Unfortunately, the best car shows come from the UK, and they give better reviews of the cars as well. Chris Harris of Evo, formerly of Autocar, is among the best, and he gets exclusives from BMW, Porsche, and Ferrari...it was him that got to drive the new M5 before it was revealed...

problem is, it's hardly a car show anymore. it's now pure entertainment, which is fair enough i suppose.

sadly the men have better physiques than the men on Jersey Shore, but the women are about equal in the "let's look slutty" dept.

Your feelings towards people from the United Kingdom are largely determined by how your Father felt about them...My Dad when he was there for World War II got on better with the natives than he did with people in his own barracks...I find that I am the same way...I have no trouble conversing with them or understanding what they are saying.

I hate what they did to the Ferrari FXX test...due to it wearing slicks and not street tires
and of course their blind hatred for anything American

Top Gear is great automotive entertainment. If you want a pure trackday analysis of a car's handling there's more appropriate videos. They don't really hate American cars. Hammond has a thing for old muscle cars. Clarkson loves the Z06 and ZR-1, he even has a Ford GT. Of course they joke using the old automotive stereotypes but that's part of the show.

Love to see one of those douchbags behind the wheel of a 1000hp+ pro street Camaro, or any high hp American V8. Their hate for American cars would run down their leg along with their own shit.

And I love how they use the term "hypercar" to shit on anything American thats really fast. Condescending dicks..

Hypercar is now the term for the higher echelon special Marques and one offs...also reserved for the new Lamborghini Aventador and Ferrari 599xx, GTO...you are looking at cars that do 0-60 in under 3 secs and do well over 200...and cost about half million to over 1 million. That would be the Konigsegg Agera R, Bugatti Veyron, Pagani Huarya, Ferrari FXX, 599XX, Gumpert Apollo.

These are mostly street cars, not drag cars...they perform on the street and track...and used carbonfiber like a reg car uses steel.

Pagani's Zonda Cinque (only 5 made) and over a million dollars, was the road going verdin of the Zonda R, which is 1.5 million, and holds the 'Ring record for production derived cars (6:47)...it was a testbed for the Huarya...

There is the American version of Top Gear, plus many of the top rags do reviews as well...

And Funk Master Flex---speaking of El Dorados, knows his shit. He has cars from SS's, to Cudas, to Shelbys...
