Michelins are notorious for running wide anyways so a 265 PS5 could be the equivalent of a 275 or 285 from another manufacturer.

The PS5 and PS5S’ are supposedly really sexy looking too. Another reason to hold out for them if I can.

Edit: Watched the whole video. The only thing he got right was the CEL issue.
Otherwise it was like watching Doug DeMuro, the only difference was that he actually bought it. Personally I feel bad for the person buying it from him. Frankly, he/she is getting an abused car and it probably smells like BO now too.

He bought the car simply for content, because the car he wanted in Jan was not yet available. All of this I knew, which is why I kind of dogged him. He doesn’t mention me by name, but the ‘soulless’ segment was about my response to the comment.
Aside from the auto-folding mirrors, I obviously do not agree with his ‘review’.
NOTE: He thinks the transmission is a ZF. WTF dude?! You can’t do simple research?
If there is one thing we can all agree on is our dislike for DD. I present you with this YouTube find …. Enjoy

LOL! It’s true though.

Crazy part is he spent last week's drag racing video constantly repeating how very, very good the IS 500 is
... and then this week complains that the car doesn't stand out in black when he could've got it in Infrared or USB instead.

I couldn't make it past a few minutes, and not because he was criticizing the car. I can take criticism, it's just he sounds like a guy who doesn't really know, but hears what other people may have said and just repeats it.

I would say 90% of his complaints were simply cosmetic to his personal tastes. If you want brashness off the assembly line, then get a Dodge.
As I told him on Brian Masker’s channel, he’s not a real journalist. All he does is drag race cars, what exactly does anyone learn from him? Most of the time you’re in traffic, so a good reviewer will focus on the widely applicable dynamics.
The idiot actually proved Lexus’ Ethos to be spot on.

Which is why I won't watch to give him a click. Those aren't reviewers, they're parrots. Same IQ and everything.
