James May absolutely roasts YouTubers for the cars they drive DRIVETRIBE, YouTubeThe Grand Tour\u2019s James May knows a fair bit about the vehicle industry and after being exposed to some of the cars top YouTubers are driving around in right now, it\u2019s fair to say he wasn\u2019t impressed. The former Top Gear co-host has enjoyed tremendous success in reviewing different inventions in the past, whether that\u2019s top of the range vehicles in his TV shows or something more simple like breaking down the world\u2019s best toys in Toy Stories. Clearly, he\u2019s got a good eye for what works and what doesn\u2019t. Now, during a video uploaded to the DRIVETRIBE YouTube channel on March 8, the successful presenter and journalist went through different content creators one by one and looked at the cars they had bought \u2013 including The Stradman, Mr JWW and more. Some left him reeling off a scathing review of their selections, while others saw him scratching his head. May has reviewed some of the world\u2019s most popular classic vehicles in the past, but this time it was all about seeing what his verdict was on the stars of the future \u2013 people who create content online and get paid for it. While there were many names included in the list, his most brutal roasting was definitely targeted at Adam LZ with a little tongue-in-cheek comment. Adam has over 2.74 million subscribers on YouTube and regularly posts video on the platform drifting around in new cars, some of which are part of his personal collection. May said: \u201cOh yes, Adam LZ\u2019s Nissan 370Z. Now, he\u2019s put a twin turbo something or other in this and I think it develops something like 850 or 900 horse power he claims. Has he been put on the lie detector? Does he know it\u2019s true?\u201d He added: \u201cI think it\u2019s nearly killed him a couple of times. It looks like it should kill him. It looks like he might be grateful for it actually. Yeah, but no. The bonnet doesn\u2019t fit, the hood I should say, never have your engine exposed.\u201d The former Top Gear man was slightly kinder with other content creators, though, but not all. He described Seen Through Glass\u2019 Ferrari 360 as one of those made by the manufacturer that really looks good in red, while describing Supercars of London\u2019s Lamborghini Murcielago as \u201ctoo fat and too big.\u201d James May has been quite vocal about his concerns on many things in the car industry of late, including electric vehicles, which he says he\u2019s a huge advocate of because they are helping the environment. However, battery issues \u2013 he believes \u2013 may he holding them back. He never held back his views on any of these YouTuber cars, though, in a revealing video. Will any of the creators respond by picking a car he actually likes in the future or perhaps even have him on their channel? We\u2019ll have to wait and see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
