I don't think so, parking brake symbol is still on in the dash after that.

Shmee was driving so slow that he couldn't move a bug from his windshield. Lol

I don’t think any of the reviews state that the new cars feel heavier. Larger and wider but with more grip and as eager or more to turn in. That is promising indeed.

It’s the schoolgirl giggle that’s the worst part.

If by knowledgeable you mean, can read a brochure / spec sheet or tell you how a car looks vs prior gen... then sure.
If you mean actually telling us how the car drives and feels which is the most important part of a review; then no. Note, he also rarely if ever says anything negative about a car... because he is a follower / likes /views chaser not necessarily a true enthusiast. |

He is doing something right, he is always first on the new cars. I heard him interviewed once and he was really very likable, smart, humble, the tone he was talking in was slightly different from the one used in his vids and more preferable, IMO, but I was definitely more inclined to watch his videos after.

BMW is doing God's work by still keeping a bonafide manual transmission alive, with today's niche market and their tendency to cut-cost, at every turn.. *Cough* ✌🏻DCT*Cough They obviously outsourced the exterior designing to the Devil |

If you need low-end torque, get the Alpina B3, they specifically engineered the S58 to have loads of it (50NM more than the G80, to be precise). |

True but still more track focused than just about any other sedan... except that crazy jag that's almost 3x the price....
