It seemed to come straight from the Top Gear mold. I was actually hoping they might do something a little different, but I guess they have a formula that works.

Yes. And the hyper cars. And the M2.

I am behind in the show, but I saw a pretty funny episode with the Mustang GT and the Focus RS. There were some interesting things that happened performance and opinion wise. If I remember correctly, the Mustang won in the Quarter, but not until the end and not by much, but it won. I think the RS beat the GT on the track by a second.

I actually haven't been watching. It turns out I prefer my Youtube programming.

That particular comparison might be worth watching.

I enjoyed the American's assessment of the mustang GT. It included the phrase "get shit and git," which still has me scratching my head.

I have lived in the south for over 11 years (only 4 in a place where people might use such a phrase) and I still had to consult Urban Dictionary. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.p ... shit-n-get

Apparently Top Gear is great again...

I might need to check this out again. I will say there were a few good Grand Tour episodes this season, the Jag one and the last episode which was a classic challenge were great.
