Cool, and I love Top Gear.. even if they don't like our cars... Richard Hammond liked the Camaro though, but I'm not sure that helps.

I still respect some of the points of the other review, but this one seemed a lot more objective. This review turned out a lot better, and had less of an entertainment value to it. It was a bit less fun to me, but I value what I considered objective opinions.

Notice the PERMA-GRIN.

Nice to see the car put to test that way, I think he was right on the money with his review.

I think they did a good job w/ the review. Top Gear was fun, but the car they compared it to wasn't fair.

Great example of how the European market gets EVERYTHING
a year before us at least...Most electronics 2-3 years..

Ah just noticed you are in Canada. I was going to say uhhh Europe usually gets electronics after the USA.

Much better than the "look how pretty it is, slide around some corners, now how does this $85k Mercedes compare" pile of ridiculous that Top Gear did. These guys actually spent more than 5 seconds talking about the car that was nominally the subject of the review....

Looks like he was having some fun AND he was doing it rather well, sliding it around that is.
