I don't think they know what muscle cars are really about.
Because that comparison of Camaro SS to a $90,000 Mercedes E63 AMG was a joke.

Alaska Special was a pretty good episode.
Too bad Ford didn't make it till the end.

This may have already been posted but I'm too lazy to read all 13 pages: are they going to showcase the 2011 GT or what? Last time they showed the mustang, it was not a flattering episode (then again, they are British). I would figure the gigantic leap forward the mustang made in 2011 would have put this car at the top of their list!

Those guys from the UK series were pretty lame for, heck formmost of the first seasom! But as time went on they got to know each other better and things got better quck. Their bond with each other snd their passion isnwhat made the show and i have a feeling that the US series will follow the same path

Adam? I dont think there was an adam on there and if youre talkin bout jeremy he was one of the most entertaining guys on there. I think it was Hammond who was boring as heck, guy with the ling hair?

Hammond's the short guy. James is the one with long hair. Captain Slow. Jeremy's the main host and show's producer. Love em all. Just wish I knew who Adam was.....

I don't know why so many people criticize Adam ... he's that clueless guy without who Top Gear USA couldn't work.

Adam Ferrara. I'm talking about the US Top Gear guys. Not the original UK version

I just don't like him. I don't find him funny or entertaining. If he's the only thing keeping TG USA alive then good riddance lol

IMO the first season of TG USA was much better than the first season of TG UK.
