@@mohammed786i I didnt think about that. You are correct. Honestly best call option really is clarkson. Hammond doesnt know anything and may would waste the time before reaching a conclusion
Jeremy should know about the Optima because he called it a good looking car on Top Gear. Although he also called it the “Optic or Optical” because “nobody who watches Top Gear was going to buy a KIA”
Ok but isn't the forester produced in indiana? Edit: I double checked and it's not. So if it was outback, ridgeline, telluride, and the suzuki it would be the ultimate lawl
It took me until they were going over what she would've guessed to realize just how similar the names of those two cars are. I was mixing it up with the Nissan Maxima, the full size sedan that is a step up from the Altima, until I remembered at the end that my sister has literally owned a Kia Optima for _years_ now, and I've driven it countless times myself 😆
Why is this on my notifications after 2 years? Anyways, I burst out of laughter when she said "I wish I had car guy near me" and then Jeremy shows up controlling his laughter 😂.
I can't get used to Jeremy Clarkson on this show instead of Top Gear. It feels almost like a CEO loosing all his money and ending up working at a McDonalds.
@@celestindimitriu3675 Ah, well, Jeremy has never been one for formality. He's always been lewd, crude, and boisterous and that's why many us love him.
It didn't "transform". The Koreans had always called it the "K5" in their homeland and the "Optima" name was for the foreign markets. It's just that they finally dropped the "Optima" name and simply called it "K5" in every market for the current generation of the model.
She really, really should have played, not just saying that in hindsight, but she had a really strong idea she was right and very importantly, at that one point in the game on a 50/50 call the upside is so much greater than the down. It is optimum point to take a 50/50 punt

Questions like this don't really suit the format of the game. What if the contestant plays 50-50 and then uses phone-a-friend? The question will make no sense to them.
One of these days I’d love to see Hammond and May appear on celebrity millionaire 😅 it would be quite funny especially if one of them got a question wrong
How do you NOT ask where subaru is from when you don't know what subaru is, but instead asking which company made optima? Like the logic is not there. Even if your friend don't know who made optima, if you know subaru is from Japan, you can still get the answer.
I've only seen 37 seconds of it: Its the Kia Optima, because they are from South Korea not in Japan like the other models from Subaru, Honda & Suzuki. A child knows that... Now I'm watching the rest. Greetings from Germany.
Imagine if she went: I want to call Richard Hammond, you do have his number right? 😂

Lol he was most likely bluffing
You know it’s scripted
He's driven thousands of cars, so I'm sure its easy to forget the boring ones
Liar liar
To be frank, I've never liked Clarkson much. He's too sly for my taste.
I think it was JM who said the optic
"I'm going to call my friend... Jeremy" 😂
Fun fact: Jeremy wasnt interested in this question because these cars are for the peasants.
strange thing to say
One of his favourite cars is a Honda.
No wonder, he despises KIAs.

Jeremy, a Brit: "You mean Vauxhall?"
Only slightly less impressive than the opel kadet :P
Chevy optima🙂
For the purposes of the question it wouldn't matter.
for an indian both optima and forrester were cars by chevrolet
I love cars... and I'm here screaming Optima since the question came up
Same here 🤣

