I hope to god you're joking!!!

james_ls · 06-16-2008, 02:05 PM

I really really really hope this isn't serious.

Maybe like a guest appearance or something...

twastheglow · 06-16-2008, 02:07 PM

I'm sooo ****ing annoyed that someone thought this was a good ****ing idea!!! Adam ****ing Carolla? Why the hell would he be on there?!?! Because when I think of cars, I think of Adam.

Renegade_ · 06-16-2008, 02:09 PM

They'll kick him off the show 2 weeks in after he crashes a carrera GT and an F430. I can't see him being a decent driver.

How the hell are they going to review new interesting cars though? Top gear basically has all the grounds covered so far and anyone that actually likes the show has watched it already and doesn't want to see rehashed material...

Tanner Faust? Ok good choice. But who the hell is the other guy?

This should be pretty dumb. Adam Corolla is a dumb ass.

Tanner Foust has a hot co driver. You should have seen her at the rally.

Yeah, but you have to remember that 90% of America has no idea what TopGear is. Its just us car guys that mostly watch it online that know about it.

oo **** no

drifty240 · 06-16-2008, 02:25 PM

They should change the name to TOP GAY, this is going to be cancelled after 2 episodes...

"fail"!!!!!!!!!!!

Scapegoat · 06-16-2008, 02:28 PM

seriously though.... like anything coming to the states is going to be remotely interesting to hear about on this show. Europe gets all the cool ****...

Vypurr · 06-16-2008, 02:44 PM

Who cares though? The good Top Gear will still be available, and this is the comedy edition.

ITSTOCK · 06-16-2008, 02:44 PM

lol, awesome.

I personally can't wait! It's actually going to be funny watching him crash up $500,000 cars!

I need to bitch then.

This is the second house I've had basic digital through them and no BBC.

PoorMan'sR · 06-16-2008, 02:54 PM

the british humor is what won me over in the first place

twastheglow · 06-16-2008, 02:54 PM

I highly doubt they're going to let Adam drive any expensive cars. I know I sure as hell wouldn't.
