I like the show. It's hilarious, very well made, and the three hosts have great (if contentious) rapport.

But Clarkson especially doesn't like American cars, and also seems to forget the 'value for money' factor, often comparing a ride he's ragging on to something $30,000 (or more) more expensive than it is.

Hammond has a fondness for American cars, but he's rarely given his say on screen, without allowing Clarkson to immediately hand-wave his opinion.

So I'm not expecting a fair review for the 2010 Camaro from the Top Gear guys. What's I'm hoping for is that we'll get that wonderful squirming from Clarkson when the US car is good and he's trying desperately not to admit it.

The look on his face and the sound of his voice when the Corvette went 'round the track faster than the Ferrari 550 or the Pagani Zonda was priceless.
