Waiting for a new, delayed Top Gear season is more painful than waiting for my V wagon to be built. Really.

Really, "people of America". I, for one, welcome the three. Well, except maybe Clarkson, who can't take care of his AMG Black properly.

I think we should cut Jezza some slack. I don't think we can appreciate how difficult it is to own six high-luxury/sports cars at a time ...

Finding time to drive all of them must be really difficult.

Torrent for the DVD is up

Surprised at the outcome, much closer to home than you'd expect

That annoyed me a bit. And the LFA sounds......

They definitely picked the right car at the end though.

No one bashes my F50!

Yeah the LFA sounded great! I love that car. I feel like they spent more time with that car than any other though

And yes, the car selected at the end deserved to "win" the title. I've driven a few and they are hunks of junk.

Apparently they're down the street from me today filming on the Gandy Bridge and are shutting down traffic because of it. I woke up to two text messages and an email telling me that they were here. Probably just some lackey doing it and not them, but the presenters are probably here somewhere

LFA is my ultimate dream car. Period. Sure others are cheaper and faster and maybe even prettier but nothing sounds like that Toyota V10 and the interior is the sickest of any super car ever made.

I also kinda disagree with the final verdict. That car is pretty terrible but there are so many cars out there that are worse IMO...

I guess there was some confusion at first. It's actually Rutledge Wood of the USA show driving a Veyron Super Sport Convertible across the Gandy Bridge which is popular for street racing. That is where dumbass Nick Hogan raced(s). Though I thought all the idiots had moved to Courtney Campbell Causeway instead.

FYI, there's three bridges between Tampa and St. Pete/Clearwater, the most Southern Bridge is Gandy and Courtney Campbell is the most Northern.

Apparently this was big news and the local Fox station was out covering it live throughout the day and a bunch of looky-loos showed up and they cancelled the shoot because it was too dangerous for onlookers. Supposedly they were planning to hit 250mph on the bridge, now they're looking for somewhere else to shoot.
