Your favorite automotive themed tv show.

I wondering, and hopefully the group here doesn't mind giving me your opinions, what you consider to be the best automotive themed tv show. Examples: Two Guys Garage, Sports Car Revolution, Dream Car Garage, etc... Thanks.

F1 Racing. The speed coverage, not the NBC coverage.

Top Gear with Fifth Gear running a close second (Vicki is hard to beat).

I thought Sports Car Revolution was going to be good, the idea sounded good, but the show didn't impress me. The "bad boy", "preppy boy", and "bimbo" didn't do it for me.

Then for fiction/drama stuff, I guess I'd have to go with "Dukes of Hazzard" over "Knight Rider."

Thanks for your answers. This is pretty much what I expected. I would say Top Gear as well. I work in tv production, and am seeing a shift in programming towards the Sports Car Revolution type of shows. Something I'm not entirely thrilled with.

Agreed, even with the de Cadenet guy, or whatever his name is, that is the best. Where do you go to sign up to be the guy who gets to hammer on the Lord of Cummerbun's D Type jag anyway?

Do some research on Alain de Cadenet, and you might be impressed. I certainly am.

I'm surprised no one said Unique Whips. Just kidding.

It's Fifth Gear then Top Gear for me.
