Evening!

Had an hour with a GT86 a few weeks ago so decided to make a review video. Completely unscripted and it's the first time I've done anything like this so go easy on me! Just thought I'd share it here incase anybody's interested!

"Sort of" ;-)

Wow! Thanks for the kind words guys, I only uploaded it here for a bit of banter really so it's nice to read the positive comments.

I agree that the walk-around wasn't very polished at all, and there are definitely things I'll change for (hopefully!) my next video.

It was completely unscripted so I was actually trying to make most of it up as I went along (hence the use of "sort of" about 15,000,000 times).

Live and learn I guess, thanks again!

Wouldn't take long for a NON PH to blow this out of proportion.

Delete the video and remove this thread IMO.

Stuff like 1 minute 48. You are seriously asking for trouble here.
Curious as to why you think this? From inside the car I had a clear view of the road and also had a lookout to make sure it was safe. It's no worse than what you see on a regular basis on public roads from other road testers.

Not trying to start an argument, just curious to know your thought process is all.

Judging from your driving I think you're a typical young bloke who would end up in a ditch, if you owned a car like that.
Thanks for your concern. I'll take extra care not to drive my 3 series (with a similar power output to the '86) into a ditch on my way to work in the morning.

Mixed comments guys, the video shall remain. The "houses and driveways" were actually old farm houses with nobody inhabiting them. Furthermore, the road in the video had better visibility than the video may suggest (I've watched the video back countless times), hope this answers a lot of questions.

I wouldn't have filmed it and posted it if I thought it'd get me into trouble obviously, but I already have plans for another video and rest assured your concerns are taken care of smile
