I never like the stars in the resonably priced car part and skip over it alot, maybe due to me not knowing who any of those people are.

Yeah, even if it is ugly, when it passed the tire wall, the sound it made was INSANE!!! Sounded like an F1 car!!!

Sometimes you'll see stars that we know. They had Simon Cowell (we all know who he is), Simon Pegg (Hot Fuzz, Shawn of the Dead), Helen Mirran, Kristen Scott Thomas, James Blunt and others. I find it amusing to see how they drive and what they are saying as they are recorded in-car! Funny stuff.

GT-R is fast, but ugly. It deserves my grudging respect. Still can't beat the Atom though!

Hope the hiatus isn't long.

hammond brought it up in the news section and said, " What if its a good car? Its got a 6.2L V8 and IRS in the back..." Clarkson and May were disgusted and said something like IRS has been around in Europe for 100 years. Then Clarkson said," Hammond you could look at a picture of Paris Hilton and say what if she's intelligent?"

hahaha, they weren't impressed to say the least

I have no idea.

But at least we don't have to wait for 12 months since American version (Gear) should premier in January.

yeah, its just not funny cuz they dont try to be. Its like a more "professional" version of top gear. Its like watching an automag review.

EDIT: When i typed Final Gear, I meant Fifth Gear. (Final Gear is the name of the website, not a show)
