People need to understand that reviewinga car (and anything else for that matter) is a very subjective thing. Sure, you can try your best at being objective, but in the end all you can say is YOUR opinion. People can agree or they can disagree. That's just how it works.
Right, but that's not bias, that's just an honest opinion. Bias is when you consistantly favor a manufacturer and consistantly ignore negatives, or vice versa.
So, bashing Clarkson because he is bashing American cars is pointless..
I'm not bashing him at all. He makes the show and I love it. Where did I bash him?

Clarkson doesn't just hate American cars, he hates Porsches too.
Right. So if I wanted a fair assessment of a Porsche, I'd prefer if Clarkson didn't test it, Hammond either on that one. That's all I'm saying.
I don't understand the hostility here. Yes, I understand there have been fights about american cars before, but this is not one of them. I'd also love to hear about more Aussie cars too, that Monaro kicked ass. They've done cars that were not available in the UK a number of times, so... what's the harm here?
I'm thinking that most posters here aren't old enough to drive, let alone buy a nice car. There's been absolutely no need for coments like "stupid redneck wankers" and "shut the fuck up". I've made no claims about the quality of cars "produced" in one country or another, because frankly, country is almost irrelevant these days. If you feel the need to vent your own issues at someone else's country, just know that I can come up with plenty of insults towards Australia, or whatever country an insulter comes from.
Some people just wanted to talk about the american supercars. There was no need to turn this into a hostile thread.
