Absolutely zero argument with that but that could be said about 95% of the chit on the tube... (or more)

I don't watch either Top Gear to learn about cars but I really enjoy seeing them thrash the cars around.

INXS

Saw an episode where Stig was unmasked to reveal formula 1 driver Michael Shumacher.

that was a fake unveiling. the REAL stig who did it for a long time (obviously there are more then one) actually is a stunt driver for the last few james bond movies and taught daniel craig how to drive

I watch the Us version weekly. I think it is funny and good for entertainment purposes. Do I learn about cars? No.. I would rather watch that then "The real housewives of __________ county". Or whatever ******** that they decide to put in tv. The damn kids of an attorney for OJ Simpson are freaking prime time tv. What a waste of life.

The best way to get the Brit, USA and 5th gear episodes is downloading them in HD from www.finalgear.com They get them the day after the initial showing in the homeland, and with no commercials so you get more show.

I've been getting them from this site for years, after I download I stream through HDMI from my Laptop to the big screen. Tip, download the 720p versions, they are smaller and look great even on 1080P 61" sets...they also fit on regular DVD's also.

THANKS JETninja! I've never heard or or seen 5th gear but I'll check it out too!

JETninja

5th Gear is an ok watch, very Brit crew and they've been running for a long time. They do test a lot of worthwhile auto's...

Indeed lol Jeremy, James and Richard are far more entertaining the the us guys, I do like the us show but I hate Adam Ferrara...

The BBC version is one of the best shows on TV. The US version is one of the worst. That being said, if Jeremy Clarkson pushes on the rear bumper fascia of another 'Vette and calls them "cheap", one more time, I'm cancelling my subscription!

The funny thing about that is that he went out and bought a Z06 after the episodes where they drove up the west coast.
