The Stig (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/stig/) makes his return to Top Gear USA on the History Channel (http://www.history.com/shows/top-gear) tonight, though it looks like the circumstances could be better. The upside is that Rutledge Wood, Adam Ferrara and Tanner Foust appear to have built themselves a Road-Warrior-iffic (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gdv5EtZQ6jg) late-1990s Toyota Camry (http://www.autoblog.com/toyota/camry/) complete with an electric fence. The Stig chases down his prey with, naturally, a Panther (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_panther_platform). Seems appropriate.
Looking more closely, it almost seems like a Camry body was bolted atop a truck frame, and you'd expect something like a Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/crown+victoria/) to be the most menacing Panther, but the Stig does a good job being scary in a Lincoln Town Car (http://www.autoblog.com/lincoln/town+car/). The only way to know for sure what went down is to watch tonight.
