Thanks man!! Actually, about half-way through it, I decided I should never be in front of the camera again... This project developed a huge respect for car show presenters for me. Much bigger than I had for them before.

Good script; excellent production values. You can now send this to local TV stations (and Motorweek and The Velocity Channel) and who knows... they might call you in for an interview.

Thanks so much everyone!

Shelldude, I wished I had a crew when I was making this so it didn't have to suffer from so many issues (I might be noticing those more than most since I've seen every frame of the thing over and over), but...

New Yorker, I WAS actually considering submitting this to bigger places and hope they see some kind of potential in it. Besides wanting to do a bigger and better review of some other car (ie. having a budget and a crew of more than 3 including myself!), I wondered if it would attract the attention of the big guns so I could direct something there. I doubt I'm presenter material, and on the production front, I'm not sure it's THAT good...

Still, it's good to know it's not laughably bad!! I'll have to boldly reach out to some production places

Great job on this! I, like you could not afford one back in 2004. Finally got mine last June so I am going on one year ownership. So I can totally relate to how you feel and you captured it so well. THanks for sharing and yes, This is now how I will explain to people why I love this car!
