Have we ever done an Oppo buyers' guide before?

When people post about their car, it seems like it’s pretty common for people to ask other Oppos what they should know before buying one. I know I’ve personally written a few explanations about what to know when shopping for an XJ8, and thought about just putting together a single post I could link to in the future. Now I’m thinking it would be kind of awesome if a lot of us just wrote up buyers’ guides for our cars and I just maintained an updated list of what guides have been published for what.

Would there be any interest in doing that? I mean, sure it’s probably not anything that you couldn’t get from any particular make’s enthusiast forum, but I feel like people here tend to be somewhat more realistic about their car’s faults (e.g., one of my favorite threads of all time is on Jaguarforums.com, where a bunch of people got into an argument about whether the X308 is the most* or least aerodynamic sedan ever made and whether it’s even possible to hit the speed limiter**).

Even with cars that multiple people own, I think it could be cool to have different guides with different perspectives.

*It is not.

We should just link directly to the Regular Car Review video for each car. That is an excellent buyers guide for a Miata.

That’s awesome. I don’t know why that never gets bumped up, I never saw it before.
