I thought something like that immediately. He did say his bud was a Ferrari expert. So maybe his presence is just coincidence. But I agree , Doug makes the vidz what they are👍
Doug has some friends. Good ones who love cars. He has come into some money now and is enjoying his channel more now than ever. The garage videos and now this are proof he’s having tons of fun and experimenting. Doug’s not going anywhere. But he’s welcome to share the fun with his friends.
I agree, it’s fine for Doug to have some fun with his guests but they should just be guests (unless Doug gets more interesting friends). This particular guy has been making too many cameos and he’s terrible.
Yeah it's like the script was written for Doug and spoken by an AI. I don't dislike the guy, but I'd like to see him with his own personality in his speaking parts.
kenan actually is very knowledgeable in cars. I bought my 79’ Weber carb Ferrari 308 GTS from him where he was working and we talked cars for over 2 hours. He is a real car enthusiast person. It’s actually the 308 pictured in this video. It’s been flawless to this day and I’m so happy that I bought it when I did. It’s been super reliable for me the last 5 years.
I owned a 328 for 10yrs and it was fantastic. I drove it all the time and it never let me down. I even got caught in the snow once and the car perfomed better than most. When driving regularly they are very reliable. If I get another one it would be a GTB, the GTS has too much cowl shake. Thanks for the video, it brought back fond memories.
Ken did a great job. He reviewed in Doug’s style, but I feel like Doug’s style is his and hearing another voice describe it in his manner is a little weird. I would prefer Doug do the reviews and add more talks with Ken, Hoovie, and others.
Doug's the kind of guy who doesn't understand why anyone would want a tiny smuggling compartment next to the passenger side back window in their Ferrari, in the 1980s.
This is my favorite car, bar none. There's just something about it. It has perfect balance in my eyes - It's powerful but not a numbers car; pretty but muscular; old enough to be a sports car and not a supercar, but new enough to have some mechanical tech like 32 valves and proper injection. It's so great to see it here. I want an '88 or '89 so bad I could cry.
Well if you ever get one let’s just hope that you are not very tall. I remember falling in love with the 308 myself watching Magnum PI back in the 80’s but I also could not help but notice that they never put the top on and that Tom Selleck’s head stuck up several inches above the roof line. And since we are both about the same height I knew at once that if I ever owned a 308 or a 328 that I would never be able to drive it with the top on. Of course, today I would much prefer some of the newer models of Ferrari, which hopefully are designed with taller drivers in mind.
I have one and am 6'2". I drive fine with top on. Apparently my height is more in the legs than torso. The leg room is actually pretty good with seat shifted back.
Love you, Doug. Been a huge fan of your content for years. With the utmost respect, I wasn’t a fan of having someone else participate in your videos. Purely a piece of feedback for you to consider when making future videos
This is one of my favorite Ferrari models! This car is the main reason I watched Magnum P.I. as a child. Speaking of which, it's still mind boggling that Tom Selleck being 6'4" managed to pretzel himself into these things.
Interesting side note: The producers initially went to Porsche, and asked them to use the 928 as the star car for Magnum P.I. But they needed it to be a convertible or at least a targa because Hawaii. Porsche rejected this opportunity, and thus fame for the 328, failure for the 'other' -28.
They had to take the seat mounts off of the seat and mount the seat directly to the floor for him. That's how they created the extra space for him. Of course he never had the top on, so that helped too.
I think Magnum PI used the older Ferrari 308, not a 328. I do remember that he had to have the targa model with the roof always off because he was too tall to fit inside the coupes. Either way, if I lived in Hawai'i, I'd want a convertible too.
I own a 328 GTS. Owning a Ferrari is like dating a temperamental Italian super model who gets sick a lot and is always in a bad mood. But . . . when she feels good and wants to play, you have a great time!
