Haven't been any amazing episodes this season... but it wasn't any better/worse then the rest imo.

+1 - nothing has really stood out so far - but even on their absolute worst day - the UK crew are way better than TG Oz (dunno if its my bias/preferance for British humour, but there you go.)

EDIT: havent seen the latest one yet - waiting to click over to the new month - over quota

Havent you guys heard that BBC has cut down on funding for Top Gear? hence they are trying to do things a bit more cheaply..but it is still very entertaining. I wish they would do a Top Gear movie and release it at the cinema......with heaps of hot british chicks ....hahaha

Didn't know that turns out you're right. Actually saddened by that

So does this mean that finally they can get back to the business of reviewing cars like when they 1st started out, rather than filling the show with BS like building car space shuttles and travelling around the World to race trains and boats and going to hidden forests to pick up exotic mushrooms and using a Veyron to bring it back home and all that other nonsense that's obviously costing them a fortune to do...

Love to see how this all pans out...

lol probably...but hey atleast they arent a typical boring car show...they are entertaining

So let's see, BBC slashing the budget and car manufacturers, if not collapsing all together due to tens of billions annual losses, put their hot models and prototypes on ice (or in the back shed, for good) while us, the car industry's consumers and fans of the show, have less and less money to spend on motoring... This is not going to end well...

Bloody GFC!

hope not. One of my favourite ever episodes was when JC drove the Merc SLR McLaren to Norway while the other two went via boat. Epic
