Jeremy Clarkson on American cars...and America in general.

Jeremy takes on American cars.  Everything from a Z06 to a Roush Mustang and a '94 Buick Park Avenue.  His ascerbic humor keeps me in stitches, no matter how much he bad mouths the U.S. 

The video is 1 hour and 20 mins. so if you have some time to kill I highly recommend it.  His comments about the big red Viper are classic, "It really is a mother of violence, this.  A big, red, V-10 axe murderer."

Of all the US cars I think the only car that this guy liked was a Rousch Mustang.

I've watched this guy on TV before. I really can't stand him.

I don't know why, but the sound of his voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Bill Webber is the same way.

He's from the UK so that goes without saying.

So he rags on the C6 for being cheapo on the road despite its low price, especialy compared to expensive European stuff like (I forgot what he compared it to), but then goes on to admit the Mustang as e.g. in Bullit is what Mustangs and US cars in general are supposed to be.. "Just the base" to improve on.

Why not tell us how the lotus (used to compare to the Roush) is on normal roads?
Edit: Ohh and old Stig is a former F1 driver why not find a better match.