Dougs the kinda guys to give love and support to his friends, so were the kinda people to give it right back. It's cool to see Kennan back, and even cooler he gets to give us a tour of something
@@vladvulcanHe was in one video a couple weeks ago. One of the ones just discussing cars, not an actual review. The discussion are honestly just as entertaining.
great to see Doug do a 328 video. Ive owned one for going on 4 years now and while I only take it out once every 3 weeks or so it has been a very reliable car. Like many old Ferraris though I'm surprised he didn't hit on the wait till the temp is fully warm before shifting into 2nd gear. This car has plenty of torque so first to third is a non issue though.
My guess as to the purpose of the gas flap is so you can rest the gas pump handle on the car without it scratching your paint, although it does seem to also provide some gas drip prevention as well.
I think the side window strakes unlocking and opening up is more than just symmetry. It seems like it was also so you could clean those windows. It's a lot easier to clean the outside of the window with the strake panel open than closed.
In my opinion, these Old School Ferraris (until 2003) are way cooler than these 2010s and 2020s Ferraris. Also, it's cool for Doug to let a friend participate on a car review
Amen. Modern Ferraris are wonders of technology and engineering -- and have no soul. Who gives a flip if shifts are measured in milliseconds when you're touring a B road with the top off? Give me a clutch pedal and hydraulic (or even better, manual) steering any day.
Sadly this applies to most modern cars. They're all technically advanced, yes; but they've also lost the distinctiveness of cars of pre 2000. You would never confuse a Mercedes with a BMW. Or a Ferrari with a Lamborghini.
As a Ferrari enthusiast I would agree, but..., with perhaps one exception being the 2013 458 Speciale, which is arguably the perfect Ferrari. I fell in love with Ferrari when I first saw one in person as a kid; my dentist owned a 308GTB. I was in awe when I approached it, and every day since then that car has been a love affair that my wife is fine with.

The Red 328 GTS was in the Eddie Murphy movie “Beverly Hills Cop 2” from 1987. The 308 GTS on the other hand sounded a bit better and was on Magnum P.I and it’s like driving a Go-Cart faster Miata with a V8. It handles like it’s on rails. Much better looking obviously:) 🇮🇹
@Kathi Jordan you know there are three places on Oahu that rent Ferraris and not one of them has a 308?? Talk about a missed opportunity. Especially considering how much cheaper they are than modern ones. One lady said I was about the tenth person to ask for one and said she was going to look into getting one. One of them didn’t even know why I’d ask for that specific car! I couldn’t believe that. How do you live on Oahu and deal in Ferraris and not even know what Magnum drove?
Very cool car and it was fun to see Doug do a team-up with this review but I am still anxiously waiting for him to someday review the 288 GTO. I know they are extremely rare and worth millions but I feel like he'll have the opportunity one day. Next to the 355, I think the 288 GTO is the most beautiful of all Ferraris.
@@MultiWalrus1 I purchased a UK car magazine on the 288 GTO in very late 1984 when it had just been released ! That magazine is now a collector's item and sells for $ US200. My mom accidentally threw it out . . . Nooo! It gets even more weird. Initialook I got called a liar at school as nobody believed Ferrari would make a turbo road car, yet alone a twin turbo V8. In Australia our school holidays are from mid-December to often tge first few days of February due to it being summer. One honest guy, when school returned came up apologised and showed me pictures of him in a 288 GTO. He want to Italy in December '84 and obviously came back by February 1985. His uncle had purchased a 288 GTO ! ! ! NO one could believe it. He told us that it was the best experience in his life especially when his uncle let him drive it. Unfortunately, Australian road rules prohibited Left Hand Drive ( Lhd) cars and the luxury car taxes were brutal. E,g. the Testarossa & Countach cost $AU500K OR $US380,000 by 1985. Australian luxury car tax was 70 % of the sales price on a luxury car. This guy was devastated as his dad wanted to import a Ferrari 288 GTO. They were comfortably middle class but not outright wealthy. They purchased a Ferrari 328 GTS as it was near impossible to obtain a 328 GTB in Oz. NOTE - To date there are only about 5 or less Ferrari 328 GTB's that are RHD and they sell $US150,000 over a GTS model. I know as a close friend of mine tied to purchase one 9 years ago and the owner wouldn't budge on his $AU500k asking price. It was also a very rare blue with white interior model. Dohhhh . .. again.
