Looking forward to it.
Do you use rotten eggs between takes to keep the frown on your face? |

After the criticisms from episodes 1 and 2, episode 3 looks promising. Hoping for a clearer distinction between serious criticisms and sarcasm, if any. I see attempts to bring fanboys down to ground level. BUT. Dat sir say it's keeper...

Make no mistake there will be humor and sarcasm but this is definitely is 100% more serious along with entertaining. More content less talking.

Even with its shortcomings, it's a keeper. I've heard of a lot of these problems on many cars such as brake fade. At the end of the day, it's still won so many awards its not even funny. It's IS a great car. It's NOT the best car. Can't please em all lol.

Yeah, that was my conclusion after my test drives. I wasn't blown away by it (nor was I expecting to be) but everything felt pretty good and nothing felt too objectionable. Which, as critical as I am of cars, is quite an achievement.

Hope it comes out good. Stock brakes cannot handle any heat that is for sure, not surprising though. But you cant please them all.

I came to this thread with expectations that there would be a bunch of flaming and people walking around all butthurt again.
I am thoroughly disappointed. |

Probably when the final product is released you will get more of that.
