I will move it to off-topic though. -------------------- |

Budget issues? They did get the GT-R for 2 episodes... lol, the bbc is almost unlimited in its wealth. The standard length of a series (season) in the UK is 6 weeks. Although i did think Top Gear had more episodes in a season.... ![]() -------------------- |

I'm bumping this so that a new thread doesn't have to be created.
Anybody see the last episode? They tested the LF-A and used some comic-book styling. Annoyed me to no end. Now I'm sad the series is over. -------------------- |

Yeah it sounds great, like an F1 car. Some styling cues I don't particularly like but the price is crazy. I'd rather have a Ferrari.
Can't wait for the next series. -------------------- |

Just this series, there are usually 2 series per year. This one started mid-November, and there were 7 episodes. Usually they start late May, early June and end in August/Sept then start again in Nov and last til nowish. Some series have 10 episodes, some 9, 8, 7. IDK how they figure it all out.

Wow, that's short. Then again, I think 13 only has 7 episodes as well.

Anybody see last nights episode? Why on Earth did they compare a Mercedes AMG with a Camaro. Two completely different auto segments, two completely different worlds. Sometimes I just don't understand why they do things.

And that's where the similarity stops. I just hate the idea of comparing a Mercedes, and obviously upper-class car, with an AMG badge, against an American muscle car. German luxury is the echelon of automobiles.Even Clarkson loses the idea of the Camaro. It's a MUSCLE car, not an elegant saloon. It's supposed to be in your face, brash, and powerful.

I just watched ep 3. I was hoping for an epic challenge where they travel to some far off country and do something crazy. The north pole and vietnam episodes were my faves.

Best Top Gear Ever tonight......The new Bugatti Veyron blasts the new top speed for a production car by alot of MPH. They get Tom Cruise & Cameron Diaz in the reasonably priced car and a good film about Ayrton Senna...brilliant.

you can torrent the eps through finalgear.com. They usually have it in 720p and 1080i. Sunday was the last episode for the season until October or November. Supposedly one of the reasons for the lack of episodes was due to budget and that there's talks about Richard and James not returning/renewing their contracts. *shrug*
