Our reviews give you two perspectives. Jakub takes the perspective of the car enthusiast, while Yuri represents the interests of the general consumer. You won't find details about engine compression ratios here, instead you'll have real world opinions on what it's like to drive and own cars.

I've never seen a channel like you guys. You point out legit every single thing that I can like and dislike in a car (moving volume buttons, climate controls, placement for heated steering wheel, apple carplay pet peeves, visor test, etc) The way Jakob and Yuri edits these videos with humour is just ughh AMAZING.
Cheers from Montreal!
Awesome thanks!
TheStraightPipes thanks tweet you know who ;-)

Two knowledgeable car guys that have a passion for cars. Love to see these types of videos! Keep it up fellas!
In knew this would happen one day Your minds have melded into one - demonstrated by the smoothness of the dialogue and interplay. Thanks for the video editing and photoshopping (sp). The fuel gauge test, visor tests, and the photoshop work are becoming welcome addictions on this great site. Always a fan.
The photoshopping is actually pretty neat they blend it in nicely
I honestly believe you guys are going to become the most watched car review channel on TH-cam. Thorough, helpful, and extremely entertaining content. I always get excited when there's a new video posted. Keep up the good work boys.
Jonathan Sitzman oh damn, thanks!
this comment aged well :D
"Don't take the support suspension unless you want to take corners, but if you want to take corners buy a different car." Perfect. Thank you.
One thing you guys didn't mention about the infotainment system - it works on my 16 Mini Clubman, so it probably works in the BMW as well. One of my uniquely favorite things about the car.
The shortcut 1-6 buttons can be used for anything, not just radio stations. I have 1 and 2 set to my favorite radio stations. 3 is set to go straight the sports gauges. 4 is my tpms. 5 and 6 are set to nav home and work.
Ya you’re right. I’ll mention that in one of the next bmw vids
Do you like where BMW is heading with this new design language?

Did you guys missed a manual transmission???
Have to disagree with you guys 😬 This car is ugly to me. I think the only good looking X car is the X5 and the first gen X6.
Liked it !! Can you drive and review Volvo XC 40 please?
TheStraightPipes I’m not a big fan of the side badge. It just looks out of place
TheStraightPipes The M Sport model looks ok, but the base model looks absolutely awful with all the cheap black plastic. It doesn't look at all worth $42k, inside or out. No wonder all of the pre-release images featured the M Sport version! I'm sure we'll still see these things all over the place soon regardless...
That Goldust reference was pure Gold! 😂😂
I really like and enjoy this channel. The bantering is awesome and so is the review. It's not just typical stats of the car; it's what a person will/will not enjoy in a car. I find myself watching old video when I'm bored. Keep it up! Always excited when my alert tell me a new video is posted.
Tuesday and Thursday, sometimes more!
Best editing in a car review. Loving this channel so much, can't wait for my shirt!
This channel is a cut above others due to photoshop :) Thanks for explaining the whole X thing and where it falls in the line up, little confusing but not now.
You guys are awesome hands down one of the best car reviewers on TH-cam it’s so cool to see two peoples opinions on a review, came across you guys on the mazda 3 review cause I recently just bought one and I had to subscribe!! Great work guys!
I don’t see how people are still confused about the turn indicators. It’s literally so logical and after driving BMWs for 2 years now, I find their turning stalks much more solid than pretty much everything else on the market.
you guys are entertaining and informative. Awesome job as aways! when i see the notification, I had to refrain from clicking it, because I need some quiet sit down time to best enjoy your videos.
Both your charismatic personalities combined with the extremely high production quality (those cinematic shots tho), just makes your channel all the more unique and entertaining. I really am dazzled that you don't have more subscribers; appreciate the amazing content you deliver consistently.

Dude that's pathetic, you are either these boys Mum or a good friend lol.
These guys make me proud to be Canadian. Nice review guys keep it up!!!
This is the only channel that talks about what is relevant!! Great stuff!!! Something like the volume button is exactly what is the stuff that matters for daily usage.... Love the attention to detail...
I had a loaner 2018 x1 and it has a "regular" turn signal.
