"...the bitter, casutic, smartass American..."

There's a Ron Paul banner ad on this page right now. Coincidence?

Another "Mitt Romney, Man of the People" moment.

@jimicamaro: Kenosha, Wisconsin :)

Nobody thought to take video?

Wow, he really knows nothing about cars or the auto industry. I guess this time he forgot to read the textbook the night before.

Thumbs up if you skipped to 1:32 for the start of the actual song!

Nice car. Bit overstyled for my taste, though, and its' usefulness is compromised by only being available as a sedan - when't the next-generation Elantra Touring coming? And why didn't you put the new powertrains in the existing wagon body back in 2011?

This show is seriously funny but you really have to watch it and pay attention or you'll miss the best parts....I also like how for once they're not dumping on the public schools (it's never stated outright but it's pretty obviously a Catholic school).

It was only a sedan. If it were one of the fastback wagons then I'd have a problem.

Someone at this dealership had a thing for red Cougars, they're one of the featured cars in all of these it seems.

I wonder if they gave him a promo so early on so that people know how to pronounce his name? the "a" in "Calum" can go at least three different ways and the only way to know which one someone uses is to hear them say it themselves.

Clarkson's funnier when he's mocking his own country's old cars. Fortunately British Leyland gave him plenty of material.

The roofline looks like a Toyota Matrix.

-I'm holding out for a hatchback. Really there's no excuse for not offering one since it's both replacing and based on one, and it's a growing segment.

-The most '90s thing about the interior is the plumpness of the leather seats. Maybe the cloth ones'll be toned down a bit.

I'd like to see this front and side detailing on the Giulietta's hatchback body.

It's like a G-rated version of Rowan Atkinson's "No One Called Jones" routine. Also makes me think of the Simpsons episode where there was an entire row of kids named Tyler.

-Why isn't Jeremiah Motors on the ad list? How short our memories are...

-I remember the Kodak thing, I still think Beth @KodakCL should get a VIP tour from Stohn &co. next time she gets across the lake.

-I've started watching "All-American Muslim" since the controversy erupted. I had never hea...

What's up with the urban row house instead of a McMansion on an acre out in the 'burbs, though?

0:10 - Can Homer even drive stick?

But Springfield hasn't had a Renault dealer since the last Alliance was sold and they changed the signs to Springfield Jeep-Eagle in 1987...

Fridge Logic; No way would an international *anything* consider a car this size to be a "toy". (Is that supposed to be a French accent? Italian? German?)

I wanted to hear the difference for myself but the trailer narrator just wouldn't STFU and let us hear the voice actors.

LOVE the '86-89, only thing that would've made it better would've been a 5-door hatchback.

How come the wheel covers are on? Cars really do come "packed" with the hubcaps in a bag in the trunk and you missed that.

She's just feeling a bit down because she's a new teacher with 30k in student loan debt and overheard the kid from last year's Highlander ad dissing her '92 Tercel on the playground that morning...

@austinmccrack: I thought so too, and that some of the still photography was done by Spencer (which would've been a bit ironic given the lyrics...) so I asked on his blog comments. "Nope! That was all Mark Greenberg. "

Had some Fukushima-related supply issues with the red?

Oh, Father Time. I was about to say "I thought Gandalf was a Ford man."

What happened to this blue? I can't believe they thought it would get fewer takers than orange. Oh well, there isn't a current Chevy made that Victory Red doesn't look good on.

Well, it did outlast the sealed beam requirement by almost a decade.

@semskees: Spencer Tweedy? Is that you?

Just kidding :)
