Jerry Seinfeld Gets a Little Help From His Friends in New Internet Car Series



Comedian Jerry Seinfeld, a "car guy" with a special place in his heart for all things Porsche, will soon be starring in a direct-to-web car series called Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.  The series is set to launch July 19th via it's own internet site, and also the digital provider Crackle (including Crackle's YouTube channel).

Based on the trailer, some of the comedian's friends who will be featured riding shotgun include Ricky Gervais, Alec Baldwin, Michael Richards, Colin Quinn and Seinfeld co-creator Larry David.

As anyone who is a fan of  Jay Leno's Garage knows, Seinfeld is not the first comedian with an affinity for cars to play to the internet masses.  Each episode in the Jay Leno series features his love of and opinions on cars.  Without much to go on besides the trailer, it appears, unlike Jay Leno's Garage, Seinfeld's series will be bringing the funny...hence the comedians. All the beautiful classic cars paraded through the trailer for this new web series is enough to have us wanting to see more.

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee launches at 9pm EDT July 19th.  You can take a test drive of the new series below.
