t0y0ta 5,400 Supercharged November 12, 2019 Youtube or Youku or edu channel - doesn't matter where it is on. Important is to have good content and high production values, otherwise no one will watch. Please look at the Taiwanese and USA car reviews and try to improve yourselves. They even jack car up and review the suspension setups. Current videos look much better than the usual JUNK video reviews that usually comes out of Singapore journalists, but still long long way to improve. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theoldjaffa 80,202 Hypersonic November 13, 2019 Sorry but I find the videos cringey because of James. He’s like a himbo. Please please replace James with someone more knowledgeable, preferably a hot lass like Claire Jedrek who knows her stuff. The video format is trying to be like Carwow in a sense except Carwow’s camera angles and post production editing is much better. The idea is good though, to have local reviews on cars with local specs. Maybe in the pipeline you can consider doing comparos between or among similar cars. Also please do a spell check on the RS video. Cylinder is misspelled as Cyclinder. Not very professional imo. 10 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zxcvb 8,157 Turbocharged November 13, 2019 It's a good start. I believe many here are already subscribed to many many car review channels base in US, Europe, Taiwan, China, Malaysia, etc. So the yardstick is very high for viewers to compare. Also keep in mind as a Singapore based car site, the review have to relate to us in everyday driving. So the perspective have to be along the typical Singaporean car owner mindset. Reviews from other countries kinda hard to relate cos no mountain road to drive, no straight highway, no cold weather, no wide roads, no freely available parking, no personal garage, no race track, no abandoned airfield, etc. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Watwheels 35,988 Supersonic November 14, 2019 (edited) Ok lah. I think car reviews dont need to be all specs and technicality cos it can be very boring and other Youtube reviews might just cover all that. I guess why the grand tour or what topgear used to be is successful in a way is because their focus is to be entertaining rather than going into the specifics of the geeky car stuff. Anyway I think it all boils down to budget to make your car review video entertaining. The grand tour has a big budget, you guys...I guess not. No harm trying but try not to make it too cringy to watch. And dont always talk about the car's power. I know it's a guy thing but not every car you review is a performance car.

Ganwb79 977 4th Gear November 14, 2019 Not sure whether it truly is, but I have the feeling the reviewers are talking ad lib. Fair bit of repetition of points along with curious choice of adjectives. Try to prep what they are going to say a bit beforehand 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
