Do they ever consider journalists know a lot more about cars than they do and that the opinion of Matt Farah isn't his individual opinion but a collective group opinion where he is merely the spokesperson for? Would you really feel better had Chris Harris or Jeremy Clarkson said the same thing?

Take a listen to this episode of the smoking tire podcast with Jonny Lieberman and Carlos Lago from Motor Trend so you can learn yourselves a little about how the industry works and how journalism isn't merely to validate the internet's narrow-minded opinion. These guys drive hundreds of cars a year and they usually agree with one another and they definitely know a lot more than you or I about the subject.

TST Podcast #108 - Beardtacular | The Smoking Tire
I don't dislike Matt Farah for the fiesta/m3 video, I just dislike his comments and opinions in general. I completely agree with his comment that the ST is more fun than the m3, I know I can't drive the m3 anywhere near its full potential. Probably one of the only things he's ever said that I can appreciate/agree with.
