Also if it's even half true the car is complete rubbish - never mind how good or bad the old one was which he never mentions once. I doubt it would be untrue. It should be if you're paying that much, but the build quality of most cheap junk from China is abysmal. I would not be surprised. |

Give the Chines another 5 ~ 10 years and they'll be as good as the current batch of Korean cars and catching up the Japs.. |

| 1348876 | 2013-07-15 20:44:00 | For example they referred to a Nissan sports car as heavy and sluggish (300 ZX I think) They are heavy and sluggish :P |

| 1348877 | 2013-07-15 22:23:00 | Jeremy "omit the bit where we drove the electric car around in circles to drain the battery so it appears to conk out on us driving down the road" Clarkson? Yeah, nah. | pablo d (15490) | ||
| 1348878 | 2013-07-15 22:41:00 | They are heavy and sluggish :P I wasn't suggesting otherwise, what I was saying was compared to what? If you have only ever driven 5 year old corollas or the like I'm sure a 300ZX would be awesome in comparison. Most of us don't have experience of all the many sports and super cars to compare to that these guys do. They don't always favour british cars though, reviewing an Aston martin (I think) sports car they were rather positive about it in general, and then brought out a Nissan (forget which one, not the 300ZX this time) that cost half the price and showed how it was better in every way. Sorry poorly remembered details but the point was they favoured a japanese sports car over an english one. I know someone with an old Mitsubishi GTO, also considered fairly heavy for a sports car and getting quite old now. He says compared to ordinary old road cars the acceleration is scary and the thing is faster than he ever dared to find out for himself. It's all a matter of your frame of reference. |
