Not only that Ed, it’s hard to pass an E89 because of their fat butt, no matter how slow they are going :wink:

It may also please you guys to know that this video has done quite well for me. It has been a popular video and as I don't advertise the channel it means people are looking for info on these cars

Most of the views will have come via the forum. Can't say I made it to anywhere near the end though.

If the intent of the YT reviews is money making then fair play to you , however it only confirms my opinion of it :oops: a drive out with a lacklustre half hearted review that lacked any real enthusiasm to keep me interested

I've been meaning to ask Mr Wilks, what *did* you think of my video? Lol

Approx 1% of views came from this forum, so thanks to all. It's good to encourage discussion, positive or otherwise.

I think it is a shame M Division never got a chance to have a go at the E89, but I suspect it was not a great platform to work from. I look forward to the new Z5/Supra, hopefully M get to work on that.

So you’ve expressed your disliking of his YT review on page 1, page 2 and page 3. I’m sure you can find an opportunity to express your bitterness on page 4 too! :rofl: ....

@JayEmm...fair play to you for creating some content on these cars....would love to see some of the critics here have a go at making a good youtube video....it's not as easy as it looks!

Feel free to highlight where my bitterness supposedly lies & for what reason i should be bitter :? just to highlight in case you simply flirted over without actually digesting my replies
1st was simply to ask wtf the reviewer was
2nd was in direct reply to the reviewer making himself known
3rd was to acknowledge his YT views which he was clearly more proud of than the actual review content

bitterness ? no mate , just my honest thoughts & opinion

Just pointing out I raised the fact the view count was high (for me) as a positive for the Z4, not for me per se. It's one of the lesser known cars I have featured but the fact the video does well shows interest in the cars. It's always interesting to see how videos do, they often surprise me.

I am several hundred thousand views short of making significant cash off it!

tbh its always going to be a tough gig here with a model specific video to hardcore enthusiasts so only to be expected that the harshest critics would be found here .
Glad you are enjoying doing what you are doing , i fully appreciate how difficult it must be
