Then fire him and hire someone better. The point I'm getting at is that in order for this show to be great again, the dialogue has to flow from each presenter so smoothly that you cannot tell there were any writers involved at all. Right now it's like watching a bunch of sock puppets, it's very obvious that they're…

This show isn’t going to be any good until they give the presenters more control over the writers. They’ll either figure this out for season 2 or 3, or they'll keep trying this ham fisted approach of shoving new personalities into a formula that's tailor made for three very specific people, none of whom work for the…

It is a nice looking car, but it's turning into something I'd buy because I wanted a nicer Taurus SHO, and not something I'd buy if I wanted a hot performance sedan.

Having driven a Mazda 3 recently I do know that torque converters can be made quite good..... but when you're sitting on something as great as DSG, why would they go back to a torque converter in a performance model? Have they offered a practical explanation or just marketing fluff?

Apparently enough teams are still getting away with it that it's worth the risk.

I think this might be a southeastern thing. When I lived in Alabama I'd see these all the time. Maybe not lifted to that extent, but big wheels and a theme. I still remember a Home Depot Caprice, and a Fantastic 4 Accord. Now that I'm in Texas... either the fad played itself out or it's regional.

SUVs are winning because people are finally realizing that hatchback vehicles are just easier to live with.

Cars, while fun, are more than just toys. Some cars exist to be used as tools, and as a tool, the Camry is among the best.

My 2010 GTI is the same. 110k miles on the OEM pads, with life left in them. I’m not easy on them either.

You’re doing it right.

If possible please follow up on this. I’d like to hear about what happens when they find the truck driver.

Crackpipe. Ugly car with an automatic transmission. If it came with a manual I could have been convinced.

If I had enough money to own this car, zero fucks would be given. I’d enjoy it as intended, knowing that if I wrecked it the car would still be worth a fortune.

I’ve been wondering, for quite a while now, why does racing coverage on TV suck so fucking bad with the proliferation of cheap drones and HD camera equipment?

This should be the best time ever to be a motorsports fan, but instead we still get crappy static angles that fail to show us what's going on.

Can I get one with a side order of kimchi?

My opinion..... instead of trying to mimic the past, they need to take the show back to its roots until the hosts and presenters develop that chemistry that made the prior iteration of Top Gear so great.

Stop it with the jokes and the forced feeling car themed skits, and just talk about cars. Do some presentations,…

I think this was clear to those of us who have watched the US Top Gear. You can’t throw new presenters into a formula that works best because of the chemistry between three specific people and expect it to work. If the new Top Gear is going to be a success the new people need to be able to make it their own show.

You can get a Flyin Miata turbo kit for close to $5k. Still expensive, and doesn’t include install.

That steering wheel’s got to go.

Thanks and sorry. I suck at this game.
