Summary

TLDRThis script details a new car review series comparing rival vehicles in head-to-head 'grudge matches' to determine the fastest factory-spec GT cars. In the first matchup, Chris Harris pits the new Aston Martin DB12 against the BMW M5 CS on a wet track. Despite less power, the BMW's all-wheel drive system gives it substantially more grip, allowing it to set a much quicker lap by 1.7 seconds. Though conditions were unfair for the rear-wheel drive Aston, Harris declares the BMW the best GT car in the world for its shocking performance packaged in a practical 5-series body.
