Best thing of 2023 was making Edwin a full time host. He’s really added to the humor and brings out the best in Ethan and Jack. Thanks for the laughs, boys!

Agreed. At first when Alex had left there was a bit of a "now what", but they really made it work and the way i see it we've now got 2 good car channels when we used to have only one. We all benefit.

@@destructionnl8165 I agree. I also always felt like Edwin was truly passionate to be a host once Alex left. It's not that I don't like Alex but he got a lot of stuff going on his hands and i'm not sure how much time would he even find for the channel so it's nice having Edwin as a full time presenter.

@@royliber3824 As i understand Alex was supposed to remain at CarThrottle as freelance but his channel grew so fast he doesn't really have time to do much else besides his own thing at AutoAlex. Quite happy it happened. The thing that seems to be missing is some sort of a big challenge between the CarThrottle and the AutoAlex guys.

Edwin is great. I thought no one would be able to replace Alex, kind of like what happened to Top Gear, but Edwin really filled in those shoes. He's hilarious and is passionate about cars. It probably also helps that he's been with Car Throttle for many years, just mostly behind the scenes with the odd appearance. I actually think I prefer Edwin, not to shit on Alex at all, he was great, but it always felt like Alex was overshadowing Ethan and Jack, whereas with Edwin, it feels like everybody is involved. I don't really know how to describe it, but hopefully you get what I mean.

I've never enjoyed Car Throttle as much as this year and I'd love to see this car done up. Ideally cleaned up nice first and then maybe some shenanigans.

Love where Car Throttle is right now. Awesome people, cool projects and good fun videos

Merry Christmas to you all at Car Throttle. More so I’m glad your channel is still going strength to strength, keep doing what you’re doing. Also to add, I met Ethan recently and if you want this car detailed I’ll drive down and help out if you want it.

Everyone was concerned about CT at the start of the year, but guys, you’ve done a fantastic job! Every episode has been brilliant, and the relationship between you three is a joy to watch - thank you

It’s so good to see this channel and Alex’s channel do so well! Ethan is an absolute star and a fantastic addition to this channel. Big respect from Canada! Cheers boys. Well done!

Seeing Ethan so genuinely happy about this car and so interested is incredible to see

honestly a car series about doing up cars like this would be so fun

Love this, definitely need a series on getting this fixed and modifying it.

I've got to say after not really following CT for a while, best part of 2023 was rediscovering this channel. Every video has been a banger really feels like 3 mates just doing cars. This video was unexpectedly wholesome.

I’m only half way through but I hope they bought Edwin a present too, he’s a fantastic full time addition!!!

The chemistry between the three guys! Just absolutely love it, please keep the videos coming!

Not gonna lie, I'm loving the SMX. Never seen one myself but it looks nice. Would love to see what gets done to it. Love the videos guys, its been a great year. Looking forward to the new vids. Merry Christmas/Happy New Year.

it really is a properly cool looking little box on wheels, like a first gen XB but better

That was hilarious! 😂😂 We need a full series with this car for definite! Ethan's face was a picture. Happy New Year lads!

Since this car is TECHNICALLY owned by Ethan it would be fun I think to do a more down to earth casual thing. No sponsor parts, no stupid mods, just a "dude's" journey in getting his somewhat exotic car roadworthy. Going to heaps, finding people who do chassis welding, cleaning sorting paperwork out, chill shit. Also mentions of real costs. It doesn't even need to be done too quickly. This could be the channel's 'supergramps'.

a B18 and some dished wheels sitting flush would look pretty badass, NGL

Merry Christmas lads, you three have reinvigorated my interest in CT, love the current direction ❤️

As an HRV owner, the SMX looks like the key car version of my car. Seen them before, sadly never saw a manual one I would be interested in. Edit, as for the engine, afaik, the B20 block will accept a B18 or B16 head, so this could be a 200hp car somewhat easy, given it also gets an ECU and such ofc. But this is 2nd hand knowledge so no guarantee. Tl:dr: Very much love the new project.

it has the look, but is significantly bigger than a Kei car. as they said, the engine is a 2.0, which wouldnt even fit between the frame rails of a regular Kei. it uses basically Civic drivetrain parts in the front, so it's as wide as a Civic, as low as a Civic, but as tall as a CRV. extremely cool car IMO

@Dispozition

Definitely agree that a B20 franken engine is the way to go. Best of both worlds, 'big' torque from the 2.0 litre bottom end, but then a b18C head for that sweet VTEC yo. They take turbos really nicely too and can make some serious power.

