Summary

The video is about a drag race between four cars: Mercedes AMG SL55, Porsche 911 GTS Cabriolet, BMW M850i Cabriolet, and Jaguar F-Type R Cabriolet. The host, Matt, introduces the cars and their specifications. Before the drag race, they have a "roof race" to see which car can lower its top the quickest.

The first drag race is a standing quarter-mile, and the Porsche wins with a time of 11.3 seconds, followed by the Jaguar (11.5 seconds), the BMW (11.7 seconds), and the Mercedes (11.9 seconds).

They then have a roll-on drag race from 50 miles per hour, with the cars in their sportiest setting and in manual mode. The Jaguar wins again, followed by the host in the Mercedes, and then the BMW.

The final test is a brake test from 100 miles per hour, where the host in the Mercedes wins, beating the Porsche and the BMW.
