Well they aired another 'lost' season episode of Top Gear and Jeremy Clarkson demolished your poor Crossfire into a pile of criticism.. What do you have to say?

Top Gear UK like to criticise American cars in general.
...It's all in good fun...

I own a silver vehicle and a black vehicle owns me. The black one demands attention, washing, detailing, waxing and an occasional dinner out at a nice restaurant. The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.
What do I have to say? Well, I saw that episode when it originally aired (I collect all the TG eps via bit torrent) and thought Clarkson's comment that the Crossfire Coupe rear end styling makes it look like "a dog making a poo" was hysterical. In the Crossfire community that line is repeated ad nauseum, but it's still funny.
What most fans of TG never seem to remember, however, is that a year or so later the three guys went to Iceland to compare the Crossfire Roadster (which I have), the Audi TT Roadster, and the Nissan 350Z Roadster. At the end of it all, Clarkson chose the Crossfire over the other two. Vindication? Not really. It's entertainment, nothing more, nothing less. Really good entertainment, to be sure, but still just entertainment.
