Allright, well just got done with watching it, and it sucks. Its worse than US Top Gear, it really is. Of course they arent copying original Top Gear which is a plus. But the whole thing is just lame.

you can see some elements of top gear they tried to copy...and Salley? an NBA player who sounds like a tree hugging animal loving hippy...asking what kind of gas mileage a rolls royce gets...there were entirely too many cringe inducing moments for me to enjoy it...it seemed kinda forced...well see if its just 1st episode jitters

I thought the token black guy kinda ruined a lot of it. Is there not a black guy that is into cars that does sound like a big dumbass?

Adam carolla or whatever his name is just needs to shut up. its like it was his show and everyone else was just a special guest. He isn't funny. Anthony Bourdain is a better comedian.

It has potential to be an entertaining show. but that isn't to say they don't have a lot of bugs to work out first.

Before episode 1 they had a whole ton of PINKS repeats so I was fired up. Then they got to the "60 Seconds" segment and I turned the channel. Was a sleeper for me.
