I expect more FTOAU cameos in coming episodes.

And less dubstep.

Well I liked it :D

At first I was quite jelly that you were getting the 300zx for $2k.
But really, I like the nissan with targa top too :D

The only thing was I feel that you should have put up the specs/details of the nissan NX.

You did better than Top Gear Australia, but not as good as Top Gear UK.

Yeah, I agree with Phil, brings consistency into the video for the audience. I also recommend changing up the intro a bit, less pixelated transitions and mode fades and not bouncing over the screen just slide it across the bottom or something. Personally what I like to do is use a horizontal linear blur, pan it to the center quickly, then slow it down with no blur to pan across the screen and then use the horizontal linear blur to pan it out the other side of the screen real quick. So the effect comes out to be text scrolling into view quickly, slowing down to be read and then scrolling out of view quickly to be replaced by another bit of text.

I didn't go completely over the car because I'm showcasing it in the next video after Fraz goes over it, I was trying to glorify the 300 ;)

I'm still learning premiere pro and after effect, and didn't have a enough footage for a propped intro, that will be changed for next video and onwards. I do appreciate the feedback, I really do guys

Also looking at a second series for showcasing friends rides, and getting insight into why cars, what they mean to them, or why a train type of car. And I don't just mean ftos, but they will be heavily featured, but anything with a motor. If anyone wants to chat to me about that, flick me an inbox, when I get it sorted, I'd like to feature all the cars on here if possible!

But for now I'm on holidays. I'm off to the Bavarian bier cafe to lose my brain cells.

I'm also trying to make it not like mighty car mods in presentation or editing. That's a big thing, I'm trying to make it my own not a copy

At the end of the day making your editing look similar to MCM isn't going to be a bad thing because no one is going to peg you as trying look like MCM unless you're following every exact detail they're trying to do. For example... hey guys today me and marty got two new cars that we're going to mod and race at the dragstrip because nissan ftw and (insert honda joke here). Making series about modding or working on a project car won't immediately shove you into wannabe MCM territory, don't worry about it. People will only get that feeling if you are copying MCM's content, not their editing :)
