I think he'll love it apart from the 4 doors!

Wish I could afford his AMG55.

Cheers
Oilman

Apparantly he loves talking about Wankels at dinner parties!

Ahem... Clarkson writes for a tabloid newspaper known, I believe, as 'The Scum'. A colleague handed me a cutting where he reviews the US 350Z and describes it thus: 'As relaxing to drive from place to place as hopping', 'American lard' and 'somewhere in there is a good car but it needs a European to let it out'. So either he was lying, will be lying or doesn't like it.

Clarkson

I think Clarkson has lost a lot of credibility over the last few years. He seems obsessed with finding dafter things to say about cars - top gear is very entertaining but is no longer a "proper" motoring show IMHO. So, I couldn't give a stuff what he thinks !

His ideas on "cool" and "uncool" baffle me.

How can the Ferrari Enzo be "uncool". I bet it's because he can't afford one and even if he could, he wouldn't get one!!:D

Enough said.

You're falling into the trap. It's designed to infuriate and provoke debate. 'Top-Gear' has way too much waffle and far too little cars. A reasonable half hour show stretched too far. On a good day 'Fifth Gear' annihilates it!
