Top Gear has become one of my favorite shows and I'm not into cars either. Their challenges are incredibly entertaining. The transformation of cars into boats and the create a new police car challenges were hilarious.

You can get the UK version through iTunes here in the states these days - the current series ROCKS :D

(the first episode where they're racing the different vintage vehicles and hammy is on the motorbike is fantastic imho :D)

I've been a fan of Top Gear for a few years now. That show is absolutely hilarious, and some of the races and challenges they do are a riot. Definitely worth checking out, even if you're not a car guy.

For those of you with Comcast, recent episodes are usually available via Comcast On Demand as well. That's how I usually watch them.

Edit: For the uninitiated, here are a few of the challenges/races/odd things these guys have done, just to give you an idea just how bonkers they really are:

Drove to the north pole in a race against a dogsled team.
Rode from the southern part of Vietnam to the northern part, on mopeds & motorcycles.
Drove across the spine of Africa in old road-cars
Raced a Mercedes with a new sat nav system against a carrier pigeon.
Played 5-on-5 soccer, with cars and a giant soccer ball.
Raced a Bugatti Veyron against a EuroFighter.The list goes on and on from there, those are just a few of my personal favorites. These guys are the MythBusters of the automotive world.
