I love Top Gear and I find Clarkson to be hilarious. If you don't watch the show or just watch segments where american cars are reviewed, you would think he hates americans. But that's not true. He hates everyone, including his own people. He gives ALL groups a hard time. If he hated the US so much, why would Top Gear have filmed at least 2 complete episodes over here? The episode where they were in florida and bought a bunch of heaps may be my favorite of all time.

But regarding his comments on the crossfire, he wasn't exactly wrong on all points. Looks are subjective, so that's a toss up depending on who you ask. The crossfire isn't a universal looker for all people. It does have some odd angles that are not very flattering. I can't really fault the guy for pointing out the fairly abundant weak points of the car in relation to its competitors with are mostly of higher performance. If that's all you're after in a car, then the crossfire really is a poor choice.