Another fun fact about BMW turn signals: Since the mid 90's, BMWs will always complete the flash even after toggling the indicator off. You'll never get a "half flash" like a lot of cars.
You know what ? I noticed that i was smiling everytime when you guys say : "I'm Jakub, I'm Yuri and we're going for a drive" I also love your outro and the music! You guys are doing amazing videos with great montage and always captivating ! Thanks from France since the beginning !
You guys continue to go the extra mile with detail with the added lighthearted touch to keep things fresh.
I'm noticing that this X2 has a lot of characteristics of a hot hatch blended with those of a low to the ground crossover. The Specs are virtually the same as a GTI or a Focus ST. I took it on a BMW Autocross course in So Cal this past Sunday. I'm very impressed with it. I'm considering it as my next vehicle!
The enthusiasm really makes tSP videos so watchable. I laughed out loud at the subscriber numbers increasing too :-). Thanks.
Get those numbers up!
I love how they shoot their videos while the car is running on the highway, especially when it's raining. Great production.
You guys keep me smiling. Great job as always.🚘
The X2 looks great. But the review made it better.
Apple’s responsible for you calling grey as space grey haha
Hahahahahah
impressions yup I see that now.
Except Space Grey has been a BMW color for over a decade
Again another awesome video review! I didn’t even know this car is out already.
The indicator is great that way . On long journeys its easy to just tap the indicator and change lanes gives the perfect amount of time to change lanes.
Such good editing, good review, keep it up
You guys are on a roll lately! Lovin all the new vids.
Loving your vids keep up the good work guys
Yuri is dressed like my Dad circa 1989. Or "The Pet Shop Boys". No one else could pull that off, no one. Well done Sir.
Diego Montoya I’m wearing my grandmas hoodie from the 80s
Yuri Tereshyn I have just comitted the sin of envy.
Great review as always. Sorry about your camera getting broken.
Thanks for another great review!
Best car channel on youporn
Now I want a porn parody
shit I thought I was on youtube, my boss is gunna kill me...
How's the handling Yuri?
Pretty good, but let's see how it handles cliche corner!
plz respond yuri
Dmocification agreed
Waiting for this!!!! Awesome! Btw, general rule of thumb for BMWs are that their even numbers, 2,4,6, are basically their coupes of the odd numbers, 1,3,5, with some slight exception to some models like the 1series range.
The lane change signal is just like audi's, a tap makes it blink 3 times for fast lane switching. Going all the way makes it stay there and blink for proper turning.
I think 🤔it's more about you guys ,than it is about the x2 guys ! ..top gears ⚙
Lads !!
More straight pipes! Yey
I love this little car. Why do people not like it. It’s awesome
Yuri's attention to detail is the best XD Steering wheel blocking display, and numeric badging not aligning with vehicle size, no volume by infotainment dial etc. The best :D
boro92 ha. It’s just odd user interface design. Not intuitive.
The steering ‘stiffening’ package doesn’t just do that, it’s different, it’s called the servotronic steering wheel on options, comes with m-sport package and up standard. Basically all it does is make the steering wheel light at low speed for manoeuvrability and then at high speeds on motorway (70mph) it is stiffer for better stability.. basically a safety feature, but is more pleasant and satisfying, especially if you’re driving hard on a B road.
Like your reviews! Honest and straight to the point. Keep it up guys 😀
Great review! First BMW I've liked in a long time. I really like your style on car reviews. Informative and fun without being stupid. Keep up the great work!
Car throttle
I really love that you guys mentioned where the design was inspired from! 'Most channels do not mention anything about design or concept besides which car it looks like or whether it ''looks good'' or not...
20/20 hindsight in 2020: I LOVE THIS NEW KIDNEY GRILLE! I HOPE THEY DON'T EVER MAKE IT ANY BIGGER!
so I have to admit...I wouldn’t care one bit to watch a video about an X2...but if the Straight Pipes feature it then I am watching! great job
Also, late model Lexus vehicles have followed BMW regarding the turn signal stalk. My '15 GS350 Fsport has the same turn stalk behaviour. You get used to it after a bit, and you'll actually prefer it once you're used to it.
