Rather than simply post this guy's reviews in video threads, this deserves a topic of its own.

Check out the rest of his videos for more riotously hilarious stuff.

It's all about the Toyota Tacoma video. That's my favorite one and he said that he is planning on returning to that type of humor. The S2000 one was pretty good but it still felt off balance humor wise. Can't wait to see him go ape shit again haha.

The latest one (Saturn L-Series) was a little disappointing. It lacked the absurdist humor of his other videos, and leads me to think that this channel is suffering from a premature case of YouTube Celebrity Disorder, à la Regular Ordinary Swedish Meal Time or HowToBasic.

I like to think that perhaps he is now on meds for his insanity and it is calming him down. We need to convince him to toss the meds so we can get some crazy videos again. shifty2.gif TRACK DAY BRO.

Weighing only 2500lb doesn't hurt it either, especially compared to the heftier Focus.

I found curb weight to be 2,720 lbs.

Not too surprising with the torque it usually beats FRS on the track.

I was referring to the normal Fiesta. It would have been nice though if we had been offered the 2-door Fiesta ST instead of strictly getting the heavier 4-door.

The Fiesta looks like a fun little pocket rocket.

Got a Fiesta as a rental once. Quite liked it, especially that its USB port recognized my iPhone without issue and just worked as I expected. I had originally plugged it in just to charge it only for the system to sync instead.

Had no trouble navigating California freeways. No complaints.

hmm I guess 2500 is considered pretty light now. 8th gen corollas were 2500 lbs as well with more power than the base fiesta. Early toyota echos seem insane now with curb weights at around 2000lbs and no power steering.

Maybe it was a Canadian thing. The base had power steering as an option. USA also didn't get the hatchback.

"However, it did not have power steering, power windows, power locks or power anything"

maybe it was related to the echo cup races as well.

Actually... in the spirit of the echo cup, I guess we now have the Spec Micra races this year.

Uhm, what?

Power steering was standard on the Echo from day ONE.

That said - my 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage weighs in at a paltry 1,920 lbs. Suck it, JDM fanboys! awesome.gif

What happened to the Genesis Coupe?
