Not sure why people are roasting the presenters. It's the owners who you need to be targeting.
Agree but it's still cringe.
This, people are so nasty in the comments. Like it's not these hosts fault at all. They're all doing a job and doing their best.
These guys drive better than Ethan ever did
@@RobsCarsI don’t get how they are any less cringe than a hobbit that has to drop sexual jokes every 5 seconds… they are doing alright.
@@McLovin0826 it were never about how well you can drive people used to like ct because they could relate to doing up older high mileage cars and working on them ect , something auto alex tdc do far better than ct has in ages and now jack and ethan have gone their own way its just a bad time join ct as most are just gonna unsub , car guys can spot fake car guys a mile off tbh , time will tell if these two live up to the test
Presenters are doing a spot on job and its just bad timing in my opinion. The owners of the channel have taken away the soul unfortunately
yea there really quite good, and the content is not bad. However no introduction for these two is very irritating.
This isn't car throttle anymore
they should have done an introduction video for the presenters and acknowledging everything that has been happening.
Bit like a top gear situation...
@@Sympli Agree entirely. They could have created a new chapter
Is car throttle in the bin thanks to corporate overlords refusing to put money into the content that the fans enjoyed? (Yes, yes it is)
Pretty much. No budget for fun cheap car challenges etc.
Wait until they realize that 90% of their viewers were viewers solely because of the previous presenters. CT channel will take a big hit.
@@absolving you speaking fax
Dear corporate, you💩the 🛏️ when you failed to support the ideas of the boys who have previously been on this channel. It's too late.
To the presenters, I hope you can use this to gain experience and branch out for yourselves and do well. Much love❤
@@absolvingand they’ll get new viewers with new (good) presenters
Poor lads, not their fault. But respectively - unsubbed.
This is not an airport..
@@MyRealName No, but it is a comment section to discuss the video freely.
Nah, sorry we're watching all your previous employees channels now.
You realise you can watch this afterwards?! 🤷
I’m watching both. Why would you come comment on a video you don’t intend to watch?
What are the names of those channels?
Auto alex, top dead centre and all the gear
@usmanfarooq96 because od the reasons why, they ALL ended up leaving, and the fact its history replaying itself... they wanted to be a car channel, but with no budget, ams expecting the hosts to earn peanuts... they deserve to know how much they've pissed off they're EX loyal fans.
Waiting to see Ethan and Jack on Autoalex now 🤣
same
Well on TDC but yeah
Can i has an "search-terms" for Ethan and Jack ? Plos
Apparently I'm WAS subscribed to the wrong channel .
@@bedroxzbass4706 either will do to be honest
I hope they go on TDC I prefer the content on there
Rest in peace Car Throttle, this channel now feels like when Chris Evans presented Top Gear..
Except it's not Chris Evans, it's pure car guys who actually know how to drive a car unlike anyone before them.
Agreed soul less,
Been watching CT since Adnan and Alex were the main presenters, with ethan only appearing in the background and jack hadn't even been 'born' yet. I'm sure the now presenters were chuffed with their new position, and they seem to be doing a great job; it's just such a huge shame they've come in front of the camera during a time where the owners and investors have their own fists up their asses.
Im with you, been here for years, and this channel went through a lot of phases, i just hope this is also one of them, lets see what happens, the new videos have been ok and i really like matt, its not his first time presenting here, and alex needs a bit of work but hes a great driver, if the owners allow it, i might just think that we will get 4 new amazing car channels
so wait when Ethan and jack were in this channel no new cars only used shit boxes but the new presenters get all the new cool cars? Real Nice
Car Throttle had everything of a good CZcams channel once, and now just like top gear it will die a slow quiet death.
This is thier Fired Clarkson Moment
Well done Car Throttle management, you've destroyed the largest UK motoring channel on CZcams in record time, definite Chris Evans Top Gear vibes. great work!
This is akin to when BBC replaced Clarkson, May and Hammond. It was bad enough Alex leaving, but where's the other 3 lads. Not the same, bye.
They're at AutoAlex, TDC and All The Gear
Bye!
its when BBC decided british should not be white anymore.
