    Mr Regular was recently in LA and got to do a POV drive with a silver S54 M Coupe.


    Here is the YouTube video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h349iuCkQD4


    And his associated article on Road & Track:http://www.roadandtrack.com/car-cult...s-bmw-m-coupe/

    Regular Car POV Drive of my S54!

    So I managed to catch the Regular Car Reviews guys when they were in LA a few weeks ago, they didnt have time for a full on review (which they mentioned takes 3 hours and lots of planning) but they did manage to put together a POV drive and a road and track article!

    Check it out here!

    Originally he did a bit of a longer drive, but he had his camera in the wrong mode and it didnt work, so the video in the article is the second take.

    Sorry things got a bit messy, I merged the threads so discussion could be contained to one thread and it made things a bit weird (I tried).

    Looks like a lot of fun, I do miss when RCR was a bit more "silly" with their reviews though.

    Usually when he does a POV, he makes a car review with the footage. Any chance this will be the case?

    That's a shame. He has is funny to watch I wish he was excited about BMW's as he is about all cars.

    He did a review of the E36 M3. It wasn't kind. He seems a little hung up on BMWs being "yuppy cars".

    He was more making fun of it because of it being slammed. He had a positive review for the e30.

    Good seeing press on the MZ, especially one of our own, and I enjoy and appreciate a bit of an avant-garde gonzo writing style. Not sure the author succeeded in it, as it felt a bit contrived.
