Cool cars are easy to do, being entertaining isn't. Will I still watch? Yeah, but know that it will not stack up to the OG show.

I will say at first I didn't like it at all compared to the BBC version. Then I remembered it's the first episode. They're not going to be able to do all of the cool witty inside-joke stuff that the other one has for a while. The comedy in the original show didn't really shine for a couple seasons IMO.
Maybe the American one will get there in time, but I don't think they'll ever have the British "charm". I'm definitely liking the celebrity part more. Finally more than one person I know per season.
