awesome.....these three guys on top gear have been my entertainment for months now, downloading the 2004 season episodes. since i don't have tv, i just stick to Top Gear, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Twin Peaks episodes.

I for one, find Clarkson's porsche-bashing to be refreshingly funny. He obviously prefers big front engined moster HP cars like the DB9 and such (he IS brittish!), but I'm sure if approached off camera he would acknowledge the 911s superior performance and racing pedigree. He sortof uses the 911 as the but of his jokes and as negative as it may be, its only in the fashion of entertainment and it usually makes me realize even moreso the aspects of the 911 that make it such a special car. In the episode where he tries to destroy a 911 by dropping a piano on it, dousing it with acid, and running it into a cement wall, it's so impressive how well the car is built. And the comment he makes about the driver "wearing" the windscreen like a giant spectacle is hilarious and of course true!

they should totally broadcast this show in the states....it would have quite a following....
