  1. Great job on this! The Halogen reflector headlights is insulting at this price. The inside looks very cheap which is fine at $20k range but not $40k like this Tremor. I disliked the automatic transmission when I drove it around the city where it would do random shifts and lug the engine.
    25
  2. You mean the $50k Transverse with less practicality. So overpriced. That interior is straight out of a $26k Camaro. Bad
    20
  3. The Civic Type R is the only car a grown man should never own
    18
  4. Most pure Honda was a S2000
    18
  5. Love Genesis design language inside and out. I want one badly. A proper rwd based luxury vehicle. Very elegant looking. Definetly like it better when you are solo
    18
  6. Love this car! Looks and drives amazing. Tech is easy to understand and fully functional. I do not mind the user interface being shared with Hyundai because its one of the best. Guy reviewing has clearly not used the Lexus touchpad interface. Id take Hyundai over Lexus ,Acuras, or Jaguars interface all day. Your wife gets it. She likes it. I do wish they would hve a manual for the 3.3L TT and that they would did the copper accented grill like they had on the G80 Sport. Small quibbles

  7. Crazy that they ask $30k for a 2009 product. Given the mustang and camaro, no idea why you would consider this really
    14
  8. way too much money
    13
  9. The rear end is just unattractive. The wing makes it worse. Really I'm just sad about the lost of the manual option. That's what always had me buying Corvettes. Sadly the C7 will be my last corvette it looks like. I'm sure Chevy will be fine without me haha. The C8 is a great car. Just not for me. I'd get a 718 GTS 4.0 with a manual
    10
  10. The V90 is so overpriced or under equipped and under engines. This needs a 6 cylinder engine and it needs to be longitudinally mounted. I dont consider Volvo a luxury brand when all they can offer is a 4 popper, poor awd system, and torque steer at random parts. Not having rear heated seats is a bit insulting as a "luxury" car and for that price. In a luxury car, its the details that matter and Volvo ignores many.

  11. How does one drive this and not feel like they completely gave up on life? How depressing. Thats not even getting into the oil dilution issue that still remains in colder climates.
    9
  12. So why did you n9t comoare it to you know, its competition like the Focus ST or GTI, or even the Elantra Sport?
    9
  13. it has a 5 speed
    8
  14. Literally the ugliest car made today. Would be embarrassed to recieve a ride in one of these. Fail Honda
    8
  15. So it sounded like it was all understeer on the track session, was it? Hard to get a real idea about it with all the marketing going on.
    8
  16. @Edwin Rodriguez Tell that to BMW, Audi, Genesis, Mercedes, Acura, and Volvo. Its a luxury car. Meaning excess. If you can't afford to make a luxury car what the hell are you doing in this segment Lexus? Your comment is typical Toyota/Lexus apologist. You next message will be about unrivalled reliability. Very predictable

