Hi All,
I am a big fan of Top Gear the British version. Now we have a US version as well. I'm curious to know which you like the best
. Im not sold on the US version :thumbsdown: but interested to know what my fellow gear-heads think about it?

The british version is awesome, specially when it comes to making the video's for the cars and ofcourse the undeniable humor and puns that they have.
The U.S. version imo is a little bland. however that can always be easily improved.
i think the challenge for the us version is how to live up to the standard that was put in place without exactly replicating the british version.

My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
British version - best show on TV
American version - repeats all the Brit tests and challenges with none of the humor or class, generally a piece of donkey dung
Funny someone calling themselves "Nocrapplease" giving someone crap about a subject in the LOUNGE, it's kinda what this section is here for. Don't like the lounge? Go read the other sections, no need to be a douche

Considering the challenges are pretty much identical....it's still a very funny show. I enjoy watching it...while it may not have the British humor. To be honest I enjoy watching the American version just as much as the British one.
I'm hoping they'll make more than one season.
