Matt could quite easily become a new face for top gear and I believe it would bring the show back to its former glory

[golach]

Mat is the reason CarWoW is so popular. He's a natural.

[just.for.the.downshifts]

Mat is so honest and off the cuff. His personality is such a breathe of fresh air.

[jh]

He really does seam like a genuine guy. Down to earth and adds a little fun. I like that he was told he could never be an auto journalist and then just proved them wrong. Always a good watch. He deserves every success

[Malte]

I believe that Mat could be the only person able to return Top Gear to its former greatness. Of course no one could really predict how that would go, but it would certainly be the only thing to make me come back to watching it. Just imagine Mat going on those Top Gear special/ Grand Tour style adventures; i would be sooo happy about that, but even the regular episodes would probably be a blast to watch.

[jpinternational]

What a great interview with Mat. Comes across as such an enthusiastic journalist.

[pauldavies]

Honestly the biggest selling point for CarWow's YouTube channel is that Matt is funny, a bit rude sometimes and very personable. He's a normal quirky human being and I think viewers can relate to him. I certainly can!

[macaron]

Carwow is by a margin the most consistent car reviewer in the English speaking world. If they have a full review up for a car and filmed in the UK, I KNOW for a fact what will be tested and reviewed in the video. Alot of car websites and reviewers are inconsistent with what they show and how in depth they go in the review. I live in America and If I'm looking at a car that's also sold in the UK, I trust carwow to give me the most information on it.

[juxy]

I told myself that 1hr was too long for YouTube but then this proved me wrong. Watched it all in a sitting.
I can't pinpoint why but I just loved it all.
Matt has an interesting personality, one I was raised to think of as "unserious" but I watch almost every Car Wow video.
If the world were filled with people like me, it'd be a boring place to live in.

[eddiehaug]

Great interview, Mat seems a very down-to-earth, nice bloke. Insightful in a very simple, regular folks way.

[Hustwick]

I'm really pleased that Matt's opinion of Kia and Hyundai have changed. They're on fire at the moment. That was a great interview. Can't believe that it was over an hour.

[kirikanjau]

my love for cars was ignited by watching his videos...from his days on Carbuyer to carwow

[SgtRosier]

I met mat on the tube once and we had a great chat. A proper nice guy and really down to earth

[Diptentu]

If Matt leaves carwow it won't survive

[IamCoastcoast]

Matt just seems like a proper genuine person, but is obviously very thought through and logical!

[thecrazysharma]

for me Matt from Carwow and Doug from Doug DeMuro are the only 2 reviewers that bring value without being extra flashy. Love them

[FlipFlopPsycho]

Great interview Curtis and Mark, loved it! 👍🏽

[benjamin-johnsen]

Ok, so now I understand why Mazda and Carwow don’t have that great friendship…

[raymck]

His car enthusiasm is infectious, I have watched him from the start and it's great to see how well he doing.

[kinkong]

The car Matt Drove was a McMurtry car a one-seater hypercar which has a vacuum system which sucks itself to the road at all times so it has maximum downforce he drove it in 7.6 seconds to a quarter mile it broke the hill climb record as well. It's an amazing car and you can buy one for the road the suction is adjustable and the power is as well you can dial in the HP upto a 1000 hp or you can dial it down for road use.