  17. I'll take a Genesis GV70 all day over this Rav4
    6
  18. I'm incredibly impressed. I was worried this would be like the Volvo and be more fwd dependent. This GLA seemed perfect with power distribution
    6
  19. I'd take the non-RF, manual equipped Miata over this all day. $60 to $65k for a 4 cylinder is quite ridiculous especially for a non mid engined car
    6
  20. There is a reason Acura needs to give these away and are now building TLX and MDX at the same plant its built. It's a video game no one asked for. Hated my drive in this pig. I'll take a V10 Audi R8 all day over this. Acceleration times be damned. I don't want a Civic interior in my $160k plus car let alone one that doesnt even have Android Auto. If all I wanted was straight line pulls I'd get a Tesla Model S.
    6
  21. Really impressive how hard Dodge tries to make this boat float.
    6
  22.  @deverenfogle3201  I work at a luxury dealership. I have sampled all the Volvo flavors along with the Koreans, Japanese, Germans, and Italians. I speak from a diverse knowledge on cars that isn't influenced by the manufacturer. You should not assume you know someone when you don't. That's called ignorance.
    6
  23. Daily my favorite car in this class. Love how it sounds and drives. Would take the Veloster N over the ugly Civic Type R. Appreciate Hyundai keeping it affordable as well
    6
  24. $30k+ car and halogen only headlamps.... Slow, expensive, and plasticy. Get a civic hatch that get 38mpg and save yourself the misery
    5
  25. Great review! Dislike everything about this overpriced cute ute but appreciate the honesty here and fresh take. Everything is too slow on this vehicle from the processor, to the motor, to the start stop system. Also Nebraska is so hot right now at JLR
    5
  26. Easily one of the best Mazda 3 reviews ive seen. Very honest and its greatly appreciated. No Mazda pr speak. Mazda priced me out of the market. I'm not paying $28k plus just to get a manual . For that money I'd get a Golf GTI with LSD and 228hp standard. Now that's premium. Mazda 3 having the lug nuts come off its wheels are not so Premium. In all seriousness I think Mazda missed alot of key points for this car when trying to be premium. Needed to upgrade its engine from prior gen and it has not. Also heard Sky X is going the way of the diesels for the NA ,market meaning not for years. I actually really wish I would have bought a prior gen. Thought the hatch version looked much better and Premium versus this new version with C pillar for days
    5
  27. It looks nice. The interior is definitely nicer than a Silverado, but thats a very low bar. Its pricetag doesn't do it any favors and I wonder if they can match the domestics with incentives. Its not really competitive with towing/payload stats or acceleration. Not sure who this is for. It does sound good though

  28. There should have been a category for which group of YouTube fanboys are more butt hurt. Winner : Toyota

  29. If Fiat was smart they would put it up against the Toyota CHR or Nissan kick. All garbage vehicles but at least it would fit in there. Sad. To answer your question, I'm just going to state the cars I would take the 500L over, since it's much shorter. I'd take a 500L over a Nissan Versa, Nissan Kicks, and Subaru Crosstrek. That's it. The 500L has a peppier engine and no CVT like the Subaru and Nissan vehicles. Other than that I would take all the competition over the 500L.

  30. Serious question, if Alfa used the uconnect system out of FCA vehicles, would you then complain its the same system out of a Pacifica even though it worked flawlessly? @Driving Sports TV
    4
  31. Id get a camaro SS or 370Z loaded for $35k.
    4
  32. I love how many 0 to 60mph runs you did. Each time improving, but still very slow for the segment. Such a lazy offering by Lexus. Might as well keep your prior gen unless you are a hooning enthusiast when you drive your Lexus on the edge, but don't need speed, and don't mind that you can't fully defeat the electronic nannie systems that keep it boring. Its weird to be bragging about a touchscreen and Carplay/Android Auto for a 2021 model, but that is progressive Lexus for you. This is coming from someone who owns the prior gen