Well there it is Doug’s got his ambitions set high. The Doug Demuro car review universe. I have a feeling we will start seeing new presenters as Doug transitions to just doing the cars he wants. Looking forward to the new talent.
This was the exotic car that I "imprinted" on, being a kid of the '80s, watching Magnum all the time. Just as when I first looked at it decades ago, I can't look at it too long. I can't soak in its lines or its color too much. It has a look that I have yet to tire of. I think it will always be this way with this car.
Doug, this is a cool review to finally see! My uncle had one in this exact spec from brand new up here in Toronto. He used this, and his '87 Grand National to tour and win audio competitions all over the place, and they became famous cars in the car audio industry back when it was still a thing. It's definitely a car I'd love to get my hands on one day for the nostalgia. Great video as always!
It's no big deal man, I think he's just making a video with his friend to change things up a bit. I'd be doing the same thing if I were him. It can be fun to work with your friends and Doug is clearly trying to enjoy things a bit now.
Such a cool car! The plastic flap under the fuel cap is mainly there so the handle of the fuel pump doesn't scratch the paint. I have one on my Porsche 944 as well for the same purpose. It doesn't work that well and so I have a load of scratches on the body panel underneath the fuel cap, but its better than nothing.
Growing up my dentist had one of these. Beautiful car and you’d occasionally see it parked outside his office on Saturdays when he was there catching up on his records. And his staff were always resentful of it because he’d skimp on their salaries to buy exotics.
@@bikes7777 cmon guys be understandable, Doug probably said to him he will kill his entire family and lineage if he doesn't imitate him as good as he could
My dad had this car (the coupe) back in 87, I was 10. I remember going to an empty parking lot with a dusting of snow on the ground and doing donuts. So much fun!
The 328 is commonly called the “Toyota” because it’s so reliable and well made, compared to other Ferrari’s it’s an easy car to own. My father had 1979 308 gtb that was incredible to drive, but had a lot of problems even with expert care. He then had a 1987 328 gtb (which got stolen) and then a 1989 328gtb which was an amazing car, and so reliable he drove it daily for 15 years (he lives in Arizona so it’s not like he had to store it for the winter). It never left him stranded, and he was able to do all the maintenance himself, except major engine work.
The Great Value version of Doug Demuro did a really great job! Once he gets comfortable in front of the camera he could be the next face of Motor Week. 😊
you're one of the very few youtubers i love to see and would enjoy watching anytime because watching you talk about cars feels very genuine and personal. Please dont have someone else do that... I love the way you present and talk about all the small details about cars. Watching someone else trying to be like you is just weird and just not enjoyable. No offense to the guy in the video. He's doing a great job at presenting but he is no doug though.
5:39 As much as I love the 80s, I have to say that the 70s-style toggle switches with their satisfying snap up and down beat those 80s style dull plastic switches hands down. Ferrari should have kept the 308 style switches!
I have an '85 308 and I love it. It's one of, if not my favorite. It's so much fun to drive and experience. It's beautiful. It's easy to maintain. People love seeing it. Now I want to go drive it...
I have this exact year and color combo 328 and think you guys did a great job reviewing it and conveying how special and fun it is to drive. What starts out a bit awkward and clunky at low speed becomes a spirited driving experience once the car gets into a stride. At higher speeds on country roads, it really is a grand tourer like the "GTS" in the model name suggests. On a sunny day at 60-70mph, it's just amazing, and it really doesn't get much better than this. I think the 328 hit a narrow late-80s window where some cars were still very very analog (not for long). The reliability aspect makes the 328 a great entry level collector car for aspiring Ferrari enthusiasts. I put about 1000 miles a year on mine and it's never given me a lick of trouble. It's also very easy to work on and maintain. Values are still just barely affordable for normal folks, but are on the rise, so it's a decent investment if you need another reason to consider one. Here's a tidbit about size -- the 328 has about the same wheelbase and width as a ND Miata, but is lower. It's longer at the nose by about a foot, but overall this car is smaller than a Miata! The thing is, in person, the striking looks give it far more presence and it seems bigger. It's not until you compare dimensions, get inside, and drive the 328 that it becomes apparent it's a really small car.
