They didn't "review" it on the show yet, but they did feature it on last year's ep where they drove the ZR1, the Caddy STS-V, and the Challenger SRT8. Clarkson was pretty glowing about it actually. It will be interesting to see what they about it in an actual review...

As someone who is not in the habit of downloading torrents (and I suspect that I'm not alone), could you make a recommendation or at least list a couple of your favorites?

The BBC America Top Gear episodes that are edited are about 6 months or so behind the air dates in UK.

Clarkson named the ZR1 "car of the year" last year so I imagine they will like it although they will harp on the interior and will make at least one crack about reliability. I predict they will not comment on leaf springs as they did with the base C6 and yet forgot to mention when they reviewed the Z06.

I use mininova.org

I've never downloaded Top Gear eposides, but from a quick search it appears they have a lot of them

Last year's of the ZR1/CTS-V/Challenger SRT8 was really epic. They really enjoyed the crap out of the CTS-V and ZR1. And Hammond...well he just loved the Challenger no matter what, cause he plunked down 50k for one.

It seems to be a pretty small track and so it doesn't have the advantage that cars like the Ariel Atom or other super compact exotics have, I would expect that it will still place well but won't be able to grab the top spot of the stack. Also it will likely be a rainy day when they test it, they have done this with other cars and unfortunately it is just what they have to work with but still it sucks.