In Hyundais with memory seats to turn on the reverse tilt mirrors you keep the mirror adjuster in the middle position and to turn it off you put it in either left or right position.
Smaller wheels aggressive tires and a lift would make this thing look sickkkk. Like a fancy version of a rallied out crosstrec
Holy crap that plastic looks like my first car, the Golf mk3 when it started to rust from road salt so I decided to scrap the paint off and put a vinyl wrap on it lol
If it's too quick for how stiff it is, I have an unhappy wife.
Nice review. Now I'm going to jump into my 4DR Golf SEL TDI coupe and get a bite to eat.
Actually not a bad looking SAV. Although those fog lights seem out of place. Also, there will be an X7 in 2019.
Great review guys!
Honestly, you guys are the only ones I ever comment or follow on a weekly basis....
I like the looks of the X2 except for the gray part up front, it looks like it has a goatee. RIP Yuri's camera.
harrismi7 I’m going to use this guide to clean my camera th-cam.com/video/iaKmB6dGvtc/w-d-xo.html
Hahaha!
I think some of these manufacturers need to hire you guys pre-production. Very good points! Also, love how you guys do the photoshop animations!
dwx us+ savage geese could probably help any car become great in pre production
Oh! Please do another collab again sometime!
These boyz are just Top Notch!
LOL Yuri -- I like the moving volume knob emblem because it upsets OCD people -- very funny. Keep up the wittiness and still unpretentiousness!
A new StraightPipes notification is like Christmas morning...yet again, another stellar review. I actually really like this X2, but what I'm wondering is if that rear visibility is as poor as it looks. The C-pillar is huge, and with a tiny, curved at the top back window and headrests is it good enough? Other than that, very well done BMW.
J Pollock visibility is fine
You guys are great. Im watching videos about cars I don't care about just because you're amusing, bravo
Awesome review
Dude love watching you guys 😍.
Hey guys! Nice video as always! I would like to see a review of the 2018 wrx with the new perfomance pack to compare with your sti review! 👍
I like these guys. It’s almost like two friends just talking about cars.
Don’t forget to subscribe
How much is the turn signal option in the BMW? lol
ZEFilms Productions very expensive obviously. Thats why most of bmw drivers don't have it on their car.
just saw a bmw who used blinkers when merging into a roundabout traffic lol
It's expensive due to the fact that they have to provide blinker fluid for 3 years in every car.
Turn signal jokes are so last year
You've got it all wrong. BMWs come with turn signals standard and most people who drive them do use them. The trouble is, they emit a certain wavelength of light that poor people cannot see.
The grey accents make it look like a 2007 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport Wagon.
Y'all did it again!! Killed it!
I saw one of these parked on the street, and I was really surprised how lean and low it looked.
Spinny volume knob is the only acceptable volume control knob. When your favorite song kick in, there is nothing more satisfying then bumping the volume up in a second.
Enjoying a lot watching u guys. The way u disagree from each other is hilarious. I’ve been watching so many videos of you even though I’m not interested in the car model. Cheers guy
i got a rental bmw X1 for like a week ...and mann i love it...you sit high and the visibility is realll really good and thin A pillars. It didnt had the safety features but the interior is same as the X2 . and also the X1 only had 2 interior lighting (red and white).
I think you guys should also check for rear fog lights. I love rear fog lights. They are soo helpful in bad weather. My Volvo s80 has it. I think you should it in every car you review so that car companies will start adding them..
You guys should review the BMW 6-Series GT as well sometime in the future !:)
I tried to watch Vehicle Virgins review of this same car and gave up after a couple minutes when I saw your review in the sidebar "Up Next". Holy shit, what a difference. Hope you guys get 1m+ subscribers soon!
Hahahahah thanks
I'm loving your reviews! May I recommend one more test? How about a rear window visibility through the rear view mirror test? Or an overall blindspot test? I recently test drove a Jaguar E-Pace and the rear window looked tiny in the mirror. Not a lot of visibility. Kind of a big turn off for me with that vehicle. Anyways, you've definitely earned a new subscriber; keep up the great work!
