    Do you tell a close friend?

    That Top Gear has selected his car, as the worst car ever built?

    A few years ago, he called me about getting a sportscar. I did my best to steer him towards a Porsche, but being a tightwad he ended up buying a used Lexus SC430.

    I don't think he watches Top Gear, should I email him the link to the show?

    Maybe lexus didn't buy any advertising from top gear or affiliated companies last year.

    That is how it seems to work in most industries...just sayin

        My advise? Never pass up the chance to give a good friend shit about anything.

        And I saw that also, haha

                      I think it is not only your duty to point it out, but also to remind him that you tried to steer him away from it.

                      I will admit that I don't know much about modern sports cars, but I always thought of the Lexus, even the SC430, as more of a luxury car and not a sports car.

                        If he gets pissed make sure to say "But then they sometimes make mistakes, for instance they rated (your car goes here) as the only second best car ever made."

                            If he's really a close friend you will convince him to get another one and then show him the Top Gear episode while you are having drinks with him.

                              I don't pay too much attention to such lists. You buy want you want to buy, and anyone who buys on brand over another because of some list is a fucking idiot.

                              Jeep ranks in the bottom of quality in most such lists, yet six months in I've never had a problem. If it does, big deal - take it and get it fixed.
