Any Top Gear Fans?!
I like both versions, I just like the uk one better. To me the US one seemed like they were all young and cocky (and i'm only 24 lol) and the UK one is just all about fun (until they review an american car 
) That's one reason I watched a few of the US one, cuz I thought they'd have more american cars. but they didn't really .

I have been a fan of the UK version all my life! It is one of the best shows EVER!!!
I have never watched one of the other versions...maybe I should give the US version a try...but it just feels too much like a rip-off..
Some say that his breath smells of Magnesium, and that he's deathly afraid of bells...all we know is...HE'S CALLED THE STIG!

I like both versions. Budget reasons keeps the seasons short. I'm sure if the viewership continues to climb they can have longer seasons.
BBC has their finale next Monday. They had their season shortened by the BBC. They were given less money, so they could do less funny stuff and have a normal season, or they could have less episodes and do all the same stuff. It's obvious what they chose.
They are both good, I watch them all. We NEED more car shows, the only way to get them is to watch what is out there!

I thought one of the cooler challenges on the American version was where they race the Velocirapter against the halo diver. I think a lot of the challenges are creative, they must have some crazy writers

I absolutely LOVE UK Top Gear. One of the best shows on TV. I've been watching it for a few years, but the one expisode that made me fall in love with the show was Series 15 episode 1. IMO, that was/is the funniest episode that they've ever had. And it was all because of a little car called the Reliant Robin, lol. The US Top Gear has a good setup, but the three guys are not nearly as funny or enjoyable to watch. To me, The Car Show with Adam Carolla should have been called US Top Gear. It's a very good show and is almost on par with UK Top Gear.
"Some say that the outline of his left nipple is exactly the same shape as the Nürburgring, and that if you give him a really important job to do, he'll skive off and play croquet... all we know is, he's called the Stig."