Every single Italian car from that era had the same horn. There was probably a single mom and pop shop where Giovanni the village idiot assembled them. They're in everything from Fiat 500s to Ferraris and Lambos
15:40 talking about size, I have a 1983 308 and had a 1991 Toyota MR2. Parked in the garage side by side, the MR2 was 12" longer than the 308 and the roof of the 308 was as high as the side mirror of the MR2. The 308 weighs 120lbs more than the MR2, but has 100 more hp. These are TINY cars and quick. The driving experience, the sounds, the handling, it's all part of a package that makes these such wonderful cars to drive.
The flap around the gas cap is there to prevent scratching the paint with the gas nozzle when adding fuel. The gas cap in this car set into some of the bodywork making it easy to scratch the paint with the gas nozzle.
Saw the signs when they were driving and I live not too far from there. I hope I see Doug somewhere so I can say "hail to the king". : ) GREAT REVIEW like always!
Holy hell the volume is all over the place. Edit: this video is not up to Doug's normal standard. Volume issues, poping audio and no link to "this" car on cars and bids even after 2 hours.
The keyed window louver on the right side is perhaps not only there for symmetry, but is it possible the fuel nozzle is on the right side in the foreign/European models? Just a thought.
The 308 and 328 GTB models didn't have the black triangle with slats. Only the GTS models have this. This reminds me of Magnum P.I. Only he drove the 308. I love these older Ferrari's because of their manual transmissions. I find that all Rosso Corsa "Ferrari" red Ferrari's to be a bit too cliche. I'm a big fan of blue, yellow, and green among other more uncommon colors. Thank you.
Best job interview ever! As an amateur youtuber I respect how difficult it can be to be fluent and convincing, and Kennan did an awesome job. Well done mate!
Doug has trained his presenting to perfection (with a lot of humor) - cannot be replaced by anyone, sorry. It feels almost like I am suddenly out of Doug's hypnosis...awake again and thinking, hey this is actually not that interesting, what am I doing with my life..then Doug talks again...oh my life, it doesn't really matter - just keep talking :D But I love the talks with ken!
This is 100% Doug starting his exit from the channel by introducing the Robin to his Batman. Standby for Doug's 'retirement' now that he cashed in on all that Cars and Bids money. . . You read it here first.
Doug, I like how your brand is developing with C&B...but your channel name is "Doug Demuro". Never forget, it is you who viewers look for. Demands on your time change--but phasing out your presence on car reviews will be detrimental to the channel. We can watch car reviews anywhere on UA-cam but we come here, largely for you! Take this comment how you wish...
I think it is fitting, i don't like its appearence as much as other Ferraris and it is also fairly normal in comparison. Price and make aren't the only things that make a car cool.
@@Lukas-eh4cf Sure, the 328 isn't among the top 10 nicest Ferraris, but the 944 is just, well, plain as fuck IMO! I'm not necessarily saying the Ferrari should have been rated higher, but maybe the Porsche should've been rated lower.
Disagree. It was weak and mumbled, with Doug cutting in on him talking about his 355 all the time. If I'd heard something actually interesting from him about the 3X8 lineage, I'd agree with you - Ferrari expert - really?
Depends on where you are. If you go to Monaco or Switzerland then you'll see more Ferraris than any other car. And besides, Ferraris are supposed to be rare and exclusive.
