Just don't get the latest you tube clip by Max Revs, am I missing something here or is he trying to get more followers, or is he and his mates missing the point of a GT car, or am I missing the point, sure make a comparison but on a public road hardly gives us any information only the 981 sounded nice under the bridge and goes well over curbs, the brakes are good as he didn't rear end anyone, 718 goes well in London, good for collecting dry cleaning, and you can have a conversation in the cabin because of the lack of engine noise, all points well documented (except the dry cleaning), I really like his content but in this case I feel his obsession over the GT4 is getting the better of his judgment, for me both great cars but would like to see them together on track as they are GT cars after all, rant over

I don’t click on anymore. All click bait to me. Prefer the seasoned serious reviewers.

Enthusiastic guy, just having a bit of fun.
I do wish that the vids were more accurate in terms of content, some of the owners are not really very much into the detail.… it does annoy me. I post comments to his vids to help clarify some points.

Full disclosure, I have messaged him before if he ever wants some track content and a fuller experience of the car, so we’ll see.

But as has been said… I prefer the serious reviewers, the problem is that the non-serious ones get views because of the sensationalism, and the inaccuracies get repeated as truths, on places like here, that i feel like I have to chime in and help correct. I shouldn’t care, but it annoys me.

Did i mention that it annoys me, lol.

It's just him having some fun, it's not meant to be a serious critique laugh

I know it’s him having fun, I was trying to have some fun back, you never know he might do some content on the up and coming 4L GTS that seems to have a few people’s interest

I think he's obsessed with the GT4 currently(!) but it would be good to see if he can find someone who buys a 4.0 GTS to do a review and comparison.

I think you could be right on the obsession point, but you can’t knock his passion for the car and hope Porsche give him a slot which would be a nice ending point for him personally as a enthusiast
