Yeah, Ford is considered almost domestic to UKites right? I know they got into business over there waaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day, shortly after the company was founded, and obviously Ford Europe has a long history of building its own cars (including basically all of the good Foci.)

The Focus is as American, as I am American(hint: I am not). Still the second most hyped car for me after the new Alfa.

I feel like they look at the model every year and say “OK, but how can we make it uglier?”

The current generation looks like a caricature; bulbous round front end with anime-eye headlights, comically large tails and absolutely none of the simple class that the previous designs had.

Get a filthy BJ’er from a lady I hardly know in the car and it’s fine, I have a snack and I’m suddenly a heathen.

But armed with Knife instead of Guns give 3 killed and 30 injured.

The point is that this clown would likely not own a Z06 or be at the track in the first place if they didn’t sell it with an auto.

I went to whale-world.com to look up facts on the beluga whale. It turns out, the Bentley Flying Spur is actually bigger than a whale.

I think that mounted screen looks good in this car. Haters, come at me!

They may have been using the Top Gear offer to get a better deal from whomever they’re negotiating with for their new show.

It’s also possible they simply refused to give the BBC a full “no” until the 11th hour to see if they could force them into allowing Jeremy back on the show.
