As we all know and axiously await, we Yanks are due to get our own version of the world's most popular car-related TV show, Top Gear. Today, History Channel gives us a preview of what to expect from the team, and so far, it looks pretty good.

The video editing will be familiar to anyone that's seen the original U.K.-version, though the tone and demeanor of hosts Adam Ferrara, Tanner Foust and Rutledge Wood are all-American. In this clip, they rip around test tracks and winding roads with a handful of Lamborghinis in tow.

It's a promising start, but we'll have to see how well the whole episode, and season, come off before we'll be hooked.

    Agreed and glad the jury is still out. I've watched Top Gear UK for years and it is my favorite program. I have serious doubts the American hosts can come remotely close to the fun style of Jeremy and the boys. Often when we Yanks "import" a british show or movie our versions are ludicrous at best. I wish the guys luck, BUT we shall see. Meanwhile I'll stick to the BBC

    Looks pretty good. As long as they use their own style of presentation instead of just trying to be like the original (like the Aussie's did) this should be a good show.
    I watch Tanner on Supercar Showdown so I bet he'll be really good. I've never heard of the other two but according to Google Adam is a comedian/actor and Rutledge is a racing analyst for SPEED. Sounds like a good mix to me.

    I just hope that BBC America keeps bringing us the original as well.

    I just hope that BBC America keeps bringing us the original as well. Because I just love the dynamic between them.

    The Morris Minor from the UK had a bull on its badge long before the Lamborghini. Do your research or you will look like idiots.
