"Stop, stop, stop, stop..... What you actually want, I'm afraid, is this, ....the Daihatsu...660cc of flexi-micro Japanese sinew..."
ROTFL. :laugh:

That was hilarious. Made me blurt out a laugh in the middle of work. :laugh:

clarkson is a douchebag.........that is all. how does he say that they build better muscle cars....what a dumbass........the little dude is the only one with some sense

LOL @ little dude aka Richard Hammond

It's the Mazda 6 MPS. All of the hot Mazdas over there get the MPS badge...I'm not sure why, although I suspect it may partly be because "speed" is a bad word throughout so much of Britain.

I *love* the ST220.

Yep, MPS over there...I love the AWD of this thing, but even still, my Contour handled much better than my Speed.

EDIT: But after watching the second clip...the MS6 took it by 3 seconds. Trust me when I say it's the power, not the handling

but he says the same thing about every American car.....doesn't matter how good it is he find something wrong and blow it way out of perportion . Like when he reviewed the CTS-V. They race dit against an S4 with a pro driving the S4 and Clarkson is the caddy. The caddy won. Still he said the car was cheap and it was 2 big?....it was not much bigger than the S4 and still beat it. i mean he finds the smallest thing possible to make it look bad.

I agree but I find it funny to look at the car he owns (one of them). What car was it that he fell in love with and bought for himself? 911 GT? no. SLR? no. Zonda? no. It was a Ford GT, good choice too.

Dont forget the thing broke down so many times he had to get another one.

Don't forget that no matter HOW much he griped about it breaking ALL the time; he STILL got ANOTHER one and not a European car after the debacle.

He's being hypocritic in this instance. and justifiably so.

Because of aftermarket installed parts.

Because of aftermarket installed parts.

I thought it was dealer installed parts.

I thought it was dealer installed parts.

IIRC, it was aftermarket stuff installed by the dealer. Alarm, nav, something else...and then bookayashah, the GT starts having psycho electrical issues.