  33. For $50K I'm going Acura RDX and saving $6k. SH AWD is superior to GM awd system
    4
  34. Unsubscribed
    3
  35. Hkw the hell is $50k reasonable money? What planet are you from?
    3
  36. This is without a doubt your best work. Fantastic job! Really have no interest in this car but you kept me interested throughout the whole video
    3
  37.  @normt5463  dude no one likes you. All you do is comment how great GM is. Go away
    3
  38. Alan Bowers no, for the $32k asked of the 370z you can get a Camaro SS or Mustang GT. End of story
    3
  39.  @rolan2dr  how can you do predicted reliability on new cars ? Hahaha
    3
  40.  @themagician7734  Rav4 Adventure awd system is superior. Just look at the TRD version article that kept up with a Wrangler in nearly everything. Couldn't kill it. If you think off roading in a CVT is fun god bless. I'll take the geared automatic
    3
  41. Luxury and CVT never go together. Cant wait for the Genesis GV70 which will be a proper rwd based platform and a conventiona automatic transmission. Infiniti needs to go away. This is more a Nissan product anyways. There CVTs ruin all the love dial there products could have
    3
  42. Objectively a great car. However its exterior is off putting enough that I would never shop it
    3
  43. Honestly fantastic review! Wish though you gave us a time on that 0-60mph run
    2
  44. Tan N how dare you introduce facts to this video review. He was provided this vehicle VW so he could never speak ill of it. This is a paid infomercial at best
    2
  45. $65k?! Holy wow. Yeah no was thinking $45k max
    2
  46. These were surprisingly not reliable. The axles were having problems. Hopefully they fixed that. Wished this offered a manual transmission option like the ATS V and M4. Given how dated the tech is, I'm surprised at the premium Lexus asks for this at $80k. Sad part is even if Lexus updated the tech, it would still be out of date and lacking even basics like Android Auto.
    2
  47.  @truthistruth615  Sonic was blue though ;)
    2
  48. Durango is RWD based so really, no
    2
  49. I would go Kia Stinger or Honda Accord. Nissan CVT is a no go and the build quality is worse than a $15k Kia Rio
    2
  50. I don't understand Subaru nowadays. Making you get an awful CVT unordered to get the sport Recaro seats and adjustable dampeners is why I left the brand years ago.
    2
  51. @Lars Sfeihc Watch Autoguide.com COTY video and the build quality was miserable on the Altima.
    2
  52. Shame the powertrains are so poor in the Compass. Sadly the refresh didn't address this. Definetly not worth it's price. Piano black plastic everywhere is so cheap looking. Get a Rav4 TRD or Wrangler even for that money
    2
  53. V8 or bust, especially considering how great the current Coyote V8 sounds. Crazy how.expensive this Mustang gets
    2
  54. Driving Sports TV it's 30k fully loaded. You really don't know anything do you?
    2
  55. Seems fantastic. Really appreciate that Ford didn't compromise visibility on the new Mustang.
    2
  56. Richard Joash Tan do you know how to work a keyboard? I'm not surprised that's your choice given the low IQ. Enjoy mate
    2
  57. Alex Castro huh?
    2
  58. I would go Veloster N all day. The Civic is the ugliest car currently in production. Especially that ugly Civic Type R variant. Then there is the oil dillusion issue on the 1.5T engine. Looks like your viewers are Honda fanboys though so this argument falls on deaf ears
    2
  59. Battle of the slowest vehicles. First one to hit 60 mph under a day wins
    2
  60. Speed limiter is for vallet
    2
  61. Two main issues with this car is it kooks like an ES350 from the outside and that industry worst touchpad interface. It ruins everything. I was also shocked at how hard the suspension rode. The new Genesis G90 would be where I would put my money as a former LS460 owner
    2
  62. I think at nearly $40k, it's biggest competitor is a low from Wrangler. I know these are discounted generally, but would still really push for a Wangler over this given it has similar compromises, with none of the resale value, power, or off readability of the Wrangler. Dooesnt make sense
    2
  63. I only buy cars with ring times....
    2
  64. Would definelty build it. Trunk mounted wing is tacky and not properly mounted to work. tS is 90% show and 10% go. All I would want of the tS is the wheels. No idea why the reviewer is obsessed with the wing. David's BRZ is perfectly done. Would not want anything more.
    2
  65. There goes your new car warranty which defeats the whole purpose of a new car.
    2
  66. Mazda CX9 formthe build quality, materials, and driving engagement. Hyundai Palisade is my second choice as its just gorgeoous inside out but not sure how that 3.8L Atkinson cycle engine will perform
    2
  67. I definitely don't think the UX is a luxury offering. Its a fine Toyota, but not for a luxury brand. It should have been the new CR H in NA. Toyota really mailed it in with the LexuSUX. Seems like false advertising saying this has AWD. Once the front tires lose grip you are done
    2
  68. Interior looks grear but I want to drive the Genesis G70. I dont trust Volvo twin charged engines and there AWD system still has the front wheels spinning so something is terribly amiss.
    2
  69. Favorite AWD system is the R35 GTR. The fact that it's more RWD and then routes p9wer back up,don't is just bliss. Such a great aystem
    1
  70. I'd go Kia Stinger personally but of the listed options it would be the Accord. Nissan has such poor build quality and a CVT. Toyota doesn't know what Android Auto is and neutered the V6 with its engine programming.
    1
  71. Richard Joash Tan anime as your picture says it all. You probably never been outside in your lifetime
    1
  72. If only you could get the CHR with the Souls 1.6L turbo and infotainment system. As is, I'm buying a Civic or Mazda 3 before even looking at these cute ute things
    1
  73. Is tbis essentially a Blazer in drag? Or vise versa. That said GM builds such overpriced, mediocre vehicles I really could care less if they disappeared. They care more about China anyways
    1
  74. Driving Sports TV you know diesel costs more, right? You pay more initially for the diesel engine, then again for maintenance, then again for diesel fuel
    1
  75. Parashar Krishnamachari the mpg is done with regular. Not Premium. Good try though
    1
  76. Great review. I will say im more dissapointed it doesnt have a Lamburghi engine (V10 or V12). The heart is what matters and to have an Audi RS8/Porsche engine just doesnt impress me. I know most women or oil based country men could care less about this but i like driving the real article. This is a Porsche Cayenne with a bodykit
    1
  77. Driving Sports TV fully loaded it is $26k? Even in non diesel?
    1
  78. Driving Sports TV that is my view as well but many reviewers knock the Maserati system for being Uconnect and not a unique system. I just want what works personally
    1
  79. Fast but fat and lifeless. I'll take the NA V8 LC500
    1
  80. What tires were on that Volvo that performed terribly? If they were Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires that might explain it ; )
    1
  81. How was heel toe pedal placement? I've heard bad things
    1
  82. Driving Sports TV good to know. I have large feet and found the Ford ST cars impossible to heel toe
    1
  83. bajabilly2004 talking to me?
    1
  84. Reynald Chandler yes brand new. A Z is 28k out the door. SS is about $32k
    1
  85. Buy anything but a MDX
    1
  86. Alan Bowers no you are correct but I'm talking about for the same amount of money. A Nissan 370z with a LSD cost $33k. For that you can get the stang gt which h is a more livable car and better performance. That is what I'm saying. An ecoboost mustang is $26k all day and you can't get a Z for that
    1
  87. Alan Bowers fair I can see your point. When I was shopping int this segment 3 years ago I didn't go with any of these options as I like having a car not seen on every corner. Also needed a usable back seat. To your point though they are all great cars but feel the Nissan should be a little cheaper but maybe I'm just poor
    1
  88. Why does that power display (2:18) still show torque dipping near 4K RPM?! Say it ant so
    1
  89.  @drivingsports  sorry I know. Was being a bit salty. Just think it's a good medium between the elite of the Germans (like you said) and the horrors of Japan luxury systems. Really it's just the Lexus system is so bad it's hard to complain as long as it's not Lexus touchpad
    1
  90. What about the Blazer hahaha

