddle shift gearbox, the faster box, is hardly optioned by any buyer.
every wannabe car guy now knows that they must drop the "i prefer a manual" to impress people. It's cliched already.
This car is gonna have automatic rev match in the manual version. Manual option in 2022 is for posers.
@@nightdriver7216 Or people that simply enjoy driving engagement.... honestly what a flog.
This is all over my head but I do love Gordon looking at that v10 block and being all "not what i would do but this is still cool and should be rather fun"
