Maybe now Clarkson will take back his comments about the Z being "nasty" and harsh, as well as his recommendation that enthusiasts but the slower and more expensive BMW Z4!

That may be what he said, but I believe what he said and what he meant were two separate things. His tone was in a joking manner, hence the laughter. Oh, and the comment that it's nasty can be taken either way. To call it harsh tho...that can only be taken one way... Nothing good can come from something that's harsh.

i believe clarkson was referring to the quality of the engine noise, not the ride. Nissan really need to address this issue and if they have to charge a little extra, then so be it.

I'm pretty sure he was talking about the ride being harsh on a daily driver basis, but what does he know...he bought a Mercedes!

(OK, not just a Mercedes, but an SLK

).
