best episode by far is when they take the Ferrari F430, Ford GT, and Pagani Zonda out to France. Of the three they compared, i'd personally prefer the Ford GT.

Re: Top Gear Marathon Tonight!
the funniest thing was when clarkson said, "we heard the colonies are making some cars....hahahaha." that was pretty funny. we can't make cars for shit. except maybe a z06.

When they had the prices for their cars, didn't they seem outrageous? They thought the hemi 300 was "cheap" for $50000. The hemi here is like $35000 or something like that.

yes their car prices are far higher than in the US. Plus do nor forget that the 300 has import taxes there.

Also don't forget, the Euro and Pound are more powerful than the US Dollar now.



If you guys didn't know you can download all the TopGear episodes using BitComet, or any torrent utility off the Final Gear website, which is what I've been doing now. They have all the TopGear episodes since the beginning with Tiff Needell and their debut in 1989. Jeremy's hair hasnt changed much since lol.

Here's the website.

Didyou download it or buy it? I cant find where to buy, which I think is because they dont sell them on DVDs.
