I promise you that ProAir flights out of Detroit City Airport to Orlando, Florida when the airline existed was without question the most ghetto rinky dink ride ever. I remember booking huge groups headed for cruise ships for $59 each ticket (my cost) but I’d usually at least go for $119 and pocket $60 profit/ea. What I didn’t tell them was that if you HAD to be in Orlando that day for your cruise, well don’t fly ProAir. Maybe a 1 in 3 chance your flight isn’t late or cancelled. I was like 19 and I had a YZF-R1 to buy so if cheap ass hell flights (even with my markup) wasn’t a clue then you don’t want to know anyway.

I own an RS, I'm just over 6ft but i'm thin. So the seats fit me pretty well. I have a 6ft4in friend who was giddy to check it out but the second he sat in the car it looked like the hulk trying to squeeze into a mini, the seats aren't for people with large frames Keep seeing people complain on the ride quality but maybe it's more the roads than the ride? I'm in australia and have driven many high-end cars well outside the RS pay grade and the ride on comfort and race is really good. I think there is better of course, but I can't understand the hate unless the roads are genuine dogshit

This is almost sad to see/hear. Matt was part of the reason I pulled the trigger on buying a Focus RS. He's a couple inches taller than me and seeing that he fit comfortably in there was a selling point. Yes if you have it on the track suspension setting on public streets it's a bit jarring to say the least, but the normal setting really isn't that bad. I've been daily driving mine at 5'11" and averaging about 300lbs for years now with no complaints. Even took it to east Texas and back from Southern California. Over three years and just shy of 60k miles and it's still arguably the best car I've had.

Bought it partly because Matt Farah had one lol I thought down the road I’d get new suspension but yeah not spend $16k to update it. I’ll just live with the ride.

Couldn’t agree more. Drove a friends Focus RS and immediately was like “WTF is wrong with this seating position”. The lower part of the seat was angled completely wrong and non-adjustable. I immediately vowed to never drive another Focus RS. Also, just sold my 718. Bought it without a test drive. Really enjoyed it for a few years, but never got used to how soft the suspension was and the sub-par interior materials, not to mention all the squeaks and rattles that should not exist in a $70k car. Also, couldn’t believe how many standard options that exist in other manufacturers, but Porsche doesn’t include. Seriously, Porsche is a decade behind on standard options vs the rest of the world.

I also bought the RS. It was gone in 6 months. Fun car, rode like crap but I constantly hit my knees on the lower steering column. I miss that car and like to buy another but those seats need to go in the trash and 18 inch wheels are required

I bought a 1977 Jeep CJ-5 when I was 15 in 2010, the frame was rotted to hell but I still drove it around the yard, until one day the rear part of the frame finally snapped while on a snowbank half left it stranded in my front yard & driveway lmao Maybe I got my $200 worth, but I only got $150 in scrap so I definitely lost money 😅

Buys a car with a factory tuned track suspension with bolstered seats meant for a someone with a 34” waist at most… complains the car sucks because it rides rough and the seats uncomfortable… yaaaaa its not the car that sucks.

But you don't need a super hard suspension, people think you need a super stiff suspension so they sell them with it. Race cars have very stiff suspension but on a race track it is smooth

@@joshuagibson2520 yes, not for the entire value, but a huge part of it. It was an 81inch wingspan AT-6 Texan with a Saito 1.5 cubic inch four stroke engine, retractable landing gear and upgraded (new) electronics. It sat unflown in my cousins basement for 30 years and then I fixed it up and flew it and then traded it for my 1990 rust free Mariner Blue Miata in August of '19. Loved that car, fixed it up and it was so nice, but I'm an Ogre, lol. At 6'5" I fit a lot better in the Mini...

I’ve had my DeLorean 7 years, and I’ve never had an issue and the car has been one of my most reliable. It drove from Pittsburgh to Springfield, IL and back with no issues. Sometimes people forget it’s a 40 year old car and needs regular maintenance. I’m a fan of Matt but I do think he had higher expectations of the DeLorean than what he received. Hope he can have a more positive experience with them in the future.
