Bollocks. Making a video for the sake of making a video. Comparing the seats? Really? then pick which one you want; its not a differentiator between the models. Same as the brakes - but then again the 718 steels are an improvement over the 981s.. so there.

Before I abruptly turned off the video, there were 2 honest comments, torque delivery and turn in.

And one last thing - the title.. pretty presumptuous to thing they know what's best for me..

I have to quit watching these, they're just loaded with BS comments that don't do the car(s) justice.

Yeah, saying one is a better daily driver strictly because it's got more comfortable seats is more than a little silly. You could tell he really liked the 718 when he was getting out of it, but wanted to justify keeping his 981.

Ive yet to watch a good Spyder review video that really adds much if any value - perhaps Henry Catchpole's and the "getawayer" - that's about it ...

I'm waiting for Shmee's "why I sold my GT4/Spyder" video myself!

That guy's such a goof. You can disregard almost everything he says. His Spyder video was better, but even there the logic behind some of his conclusions is goofy. He's not a real professional car reviewer in any sense. His only claim to fame is that he owns an RS 4.0.
