So is Fifth Gear the same as the British show Top Gear?? which i catch on the BBC channel on my Direct Tv..

I didn't see "the White helmet" on the driver in that very short clip..

No, they are not the same.. Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear and Tiff Needell from Fifth Gear used to work together hosting Top Gear then i don't know what happen then Tiff separated and created Fifth Gear. Fifth Gear is already airing their 13th season this year which they are going to feature the IS-F.

Many never thought we'd see the day of a Lexus rounding the track with tires squealing and the gears ticking up and down with lots of smoke and a snarly exhaust.

Seems like another very positive review, if a bit short!

was that youtube the only parts of the IS-F or was there more? i thought the beep beep was funny haha. Also the spinning out, it looked like the driver was having a great time tearing up all that rubber!

ive been watching top gear for 3 years online, and i have to say its my fave just because of the crazy antics and races they do. oh and the challenges, those are the best however, i like 5th gear because they do lexus!
