The Wall!

[scathing]

Clarkson loves the car, but he'll still say its uncool. It has the "wrong" badge for the price, and its too technical and anemic at around-town speeds, and not about "soul" or some other crap.

There's plenty of cars he likes and respects and wants, but aren't cool.

I reckon it'll end up un-cool.

Mainly because unlike Jeremy's beloved Fezzas it lacks a certain presence and theatre. And as others have said previously, you'd be constantly explaining why it looks like it does, why it is still so quick despite being so heavy, how fast it is in launch control mode, how fast the 'box shifts, and probably most importantly why it's reported to lap the Nurburgring in 7:29 yet you just got blown off by a well driven something something Gti through the twisties.

On the R35 at Fuji, it was great to hear Jeremy C saying something like "with all this technology you would expect it to feel numb but it doesn't, it feels mechanical... it feels bloody fantastic"

just to add to that, i think he added the words like Analogue and Human

So many good quotes from that test that if he said uncool, that would be uncool!

Not a new car but a new yard stick

Analalogue

Human

A Million HP (TWICE)

Corners like electricity

When is the wall part being aired?

...and i agree on the Datsun reference being over done.

This car is Subzero.

For the price you pay and the performance you get.

[Marlin]

[Angus Smart]

it'll probably wind up early in s12, which supposedly isn't far off (UK Autumn), just a few months boys, be patient.

Ahh so the seasons dont usually last too long anyway

[baron25]

No, recently when they've had a short season, it's followed by another later that year. And in the last ep JC mentions a few times being back in Autumn.

Uncool - if it isn't made in the EEC, its uncool, and he has that 'british is best' streak that he has to struggle against as well, so he thinks he's being more worldly by accepting EEC products.

One thing I noticed - He thought the Monaro/GTO/Vauxhall was good stuff before, now he is tending to rubbish it, so someone from Oz must have dissed him.
