not sure if someone posted this yet. But i don’t feel its anything like the real thing… Just don’t have the budget nor the amazing british accent and lines.

It’s just not the same. It would be a lot better with Adam Carolla.

threads merged…

watched trailer… will not follow this series unless it gets super awesome, which i highly doubt.

needs bigger budget and people that matter and have a history of actually being funny.

they would be better off having a couple regulars and subbing in a 3rd with cameos of people that matter… Leno, Seinfeld,

Heck, even frankie Muniz (spelling)

American top gear = 2/3 guys wearing flannel?

I’m still kinda shaking my head at the screen when it seems like they’re trying to emulate the chemistry of Clarkson et al.

“it’s like being aroused at gunpoint” was a pretty funny line though

the hosts just don’t seem like they’re friends, feels VERY acted

i am looking forward to a american version. i get sick and tired of the european perspective. before everybody goes bashing me i have lived in germany and england for over 5 years. i think they could do some great shows with more american cars.

i also think that tanner is a pretty good driver. he held his own quite well in battle of supercars vs paul tracey.
