Very entertaining car special by Jeremy Clarkson:

It's Clarkson, so dont expect facts or real reasoning. Just opinions backed up by staged events. What can I say though, he shoots a Prius up with a 50 Caliber.

He'd rather look at the back of a baboon than the Toyota Prius....!!! :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Oddly enough he's referring to the previous generation NHW11 Prius and not the current NHW20 which I consider kind of stylish. Not pretty exactly but at least it's not another Aztek or for that matter a Tribeca. I just think he wanted to trash the Prius which is sort of like walking into the room and picking a fight with the smallest guy you can find. The Prius isn't supposted to be fun on a visceral level but I think I could like it for the geek factor and by all accounts it's a great around town car. One does wish that VW would get their ass in gear and put the EcoRacer into production though.

The bit where they blow up a Harley is priceless. Just what I've wanted to do for years. Those things are offensive on so many levels.

And tell me he's wrong about the Range Rover being ten times better than the Escalade and H2. At one time you could claim the Rover is overpriced but the way GM has been raping people on the prices of their stuff which is just tarted up farm truck chassis blows that argument right out of the water. My personal choice if I somehow lost my mind and bought an SUV would be the Toureg with the v10 diesel. The soul of the Cayenne with a TDI heart.
