It's all fun and games...have you seen how many cars they call rubbish? If it isn't a super car, and a good super car at that, it's just ok.

They are awesome BTW

have you seen their comments on the Ford GT, ZR1, CTS-V, or Challenger SRT8. They don't hate all American cars, just the ones that suck. Which is a good majority of them.

I just got an email about someone's comment on the video:

chrysler neon is the worst car in the world
my sister had one the paint peeled off air coditioning didnt work and it just kept breaking


My sister has one too. Her a/c barely works, it stalls frequently, she's been in several accidents, can't get it alligned, never roatates the tires, etc. and it too keeps breaking. If you take care of your car, it won't leave you stranded. I'm sure I could make a geo metro outlast a BMW.

IT'S CALLED MAINTENANCE.

I am surprised they showed those compilations of videos, they have been on the net for 1-2yrs before that show aired.

It's an overseas show. Buicks are luxury cars, Hondas are for old people and Ford Mondeo (Focus) is the family car of choice. Things in America are just so very different compared to the rest of the world.

And think about it stock for stock. A Neon is not all that wonderous in stock form.

Amazing show. Those chaps are quite funny.

Anyone see the episode when they are all fishing and the seal swims by? 'It's like a dog...with no legs!"

Lolz.

EDIT: I think this thread would be better titled as, "Everyone hates Neons." :lol:
