Got to see Jeremy and James in person at a Top Gear Live show here a couple of weekends ago.
The Aus version is poor as well. Can't beat the combo of the 3 UK guys.

I freaking love Top Gear. I love it when they come to the US for bits. -- ME2 On Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 12:10 AM, Rankin, James R <[email protected]> wrote: You watch Top Gear?

In some cars, what used to be "the radio" is actually morphed into a general-purpose interface for all sorts of things. The sales VP at $WORK has an Audi which is almost more computer than it is car. The same 5 inch LCD in the dash accesses music, navigation, cell phone, climate controls, seat positions, driving preferences, engine maintenance, etc., etc. Mark my words, the day isn't far off where we're going to have to reboot our cars.
