I find most British humor incredibly amusing. I especially enjoy Top Gear and most Monty Python movies, with The Holy Grail being one of my absolute favorite movies of all time.

^^^^ totally agree.

British humor is wonderful... The sarcasm and the innuendo really do it for me. It's just about the only thing I miss about England! I'm discovering a whole new type of "Southern " comedy here in TN You should watch the clip that Clarkson and co did about driving through sone Southern states in bashed up vehicles... It's hilarious.

Back to Clarksons new found love of the GT3. He finally gets it! Agree... The car is spectacular!

... nothing wrong with American humor:

Ha! Very entertaining review. I can't wait til they review the GT3 on the show when it returns.

a couple of years ago in one of his DVD specials he named the 911 Turbo (996 at the time) as the 2nd best car ever made in his list of top 100 cars ever made. The E Type Jag he names number

First post, I love watching Top Gear. Even though Clarkson always makes fun of Porsches its kinda amazing that everytime he drives one he seems to be loving it. Maybe its just the engineering stand point, but he loved the Carrera GT, and the 997 Turbo both in the series and in his DVD. But obviously the new GT3 is something special if it turned Clarksons view around.
