I'm on my own in liking how the Panamera looks. Wonderfully imposing and....Porsche-y images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Looking forward to the episode, should live up to my high expectations. This series has been good so far images/smilies/smile.gif

That's quite a guest list.
My thoughts exactly. They have got fantastic guests this series!!

Jay Leno is in England all week, and Usain Bolt is the guest in the Resonably Priced Car? I'm sorry, he's a fabulous runner, I watched him last summer. But come on! The biggest American car nut in England when Top Gear is actually airing, and they don't get together on it? For shame!!!

I don't want to see Jay on Top Gear because he was a TV host. I want to see him because I want to understand his love of cars better. Jeremy would ask him the right questions, and it would be awesome. I really hope they do something where they film it this week for airing on a later show a la Simon Cowell.

I agree, and he'd be pretty funny too!

Well, there's 7 episodes in this series, or so I gather, so there are 3 more shows where they can actually squeeze him in for a surprise. images/smilies/smile.gif

Remember they don't have to film the SIARPC bit that week. They could just record two interviews this week and broadcast the second a few weeks later. They've done it in the past (the one where Jeremy points out the Poppy disappearing).

Good news for all of you wanting Jay Leno as the SIARPC. Jalopnik says that a reliable source told them that he's been spotted filming for Top Gear's SIARPC section.
