I really likes the Nissan GT-R vs the bullet train in Japan in season 11. I love Top gear and fifth gear. Fifth gear have better driver..Tiff needle jason plato and that blonde aint half bad! But the humor of the top gear is very entertaining and there test are quite orginal when testing cars
I love the Exige vs helicopter fighter!

I use to watch alot when i was in europe know i catch old episodes on AMerica BBC

Oh and the STIG is the shit!

[Cethe]

I like to have a top gear clip in one window and a VOD cars clip in another with the same car & see who drives better....

VOD cars, much riskier driving...but usually illegal too.

[jovana]

its on every day here several times. i hate it and love it. its pretty much what we watch when nothing is on and my husband loves the show. i dunno if yours is the same as ours though since americans and brits tend to drive different cars.

[TurntableTruth]

there has been talk of a us version with adam corolla as the "jeremy" version pretty much... but i dont know for shure...
i could be dreaming tho...

[Rigel]

I thought this was about the game series haha. Top Gear was the de facto video game racing series before Gran Turismo. Played the 1st 3 games to death.

Anyone else played it?

My guess is the series lost its luster right when aliens started showing up to hijack the premise.

that is 100% true.

i saw it at the talent agency i worked at. they were looking for co-hosts to star with adam corolla.

[Cethe]

OH GOD PLEASE DON"T!!!

no adam corolla...hate that fat fuck.

I'll stick with my british version on youtube anyday.


steve, please if you have any pull...any sway....please help make this NOT happen :)

[sentravq]

Drift King tanner foust(he will be the version of that small guy) is going to be along with adam corolla in the US version.
Auto Motor und Sport is also a good tv car series but its in German. They use to have english dubbed version on it on KCTS and the international channel. Adam corolla is knowledge about cars and is a big time nissan fan!

[Cethe]

knoeledgable or not, dude just grates on my nerves like none other. well except maybe will ferrel.

but at least they got a good driver ... jsut stuff an exhaust in adams mouth & i guess i'll be happy

[sentravq]

Just dont put Jay Leno on there!

[Cethe]

or any already popular hollywood asshats, IMO.

keep it british & broadcast it in the US...OBVIOUSLY WE LIKE THE BRITISH VERSION!!

gawd I hate hollywood sometimes.

[sentravq]

No they should put me on there and my wife and you could be the stig!

[Cethe]

werd. as long as I get to drive once and a while.


but really i'm more into the off road speed, then road & track racing.

that'd be kewl though start featuring some 4x4 speed... 100+ mph sideways in the dirt around a corner...yum!!

[sentravq]

ok you get to drive the porsch cayenne turbo, jeep SRTs, trailblazers SS, GMC Typhoons, etc while i get to drive konesigg CCX-r, nobles, GT-R, porsche GT2, turbos, cayman s, RS. BMW M3, M5, M6, 750iL, Audi RS$ RS6,S8 w12, etc.

[Cethe]

dont' forget I get to drive travis' subaru wrc car :) shoot it can even be the 1999 not the new 2009 one ;)

jay leno is too biased when it comes too cars!
Adam corolla, Tanner Foust, Danica Patrick and with Keiichi 'Drift King' Tsuchiya as the STIG!

and the joke is lost on you.


i know he's not actually fat....but EVERYONE i generally dislike is a "fat fuck" in my book...it really has nothing to do with their weight or anything.

adam simply grates on my nerves. personally, regardless (almost) would not go out of my way to watch any american top gear.

[gingerballs]

Yeah it was.

[sentravq]

They should put Frankie Muniz as someone they rag on just like that fat fuck in the UK one. And no Jay Leno; i'd rather have Patrick Dempsey if you wanna go Hollywood!

[jovana]

i sort of don't like knowing...its dissapointing, but i just couldn't help but read.....

Top Gear is a great show:)

i always thought there were several of them...and whomever was availible on the day donned the suit.

i wonder if they bring it to the states if they will have the stig's fat american cousin.

i cannot imagine them doing a us version though....half the fun of top gear is how much they make fun of americans.

Yea Clarkson always seem to make fun of the americans; however they almost got their asses kick when they did that US special down in the south.
