the grand vitara was hilarious, but when i heard the siren for the ls400 i fell out of my chair laughing and my lil brother was like, ur such a dumb ***, but ya the ls did see extremely slow, and i was expecting it to be faster then the astra diesel considering it's a 4.0 liter v8 with rd, but then agian it was only 900 pounds= possible problems, and james may was driving haha

Default Top Gear - Season 11

I know there are lots of threads out there that mention a TG moment in passing ... but I thought it would be neat to have a TG specific thread for the season.

I thought the LS cop car was quite awesome ... up until May couldn't stop the baddy.

& what about Jeremy's two guests? I got a real kick out of them, so rediculous.

YES, The LS cop car was classic. I felt very proud to be an LS-owner watching that episode. I want that paint scheme. Overall a major A+. I am very excited for season 11, it shall give my life new meaning.

Audi R8 did a nice number, can't wait to see what the TDI version can do on just a single gallon.

I hear rumors that during this season each of the 3 guys will be racing a Veyron through somewhere in the Middle East. I cannot wait for that.

Clarkson actually said the designer of the new Hyundai Coupe must have sneezed on a Spaniel sandwich when he was designing the back end...

ROFL... (poor spaniels...)