Lol I was super confused cause I thought it was a Nissan Optima 😂😂
Lol, you're not the only one. I guess because it has similar name to nissan Al _tima_ 😅
+1
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one😭
It took me until they were going over what she would've guessed to realize just how similar the names of those two cars are. I was mixing it up with the Nissan Maxima, the full size sedan that is a step up from the Altima, until I remembered at the end that my sister has literally owned a Kia Optima for _years_ now, and I've driven it countless times myself 😆
This question has me second guessing where Subaru was made bc I thought Nissan no lmao
I was thinking it must be a trick question until google made me realize I was thinking of the Altima...
haha I made the same mistake
me too!
This man is a national treasure I will watch anything he is on
The optima is made by Kia, who are South Korean for anyone who’s wondering
We know. They told us on the video...
Yeah Jeremy told us…
For some reason I was thinking that it was the Nissan Optima so I was confused, but makes sense now
Never heard Optima before until Hertz rented me one last year
Industrious little fellows, arent they?
Anyone else get mixed up with the Altima for the Optima? 😂 for a second i thought my car knowledge was not what I thought it was
SAME
Same mate, same.
EXACTLY
ok damn.
SAME
Why is this on my notifications after 2 years?
Anyways, I burst out of laughter when she said "I wish I had car guy near me" and then Jeremy shows up controlling his laughter 😂.
This is remarkable in that how long it was drawn out… that’s entertainment..
Yes he has heard of optima. The trio talked about it when they did the news they couldn’t get the name right, optima optical optimum
years ago. But I think on the whole Jeremy finds Korean cars very forgettable, he was pretty complimentary about the ceed, that's it.
It left quite an impression on him, didn't it? 🤣
Jeremy HAS heard of the Optima!🤣🤦🏻♂️ They mentioned it in the news on Top Gear!🙄🤦🏻♂️🤣
I suppose, unlike some of us, he doesn’t regularly rewatch the News segment of TG here on youtube. A shame
@@pooroldnostradamus He didn't go on the internet this week
Yes and he called it the "Optic" and joked about Kia releasing a "clever" car
@@wga4139 it was James who called it the Optic. The Kia that Jeremy memed on was the Rio, calling it a Rooney.
Quite a forgettable car that must be then! 😂
Love Gabby she's great!🙂
Pretty sure Jezza intentionally joked about the Optima lol
his legal name is Jeremy.
i hate when short names are completely different. its illogical and makes no sense.
I can’t believe I knew about a car that Jeremy has never heard of. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to buy a lottery ticket.
Was I the only one who though it was the Opel Optima and not the Kia Optima? 😂
Nah, I also thought it was the opel tbh.
Nah, myself also.
You would still have the right answer so
Peugeot Optima ...oh wait
yep same here 🙋
I can't get used to Jeremy Clarkson on this show instead of Top Gear. It feels almost like a CEO loosing all his money and ending up working at a McDonalds.
Sure, because the show that gives millions of dollars to it’s contestants can’t afford to pay the host well. Interesting logic there.

losing.
The Optima has transformed into the beautiful Kia K5. It is one heck of a good looking car
It didn't "transform". The Koreans had always called it the "K5" in their homeland and the "Optima" name was for the foreign markets. It's just that they finally dropped the "Optima" name and simply called it "K5" in every market for the current generation of the model.

Morris Marina with optional piano on the roof
How much is it selling for ?
Man… I’d have made a deal and answered this for 20% of her potential earnings! 😂
Top gear mentioned the Kia Optima on the news and JC says he's never heard of it.
Why would he remember such an unremarkable car when he drove many of the most exciting cars in history?
Such a simple question for so much money? Wow. In our country but a long time ago there were difficult questions.
Doesn’t nissan also make an optima
I figured it was optima but wasn’t sure where Subaru was made.
In Japan.
For some reason I had Sweden in my head, but I suppose I would have been wrong.
@@quintuscrinis Same for me, I think it was because I had rallying in the back of my mind.
Jeremy’s brain was screaming at her.
I knew a car trivia that Jeremy Clarkson didn't!
Honestly thought it was a Vauxhalls Optima. 😂
Sounds a vauxhall
She could have just asked his friend that where Subaru is made, i'm pretty sure he would have known it but he just didn't share that information.
If question, 3 reliable the other not so much 😂
Ngl it took me a while to remember what the optima was too 😂
Suzuki, Honda, and Subaru are like the three most common names in Japan

