And yet they’re the only channel I’ve come across that will out cars on a lift and talk about the engineering of the car, suspension geometry, differentials, etc.
I totally appreciate that! I like that they'll talk about the mechanics of the cars though they can be a little pretentious despite seeming more like Honda/Acura customers vs Ferrari customers (if you catch my drift), but I've noticed that they also like to review from an angle of, "Assuming you have another reliable, family-friendly, do-everything vehicle and this can sit in your garage for weekends, sunny days, and track sessions...". Review the car in a vacuum, don't market it as if it's an extra car, some of us want a single car and what they can/cannot do is material.
Ya insight and perspective are hard to find in car reviews these days. Reviewer needs the knowledge/exp to provide meaningful info and be successful enough that Acura can’t blacklist them after an honest review.
But who else is going to give us the critical information that we need to know? Like how many Little Debbies will fit in the glovebox? Or how many clementines you can squeeze in the center console?
Raiti: “Going to have to *zonk* them for no rear air vents or USB.
Joe is basically a glorified salesman with how much sunshine he pumps. More than other reviewers, he’s prone to doing this because the majority of the cars he reviews are dealership cars and not manufacturer press cars. He can’t afford to bite the hand that feeds him because otherwise he’s lose access.yeah, not a fan of Raiti either… but this time he did gave us a better look at the car… but I could have put him on mute and the results would have been the same !
Savagegeese are really good. I do like Throttle House too… and Matt Watson from CARWOW is quite interesting with is 5 things he dislikes on every car…however, Carwow won’t review the ITS since he is from the UK…
Can already say he would have complained about the lack of a button to turn on and off the rev match
Yeah Mark doesn’t gloss over or sugarcoat things. If memory serves me correct, he actually got blackballed by Honda/Acura for a while because he didn’t follow the hype script the marketing team gave him and instead was too honest
I think you mean Mark. Jack is the Asian guy. Last I knew he had a GR86? And a C6 Z06 before that?
I do think that introduces tremendous bias, because he has his car and that's what he knows. All other cars are measured against that. For example, his review of the G87 M2, he was hypercritical of it because it wasn't an F87 M2. That's important to be spelled out, because it seems they were pretty much the outliers in their review of that car. Pretty much everyone else seemed to love it.
