very disappointed in this car review, not because of the cars that they chose to test (i am a fan of both) but the way that the presenters reviewed them. it was as if they didn’t even want to be there or do the job they are paid to do. i normaly subscribe to various car magazines such as road & track, car and driver, evo and top gear. all which for the longest time have givin me a petrol heads view on cars but if this is how car and driver is going to do there reviews then i’m done with them.
LOL! I guess ol’ SimpleJoe is living up to his name!!! Know-it-all dumbasses are funny as shit!
to much bal bal bal. do the review! it now a children’s talent contest
this guy complains about fiat…. hahahaha i didnt see chrysler come out to well either in money wise
this guy really pisses me off
just about most cars in italy are smaller cause we dont have the roads like america or san francisco
bottom line: hes judging these cars with expectations of a high class pick up truck
Typical fucking American twats. Why do you want a black boring easy to use interior. The Abarth looks great and the Mini is just as good. It has a built in sat nav. Funky aeroplane switches. Get back to your shitty dull interior fords.
Great exterior footage of the cars and nice clips of the city (San Francisco). Thanks for the honest review on preferences between the Mini and Fiat.
what kind of idiot would complain about the interior design of the MINI? it’s a MINI Cooper for fucks sake! theyre supposed to be funky! theyre supposed to be a little out of the box! thats what MINIs are all about!
Bitches about the interior of the Mini and the Fiat then whines that he wants an automatic climate control….jeeeesus.
They’re just really boring sarcastic reviewers.
Noise is one of the best things about this car, thats not a compliment. By the way, noise sucks.
welcome to the age of the coffee cup car.
Piano Pedals lol
Both cars r gay
Can you guys find a pair of more dull, mundane, monotonous speakers ! There is no interaction between the viewers and the spokes persons, atleast pretend like you enjoy your job
For fuck’s sake! Learn how to pronounce Abarth. Drove me nuts.
Mini for men fiat for women
hell yes. go mini!
Everyone is a fucking whiner. Starting with these two guys in the video followed by everyone else in the comments section. Calm – the fuck – down!
Terrible review, who put those morons on the show. Clueless maggots, when would Americans learn to pronounce international words: A-Bart- this is not Bart Simpsons you douches. Carlo Abarth FTW
calm yourself kid, you called me a faggot first, I will no longer respond to your trolling
Stating I’m a little faggot, that is so relevant to the video..
ok big deal what does that have to do with this video?
I’m a little faggot that can bench 100kg.
Also you’re*
you thought you knew how to pronounce it but you proved your a little faggot who can’t say shit
you just said exactly what he just did you fucking retard, fucking derp
and then you say its 2012, wow just really ultimate level of knowing the year, such a cunt
