The truth about automotive reviews,...

[machoba]

hehe. di kaya meron din ditong mga users na nag register para magbigay ng gud points sa mga car companies nila...

the best pa din ang may kilala sa mekaniko sa casa... also, wag ka bili agad ng car na bagong labas... ala pa mashado nakakaalam ng mga sakit niyan.

hehe opinyon lang po.

especially topgear, ung sa UK, matinding review, muhkang di sila sponsored ng car industry, and thats what i like about it.. honestly, dito sa atin kasi, i can feel na no "true review"...well cant blame them... wala pa ko napanonood na local tv auto show na magreview-ala UK topgear.

I love this show... how they trash sports car over the Mitsu Evo. Just like the past weekend I just watch how they trashed the Ford pickup and saying things that I never have imagined. Made me say "bakit di ko naisip un?" or "oo nga noh tama cya".


Sana meron ding ganun d2....

Kaso lang writers/producers love their advertisers more than their readers/viewers.

gusto ko sana maging motoring journalist, pero, baka wala kumuha sa akin,e....

kung may gagawa ng local motoring show ala UK top-gear, count me in!

lets compare them all, including the used and the converted.

hey, hey sama mo ko dyan Sir always kahit yung test driver lang sa track...:car: Fan of Top gear myself even if most consider Clarkson as an idiot, I still prefer his slightly British' in-your-face spontaneity.
I'm bias towards reading Top Gear, Evo, and Car, kicka$$ spreads and factual reviews great as resource and for collecting. I still buy the foreign edition though over their local version for the superior choice of articles.

akin ang long drives and out of town trips and reviews! pati na din mga converted and used car segment!

If it's Japanese Car of the Year, it could be very good or utter rubbish.

Hehehe...one funny thing about local motoring journalists here is that they don't know how to be objective.

Topping my list of dumbos is this Ron delos Reyes and Rey Butch Gamboa. They even had the gall to put up a group, Society of Phil. Motoring Journalists (SPMJ), which they add to their names, ala graduate degree. It really pisses me off, kasi kung magsalita, daig pa si Jimmy Santos. They're really better read than seen or heard. I doubt if they even know what they're talking about when writing those so-called reviews

I haven't read any of their articles, so I'm in no position to gauge their writings one way or otherwise. Do they have any articles online we can glance at?

[oldblue]

so is this another article or a confession?

Butch Gamboa writes a regular column for the Philippine Star (dont know the title), but he allots space for his motoring "exploits"...he also hosts a weekly show "Auto Focus" ata

Si Ron delos Reyes naman is a contributor to motoring sections of the major dailies. May TV show din, Auto Review. But believe me, you wouldn't want to watch both, they suck big time. Panay junket pa tong dalawang ito c/o auto manufacturers, kaya you will always hear praises from them about their sponsors' cars