Don’t know why people are berating these guys, they are quite good at what they do and with auto Alex, TDC, and whatever new thing Ethan and Jack are doing with auto Alex we will have 4 CZcams channels to watch. keep the videos coming guys, you two are doing grand to say you had some big shoes to fill. Car throttle bosses may have caused some drastic changes which were not good for the channel, but I’m optimistic this will work out for these guys once all the CZcams trolls have had their fill, got used to change, and these guys find their feet 👍
Because it’s shit there presenters are OK but it’s just like a failed top gear again, they couldn’t even do a video to say Jack and Ethan had left or an introduction to the new team, the dynamic has completely changed and it’s not good
Well said sir 👍
Hearing Alex laugh like that is just so reminiscent of how he was on the Camber and Combustion yt channel. Keep it up in these videos guys, sod all the haters
Rest in peace Car Throttle 😥
Final nail in coffin........ bring in Paddy?😂😂😂😂😂
Just watch it as a new channel about cars, if you don't like it don't watch it again.
Already unsubscribed. Your advice needs more 👍
Exactly. Just because it’s different doesn’t automatically mean it’s bad. Some decent presenters, they can drive too!
Stop shouting!!!!!
Exactly
Stop talking over each other!!!
Wait - didn't Alex already do this a few years ago with a GT86 and a Celica?
All the gear will outgrow car throttle
Did not expect to see Alex from camber and combustion on the channel! Love to see it
Don’t expect a lot, the channel seems to be in the bin currently. Lost 20k subscribers in the past 30 days, and that number is only increasing
Thought I had already unsubscribed. Geez
Same
whats happened rip this channel
The owners of the channel refused to allow the presenters (alex, jack and ethan) to buy ANY cars so they all left one by one and started their own channels, making better content and spending money where and when THEY want. thats whts happened.
@@DetectiveDeuche What are their channel names?
@@YeeLeeHaw Top Dead Center and All The Gear
@@YeeLeeHaw @AutoalexCars, @TopDeadC and @AllThe_Gear
@@VWT3SyncroDoka5E Thanks.
I don't like the people running CT but I do not mind these hosts at all
the toxic comment section is the best part of these new videos
it'll settle down as either a) people tire or b) these guys prove themselves somehow. 👌
Who are these dudes?
Hats off to these new guys. They're doing great. I hope in time all these negative comments will fade and they can get on making the videos that they obviously enjoy.
Poor guys man they dont deserve all this hate.
To all you haters go and subscribe to auto alex, TDC and all the gear and keep your comments to yourselves. Its not like we are missing out on content from the old guys, they have their own channels now, so more content for us all😊
Yep, so many people just want to criticise. Why? Lol 🤦♂️
Posting on a public platform invites criticism, don't like it? Take your own advice and stop looking at the comments.
Without Ethan, Jack and Alex the Car Throttle channel is now officially DEAD ☠️ 🪦
The car you can afford is always more fun than the car you want bc only one of the two are sitting in your garage.
Jack and Ethan from Temu are back
Do you enjoy hating people who love what they do and do it well? Loser :)
What is the point of this video?
Car throttle is trying to redeem itself which it inevitably wont be able to do. If I were the owners of CT, id be offering to sell the channel to autoalex, he at least knows how the channel worked best and could potentially revive it. But he wont because him leaving CT was the best decision he ever made
@@DetectiveDeuche Alex started his own channel(s) which are doing very good. Why would Alex want to buy CT? I gues we've got to face the fact that CarThrottle as we knew it is gone and it will never be the same as before Alex left.
I'm sorry for the new guys, this is not their fault but management had their heads up their asses and that's what killed the channel.
What is the point of your comment?
Comparing a pricier car to a cheaper MX-5... How original
Poor guys getting roasted. They need time to build up their charisma but also there should have been a video explaining and introducing them and where the channel is going etc. doesnt help the video being uploaded on the same day as ATG and AA lol
When Alex left I thought it was done but Ethan and jack kept it alive but now ......rip !
Edwin too! He used to do voice over in much older videos
Quality presenting and driving. Keep up the good work and good luck 💪
Exactly 🤝
Poor guys willingly climbed onto a sinking ship!!😅
seize opportunity. you would too, given the chance.
I’ve seen replacement presentors doing a far worse job … top gear…
Bit of transparancy, intro would have been nice. YT is a more direct medium than regular tv shows.
