I suppose it had to happen some day, the one man who loves to hate 911's yes you've guessed it Jeremy "Ferrari" Clarkson, has appeared to have bitten off more than he can chew.

Last night he had another contender on Top gear for his "un-cool" bill board. Yes it was a 911, an 80's 911 to be exact.
The one in question that he had taken a picture of was a red 911. These are his words of description that made it an "un-cool" car:

Look at this car, some body has taken their 911 sc and put a turbo body kit on it, and stuck a Carrera badge on the back! How un-cool!

What does that car describe to a 911 enthusiast? Yep, a 911 super sport!

I'm almost defiantly sure that he has got this totally wrong and made a big assumption, if not to only knock 911's down once again.

If it was what he described, how could he tell it was a true 911 sc from a snap shot!

Comments pls"¦"¦..

My view on the comment was that the ' uncool' part of it was representing the car (an SC) as something it wasn' t (a turbo) so I didn' t feel offended or my car slighted. However your comment on supersports does raise a dilemma!

Having said all that I view Jeremy Clarkson as one of the funniest people on TV rather than someone whos knowledge base I admire!

Judging by the photo, the car didn' t have Turbo wings (although it was a brief glimpse), just a different front valence.
I think the main reason he put it in ' uncool' was because it was his co-presenters car (the liitle guy) and he had just placed Clarksons AMG Merc in the ' uncool' category.
