I'd rather believe that Jeremey took our advise.

CLK 63 AMG Black

That's a compliment. When a guy who drives everything for a living picks one car to buy, I think he has made quite a statement. AS

While he does drive everything for a living, in the past he owned an SLK55 and Ford GT...neither particularly great cars considering their competition, IMO.

Clarkson has had both an SL55 and an SLK55. In that order.
He also owns or has owned Ford GT, Lambo Gallardo Spyder, Aston V8 Vantage, Volvo XC90, and countless more.
