Yeah I'd like to know so I can set a DVR or something. I'm not always at home so I don't want to miss this. Even if you warn us at a later time, it'd be great to know as you can still hold it back till a week or so before it's appearance.

That's why I like the STIG's comments, he's the only thing that I watched the damn show for. F- Top Gear. I never liked their witty remarks, or their crude language towards anything non-european. Their jerks to me, lame overpaid fat asses who don't appreciate what they get to do. If I got paid to drive cars I would have a blast. The only thing I would do is comment on what the performance is compared to others, or how it felt. They aren't enthusiasts. Far from it, and I'd prefer the LFA go somewhere it's appreciated, not looked down on because it came from Japan.

I wish they had used a metallic blue or red color. I have "Battle of the supercars" on my DVR with the yellow LFA and even in 1080i high-def, it does not look nearly as striking as blue or red.
Too bad, the TopGear USA episode will not air till next fall when the second season begins.

Scott Pruett tweeted about him watching LFA at Infineon raceway for TopGear USA taping. American Stig will also be running a hotlap.
Too bad it won't air till November or December of 2011 since the season 2 does not start till late fall.

Our buddies at VIP Auto Salon ust posted a new time lapse video of how they wrapped #032 in yellow vinyl. The process took 18 grueling hours from start to finish. All the hard work paid off in time for the Top Gear USA episode filmed at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma!
