Clarkson is a European anything is the best always, Japanese is second best, and American cars are always crap!! This is the same goof that was finding flaws in the C6 Z06 that is twice the car a FQ360 is.

I don't mind the not data driven description of the car, but it reminds me too much of those overdone streetracing threads ex."As the car growled and surged forward I began to gain ground quickly. Another quick shift as the engine revved towards the 8k limit blah blah blah"

Give me track times!!!!! Or at least a vericom!!

I heard that HKS did the mods on the FQ-360 is this true? If so, what parts were used?

i love his description of the numbnut peugeot driver seemingly blocking his lane:

But after 15 minutes the irritation had become rage. “Why,” I shouted, “doesn’t he just commit suicide.”

After half an hour I was incandescent. If I’d had a knife and fork I’d have forced his car to the side of the road and eaten him.

Finally we reached the motorway, and as I tore past I noted he was a hundred and forty twelve, a walnut-faced osteoporotic and grey shadow of his former self. I should have felt remorse that I’d harboured such unkind thoughts about a man who’d served his country in the Crimea and in the Spanish war of succession, and probably at Hastings too. But instead I gave serious consideration to ramming his Peugeot into a bridge parapet.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
