Yep... lol. I'm looking forward to taking delivery so I can go back to forgetting this forum exists for at least the next 6 months.

Since G87's release, my ignore list went from 0 to 8. I'm curious to see how it grows when this video is released.

Hasn't he publicly complained about it multiple times already? I don't need another 20 minute video whining about weight and how the F87 was better at trying to kill drivers. He's months late to the party.

Reviews only make sense when a car has not been launched yet. He might as well review an E90 at this point for E90 owners who need another person’s perspective on how their cars drive.

LOL...That's because his word is final and may cause many to sell ASAP.

There was also a thread with a bunch of people switching their orders from manual to auto because of TH. It's not a stretch for me to believe that one or more may be influenced in their decision based on what this guy has to say.

When I sold my 991.2 TT for an R8 I got an earful from everyone and their mothers but did it affect me? Not one iota...

The word of the day is bikeshedding. The forums blow up on reviews because we have nothing better to talk about until more people get their cars. Not because it really matters.
Chris probably won't like it, and that's fine. Like most car journos he'll probably prefer something either older (e46) or something more expensive (911). I understand the position, but those are not options for me. I would only be surprised if he prefers some other NEW 4 seater over the G87. THAT would actually be news. (Insert joke here about preferring the Z over the G87, wtf) Last edited by Squidget; 06-07-2023 at 01:12 PM.. |