@@horsepower523 do you understand the meaning of the word sarcasm? Have you lost all of your humour? And besides, its less rare to see ferraris in Switzerland, its still not like what you make them sound! They don't sell like Camry or Accord in the States! They are still quite rare even there! You will find more exotic cars in New York (the population is high and the per capita income of NY is higher than Switzerland and Monaco!)

@@MultiWalrus1 I purchased a UK car magazine on the 288 GTO in very late 1984 when it had just been released !
That magazine is now a collector's item and sells for $ US200.
My mom accidentally threw it out . . . Nooo!
It gets even more weird.
Initialook I got called a liar at school as nobody believed Ferrari would make a turbo road car, yet alone a twin turbo V8. In Australia our school holidays are from mid-December to often tge first few days of February due to it being summer.
One honest guy, when school returned came up apologised and showed me pictures of him in a 288 GTO. He want to Italy in December '84 and obviously came back by February 1985. His uncle had purchased a 288 GTO ! ! !
NO one could believe it. He told us that it was the best experience in his life especially when his uncle let him drive it. Unfortunately, Australian road rules prohibited Left Hand Drive ( Lhd) cars and the luxury car taxes were brutal.
E,g. the Testarossa & Countach cost $AU500K OR $US380,000 by 1985.
Australian luxury car tax was 70 % of the sales price on a luxury car.
This guy was devastated as his dad wanted to import a Ferrari 288 GTO. They were comfortably middle class but not outright wealthy. They purchased a Ferrari 328 GTS as it was near impossible to obtain a 328 GTB in Oz.
NOTE - To date there are only about 5 or less Ferrari 328 GTB's that are RHD and they sell $US150,000 over a GTS model. I know as a close friend of mine tied to purchase one 9 years ago and the owner wouldn't budge on his $AU500k asking price. It was also a very rare blue with white interior model. Dohhhh . .. again.
Well there it is Doug’s got his ambitions set high. The Doug Demuro car review universe. I have a feeling we will start seeing new presenters as Doug transitions to just doing the cars he wants. Looking forward to the new talent.
He has said that he wishes he had a co host to riff off of.
I don't! Never change a running system!
Yeah this is a mistake!
Drug de Muro
No ... there not the same energy doug is way more fun to listen to ... sorry other guy
This was the exotic car that I "imprinted" on, being a kid of the '80s, watching Magnum all the time. Just as when I first looked at it decades ago, I can't look at it too long. I can't soak in its lines or its color too much. It has a look that I have yet to tire of. I think it will always be this way with this car.
My dad had one of these when I was a kid. Watched this video with a smile on my face the whole time.
The Ferrari 328 is an absolute gem of a car! 💎
like all the ferraris
I don’t mind Kennan for the discussion videos but I prefer the reviews to be only Doug.
Doug, this is a cool review to finally see! My uncle had one in this exact spec from brand new up here in Toronto. He used this, and his '87 Grand National to tour and win audio competitions all over the place, and they became famous cars in the car audio industry back when it was still a thing. It's definitely a car I'd love to get my hands on one day for the nostalgia. Great video as always!
The power Ferrari was making with these small naturally aspirated engines in the smogged down eighties is incredible
I was just saying 270hp is not little for 3,2 Liters. BMW did 286 in the 90s out of 4 Liters and that was considered high.
It was a pleasure meeting your friend. Clearly, he is passionate about the automotive industry. Thanks for the video.
No mention of Magnum P.I. ?!?
I really hope you dont let someone else do your videos in the future, its not going to work, people are here for you Doug.
It's no big deal man, I think he's just making a video with his friend to change things up a bit. I'd be doing the same thing if I were him. It can be fun to work with your friends and Doug is clearly trying to enjoy things a bit now.
Such a cool car! The plastic flap under the fuel cap is mainly there so the handle of the fuel pump doesn't scratch the paint. I have one on my Porsche 944 as well for the same purpose. It doesn't work that well and so I have a load of scratches on the body panel underneath the fuel cap, but its better than nothing.
