'Top Gear' to move to the US?

Top Gear producers are apparently in talks to make a US version of the show.

The Sun reports that such a show would follow the same format as the current BBC 2 broadcast, but with more of a focus on American made cars.

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May would all present the US version, while The Stig would continue in his current role.

A BBC spokeswoman confirmed that the show was in development, but a deal had not yet been finalised.

"BBC Worldwide has had exploratory conversations with the US networks to bring a local version of Top Gear to the US, but there is not yet a deal on the table," she said.
