he hates the 911 because it is so good. he dislikes all Porsches for the same reason. makes good TV, no worries. Both Richard and James bought Porsches after comparing a 911 Carrera to an M6 and a Aston Martin. The 911 spanked them both

that was funny, but this one even trumps the 911 episode. He tries to "Kill" a Toyota pickup truck

i think he's one of those guys you just can't stand unless you get to know him. i dont know him personally. but got to give it up to him, he makes the show, could you imagine if it was just the other two guys. "tip" (is that his name?) from top gear is far less annoying but less enjoyable to watch.

I think it is funny to watch Jeremy eat crow almost every time he drives a Porsche. He says he hates them and then the next few words are this thing is fantastic. Top Gear is an awesome show. I just wish the would run more show a season.

actually the skit with the 996 series is . They use the models and compare to the different levels of 996. Funny stuff.

Didn't that Toyota start up after they burned it?

You can smash it
You can drown it
You can burn it
but it just WONT DIE!

It's like a Halloween Movie or something.

+1

He just like to mock the 911 drivers but has never lacked respect for one. He calls Audi drivers "co**s" and said BMW owners "...would buy sh** if it had the logo on it" but have many times praised those cars too. He bashed the Honda NSX for being a copy and later said it was one of the automotive greats.

I think its what makes him so unique, he doesn't care what everyone else thinks.