As comforting as the original format is, i absolutely dig when Doug lets his hair down and has a bit of fun with a vid
That’s the most times I’ve ever heard the word “analog” within a 20 minute span in my life.
Growing up my dentist had one of these. Beautiful car and you’d occasionally see it parked outside his office on Saturdays when he was there catching up on his records.
And his staff were always resentful of it because he’d skimp on their salaries to buy exotics.
So is Doug's brother doing the parody here, or does it turn out that unbeknownst to us Doug's been doing the parody all along??? 🤣
Good job Kennan, it’s not as easy to talk into the camera as people think but you did it flawlessly
He was as stiff as a hard shell taco
@@bikes7777 cmon guys be understandable, Doug probably said to him he will kill his entire family and lineage if he doesn't imitate him as good as he could
lol you don’t actually believe that do you?
Doug’s testing out Throttle House type interplay banter to spice things up a bit…
My dad had this car (the coupe) back in 87, I was 10. I remember going to an empty parking lot with a dusting of snow on the ground and doing donuts. So much fun!
Lucky 😫
The 328 is commonly called the “Toyota” because it’s so reliable and well made, compared to other Ferrari’s it’s an easy car to own. My father had 1979 308 gtb that was incredible to drive, but had a lot of problems even with expert care. He then had a 1987 328 gtb (which got stolen) and then a 1989 328gtb which was an amazing car, and so reliable he drove it daily for 15 years (he lives in Arizona so it’s not like he had to store it for the winter). It never left him stranded, and he was able to do all the maintenance himself, except major engine work.
The Great Value version of Doug Demuro did a really great job! Once he gets comfortable in front of the camera he could be the next face of Motor Week. 😊
That’s almost sacrilege.
"The great value version'"..... LOL 😊
Doug the type of guy who brings in backup when reviewing a Ferrari.
you're one of the very few youtubers i love to see and would enjoy watching anytime because watching you talk about cars feels very genuine and personal. Please dont have someone else do that... I love the way you present and talk about all the small details about cars. Watching someone else trying to be like you is just weird and just not enjoyable. No offense to the guy in the video. He's doing a great job at presenting but he is no doug though.
YOU ARE 100% CORRECT. This is why we enjoyed Doug’s review, because of him & only HIM!!!
Ope is Doug diving into delegation of his reviews? This man's a business man forsure.
Kennan has the linguistics, cadence, and hand gestures of Doug down pat. Looking forward to Kennan getting his own channel called “Ferraris and Facts”
5:39 As much as I love the 80s, I have to say that the 70s-style toggle switches with their satisfying snap up and down beat those 80s style dull plastic switches hands down. Ferrari should have kept the 308 style switches!
I have an '85 308 and I love it. It's one of, if not my favorite. It's so much fun to drive and experience. It's beautiful. It's easy to maintain. People love seeing it. Now I want to go drive it...
Lucky you. Take good care of it.
@robertbcope How long u owned it?
I had a chance to buy a 83’GTsi in 2011 for $24,000 and didn’t ,
been regretting that decision 😢
@@curtm6867 It'll be three years in July that I've owned it. So far, it's been great, I still love getting it in and driving!
Is this guy reading Doug's script? The words are so Doug's I can't believe he wrote his own lines.
2 friends enjoying an old Ferrari!! What a wonderful life!! 💯😊
Shoutout to that fuel spillage flap in the gas cap...should be in every single vehicle...mind blown lol so simple yet makes sense
I haven't watched in a month, who's this guy?😅
Thanks Doug. Thanks for always staying consistent, honest, genuine, hard working, exciting, and real with all of your reviews!
I have this exact year and color combo 328 and think you guys did a great job reviewing it and conveying how special and fun it is to drive. What starts out a bit awkward and clunky at low speed becomes a spirited driving experience once the car gets into a stride. At higher speeds on country roads, it really is a grand tourer like the "GTS" in the model name suggests. On a sunny day at 60-70mph, it's just amazing, and it really doesn't get much better than this. I think the 328 hit a narrow late-80s window where some cars were still very very analog (not for long).
