I can't stand watching those "Best Motoring" videos. I only made it half way through this one. For all the supposed credibility their drivers have, they sure make some dumb remarks:
I like mid-mounted engines because the cars handle just like FRs. Riiiiight, I'm sure there are a bunch of FRs out there that handle just like the flat six mounted midship.
It feels just like VTEC
Yeah, VTEC, withought the dramatic, sudden power change that upsets the car's balance mid-corner and causes you to spin.
It's funny how that show talks up all these great Japanese cars like they're so great.
