Throttle House stands out to me because they're not just reviewing cars, but they teach you about a car, its components, its culture, history. Feel like I'm in a science class instead of a dealership

@VictorPitstop 3 жыл бұрын
Yeah. No reading from a brochure. Car reviews are becoming so stagnant and no one really stands out as much as Throttle House. Savage geese is great but a touch too dry for me. I cannot stand the straight pipes because they are negative more times then not and they force their humor (humour for you Canadians). Throttle house is like the old Top Gear for me now.

As someone who actually works at the BMW Plant, I can tell you personally putting those grills on is actually kind of satisfying. Knowing these cars from the moment they are being made is special. And trust me the Alpinas always get more attention than any other model. Because of course.

Totally with Thomas in that the Alpina treatment actually suits the X7 really well. Honestly, I wish they’d offer the 5/X5 with the Alpina treatment in the US, as well. It’d be so much better suited to the way 99.9999% of these are actually driven on a daily basis.
