Jeremy Clarkson in America

[Jean]

Clarkson reminds me of Bill O'Reiley. He's so biased that I don't think he himself believes half the words that come out of his mouth. He needs to realize that America is a different place and our cars were built for different things. We may not be able to outhandle a Ferrari or BMW, but goddamn can we go fast.

I also enjoyed the part where he was talking about the stealth planes and the nuclear carriers because it just reminded me that europeans can't hold a candle to anything else that requires engineering.

:nice:

He admitted that at least to 3 different american cars he test drove. But your short attention span must have kicked in and wandered off after the first minute of the movie.

Yes the US can produce some powerful war machines... and he admits to that as well.... but I dont think you can brag about the US's military much, because I dont see the europeans trying to take over the Middle East by themselves and failing at it.

of course this has to turn into a political debate

You speak as if the rest of the world is retarded. Always pointing out the goods of the U.S. and promptly providing excuses for the bads. And you made it seem that Clarkson (although biased), couldnt recognize the goods in american motoring.

...and you took it way to seriously. Is it that time of the month again? I don't always point out the goods of the US and provide excuses for the bads. In fact, I am very critical of my country and our policies. I am just sick of ignorant foreigners who claim to know more about the US then the people who actually live here. After watching this show, people around the world are gonna think we are a bunch of gun-toting rednecks that drive disposable cars and eat fast food, when in fact this is far from the truth. I also didn't hear Clarkson point out one good thing about American motoring but I heard him go on and on about Land Rover and Jaguar when they are in fact owned by Ford.

Who's taking it seriously now? :p

To those of you who have watched it... can anyone name the song at around 46:30 when Clarkson takes the Jaguar XK on the road to Vegas? I love that guitar intro and I want to hear the rest of the song.
