      Negative comments usually come from people where their greatest achievement was installing a tuning sticker on their car themselves. People who actually achieved something, no matter if the same something similar or something totally different do not leave negative replies but rather start a constructive debate with pros and cons to maybe even learn a thing or two from it. Anybody ho did something is on a different level and usually doesn't need to be negative at all. Of course there are some who achieved something and then they go being a dick about it into anybodys face but nowadays soon nobody cares about such persons.

      @Mormielo Před 5 lety +7

      Well, that probably would result in the M3 beating the 330d and that would ruin the whole point of the video, wouldn't it? :P

    Dear Car Throttle. I need that knob. My favourite part of the series, was the introduction, and race with the M3. Also really enjoyed the episode where you got to test the new hybrid turbo. Why did I enjoy the series so much then? I actually bought myself an E46 M57N 6-speed Diesel Sedan, inspired by the first episode, to complete my collection of E46 330Ci and CiC. Thought it was a fun idea for a sleeper, as the prices are down. Just got the diesel sorted and MOT’d today. Needed some TLC= New bushing’s, brakes, belts, Inspection I, EGR and flaps delete.. and offcourse a remap. Now the pickup is excellent, and theres gabs of torq, so I now end up with the loose gearknob pulling out and in my hand, when giving it the beans! Stronk motor that diesel. Also a new turbo would not hurt, so if there is a raffle for that, count me in. E46 FTW, and please make sure to have your webshop & products available in Finland. Ps. Gareth requires some LSD.

    I have to say, not minding the prices and advertising - absolutely stellar camera work, every little joke, detail etc. was on point, non-boring, not over-the-top and felt like old topgear.

    • @mnoovurvi
      @mnoovurvi Před 5 lety

      That would be because it is real. And quite simple. They shoot it 3 times and use a small narrow part of the scren for each video and put them next to each other. Nothing moves except alex between the shoots. If one alex reaches to touch the next alex his hand will disappear. That would require a bit more editting.

  • @Chris-cy3uq
    @Chris-cy3uq Před 5 lety +15

    While this series was not really factually correct it was actually enjoyable and fun. You know, seeing the progression and all. The E92 was handicapped because of a bad abs pump and worn brakes, also less laps so it wasn't a fair win for the E46, but it is a nice track car indeed. Now, for 9000£ well, you can build much cheaper trackcars that are still fun, yeah not as fast as the E46 but the E46 isn't too fast of a car itself, soo I personally would not try such a project unless 1. I had a ton of money 2. I somehow got free parts lol

      I think he got better just by trying time and time again. It would take a real suspension expert to improve on a stock BMW, even this one. And just because he had a faster car, does not mean he would know how to use it. However this was just a 40 second lap, at Silverstone or Donnington, this could well be 7 or 8 seconds.

The coach and the boy working together to take on the big guy.
