i watched the first episode of the new season of Top Gear last night. It's great to have BBC America back. I thought the feista st was interesting, hammond said 179hp while Ford's webiste claims 197hp.

I forgot TG was back until this week. I watched both new episodes on Monday.

The Fiesta ST is sweet. I find it interesting that they are raving about it, kinda makes me want to go test drive one.

well they raved about it compared to the competition they had, there's really no competition state side. It's only downside to me is the price. It's not that much less than a MS3 or focus ST although the focus can get pricey with options added.

True, but the torque # was the same. I found that kinda odd

Season 20 has been epic so far. The season opener was the best episode in the entire series so far, in my opinion.

1 perk of a DVR is that i have it set to record every Top Gear that plays, its smart enough to save the episode # and then not record that number again, im up to 70 some episodes lol, its great having that many knowing if nothing is on TV, go to top gear haha

They may have been quoted the "steady state" specs. The Fiesta ST has a weird little feature that cuts power after (I think) 20 sec of WOT. It's probably an engine-saving measure. I caught that episode Monday night. Because I don't want a Fiesta ST enough already...

Pittsburgh is getting ****** by this storm... my old apt is flooded... basement is completely submerged and water is above the neighbors cars hood... Phen can attest for that to happen, the creek had to rise a solid 12+'

The versions on BBC America are cut down 15 minutes to fit within an hour with commercials. UK BBC airs TG with no commercials. Plus, if you DL it you get it with less bleeps.

Yea, a friend in Pittsburgh said it took him over an hour longer to get to work with all the closed roads.

That makes sense
