looks good.. but the guys across the pond are realllly gonna hate on this haha clarkson should have a few words to say about us "fatties"

DroptopZ · 10-20-2010, 11:34 PM

I like it, but as others have said I'm going to miss the Stig

Some say he's the Michelin Man's younger brother, and that he once ate an entire wheel of cheese... at zero g. I'm going to miss Clarkson's introductions.

Yeah my camaro got a lot of chips, but they are fixing it for me. They are paying for a lot of things on the car. So I am happy and they treated me great.

Yeah that was a camaro jumping through the sign. It was a v6 they rented. I have a video of the whole stunt. It was really cool jump! Will post the vid when I get back from Vegas.

Not even worrying about the dust that got on the outside of the car... can you imagine the engine compartment and nooks and crannies of the undercarriage??... no thanks. I drive my car everyday and anywhere I go, rain or shine but no way I could deal with that much dust.

who cares.. really.. its more cars... more white smoke coming out of tires... and more muscle cars.... I personally I am looking forward to it.

stratman · 10-21-2010, 08:53 AM

I hope it's good but I also hope they don't screw it up. We have a decent track record of turning foreign, particularly English, shows into crap (The Office being an exception). I just worry that they will have less access to what makes the original so good. All those amazing European roads, backdrops and super cars. Not to mention all those cool models they don't sell here. Looking forward to it more after the trailers.

I JUST WANNA SEE SHIT DRIVING SIDEWAYS REALLY FAST!!!!!

srry caps lol

BeeBoy · 10-21-2010, 04:06 PM

Ok, the British show is not only about the cars driving fast. It is about the news, the personalities of the hosts, the dominating celebrity of JC, the politically incorrect remarks, the crazy/mean comparisons, constantly making fun of the government, the environmentalists, at times being really brutal. I don't think that the US guys will have the balls to be that bold. JC made the show what it is, he has been around for decades reviewing cars and has a huge reputation, nobody from the US cast even comes close to filling those shoes. In addition, do you really think that the US show host will be abel to say on US television something like "I would rather have smallpox hand-fed to me by taliban than drive this mustang"? (it's just an exaggerated example so lay off;-))I seriously doubt that they will be that brutal to a US automaker in the US. There is too much politics and fear of getting sewed and the network will not allow that. I would like to see what will happen with the show but am not optimistic.

Jessika · 10-21-2010, 04:26 PM

were the dirt scenes filmed at El Mirage?
Here's what I got when I went to the taping

MartiMcFly · 10-21-2010, 04:51 PM

Looks annoying.

Was it just me or on the second shot when the guy with the beard and glasses is just moving his hand across the steering wheel and is not actually turning it?

SS4PK · 10-21-2010, 07:28 PM

I think it will be a good show. Tanner Foust is pretty cool and I have liked him on his other two shows. I like Top Gear but after watching a bunch of episodes back to back I realized I really got tired of Jeremy Clarkson.
