While I do have respect for the Corvette Z06 and few select American cars...I fear the show may turn into 44 minutes of fluff advertising for GM, Ford and Chrylser domestics. The unique charm will be gone...unless they are able to find three charismatic driver/presenters.

I think each presenter should have a bias...ie. a guy who only likes American cars, another guy who likes Japanese/Asian imports and another bloke that only likes European cars. That way when they do comparison tests it will be a bit more evenhanded.

Then they could do a "Best used sports car for $5,000"...the American guy would bring a Mustang, the Asian guy will bring beater Nissan, the European guy would bring a beater Porsche or BMW. That would be fun to watch.
tbh, if there has to be a celebrity, Jay Leno would probably be my first pick. I know, ugh.
