Top Gear America Special

Anyone watched the The latest Top Gear episode? They made an American special episode. JC drives an 89 Camaro RS he bought for 800$ ; modifies it with a shower, windshield fan and a cow. It was one of the best Top Gear episodes I've watched.

You can download the episode from www.finalgear.com if you've missed it.

I have been watching this show for a few years now and this is easily my favorite episode. Makes me think I just might keep the Z forever. If you read this, go download it now. It's amazing.

It was a great episode. I'#ll have to d/l a torrent to get it on the PC.

I think I'll have to let Jeremy drive the IROC so he can see the difference a bit more power can make.

They slag American cars off most of the time, then that Clarkson @rse buys a GT40, and the hamster trades his mopar for a mustang.
Its become more of a comedy show in recent times.

Yes must agree with R1UK regards Top Gear of late. While I enjoyed the USA episode I have to wonder about the tractors that featured last night. Is it just me or do you get the feeling they are running out of ideas?

I'm downloading now. Will have to wait about 20 hours while it loads up. Can't wait to see it. I must have missed that episode. I love the program.

Just saw the show.............funny as hell. You sure car was an 89? Looked like it had 91 gfx, 91 tail lights and 91 steering wheel. Love the commentary. The cow and alligator parts were just hilarious.
