Wow, that 88 is rough. Looks good driving down the road, but the interior and engine compartment are completely trashed. The narrator sounds like he's a burn out.

Entertaining writer and good film maker, I’ll give him that.
Surprised he never mentioned the new ultra-harsh ride that the C4 introduced. As one reviewer wrote in 84; ‘you can feel it when you roll over a dollar bill’.

It's too bad he reviewed this C4, automatic, not the best of shape. I love his reviews and watch his videos for the comedy and information. Disappointed on this video, but based on what he was given he could only do so much.

That's what they do. They seem to review cars in their most "stereo typical" state, and sort of talk about the car in that light. They love to show the car's peeling clear coat, beat up carpet, cracked dash, beat weather stripping, "ashed" center console, etc. Dumb.

Too new edged humor for me. Apparently too clever too. "Witty" is different these days.

As you pointed out above... This is a "car Guy" that knows just enough about cars to touch the sweet spot(in the know) If he was real good, he'd get an '84 c4.

This was recorded when he was trying a more edgy approach. He dose focus on regular type cars not the best of the best. If you watch all of his corvette videos c3-c7 he makes it a point to show that for the price a C4 is the way to go getting you into good performance cars. Personally this is my favorite from him if you look past the car itself and more look at the generation he dose. When I take my 90 to Carlisle I'm going to see if he wants to do a new vid with a 6spd in better condition.