Guys, really great work as always! If I may explain the BMW nomenclature. As you said, Xs are for SUVs. But the numbering goes like this. Odd numbers are for sedan or sedan like vehicles while even numbers are for coupes or coupe like SUVs. As an aside, it seems like some car manufacturers are trying very hard to sell cars calling them (sexy) coupes but I mean, come on, we’re getting really far from the definition here...
Cheers!
real quality, god work!!
Love the styling 😍
Yuri: “I don’t like it, but it has grown on me”
Perfect representation of a tumour, or a cyst.
LOL
I saw the blue version. That one without the gray lines look good actually
If they made an M2 hatchback
Holy freaking cow it would be the best
Great review, I think i'd probably take the X1 over this. Shame that BMW hasn't got a X1M or X2M to compete with the GLA45 and Audi RSQ3.....at least yet. Can't wait for the M240i next week!
The production version is beautiful. The gray yeah looks weird. Buy I've seen a blue one reviewed by remove before race. It's absolutely sexy. It looks more hatch than crossover
When you said Rally car at 1:39 I could only think of "Hello darkness my old friend..."
Honestly, the freakin spinning volume drives me nuts!
Love your videos and always love when you sprinkle in a wrestling reference! Goldust was one of my faves! And I can't remember which video it was but I do remember there being a Bret Hart reference! Excellence of Execution. 💙
Superb fellas 😊
You guys are a good team and you balance out each other well with comments during the review. Please review the BMW 3 series Grand Turismo. I would love to know what you guys think about it.
I really like this Chanel, keep up with the nice videos. You have a new subscriber now👍
I would love to see the new Subaru Ascent if you ever get your hands on it.
woah bmw finally changed their shifter... cant wait for the m240i review, really want to get one for myself with the advantage of having available xdrive
Paul the M240i has a PROPER shifter 😉
They didn’t change their shifter, the electronic toggle type one still lives on. This layout has been what they’ve used in their lower end SUV’s and the mini’s for a few years now. I worked for BMW for several years and I’ve come to find their electronic shift to be one of the most tolerable in the business.
Visor test, coffee cup test, satellite rewind test - all good. YOU NEED TO ADD IN THE REAR HEADREST TEST, if you can't move the rear headrests out of the way of the tiny little rear window = fail.
Your reviews are always really entertaining when you don't like the car.
Oh I figured out what it reminds me of... Subaru Baja... they had the exact kind of grey trim...
tykszeto yessss Jakub didn’t see the baja resemblance
actually many german car journalists hate the sidebadge but I'm more with you guys
Perhaps that Grey cladding would look better on a Red X2. Real auto-manual shifting from usable right arm rest - a big plus on any car...I am spoiled by my Lexus GS350 F-SPORT.
That car in black, with the grey trimms is so damm cool
Not my type of car, but I enjoyed to see your review as usual. A moment of silence for the cam, RIP.
The wireless Carplay is a nice feature (I think BMW are the only one with this feature) and you leave the phone on your pocket, but the bugs you describe is annoying since there's not a lot of people that using Wireless Carplay. That type of bug will not be resolved anytime soon. Apple needs to polish iOS 11, but this a other subject... Thanks again for the review.
You guys are getting about 2000 new subs everyday! I think it's safe to say you guys are blowing up! Congrats :) p.s. please review the normal golf, I'd love to hear your impressions
Guillaume J. Which one. Base base manual?
Yuri Tereshyn maybe the middle trim, nice features but nothing extravagant, the automatic? Haha, I feel so priviledged.
Guillaume J. Just get a golf r lol
Yuri Tereshyn Hahaha. I will, but my current one is the comfortline golf. Hence my curiosity, but maybe I'll be alone enjoying the review.
I always wanna know which one of you does the editing because the stuff you guys do on videos is amazing
Both of us do everything. Filming, editing, etc. 50/50
But it looks really cool. Btw great review guys! 👌
Voltswagon must be a Toronto accent thing. My dad’s been calling it that for years and I never noticed till you pointed it out.
you should always get a medium Tim Hoes, roll up the rim to win!