  91. Romario Smith says the illiterate that uses a letter for a word...

  92. Romario Smith let's try that one more time. This time in English

  93. bajabilly2004 is that an advance me?
    1
  94. bajabilly2004 you are 60 plus years old and drive a 17 year olds car. Your ex wife was right about you
    1
  95.  @drivingsports  great point
    1
  96. So overpriced and underpowered. Mazda CX5 2.5L T destroys this in every way. Really it's only selling point is the third row
    1
  97. Mr- T no that's the Civic
    1
  98. He already did!
    1
  99. diego diegito aggressive but it is pretty good
    1
  100. Still glorified fwd with a digital readout that says otherwise. Not impressed given all the body cladding. Also CVT is terrible
    1
  101.  @drivingsports  I saw a similar 0 to 60mph time with yours. Car and Driver is notorious for grenading transmissions to get there times with a rollout like you stated. I appreciate these more accurate times you show
    1
  102. I love the 2020 WRX. I think clutch engagement in the manual is a little vague and the price tag is high, but that is about it for complaints. I fear you are correct about the upcoming WRX new generation. I won't even consider it if it has Driverfocus camera or a CVT only offering, I'm done with Subaru. It's clear it has lost any engineers that know how to dog sports car so I don't have high hopes
    1
  103. Geez even slower
    1
  104. Personally I think Acura should make standard on all there cars SH AWD. Its the only differentiate between a Honda and an Acura. I a ctually prefer Honda powertrains to the dated Acura cars. Acura as a brand is really lost given there interiors are also worse than the Honda counterpart. SH AWD is literally the only thing Acura has going for it.
