Awesome episode. Downloaded last night, watched at lunchtime.
Brilliant!
I love the gas tips......"If you've been affected by the fuel crisis, this is the supercar to buy."...in reference to the Audi R8.
at 5 mpg on the track!

I hope that NBC gives up on the American Top Gear--it is bound to be dull and uninspiring in comparison, not to mention full of car ads that will water down any bite or honesty the show might havev. Nothing, and I mean, NOTHING beats the original show.
Top Gear FTW!

Episode 2 was excellent as well!
Bad news for Yumchah, though......AM is officially "no longer cool" now.
Jeez, why can't BBC America show this simultaneously with the Brit release?

is it just me or is their camera work/editing second to none? I mean no other car shows convey the cars as art in motion and take advantage of the beauty of it all? Top Gear and the BBC crews really show this and make it exciting regardless of what the hosts are saying.

I often find myself making mental comments about the good camera work and some of the great shots they get for the show. In the most recent episode, I quite liked the shots of the RS6 parked on the that big dam.
They are filming the show in HD now aren't they? My friend was looking for torrents of it in HD but couldnt find any.

I was hoping that yesterday's episode would be the long awaited GT-R special but indeed it wasn't, in fact it turned out to be the funniest TG episode ever

I wasn't aware you could get an Alfa Romeo for less than £1000, and in decent condition at that (other than the convertible .... 
)
PS...downloaded within a few hours of airing, watched last night. That one was LOL funny...

I loved this episode...
I love how they always smash James' car...
"Hey, that's good right there, what did you do?"
"I shifted into 2nd"
"Oh, that's good, second is usually under rated as a gear"
