That is very funny. IT is interesting to hear Clarkson has something good to say about Porsche as he usually refers to the 911 as a Volkswagen Beetle.

Love Top Gear.

Have all the episodes leading up to last Sunday's.

Through out the Top Gear 1-16 seasons he has drivin a used 928 and a 944S2.

There is another video of Clarkson driving the 968 but if I remember correctly he didn't like it.

If I recall correctly, Clarkson actually liked the 968 but thought it was way overpriced - pushed it off a cliff as a result

Which is too bad. Great car but just to pricey for the time of cheap asian imports.

Likely your browser Jake.



He hates Porsches. Check out his comparo of a a 360 vs the GT3 RS. He called the Ferarri a scaled down version of God, and the Porsche a jumped up Beetle.

That 944 episode looked and felt more current then the 968 episode. He even looked younger in the 968 video. ODD

Hilarious! I want my launcher in white with blue racing stripes please. Is there going to be a mod to hood mount it?

I think the hood mount thing's already been done. Remember Maxwell Smart's Sunbeam Tiger?

Sometimes Clarkson is full of crap. Remember old Top Gear where he stated that the Ford Probe(!) looked good enough to "snap knicker elastic at fifty paces" Yeah sure, as the lady in question bolts off in the opposite direction! I seen one just recently and it looked completely underwhelming. Their sales bombed in the UK and I'm sure they probably did elsewhere. His obsession with Ferrari's and the "passion" in the construction of them borders on anal. If their so great why does he not own and drive one regularly? He drives a Merc and he also has/had one of th new Ford GT40's, his wife drives a Range Rover amongst other things probably. Don't get me wrong I think he's a great laugh and the show does take a pop at manufacturers just turning out "Euro boxes" etc. But the genius of the progamme is the various things they do with cars and the competitions between the three presenters with their choices. I've roared with laughter at their loony exploits. Remember James May's Triumph Herald with the mast? The trip North thru Veitnam and the sailing ship strapped on the back off the bike! Brilliant!

The Middle East Episode Was Great When They Get Dropped Off In Afghanistan And Have To Make There Way To Bethlehem (Three Wise Men) But My Favourite Episode Is When They Visit The US In Miami To Buy A Cheap Car In A Bad Neighborhood And Travel Some Of The Southern States Of The US. They Got Balls!!
