Good looking wheels!

Man, that title is so misleading. If you've driven both, you know they couldn't be further apart in personality.

GOLFFRR · 08-10-2022, 05:10 PM

not sure about hellcat, kinda of a random comparison. Side note who wouldn't want this car

COChris · 08-10-2022, 05:22 PM

Drove the Hellcat at Bondurant for the better part of a week. Wasn't too impressed (although they were detuned). I guess it's a fair comparison as BMW is a very different level of refinement and quality manufacturing vs. Dodge.

Anyone else can’t stand doug, his personality is bland , hard to look at , and just find his reviews so boring

You're telling me you don't want to hear what his Doug Score is?!

The title does not mean what you think it means.

Well you get a Doug score of precisely 0. 😂

Separately, I'm shocked to see Dougie's CS ratings against the Plaid's for Comfort and Quality.

aj_g80 · 08-10-2022, 06:46 PM

did he just say some have gotten 2.6 0-60 out of this?

I know that's the Car and Driver number but includes 1ft roll out. I've gotten 2.88 multiple times out of mine but with a lot of wheel spin. 2.7x or high 2.6x seems plausible to me.

Tesla plaid Beat an m5cs. Ok.
Two totally different cars for different customers.
Doug is a quirky dude, but at least he is lively unlike some other reviewers that are dead on their feet, without naming names

Just imagine, Doug and Shmee's genes mixed and a new breed of commentator created ....

The result: people stop buying cars altogether 😵&zwj;💫

Shmee gets so much hate, lol. I think it’s the punchable face and the intro. Honestly though, he’s pretty accurate and does his homework regarding details and specs. I also think he genuinely likes cars and tries to do a good job, which is more than I can say for many other YouTubers. I don’t love Shmee but I think he’s solid. He’s probably more tolerable than Jonny Lieberman for me.

Lmao

I have absolutely nothing against either Doug or Shmee. Like your good self, I think they are both very professional at what they do.

It's just the way that they do, what they do, which is sometimes off-putting - in a kind of a way when you run your finger nails on a classroom blackboard; it cuts through your soul and scars you for life 🤣🤣🤣

I drove my 2015 Hellcat Charger 65K miles and have driven my M5CS just over 4000 miles. The Hellcat is the strong big muscular fighter with a big bad right hand. The CS is a trained boxer with jabs, hooks, crosses, bodywork, footwork, and developed skills. BTW I really am enjoying this wonderful car BMW created.

No, you're definitely the first person who has ever mentioned this particular sentiment.
