Which is EXACTLY the part he is playing.

It's humor. When they are making fun of something else, they are really making fun of themselves...

As a Brit, I love Top Gear USA. For me, it's a mix of the locations, the cars and the hosts. Personally, I think the 3 are now gelling nicely together. I have Seasons 1 and 2 on DVD and will happily watch them over and over.

I think the 3 from the US are getting better! My 12 year old daughter loves to watch this show with me!

I've watched 4 or 5 episodes, and just cant get into the US version. I dont care for the 3 hosts, they blow. I like the UK version.

Top Gear UK is one of my favorite shows. I like the US version, but it's completely different. I just like cars, so it's a fun watch if you don't take it too seriously. It's just a TV show at the end of the day.
