He doesn't hate american cars. He wants the Cadillac 16 to go into production. He owns a Ford GT.

I think JC just wants american cars to be better.

I recall watching a couple episodes of Motorworld where he goes to Detroit and Texas, Clarkson loves the big block V8 engines and the style and coolness factor (at least for muscle cars and hot rods), but criticized the cushy ride and handling, and the cheesy plasticy interiors on Cadillacs, Lincolns, etc.

You guys are forgetting that Clarkson doesn't like cars of poor quality . . . PERIOD!
I'm sure you've seen him bashing his own country's Rovers. Bad cars need bad reports. Otherwise, the car companies will never take notice. Clarkson is the boldest and loudest car journalist I've ever come across. I absolutely love his clear and simple mentality.

I really hope that they know Americans are watching their show. I don't think they'll stop their constant criticisms of Americans though. They have every right to say what they say.

in my opinion the 65-70 american cars were some of the sexiest cars ever produced... but before and after that images/smilies/oops.gif images/smilies/biggrin.gif

as for the new charger... 4 doors? dodge just don't get it.
