Clarkson is dead on
it is sad but true most americans know nothing about cars.
While there are many of us here that watch topgear on the internets ( ) every chance we get. That just wouldnt be enough to support it.

So what you're saying is that per capita, Americans know less about cars then people from X Y or Z country? You're joking right? Please tell me you're not that short sighted.
