This is the first trailer for Top Gear USA coming soon on History Channel.
.

You all know that the long-awaited U.S. version of Top Gear is headed to The History Channel, and now it's time to get your first taste of the show. The first trailer for the show is online, and if it's any indication, Tanner Foust, Rutledge Wood and Adam Ferrara are going to win over viewers, and the program will not stray from the BBC original's successful formula of cool tests and zany challenges.

In fact, one of the new show's challenges is the trailer's centerpiece. In involves the hosts determining the best $1,000 car by putting a trio of them through a punishing "moonshine run" dirt course. The ride selected for the teaser is Ferrara's, the airborne 1976 Cadillac Deville Calais seen above (it could be a '75, but we're pretty certain that's the '76 grille pattern). How does a malaise-era Caddy handle a landing after catching that much air? About as well as you'd imagine - this isn't the make-believe world of '70s cop shows, after all. It's hilarious.

Bottom line: The hosts exude great chemistry and the motoring action is pretty much everything you'd want and expect from a program calling itself Top Gear. Still under wraps, however, is the Stig. The suspense is killing us. This looks like a completely fun show. Hit the jump to see for yourselves. Thanks to Chris for the tip!

Who is the guy that looks like silent bob? And why is he and tanner foust wearing the same shirt?
 
Top Gear season 15 is already on youtube. I saw all 6 episodes already. Fuck Top Gear USA. These guy's are never going to be Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond or James May aka Capt SLOW. I'm sure that the US version is going to be 3 D-Bags doing Redneck shit which NO ONE thinks is cool. Moonshine running?! Seriously? LMAO! Next they're going to say that their Power Lap runs are all going to be 1/4 mile runs and not grip + power runs.

One more thing... how the hell do you replace the Stig? He's a big reason Top Gear UK is the shit!

Exactly, the reason Top Gear is awesome is because of the guy's personality. Some people may like that Tanner Foust is on there but I don't think he's funny nor cool at all. Neither are the other 2 Douchebags. I just don't see it working at all. I see season 1 being their only season. I'm pretty sure their challenges are going to be full of "Redneck cool" type shit since they're going to try relate to Nascar (the biggest car sport in america). Good Luck to them anyway...

I see lots of "college cool" type challenges in their future as well LMAO! I'm telling you it's going to end up looking like the motion picture version of Dragon Ball that failed so bad :(. Plus Top Gear UK has already tested all the cool cars and im sure they have dibs on future top car testing as well. Plus American accents don't sound as British accents lol.

Yep they will be back in November :(... I'm depressed season 15 was sooooo good. I can't believe Tom Cruise and Camron Diaz got the fasted times on the Celeb track.

yea that was awesome. but what was better was how in two consecutive weeks the fastest time was broken three times
 
im really upset it doesnt have adam carolla. he woulda made the show something awesome but im still going to give it a shot
 
I look at it like this, unless you have Discovery HD and can watch WRC this is going to be the best option seeing that speedtv is 93% NASCAR and there are only three shows worth watching minus F1.
 
Yes but that is if you have a box which is just not worth the money for one show. Besides you can buy Top Gear on Itunes and watch it online. All the episodes from series 15 are on streetfire as well.
 
True but there are much better things to watch instead of this F&F version of the best show on TV. I wish they would have used a better challenge then the "Moonshine challenge" to promote their show. This show seems like they just added Foust to try to relate to the younger people. Thats not what makes TopGear must see TV. Another thing, TopGear is the only reason I have the HD Comcast box. Well that and NBA league pass, it's well worth it. Plus "James May Toy Storys" is awesome as well. Although I must admit it's better to watch that show on Youtube since on Youtube it's uncut and on BBC America they cut most of the good parts out for commercials. One more thing, what else can you say about the GT-R, GT3, Enzo, Varon etc etc that hasn't been said by Jeremy, Richard and James already?



One more example, my wife just watched the trailer a minute ago. She's also a huge TopGear fan and even she said. wtf?! They look boring and that challenge is ghey!

They're going to need to show distinctively different characters between the three, like on Top Gear, to get any real watchable respectable show. Currently, from that promo, they just look like 3 of the same people. Doing shit I can do in Corbit any day of the week and trying to act like shits funny when it isn't. I'm glad I get everything worth watching on TV here for free, lol.
