SpaceGhost Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Yep what a misleading pile of filth. Claiming you are driving the V8 when you are in fact driving the V6 is (pardon the pun) Horseshit! Single exhaust and engine note tells it all.... I just lost a lot of respect for that show.

SpaceGhost Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 That fucker is so Biased against American cars it is fucking ridiculous. This just takes it to a whole new level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPFSTheFett Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Doesn't hate all american cars, he loved the new Z06 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tztm9dLyY4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Loved? he made fun of the rear plastic bumper and all the plastic in the interior. As if all EU cars are made of Carbon Fiber, leather, and metal in the interior. I didn't click your link, I am going off the episode that I saw him with the Zo6.

boosted98gst Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 he also had a list of bad stuff to say about the new z06 , he liked the performance tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHaze Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 He also bought a Ford GT. Though, he always made fun of it. I really don't understand how he could have made the mistake between a V6 and a V8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Because it wasn't a mistake, he likes to slander American cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHaze Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Of course, he's British. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 He also bought a Ford GT. Though, he always made fun of it. I really don't understand how he could have made the mistake between a V6 and a V8. He also sold shortly there after due to reoccurring problems he had with the car.

SpaceGhost Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 To be fair the GT might shave what a second off of that time? But to be really fair, a Ferrari would not go around it significantly faster either... Maybe a a couple of seconds faster. Again it is a well thought out segment to slander an American car.

Patrick Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 He's the type who will slander everyone and anything to make a buck/get a look, his car reviews can be funny, but I thought everyone else on the show liked American cars, but just that muscle cars can't handle or stop well in stock form (which I agree with). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTLAd_QzWZU The jabs can be a little much...wonder if they'll do that in the American version that's going to come out "Rover? Ha." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha." That's how I think of them. Hammond and May seem to like many American cars while Clarkson is supposed to have this European-dominance personality. It's funny but sometimes it's just stupid and annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty2Hotty Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Top Gear's fucking stuck up on Euro cars. If it's not European, then of course it's trash in their eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fist302 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Top gears a very fun show to watch although the euro bias is pretty bad. The v6 mustang example is just unacceptable though they litearly say its a v8 gt and then switch it to the v6, thats just stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
