The interviewer asked him to explain his vigor, and enthusiasm for American cars. What he said, changed my way of thinking forever:

"I don't think many people in China are watching the Tonight Show. I support those who support me." WOW!

Well said.

I saw the youtube video of Top Gear's Corvette test, from a few years ago.

They have improved the Corvette so much since then , most notably interior perceived quality levels. As well as engine, trans, steering.

However, If I ever see that bastard in real life, I'm gonna run the other way, so I don't go to prison for beating him in the face with my bare hands. j/k

You know, I grew up with Dave, I saw his first show ever with Bill Murray - forever ago.

He has really begun to piss me off too. Acerbic is the word I saw describing him. No women that aren't skinny will even think of going on his nasty show.

I still record it sometimes, and ff through the bs.
