JezenThomas. This guy isn't an idiot, he's a f-----g retard. I was driving an MX5 before before this moron had pubic hair.

Completely idiotic moron. The one problem with Youtube is that it gives any uneducated idiot a voice and lets them pretend to be an expert just because they can speak to a camera and drive a car. Comments like numb and vague steering proves that this person is either on novocaine or is trying to get more hits by being provocative. However he contradicted himself when he said that he had car could be steered by throttle. This is can't be done with vague steering.

@Duron13 He is welcome to his opinion and to publicly express it as you and I are. In fact I'll go as far to say that people like that make the world more interesting.. My point was journalists should attempt to be objective and factual and need to be honest about what is a personal bias and opinion. As consumers of any media we need to be a bit more demanding even of Youtube videos. BTW, I agree Clarkson is more clown than journalist.

[Duron13]

@salmannazirshami Or maybe, just maybe, he has his own opinion since he don't have to agree to everybody just because people like the MX5.

And Clarkson while being a good entertainer -also I think he made his time- is by far the less consistent person I've ever see.

He can tell you X car is awesome and some times later explain to you why it's a piece of shit. So, no, he's not a journalist, let alone a good one.

The MX5 raison d`etre are its low limits balanced behaviour as well as its directness and agility to enable a driver to safely explore those limits. Thats why an MX5 at 60-80Km/h on a tight winding road is a whole lotta fun. At those speeds in a 911, Impreza or Z you will be bored. Of course at illegal speeds say 120-140km/h the latter come into their own and the MX5's shortcomings become obvious. With the state of traffic and speed limits youll always have more opportunities for fun in the MX5.

@Duron13 The so called journalist Chris Harris is the same. He is trying to be a Jeremy Clarkson by using hyperbole and exaggeration. The truth is that even Jeremy Clarkson is more an entertainer than a real journalist but at least he is consistent and does do some objective testing. Also he is the original not a wannabe.
