        Agreed. The new episode kicked ass, and America finally got a little respect from the trio.

            Wow, probably one of the best episodes of TG I have seen in a loooong time. I was rolling on the floor when James was at the slots with the locals.

            That Challenger SRT8 easily made the best noise out of the group, what an amazing note.

                  Awesome episode. I would own any one of those cars. The Vette was nucking futs. I want one!

                  But owning all three would be perfect. Challenger for a daily, Vette for stupid fast fun and the Caddy for nights out on the town.

                      Episode 3 - http://www.mininova.org/tor/2016297

                      Top Gear, Season 12 Episode 3 of 8

                      Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May try to make an ordinary second-hand car lap the test track as fast as a new, purpose-built sports saloon. James also meets former Formula One driver Mika Hakkinen to discover why Finns are such good drivers. Richard Hammond tests the Veritas sports car and Hollywood actor Mark Wahlberg is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car

                      Enjoy.

                      Mika is the man!

                      And the V8 blender is the win!

                              Just finished watching episode 3. The rally segment with James and Mika was great. I had no idea that getting a Finn drivers license took 3 years. This would explain those impressive driving skills!

                                Man Mark Wahlberg is hilarious in this episode, I was totally stunned that he was the star!

                                Great episode!

                                EDIT: And the Avantime drift was nuts.
