Top Gear's new season is on BBC America tonight for those of us who didnt watch it off the internet yet. Time should be 7:00pm Central time. Check local listings.

Just watched it and though I've never seen the episode before, it looks like an old one.

The reasonably priced car is the older one and the fast lap board doesnt have the Gumphert (spelling?) yet on the list. But I could be wrong.

Twas very nice. I liked the Ascari even tho I thought I wouldn't.

And I'd have picked anything but the Porsche.

Very entertaining. The only car show that my wife will ask to watch.

Head to final gear to get the episode listings.

The Chevy Laceti is the current RPC with the Suzuki being the original one, which they only use for race car drivers now. The Suzuki was replaced at the end of the seventh season.

Sounds like it could have been the first episode of the seventh season?

When you click on the link above, don't speed read Series Seven, main #6 where it says David Walliams.
