That's quite interesting. They seem a relatively civilised lot - we should introduce ourselves. But I expect they'd get all funny and accuse us of being "limey fags"...

There must be a large website that has a layout just the same as PH and covers all makes of cars.Maybe it has sections for all parts of the world, including a Brit forum page.

www.6speedonline.com is one of the bigger American forums that I know of.

If you REALLY want to be scared, go to the Politics and Religion section of FerrariChat... some of the comments made by the americans on there are worrying to say the least.

UK Section is great though

Well Honest John has a forum (a bloke at work spends his lunchtimes there) but you wouldn't want to go there. You run a high risk of slipping into a coma

It seems all our forums are at least marque specific, my favorite US forum would be S14.com, all E30 M3 all the time....but if you don't have an M3 not much use.

Roadfly is also OK but mostly to browse the cars for sale.

With PH available here in the States without having to click much harder than from the UK I wouldn't see the point in something similar US based.

As a big user of s14.net,I'd have to agree Magnus has provided a fantastic forum, and all at his own cost with no ads at all.
I was more looking for the Pie & Piston version in the US. Just to see what day to day chat is and get the American take on things that happen locally , or such as the London bombings.
