Not bad, they shoulda used the manual evo in the drag though. Both the beemer and the evo are great cars though

I'm just watching it now that i've finished work. It is definitely an upgrade on the crap I was forced to watch last season (only watched 3 or 4 episodes) Charlie Cox was a w*nker and I think they needed someone like James Morrison to add some knowledge to the car scene and much needed comedy relief (not being a tosser like the other two) New segments and skits (trying to replicate the lancer ad chucking stuff out the window onto a trampoline and into the boot), and some real car reviews (evo x mr and bmw 135i). Will have to wait and see the next few weeks before i can say anything else !!!

What retard lines up for a drag race with the traction control on!!!!!
If he had it off then he could have used the evo's launch control. That would have made the drag a little more interesting.
Overall better than last season but they are still trying to hard to replicate the banter and dynamic of Clarkson and the boys

I still prefer the British version myself
Season one here was ordinary
I hope Season two improves
Clarkson and co seem to interact quite well.........

I think they need better challenges - the whole 1500 dollars to buy something and go through the outback....or something else like that - even if they do a few rip offs of what has been done on TG Britain - hell, they're trying to be like them as it is....why not try some of the same things as Jezza, May and Hamster!

I thought so too.....He is hated by many in the cars community, but he is a down to earth guy, who is entertaining but not over doing it!! Kinda the James May type. He would be alright as a host, instead of the two side kick twits.

Thought it was a vast improvement over season one. The Lambo Vs Jet Ski was aweful though. The remake of the sportsback ad was funny.
Here is a challenge. The Ultimate multi purpose vehicle for under $15k.
In fact lets open this up to Club CJ. Best multi purpose car for $15k in Australia??????? (Multi purpose can be everything from load carrier, to comfort, to speed, handling etc etc)

TGA is an ok filler until new eps of original TG come back.
Glad to see the old host gone, made me cringe when was interviewing the celebs, no charisma at all.
Though I liked James Morrison I dont know if he will be the main host they will use, Steve was doing most of the presenting last night.
Anyway, think the show wont ever hold a candle up to the original, but looks like an improvement from season 1.
