I've seen that show a few times while in Europe(hate the place) and I think that was his shot at humor. They pretty much only like Brit cars except for Jags,which they consider Fords. They beat up on cars like the Acura TL and even the Lexus GS400. They have an obvious Euro/Brit bias and nobody outside the UK really takes these guys seriously.
I'm enjoying seeing some of the US mags and cars shows getting away from falling over their bits to heap praise on every single BMW. I actually witnessed C&D complain about reliability problems with a new M3,this after the car has been bashed all over the net by owners and techs.

While I did not agree with there "United Nations" race results, the C6 did do very
well on their road course, finishing right below the EVO times! But what was with
the other guy and leaf springs at the end....obviously a bloody twit!

That was indeed funny. It looks more like flattery to me. If they felt it necessary to only quickly mention the price was $20k POUNDS cheaper ( thats $40k USD ) then the closest rival its no wonder they had to cut it down as much as they could with a lame test driver and pissy hosts. They only pointed out the obvious weaknesses to the car and barely mentioned its numerous advantages which I need nor list out for you guys 
What exactly do you think their sponsors would do to that show or their jobs if they told the whole UK that the Corvette will wipe the butts off anything they build for forty grand less? Does Corvette sponsor that show? By the looks of it I sincerely doubt it. Did anyone else notice they did not show the "drag race" uncut? they had different angles of likely different footage to amplify their own views/opinions not show the obvious truth that the Vette would womp those other posers so bad its not funny. Besides they had wuss *** driving the vette and likely three other helmet wearing "pros" driving the others.
Think about whats realing going on there and hold our heads high. The one thing few consider is that every single other country WANTS to be America. No need to get all pissy and give anyone from outside the US any more reason to hate.

Pure and simple: Haters. Dave Chappelle couldn't have scripted it better.
As far as the geopolitical commentary, it's as ignorant as their review. Other people's business?? They should know better. After all, they invented the word "Empire" (well, took it from latin) as well as the phrase "miserable failure"

It was definately gay, but it was sorta humorous to me. But then again, I sorta like British humor. They were definately some sisses tho. If they didn't like that clutch, they wouldn't even be able to press the clutch in to crank my car with the 910.

Besides, if we really need to get into a country vs. country match, I always remember the saying "Oh, you're from Europe? The region who's *** we kicked, or the region who's *** we saved?"

He said the vettes rear susp. has Leaf springS, It only has 1 (mono leaf) and by the way they talk they make you think they are metal ones right out of a F-350.

Thats a little messed up bashing the whole country just because of 2 guys, they did bash the vette alot, but would you honestly expect them to admit it is equal to or better than a car of that region? it just wouldnt happen, and yea both of them were being douch's but bashing the whole country is messed up, thats where im from and i love my country just like you love yours, so please if you think those guys are *******, which they seem to be, fair enough, but stick with them, that just hits home for me, ok im done

I mean come on, the C6's suspension was tuned and tested at Nurburgring fercrissakes. Talk about a bogus, politically driven car test. And that little inbred british dipstick that was driving it at the beginning needs to learn how to drive a real car. My leg hurts! Gimme a break noodle legs, hit the gym once a year!
