I figure I could sell one kidney, one testicle, half my liver, and maybe a cornea in order to buy one and still be able to drive it.

It's on BBC America, although they usually take a few months before they air it (also iTunes store & CastTV.com). There was a rumor a while back that Speed channel or NBC was doing an US version, but I'm not sure if anything materialized. I don't think it would be as good as the UK version, but I would still watch it.

Saw a couple 458s close up in Monaco a few months back along with a Bugatti and other disgustingly awesome cars. The 458 is just beautiful, I'd happily give my left nut for one.

Problem would be the quarterly body parts donation needed for oil, brakes and other maintenance - pretty soon it would be hard to drive!

I'm all for the engineering and performance that went into making the car, but am i the only one to think that's the ugliest Ferrari to date, unlike what Jeremy presented. F40 was amazing because its spine shattering (Ferrari body on an F1 chassis)! The F430 was amazing as was the Testarossa for its time!

I remember when the F430 came out, most were questioning the design as a "step back" from the fluid shape of the F360. Seems they aggravated the edges a bit more in the F458. Not sure I like it as well, but I'm sure it'll grow on me.

I remember when I was younger, I lusted after the Diablos and Murcielagos. Now, after seeing the 599 in person, that has become my new obsession car.
