Top Gear has a great review of the Shelby and some fun scenes of a '67 390 GT

You hear NBC is trying to bring Top gear to the states? Jay Leno is pleading with them not to..and I hear the car company wont take the "frank" discussions lightly. :smile:

They are trying to make a successful cross atlantic hit like Office Space was.

Leno is worried that the American version won't keep the quirkiness and the edge that the British version has. I think he may have a valid point. We could easily water it down so badly it'll drown itself it mediocrity.
