Can an Apache helicopter get missile lock on a sports car? Jeremy Clarkson finds out as the Lotus Exige takes to the Top Gear track; Richard Hammond goes off road with the Bowler Wildcat; James May is on a Sicilian race track with a Maserati Quattroporte.
would be nice if they start regularly broadcasting it so I don't have to watch clips on the 'net

Ahh...I love me some top gear. The Quattraport├® makes that burning desire to move to Italy oh some much stronger. But then again there is the CLS55 and M5/6 of Germany...guhhh...tough choices.