Questions like this don't really suit the format of the game. What if the contestant plays 50-50 and then uses phone-a-friend? The question will make no sense to them.
Every guy in the comment section: OPTIMAAAAAAA
Isn't Optima an Opel? Opel Optima or Opel Astra?
An Opel? Don't Know,Old Fruit..
The thing is these cars have different names owing to the regional markets they are sold in.
Accord, Vitara and Forester have the same name everywhere.
Isn't Optima a Chevy? We had them in India a while back.
Wonderful
I think Top Gear done a segment on cars from Pacific Region that are not from Japan and KIA OPTIMA is one of them.
What is the registration process
I knew the Optima but not the Forester
One of these days I’d love to see Hammond and May appear on celebrity millionaire 😅 it would be quite funny especially if one of them got a question wrong
Is that Gillian Anderson? :0
Would of been hilarious if she had called either Hammo or May
Clarkson you have heard of the Optima, you called it the Optimax and Hammond had to correct to in then news
I thought Optima is from Opel.
I've seen like 10 in a row now where they would have continued if they guessed.
This just makes me feel sad for them
Doesn't Honda have factories in the USA? It's a tough question on the surface.
It's a shane that guy on telephone and Jeremy Clarkson don't know the correct answer. I am laughing.
How do you not know the Kia?
Me knowing all the manufacturers but still struggling to remember if Kia or Subaru is the Korean one out of those 4.
I thought an Optima was a Nissan.
Thats an altima
Очень простой вопрос
I cant believe i knew something jeremy didnt
Optimaaaaa of course
i didn't know who made them, but i woulda guessed optima.
An car!
Did Gaby get any sports questions earlier? Smart lady.
Don't Know.
It took me a while to figure out that they meant the Kia Optima, which is a korean car.
Well...
Kia Optima
Or
Vauxhall/Opel Optima?
My first thought too!
I would've asked for Mary's number. The man's a walking enciclopedia
I knew the name Optima, but I couldn't for the life of me remember who made it
lol this question sounds to me so easy is it real?
Easy 125k question.
It’s only easy if you know it
lol. I drive a Korean-made Kia Optima....lol.
She should of said, Give us a cough Jeremy
*calls the stig*
Optima was the one I most confident about after Accord for some reason!
Dang, I thought it was a Nissan 😅
Idk what was going on in Jeremys head at this point 😂
How do you NOT ask where subaru is from when you don't know what subaru is, but instead asking which company made optima? Like the logic is not there. Even if your friend don't know who made optima, if you know subaru is from Japan, you can still get the answer.
Nice car the Optima.
All the petrol heads said in harmony....come on this is easy...but if it ain't ya thing it ain't ya thing.
My kia!!!
I'm guessing the optima is not sold in england? It's super popular in america
So I knew a little more than Clarkson 😮... I knew Optima is from Kia 😅
He knew. He spoke about it on Top Gear.
He's just a friend.......now where have I heard that lie before........
Aaah Jeremy, Caught you in a lie there. U had a discussion about Kia Optima on a Top Gear
The car is for peasants and riff-raff. Jezza would have forgotten it, immediately after talking about it. lol
I didn’t know Jeremy hosted this show.
Optima is an Opel
it's a kia?
Opel optima
What happened to Regus Philbin?
I would have laughed If they put the kia seeeeeeeeeed
Tbf the only reason I know of the Kia Optima is because its a FWD car on iRacing 😅
Working while people stuck at home during lockdown and getting paid this was filmed.
Paused immediately. Isn't Optima Kia? Forester is Subaru. So Optima is the odd one out. I think.
I've only seen 37 seconds of it: Its the Kia Optima, because they are from South Korea not in Japan like the other models from Subaru, Honda & Suzuki. A child knows that... Now I'm watching the rest. Greetings from Germany.
I get the connection, Jeremy Clarkson was on Top Gear.
1995 Open Optima / Vauxhall Optima
2001 Kia Optima / Chevrolet Malibu
I'm not a car guy but I know about the Kia Optima
Ya but how many people really know the optima is produced in Georgia lol
I was thinking of the Opel Optima actually
