I think we all know Honda has lost their minds lately!

re: Honda, I think the company is run by the marketing dept. now. Engineering has definitely taken the back seat. Saw a Crossover on the freeway this morning and the thing is ridiculously ugly and seems to have the same cockpit space as the original Insight. Who the hell buys these things?

re: Ferrari, love the look of that thing. 612 never seemed cool enough.

Mexico's ambassador to Britain has fired off a letter to the BBC demanding an apology for the antics of its Top Gear presenters, Reuters reports.

In a studio discussion of the comparative merits of sports cars from Germany, Italy and Mexico, Richard Hammond suggested they reflect the national characteristics of their makers.

The Mexican offering was, therefore, "a lazy, feckless and flatulent oaf with a mustache, leaning against a fence asleep, looking at a cactus with a blanket with a hole in the middle on as a coat".

Reuters elaborates that James May then described Mexican food as "like sick with cheese on it", while Jezza Clarkson suggested there wouldn't be any complaints about their banter because "the ambassador is going to be sitting there with a remote control, snoring"

^Yeah, I watched that episode, I cringed when he said that.

[atomicscissors]

Yeah, I read about this a couple of days ago.

I'm not sure I want to watch Top Gear anymore.

People have been saying, "They roast every nationality/race on Top Gear." and that may be true, but this "banter" seemed more malicious than the rest.
