Momma said that if you have nothing good to say...so I've said nothing, but you were straightforward and fully capture how his reviews come across...nothing to see/learn there for me...thanks for succinctly telling it like it is!

Now Chris Harris is something else...

P.S. Bad connection where I'm at and forgetting how to embed...if someone could help out...cheers

Posted fine, and +1 all around. Great seeing a 911 on alternative surfaces. That's a car that may require more than detailing spray!

At least he admitted it ...

Yes, and there are many, many, many people out there with rich parents paving the way. He does admit to it, and doesn't hide it. He has a video of him by his parents Connecticut home too...

It's refreshing for someone to just be direct about things. It is also nice to have unedited reviews.

I enjoy Chris Harris' reviews a lot but they are slickly produced and, quite frankly, you can only see so many power slides in slow motion before it gets a bit old. Having a mix to choose from, that variety, is great IMHO. Clarkson, Needell, Harris, Farah and whoever else is enthusiastic about cars can be fun to watch.

Matt Farah Review

Thanks for posting. Another statement of what a complete sports car the 911 is.

As my salesman said: Drive it 1500 km to Nurburgring. Destroy one set of tires on the Ring. Drive it back home and still only service it every second year or 30000 km.

Chris Harris is interesting and intelligent, much moreso than Matt Farah. Matt is just fine though...he's plain spoken, less sophisticated. Both are giving their impressions...which, by definition, are valid. Nothing they are doing is scientific and they don't present it as such. Just watch and enjoy. Or don't.
