I agree that these guys are good. I think is good to see as many reviews as you can to get many perspectives on a particular vehicle

good honest reviews from these guys not typical car journalist horse shit. example: chris harris(always great to watch but hes guilty too) on the bmw m2 n55. When it was new, 'o its the best car bmw makes so nice so fun blah blah'. m2 comp comes out, 'the old car wasnt quite as sharp was slow blah blah'. point is they all put in filler and its very annoying. id rather hear about actual pros and cons than "the steering is not thatttt precise, ferarri def does it better than bmw" type of bullshit.

I am more for rear wheel drive and MT but ones I bought F90 M5 I fall in love. The x drive is phenomenal and you can turn it off and be RW only. I know it adds weight but sure nice to have.
For mine track days I will get G80 MT which will be RW For DD I don't mind AWD for winter times

I subscribe to their channel. However they are somehow becoming boring to me. Maybe I am partial, but they do seem to prefer Mercedes benz cars to BMW cars usually based on look and luxury
Unlike throttle house that their conclusions are usually based more on how how a car drives |

Love these guys. Good honest reviews and they keep it lively and interesting. Plus they don't take themselves too seriously and it's edited down perfectly so you don't get bored.
They are pretty spot on about the 8. Good, not great. And if you are going to pay that much for a car, you'd want it to be more luxurious or a better sports car. But they didn't rip into it. If I had that much money, I'd consider one as a show off car, but just because I'm a "BMW guy". Like them, I'd have a M2C first any day. |

Handling to me is reflective of Cornering traction on the inside tires. Handling to the soi pipes and Doug demuro is based on how it feels to turn right at a stop sign. Really useless reviews unless you want to see the cup holders and interior |
