Top Gear USA and the Z/28
Just watched the episode where they drive a stocker then switch over to aftermarket tuner version.
They started out with a SS/1LE and quoted Z/28 as 38K I'd buy two at that price and then a Hennessy prepped Z as 93K It also beat a 100K Porsche I'm sure that has a lot to do with the driver.

I refuse to watch any Top Gear without Jeremy, Richard, and James... I know, I'm so closed minded.

The sad USA Top Gear with the z28 on, appears to be on in a few hours. Hate to admit I want to watch it but just to see the Z.

I am so glad BBC Top Gear sacked his ass, after all these years Jeremy has mocked and made fun of America, and American cars I find it Ironic and American Company (Amazon) would rescue this racist douche. He isn’t a good driver or even a good automotive journalist.
Just look at the horrible work – I dint even have to look too hard to find it: http://www.driving.co.uk/car-reviews...ette-z06-2015/ http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-27253880 http://jalopnik.com/5932114/jeremy-c...of-us-find-him What a douche bag.

I love watching Jeremy and the other 2. He can jab away at the USA. I don't care. At least he's funny even if he's screaming for more power and a hammer....

Richard Hammond makes up for Clarkson's hate of American Muscle any day... he's a closet mullet head.

What's wrong with making fun of America? Yes, we're all proud Americans, but can't we take a joke? Besides, he makes fun of pretty much every country, not just the US.
That's my .02 anyway. |
