About Comparison Footage
Comparison tests pit rivals against each other in controlled conditions, revealing strengths and weaknesses that only become apparent when cars are measured side by side. Whether it's a classic muscle car shootout between a Mustang and a Camaro, or a modern supercar battle on a closed airfield, these clips answer the arguments that car enthusiasts have been having since the invention of the automobile. The best comparisons combine objective data with subjective driving impressions to deliver a definitive verdict.
The 1980s in Music
The 1980s was the decade of excess, turbocharging, and the most terrifying rally cars ever built. Group B rallying produced monsters like the Audi Quattro S1, Peugeot 205 T16, and Lancia Delta S4 — cars so fast they were eventually banned after a series of fatal accidents. On the road, the supercar as we know it was born: the Ferrari F40, Porsche 959, and Lamborghini Countach became poster-car icons for an entire generation. Japanese manufacturers were engineering precision machines like the Toyota AE86 and Nissan Skyline that would become the foundation of an entire tuning culture. Video footage from the 80s is plentiful and often spectacular, capturing an era when automotive ambition had almost no limits.
