How can you pass judgement when you didn't even watch it. o_O

IMO you missed out on a well-done video! I watched the whole thing and it's worth viewing. The narratives are informing. This particular GT-350 is a freaking beast. That pull from 1st gear was like, WHOA! Pretty cool how high it revs. Just when you think, SHIFT before the engine blow, you come back to the reality of this bad boy's 8,250 red line. Also showed how different it is riding in the passenger seat while someone else is WOT on a pull in your 800hp ride. The owner was definitely holding his breath a couple of times during those pulls. LOL.

I enjoyed the video and the reviewer has a bad ass GT500.

Edit - Doh! Just realized the OP was the reviewer.

I agree with the first reply... People don't want to watch 12 minutes of some stranger yapping about the car. They want to see the car in action and hear it. A good review on a car should be about 2 or 3 minutes, with nearly all of that being the car in action.

I'm not a huge fan of the social media bullshit youtube accounts either, people who just make videos to get views and make money off you.

Nice car though.

This sums it up nicely. Awesome car, but the focus should be on the car (not the guy hosting) and the video should be 2-3 minutes tops.

So nice car and all but I just can't get excited about these GT350's, they lack the raw torque of the GT500's. I mean sure 700 rwhp is a nice peak but you have to rev the motor forever to get there and then the torque never got above 550 rwtq or so. Again nice car but I guess I'm just spoiled with my GT500.

Calling stuff "ghetto" has run its course. Sick of hearing it.
