You can say what you want about Adam Carolla - and there have been a lot of unflattering remarks about the controversial comedian and television personality - but one thing you can't take away is the fact that the man knows his cars.

So even if the man is as polarizing a minor celebrity as you'll ever meet, there's still a great deal of interest within the auto circle surrounding his latest venture, the new TV car show called, well, "The Car Show". It's a different take on the wide world of automobiles and something that offers a fresh perspective from Top Gear->ke1860, straight from the minds and mouths of Carolla and his two co-hosts, Matt Farah, and Pulitzer Prize-winning Wall Street Journal auto journalist Dan Neil. It seems rather fitting for Carolla to be comparing his latest venture with Top Gear USA considering the comedian was one of the original hosts of Top Gear before it was dropped from NBC and picked up by the History Channel. They say when one door closes, another one opens. Guess "The Car Show" was behind door number two.

So, if you find Top Gear USA->ke3704 a little on the blah-side, then we strongly encourage to check out The Car Show. It debuts on Speed on July 13, which is about three weeks away.
