Hopefully the LFA makes another appearance this season and does a dry lap around the track.

thanks for the heads up. I have BBC America so I hope they will be on point with the new season. If not I will catch them online. If 15 is coming out soon then that means season 13 will be on sale in stores very very soon. I already have the DVD box set for season 10,11,and 12.


Top Gear is by far my favorite program ( well the sopranos as well but its not on anymore)

What I'd really like to see is some actual road tests like they used to do. You know, handles well, is/n't comfy, actually useful for things, fast (or not) - preferibly even on cars I might actually consider (read: not purely on the little golf cart ones, I can appreciate those for most-people but I'm never going to buy one). That's not to say I don't want to see any supercars or completely unfair challenges, but I've come to miss the little bits of consumer advice they used to give too.
