101 Cars you Must Drive was[1] a Speed TV program hosted by actor and comedian Alonzo Bodden. The premise of the program is that there will be (at least) 101 cars, and that all 5 cars within a particular episode can be linked to one another in some fashion.
[edit] Description
The first season consisted of 10 half-hour long episodes. Bodden drove each of the five described vehicles, with the exceptions of the Chevrolet Nova, 1951 Aerocar, Chrysler K-Car, Ford Bronco, Chevrolet Corvette Mk IV prototype, and the 1955 Chevrolet Bel-Air.[why?] Although he did not drive one, Bodden did ride in a Renault R5. 50 vehicles were reviewed by Bodden.
[edit] Cancellation
Alonzo Bodden has stated the show has been cancelled by Speed.[1]