Matt is a lovely fellow, and Alex a great driver, yes they are not the presenters we knew, but neither is the channel, and especially the owners, this was one of my first channels subscribed on yt and i really hope they restore their former glory, and in that way we get 4 great car channels, and car throttle was the academy of them in a way
I quite like the new format, feels like the old double tests Fifth Gear did.
I really enjoyed the video. You guys did a great job. Unfortunately it’s not what we expect from Car Throttle. Re-name the channel and you are onto a winner.
Cheers richard Branson 😂
If you don’t like the content - don’t watch it! We’re all aware of the issues people have had with CT, I think this is still great and really like how Alex can genuinely drive! His camber and combustion videos have always been great
Would be more interesting to have had an MR2 instead of the MX-5
Love this and the type R old vs new comparisons, shows how much fun can still be had on a budget
When these guys are opening own channel?
I don't care about what CT politics are and who went where. I do enjoy watching the new presenters. It's just bad timing for them. Keep up the good work lads
Why do I just see at as we literally have more content to watch we have car throttle,auto Alex,top dead centre and now all the gear
yup. agreed.
Fun video. Good to see a couple of decent drivers togethers, give me slight Fifth Gear
Plato/Needell vibes.
Agree with other comment. Think of it as a new duo on new channel. More car content im happy. Fingers crossed content keeps coming
Oh dear didn’t something similar happen to top gear, a revamp that completely flopped this looks similar 🤣🤣
Why is the guy in the grey trousers that are too big for him, shouting at us 😂
Who the hell are these guys?!
Alex is from camber and combustion youtube channel
idk, but beard can drive
It was a good run. Thanks for the previously good videos CT.
You will be missed.
This channel has gone down the shitter, thank god previous presenters have their own youtube channel now
Good luck to the new guys
Last week was 13.14m subs now 13.12m, people are unsubbing fast on this channel. I’ve finished here as the presenters are OK, the owners are not.
Ngl...Thats a good contect! They got nice chemistry
Top video lads
Watching this channel die after like a decade of watching all their content is like seeing BBC fire Jeremy Clarkson and top gear was never the same… RIP CarThrottle.
A better comparison is the RX8. These are far closer to the GR86 as sports cars with very similar feel (if the RX8 is on firmer suspension, stock is suuuuuper soft), handling limits, and power. And RX8s tend to be cheap as dirt, often significantly less than a Miata.
Almost like you should watch the series.. Living with a rotary 😅 or can we not bring that up anymore?
@@ZackNakazora1 I've watched most of it...and I've owned one, well now two, for around 5 years. In terms of sports cars, the GR86 and RX8 are probably the two most alike feeling to drive. Miata, S2000, Solstice GXP/Sky Redline, Z4, 350Z, 370Z, and others are farther departures. What makes the RX8 so alike to the GR86 (or FT86 for that matter) is they share largely similar proportions, power output (well at least the GR86), weight balance, chassis stiffness, driver position, and especially center of gravity. There's differences in suspension design and such, but these are really very, very alike when, for example, racing around an autocross course.
Tbh for a little more an s2000 vs gr would be more considered. You should make a video guys s2k vs the gr.
The miata is more fun then both the s2000 and gr so that would be a more equal test gr vs s2000.
@@Sideways_Singhhahaha, no.
When is the last time you priced a decent S2000?
for a little more haha spoken like somebody who doesnt know the price of s2ks
@@user-ty5di3ku6o I mean the s2000 is inherently flawed, it's got a great engine and gearbox but sticky steering and a spikey chassis, if i was to buy another sports car under £15k i'd go for an NC with Suspension mods over an S2K.
this channel has become new top gear 🤣
Love matts fabrication channel dont know how is going to turn out but best of luck boys new jobs are hard enough with the fickle youtube crowd.i for one appreciate the extra content in a niche i love
Alex and Matt are doing grand. Nice to have a proper driver involved, willing to give it time. Yes CT has changed and some of the old team are appearing elsewhere, but who cares, we just gain more content.
I thought i would give it a chance but naa this is not for me, not the presenters' fault
Someone had to pilot the Challenger as it fell to the ground
i like 'em. I will watch both. 👍
Good luck lads , big shoes to fill .
