4. “Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary... that’s what gets you.”
30. “Telling people at a dinner party you drive a Nissan Almera is like telling them you’ve got the ebola virus and you’re about to sneeze.”
1. [On the Enzo Ferrari] “I rang up Jay Kay, who’s got one, and said: “Can we borrow yours?” and he said, “Yeah, if I can borrow your daughter, because it amounts to the same thing.”
20. [On the Corvette Z06] “As something to live with every day, I’d rather have bird flu.”
21. [While playing the video game Gran Turismo] “Aston Martin DB9 – that’s not a racecar, that’s pornography.” Agreed!
25. [On the Porsche Cayenne] “I’ve seen gangrenous wounds better looking than this!”
33. [On cars at a Max Power show) “Most of these cars will do 0-60 once....and then they’ll blow up.”
39. [On Segways] “They’re made in America, of course, so fat Yanks can go to the fridge without expending any energy.”
40. [On a Chevrolet Corvette] “The Americans lecture the world on democracy and then won’t let me turn the traction control off!”
45. “Koenigsegg are saying that the CCX is more comfortable. More comfortable than what... being stabbed?”
46. “I’m sorry, but having an Aston Martin DB9 on the drive and not driving it is a bit like having Keira Knightley in your bed and sleeping on the couch. If you’ve got even half a scrotum it’s not going to happen.”
47. “The air conditioning in Lamborghinis used to be an asthmatic sitting in the dashboard blowing at you through a straw.”
All these are my favourite quotes.
hahahahaha i love the one about the AC in old Lambos, he said that when they were showing the Countach i think.
His quotes is one of a kind, can't find in any where else and some more hilarious i would say
But I realised a lot of his quotes are bad remarks about cars. Like his comments about the Caymen S, Cayenne, Merc SLR, Z06, etc.
hahaha.. the last one on the AC in lambo is hilarious
its hard to pick a fave.. he has so many gems.. lol
I like all of them...all very creative!
i dunno... somehow i just noticed that he loves to use the word "astonishing!"

I don’t understand bus lanes. Why do poor people have to get to places quicker than I do?

he is british and therefore he is a pro english marques.... so when JC and co. says tt the DB9 was the prettiest car of all time i was like..
oh rly??? cos i seriously dun like the mouth in front....
and he is kinda anti jap... so he slams toyota, nissan... the only jap car i heard him say is good is the rx-8 and the r33 and r34...
just take his comments with a pinch of salt...
JC can attain this level popularity is because he is zhuai and sprouts politically incorrect stuff... though i give it to him for his creativity...
i always felt that most funny jokes are politically incorrect and vice versa...
and he has the backing of the producers to say these kinda things too... and god knows how many lawyers...
imagine some of ur favourite hosts from mediacorp were like him to be so outlandish .. i think u all will not see them the next day...
Yeah, got to agree with n0x. His comments are usually incorrect or too biased. But oh well, there's no denying he's witty and funny.
