and if i did buy a car, i would be an absolute fool not to read every comment to see if someone that actually knew the car, or more about the specifics of car model/year posted a comment
the british sports cars usually have very interesting comments. the old corvettes do too, on and on
i’ll gladly admit, over the years i’ve learned a hell of a lot about cars i like by reading the comments on BAT

I've been reading car magazines and books for over 50 years and working on cars almost as long, going to car shows and other events to learn more and on this board and others for as long as the internet has been around. That said, I've learned more from the comment section of BaT about C2 Corvettes, Jaguar E-types, Sunbeam Tigers, Mopar muscle cars and many others than I have from any other single source in this lifetime. The only cars I haven't learned much about there are air-cooled Porsches because I'm one of the more knowledgeable people over there on those.
The knowledge on that site is mind-blowing. Peter Egan commented on a Jag he had owned once, for fk sakes...Vic Skirmants sold his personal 356 and answered questions about it. And some clown here thinks that the comment and question section should be eliminated.
