Top Gear is one of the best automotive shows on tv. If you are getting pissed by them you need to loosen up a bit.

well i have watched quite a bit of their shows and they are always down on the american cars like the one where they try to fill the caddie with water but it wint fill because it leaks so bad and then they do it do a jag and it barely drips at all. It is just stupid the way they act about american cars.

I like the show. As for the brit... eh. They have a lot of good cars on that show and they give a lot of insight into cars I'd never drive.

i watch that show alot and jeremy the host loves the vettes. he does hate alot of american cars. b/c alot of american cars are **** compared to foreign cars (European)

not everyone wants a car that can just go fast. they want a smooth ride, good handling, quick , nice interior, and easy to control at any speed.

i love domestics and fbodies. but american cars lack in alot of these areas.

I think top gear is the best car show on TV. It is certainly the best funded giving it the more resources and access to cool *** cars w/o issue. Sure Clarkson is an ***, but that is just him. He is still funny, the other dude kinda evens it out. He likes big power, he also just released a GREAT story about muscle cars. (american muscle cars at that)

Hell of a show, and hilarious at times. I wish they'd let the Stig swing a Camaro or Cobra around the test track!

I won't let a little hating from those crumpet munchin', tea sippin, crooked toothed, jolly ol' English bastards get the best of me. They're just butt-hurt that their beloved Aston Martin V12's are rocking Ford Taurus internals, and their water tight Jags are more reliable as fish tanks then daily transportation.
