Of course it does. A person who is admittedly biased against Porsches takes a (almost certainly) chaperoned test drive for a few minutes, then writes something on Epinions, and you call that a "fair review"? I call that a biased first impression, at best. You can't be biased and fair at the same time.

Maybe my standards for car reviews run a little higher than yours. I tend to think of several days time with the car, track time, varying road trips, and open-minded professional drivers when I think of a car review. Not some Epinion hack with a five minute salesman-mandated test drive loop under his belt. You don't seriously think that qualifies as a review, do you?