So trash without the old cast 😂😂
All the Gear, Top Dead Centre and AutoAlex. Seeing Jack and Eithan again and creating their own channels. Now seeing the three channels coming together and seeing a bunch of legends!! After 8 years, I am going to say Goodbye Car Throttle, I will be one less subscriber. Wish you all the best!!
i lasted 27 seconds longer than i thought i would last
RIP car throttle was there for most of my childhood
RIP car throttle
I can't do a convertible and I don't think I'm alone. Hence the gr86 selling so well as most small, sporty cars are soft top convertibles.
I'm starting to think that mx5 wasn't tuned right.
This surpassed what i expected. Just something to get used to. I guarantee a large chunk of thr people moaning on here will still watch CT
Exactly. They're posting up comments saying they're unsubscribing .. but I bet they don't!
Just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
Sorry to be the guy who knows nothing about cars. But I have a question if anyone can help? My gf bought a grandland x second hand 45k miles 2 months ago. Everything was fine. But a few times now the gear stick jumps back into neutral while driving. It's booked in next week to see what wrong. should she stop driving it ASAP? Also wanted to know if this is a common issue with the grandland x? Any advice or help would be great. 👍

£3k for a bit of fun sounds good.
where can you buy a mx5 for 3k? here in italy they are about 20K with 100k km and 10-15k with 150-200k km
properly following in the steps of the bbc with top gear
Jack and Ethan are on todays auto Alex video.
They aren't after joining Auto Alex. They've started their own channel called all the gear
Id like to see the subscriber figures after this.
How long do we think it will be before these guys get done over and start there own channels? I’m hopping and waiting for there own channel 🤣
I hear a very unpleasant noise in the Toyota, does it have a fake exhaust note played through the speakers? Is it possible to turn it off eventually?
not really a toyota
@@chrismcgowan5180 I know, obviously, that it’s a shared project with Subaru, i think there’s absolutely no need to specify that. I just named it Toyota after the badge it wears. Duh
@@Lasergun74 I'm a Toyota fuckboy (as you now probably know and shouldn't waste any more time on) but the fact that they didn't mention it made me mad. It's a bmw btw Toyota literally only stuck a badge on it like the hiace vans recently
@@chrismcgowan5180 that was the Supra… the GR86 has a Subaru flat four engine. Not that much of an expert pal…
To answer your question: Yes, the GR86 has quite a loud synthetic sound pumped in the cabin. It's ok in the beginning but gets a bit annoying after a few months. I disconnected it on mine and have an aftermarket catback exhaust. A lot better!!
This is by no means a bad video, and it's still early days for this new presenting duo, but I still doesn't think the chemistry is there and for me, there's no real 'spark'. Unlike many, I'm open minded enough to give the channel a few more tries before turning off.
Its not the presenters fault guys, remember that.
Basically Jeremy being booted off top gear all over again 😂
Sorry fellas I know it’s not you fault but this channel is done for me. I wish you guys all the success!
Compared to the ford video this is a great improvement
who are these melts.
Bring me on the Channel tbh
Rip car throttle
What did i mis and why did they think this was HALFWAY a good idea
this is basically a top gear scenario, except this time it's skinny jeans vs vanilla ice lmao
i mean why even bother haha
It's just different than it used to be, suppose I will have to give time but it's a bit like top gear and the grand tour the former lost it's mojo and never really got it back.
Is it possible to keep a car channel going after a significant change in presenting staff? Ask the BBC how it went for them.
RIP Car Throttle.
I think I’d buy the Mx-5 and spend my £27k change on the holiday of a lifetime to get over the power difference.
Could also invest in some BC’s and firm that suspension up 🤔
Given the circumstances, the new oresenters did well. They need to get a little bit more seated, sure. But its not a trainwreck.
Not to say im not unhappy with how CT has been managed. But rarely are the people responsible held accountable. Its always those on screen.
This comments sections proves it.
I havent decided yet if im unsibscribing or not, I'm definitely going to give the new CT a chance.
Alex got 300k more views 😂😂
I can't put my finger on it, but, after watching this video, I have an insatiable urge to play Half Life... Anyway, this was a fun video.