The reliability aspect makes the 328 a great entry level collector car for aspiring Ferrari enthusiasts. I put about 1000 miles a year on mine and it's never given me a lick of trouble. It's also very easy to work on and maintain. Values are still just barely affordable for normal folks, but are on the rise, so it's a decent investment if you need another reason to consider one.
Here's a tidbit about size -- the 328 has about the same wheelbase and width as a ND Miata, but is lower. It's longer at the nose by about a foot, but overall this car is smaller than a Miata! The thing is, in person, the striking looks give it far more presence and it seems bigger. It's not until you compare dimensions, get inside, and drive the 328 that it becomes apparent it's a really small car.
Every single Italian car from that era had the same horn. There was probably a single mom and pop shop where Giovanni the village idiot assembled them. They're in everything from Fiat 500s to Ferraris and Lambos
Congrats! I wish you two the very best of luck together!
15:40 talking about size, I have a 1983 308 and had a 1991 Toyota MR2. Parked in the garage side by side, the MR2 was 12" longer than the 308 and the roof of the 308 was as high as the side mirror of the MR2. The 308 weighs 120lbs more than the MR2, but has 100 more hp. These are TINY cars and quick. The driving experience, the sounds, the handling, it's all part of a package that makes these such wonderful cars to drive.
My 85 Honda Prelude was about 600 lb lighter!
Great car. I have driven this actual one and it is pristine. Super fun to drive!
The flap around the gas cap is there to prevent scratching the paint with the gas nozzle when adding fuel. The gas cap in this car set into some of the bodywork making it easy to scratch the paint with the gas nozzle.
You FINALLY reviewed the most beautiful car(s) body styling there ever was!! Short of the 288 GTO, which is truly the #1.
Saw the signs when they were driving and I live not too far from there. I hope I see Doug somewhere so I can say "hail to the king". : ) GREAT REVIEW like always!
Holy hell the volume is all over the place.
Edit: this video is not up to Doug's normal standard. Volume issues, poping audio and no link to "this" car on cars and bids even after 2 hours.
I feel like Hawaiian shirts would have been a no brainer in this episode.
The keyed window louver on the right side is perhaps not only there for symmetry, but is it possible the fuel nozzle is on the right side in the foreign/European models? Just a thought.
Ken. The brother Doug never knew he had or needed
What a true friend Doeg is to share his influencer wealth. Keep up the great work.
The 308 and 328 GTB models didn't have the black triangle with slats. Only the GTS models have this. This reminds me of Magnum P.I. Only he drove the 308. I love these older Ferrari's because of their manual transmissions. I find that all Rosso Corsa "Ferrari" red Ferrari's to be a bit too cliche. I'm a big fan of blue, yellow, and green among other more uncommon colors. Thank you.
SADLY, I feel like this is a test video where Doug is trying to phase in somebody else to do reviews for cars being sold on the site....
He’s like the Venom Snake of Big Boss. Anyone can become Doug Demuro.
tell your buddy to get his own youtube channel. hoovie on sundays now is already too much.
Best job interview ever! As an amateur youtuber I respect how difficult it can be to be fluent and convincing, and Kennan did an awesome job. Well done mate!
I want Doug to have a cohost he can riff off of. It works wonders when he has Hoovie on.
Doug has trained his presenting to perfection (with a lot of humor) - cannot be replaced by anyone, sorry. It feels almost like I am suddenly out of Doug's hypnosis...awake again and thinking, hey this is actually not that interesting, what am I doing with my life..then Doug talks again...oh my life, it doesn't really matter - just keep talking :D
But I love the talks with ken!
Can you go back to saying individual doug score catagories please?
I like Ken! I agree that I would prefer Doug but I do understand where Doug is coming from wanting to transition some of the channel over
Ok if we're doing this with 2 people now, can we FINALLY get some exterior shots of the cars in motion?
Don't ever let this guy take over.
This is one beautiful car. Still looks modern. Love it!
