Glen when I watch your monthly review videos I am always hoping to hear specific experiences with the car and how you feel about the experience. For example, did you drive with passengers in the back seat, and were they comfortable? How is the interior holding up and what have you done deal with wear and tear and maintenance if anything? Have you gone on any road trips and have they been fun, how did the car handle? are you considering any mods for the car? Do you ever need to put stuff in the car and is there enough space in the trunk/back for what you're doing? Are you getting a lot of attention in the car, do people notice the color? Have there been any mechanical issues with the car and what did you do about it?

Basically how is living with the car. Most reviewers get a little bit of track time and some mountain roads, they give their opinion and then they move on to the next vehicle they are reviewing. You have a unique opportunity to do a long term ownership review and what it's like to live with the car and enjoy it as an owner.

Usually you kind of just go over the basics. What is the car, when did you buy it, how much it costs you etc. I think you should talk more about your experiences with the car as an owner.

Error... M2 does NOT have the S55 engine that Glen says it has early in the video. That engine is relegated to the M3/M4.. We have a beefed up N55 engine.

Yes, I know. Slip of the tongue, that's what I get for doing voice over at 3am.

I wrote that in the comments of the video that it was a slip of the tongue.
