You heard about the new Pontiac they're going to be showing at the Chicago Autoshow? The Holden Commodore. ;)

Yeah! Heard about that. Vauxhall is showing it at Paris, too.

The I had to laugh at the Top Gear guys when they reviewed the Monaro. I expect they'll give the Commodore the same treatment.

I don't get Top Gear on my lineup... what were some of the things they'd said?

I love the Autoshow.

They said the traction control os simplistic, the gearbox was crude and the interior was cheap and plastic "What did you expect from an Australian car?" They then had a shit-load of fun driving it "I'm going 70mph and the engine is only doing 2500prm!" and recommended it over the Chrysler, and said it was more fun to drive than the new Jaguar. They say things like "If you're thinking of buying a Porche 911, buy a Monaro." Clarkeson claims he got his back injury from a Monaro. http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,12529-1686285,00.html

All the guys at Top Gear rave about the Monaro.

I snorted when they said they couldn't think of any Australian inventions other than the Hills Hoist.
The bionic ear, atomic absorption spectroscopy and Penicillin come immediately to mind.

That's just Clarkson. I think he's great.
