Video: Top Gear caught filming in NY with SLS AMG, 458 Italia and 911 GT3 RS

Autoblog tells us ..."The Top Gear trio was recently spotted filming in New York City. We already knew they were filming here in the States, as well as the cars they were driving. This time, someone has recorded footage as Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond maneuver the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, Ferrari 458 Italia and Porsche 911 GT3 RS out onto the streets of the Big Apple."

awesome spot. it looks like a terrible location to test 3 high performance cars with very low ground clearance. that particular street looks a better choice for off-road truck testing.lol

I like that Clarkson just drives with the door up to help him see. Looks like they couldn't have chosen a worse spot.

Why were they in this part of the NY? I don't get it.. this is not the environment for these cars. Just curious, I wonder if one of them scratches the car if they have to pull any money out of their pocket to get them fixed. Haha.

Very surprised that they don't of production crew members hauling around little ramps for them. It would probably be cheaper to do that than replace of repaint anything.
