Haha, yeah Jeremy doesn't like us, the joke in the article was that after the US run (the crappy camaro/caddy/etc episode) when they almost were killed in the South kinda turned him off for good, the only thing he likes is the "Zed 0 6"

(new corvette z06)

They had edited versions here a couple of years ago. I think it was on Discovery.

I liked watching the Evo FQ400 beat the Murcielago on the track.

That wasn't Clarkson. And they did hate it, but the horsepower rating wasn't the reason.

Yeah I watch segments from that show all the time on Youtube, its freaking awesome.

He does hate on American cars a lot but he in fact owns a Ford GT, which he absolutely loves. And they were pretty stupid to pull that shit in the south and expect not to get screwed with (and/or killed).

Yeah apparently they were told that the only thing ford upgraded was the motor. They completely missed the brakes, suspension, and transmission. Not to mention the aero bits.
