I loved the VW Commercial segment - one of their best in a while.

I didn't realize the F1 had 3 seats, it's a practical family car!

it's really only sized for 1 normal adult male, and 2 supermodels, one on each side.

they thought of everything when designing the car..

I have sat in Jay's F1 car. I was allowed to turn the key, but not allowed to drive it. We made vroom vroom noises

AMAZING car.

So are 3-seaters allowed in SM?
Or is that a SSM car?

Jay brought the F1 to one of our Mopar car shows. He stopped just outside the park and picked up two cute girls walking and sat them in the jump seats so he could make "an entrance". He's really a cool down to earth guys that loves just hanging out and talking cars.

BTW-Jay is pretty tall and Jeremy looked like he towered over him.... how the heck tall is Clarkson?

Could Hammond really be of "normal" height and not really a midget?

Last year on a Friday evening coming home from work on the dreaded I-405 Fwy south from the I-101 Fwy, I was stuck in traffic, and decided to get off on the Mulholland Hwy exit. In my rear-view mirror was a black McLaren F1 car. I pulled into the right lane of the off-ramp, and the F1 pulled to my left, and we perfectly (with the traffic) were next to each other. I rolled down my windows, checked out the car and was about to say to the drive "Nice McLaren F1 car" when the driver rolled his windows down and said "Nice M3!" Who was the driver?? Mr. Jay Leno himself. We chit-chatted about the annoying traffic on the 405, and then we parted ways. He truly is a car guy for sure.

Clarkson - 6' 5"
May - 5' 11.5"
Hammond - 5' 7"

Leno - 5' 11"

Leno is only 5'11"? Wow, he comes across taller in person.
Must be high heels and big hair....

The man is a tree, honestly I don't even know how he gets into some of the cars he manages to get into.



I'm about 5' 9"-5' 10"

Wow - cool pic Mike. What was he like to talk to?

My sister had dinner with Richard Hammond a few years ago. She was totally in love and wanted to have his babies, but alas, he was already married. She said he was very cool.

Not too surprising.
