Video reviews by customers who are not forum members

That Ferrari has seen some hard miles. It also looks surprisingly dated, especially the interior, next to the clean, sleek Emira. Yeah, it would have been nice to have known what they were saying.

Oh man... You weren't kidding! 😄

Also, the host of this video seems like one of those naturally-funny people, the kind where everything they do or say makes you laugh. Seeing him trying to get the Ferrari's frunk closed was hilarious. :p

In my Youtube feed tonight. Video shows installation of PPF and associated prep. I can't believe how bad the paintwork was with swirls and holograms, I wonder how it ended up in such bad shape?

Simple: softer modern paints and poor finishing work.

Wait till you see the poor paint adhesion:

Holy moly... so essentially pulling off PPF might take the paint down with it as well?😬
 
Idk, found on facebook, I'll leave it for a separate thread someone can start, I don't want that topic overtaking this video review forum.

Another one from my Youtube feed this morning. It is in Portugese, but the Youtube subtitle translation delivers some often amusing results. It correctly interprets the exhaust sound as music! Very well shot video.
 
When I pulled the factory Lotus PPF (Starshield, technically installed at port) off of my Elise after ~12 years, some paint came with it. requiring a front end re-spray. I never figured out if this was just an Elise issue, an issue with waiting far too many years to replace, or an issue with the PPF having been applied before the paint was fully cured. Maybe a combination of all of the above.
 
Hey @VL3X or @supersix, how about combining this with the other really long video review thread?

That review index thread seems more suited to automotive journalist reviews, but I'm open to merging it if enough people want to post all Emira videos in that one thread.
 
This came up in my Youtube feed, I am glad I haven't gone for ice grey leather as I was considering this originally(see around timestamp 9:00 on the video, the reviewer mistakenly refers to the interior as silver).
This guys is a clown. 'Best shifter I've ever driven' The shifter may be the worst thing in this great car. Why embellish??
