The UK guys are funny and know their $hit. The US guys are just ordinary dudes that arent even "car" guys. The US version sucks!

Jay Leno and a couple of real car guys would make the show much better.

Got the tivo set, thanks for the heads up! I don't watch for the hosts, I like the hardware. The lambos were cool, although they couldn't drive them worth a crap.

I think the only way those two morons could be cast on that show is if they paid to be there or their fathers are the producers. I love cars but that show is unwatchable. So many interesting original things they could have done. Such a wasted oportunity.

Okay, which one of you says Tanner Faust isn't a "car" guy?

The only British version I saw had a Chrysler 300C Hemi and they bashed it as a brut with HP but un-reformed handling (I have a Charger SRT-8). They said the English have their own 4 door "performance car" and pitted the Chrysler against a M5 claiming it was just as fast with a more enjoyable ride, etc.......
The M5 costs nearly triple what a Chrysler Hemi (non-SRT version) costs. Seemed pretty biased and I never watched it again.

They said the Vette was pretty good...Uhhh yeah!.....its MORE than good and they were surprised the A/C worked well (unlike their cars).....and they have that stupid studio audience hanging on their every word....YOU DONT NEED A STUDIO AUDIENCE ON A CAR SHOW!!!..... Im British as h ell and I cant stand it.