Looks like the 80s what you talking about.
This Ferrari 328 looked incredible! Kinda reminded me to Ferrari Testarossa for some reason.
That 348 with 360 wheels is looking fresh
Imagine driving around in the 1980s with this car blasting some new wave goodness 😮💨😮💨😮💨🙃
I totally liked and enjoyed the video but I swear, Kernan's voice can put a person to sleep😅😅
Really like Doug's sidekick. Good energy between them. Enhances the review videos not that doug solo isn't great , this is a bonus . Keep it up!
We need more of this guy, he’s great, a natural👍🏻
This is 100% Doug starting his exit from the channel by introducing the Robin to his Batman. Standby for Doug's 'retirement' now that he cashed in on all that Cars and Bids money. . . You read it here first.
I hope not but you’re probably right. Everything comes to an end eventually.
Doug, I like how your brand is developing with C&B...but your channel name is "Doug Demuro". Never forget, it is you who viewers look for. Demands on your time change--but phasing out your presence on car reviews will be detrimental to the channel. We can watch car reviews anywhere on UA-cam but we come here, largely for you! Take this comment how you wish...
wasn't expecting that THHHISSSSS
Doug and Kennan are the best duo since a Ferrari 308 and a chevron mustache
Didn't expect to see a Doug Double DeMuro
Happy that the horn test is back! 😊
BTW I can't believe the 328 only got one more point in styling and cool factor than the Porsche 944 😅
I think it is fitting, i don't like its appearence as much as other Ferraris and it is also fairly normal in comparison. Price and make aren't the only things that make a car cool.
@@Lukas-eh4cf Sure, the 328 isn't among the top 10 nicest Ferraris, but the 944 is just, well, plain as fuck IMO! I'm not necessarily saying the Ferrari should have been rated higher, but maybe the Porsche should've been rated lower.
@@SvenElven 944 is one of the coolest and most mimicked designs ever. get off your high prancing horse 😜
This is like Van Halen switching to Sammy Hagar. It is Doug or nothing for me.
Great job, Kennan. Your delivery was 100% on point.
Disagree. It was weak and mumbled, with Doug cutting in on him talking about his 355 all the time. If I'd heard something actually interesting from him about the 3X8 lineage, I'd agree with you - Ferrari expert - really?
It wasn’t offered with “a variety of V8 engines”. The 308 had one V8 engine that eventually got 4 valves per cylinder and fuel injection. 🤦🏻♂️
I clicked to see Doug explain cars not some other guy with no charisma
Doug! The channel IS Doug. I know you gonna "retire" at some point but damn, not yet pls! 🙂
Holy shit there are a lot of bots in the comments.
Hard to replace a really good and unique voice. Doug's voice is calming in some weird way...
288 GTO is by far the BEST looking car ever made!
Ferrari as a brand is very underrated as it is! Despite being a great car to drive, they are very rare to see on the roads😉
Depends on where you are. If you go to Monaco or Switzerland then you'll see more Ferraris than any other car. And besides, Ferraris are supposed to be rare and exclusive.
@@horsepower523 do you understand the meaning of the word sarcasm? Have you lost all of your humour? And besides, its less rare to see ferraris in Switzerland, its still not like what you make them sound! They don't sell like Camry or Accord in the States! They are still quite rare even there! You will find more exotic cars in New York (the population is high and the per capita income of NY is higher than Switzerland and Monaco!)
@@Variable_Degree_Series No I did not know you were being sarcastic tbh, not until you edited your comment and added that winking emoji. Clever move.
@@horsepower523 the wink was there from the beginning, I committed a spelling error which I later edited, and even without the wink, if you can't get that, then just get some social life bro..
@@Variable_Degree_Series I was being sarcastic too in my previous comment. Didn't you get it?! I'm really surprised that a person who's as smug and full of himself as you are couldn't detect my OBVIOUS sarcasm. Hmm, that's weird. If you didn't get that, then just get some social life bro.
