Amazing line up of M cars at the individual studio !!

Gota say the donington looks great with the M performance parts !

Good for him. He has good reviews and very interesting material. He is also very collaborative and down-to-earth with his YT fans.

His laughter keep my eardrums honest, but other than that, I've enjoyed his videos.

I find Shmee annoying and all of his videos are just repetitive and boring at this point


Only good part of the video is we good a good look at some cool colors and the competition wheels

I think he managed his life good as far as money goes. Some people including me will never have what he has. It's just respectful.

Yes, and it's not like he's a spoiled rich kid who was given everything. He used to have a job in investment banking and walked out one day to YouTube fulltime and has built a following.

Gotta respect the guy, after all, we are all talking about him on this thread, and even if you have a negative opinion of him or his videos, it means at some point you watched his videos.

Respect or not, he started on third base. The number of followers seems to qualify him as an automotive authority which is BS. There is no talent, whether he has any driving skills or any deep technical knowledge of the car he is reviewing. Hell, he doesn't even seem to know much about the M5 lineage. I just find it really hard to like him, why he has that amount of followers is beyond me. Most of us here are car people and humble etc., big deal if he is nice at car meets.

I think you missed the point of what I was saying. Even if you dislike him, you've seen enough of his videos to form that opinion. You're equally part of the reason he has so many followers. Haters are still viewers, just maybe not subscribers.

He doesn't claim to be the authority on stuff, I think he just tries to give the average person a bit more information, which is what pretty much all YouTubers do. These forums are certainly better for more in-depth knowledge.

I'm unclear as to why you say he started on third base? I believe he made money in finance before starting his YouTube platform, but that is not really a free head start. I'm sure the dude had to work pretty hard in i-banking to save up all of his money for his "head start."

I'm not trying to be rude or anything, just trying to understand why you say he started on 3rd base...maybe you know something that I do not.

My post wasn't a direct response to yours, just continuing the convo. The third base comment comes from what I can gather, his father was well off. Shmee really didn't "struggle" on his journey to a self-made YouTube star in my opinion. We all have our opinions and the forum seems split whether they are pro Shmee or not. From the manufacturers pov it is probably the cheapest form of promotion possible, so I can see that angle.

It's called M Performance PRO spoiler - European stock shows 0, however I preordered one to mine m5. Should become avaiable with all of the rest carbon parts ( kidney grill and sidevents ) so probably late august

Interesting. Can you share the link you used to preorder ?

No link - just through dealership. They're able to put order on parts which stock shows "0" and once they get avaiable it gets shipped