Car throttle has been getting so good lately. I look forward to every new episode and the chemistry is just magical. Merry Christmas and get well into the next year. Cheers

It's been a real joy to watch this year's shenanigans on the channel, I'm looking forward to what's to come in 2024! Best wishes to you all at CT!

Once you finish the 924 (and I'm prepared to wait for as long as that car takes to car for it to be finished) I DEMAND you start work on tarting up this SMX. It's bloody fantastic.

Team CT absolutely nailing it still. Awesome to see you guys and @Autoalex producing fantastic content. Edwin is an amazing addition to Jack and Ethan (and that E46 M3… god dayum). Happy New Year all 🎉

Merry christmas and a happy new years, guys 🙂 It has been a joy following you along during a few years now, and I am excited for what to come. Best wishes for 2024 from a fan and car detailer from Norway. Just love your content 🙂

These boys... What a troupe. I honestly hope 2024 brings a lot more videos than usual from you guys. 1 a week at 20m a piece is simply not enough. ❤

No video for two weeks now I'm getting withdrawal symptoms 😭😭😭

Car Throttle secret Santa this should be good 😊 hope you guys had a great Christmas 🎄🎁🎄

Well done on such a great year you guys and crew, cant wait for what's to come. ❤❤☮☮✌✌

Your excitement is incredibly infectious, I'm instantly invested in this thing! Thank you so much for what you've made this year, I can't wait to see more of you blokes getting your hands dirty!

Merry Christmas boys ❤

Never heard of that car but it's cool that it somehow comes with a B series engine, I think swapping a B18 head onto it should produce around 200hp and be a fun car to drive.

Go on lads, after recovering gradually from the loss of Alex you have come so far this year and gone out with a bang. I think buying this crusty shagger for Ethan wins you the best charismas special, even beating the OGs MCM, don't tell em i said that.

I was afraid this channel was going to suffer without Alex. But instead we got two amazing channels out of it. Congrats on a great year!

I would love to see a series restoring and taking care of the SMX :D Thanks for a year of brilliant content!

This channel took a stumble when Alex left, but honestly-- the new team fills the shoes just fine.

Love it, really enjoyed watching your videos this year CT 👏

The coolest project car on KZread at the moment. Love that it already comes with a problem on the rear right. This is going to be an amazing project series

We need a shirt that says “a rear right brake calliper”

So good! You guys have rock it this year! I can't wait for next year.

Keep up the good work guys! I've loved the content this year, and you seem to have a really good dynamic on screen 🤘🏻 Happy New Year to you all ❤

Awesome stuff, throughout the year! Happy holidays!

Awsome guys, Merry Christmas too all off you🎅🎄❄️

Oh that smx LOVELY, happy holidays mates, too another year of car throttle!

Fantastic video as always guys

Keep up the good work chaps. Love the channel.

Been a great year guys - thanks for the content. Hope this becomes a build series on the wee Honda. A rear right brake caliper.....

A worthy ending to a great year. It’s refreshing to see you guys keeping it real. Here’s to more in 24.

Thanks for the great content lads. Look forward to the next! Peace and love.

Merry chistmas and happy new years boys! I loved hanging out with my buds working on shit boxes for those years and it feels exactly the same when I watch CT videos with you three kicking ass and having the most fun with it

Definitely more videos on this one!!! Needs to have a k20 swap, my god that would be epic 😂

Detail and bring that beauty back to factory fresh!!! Prime opportunity here for the channel.

You guys are fecking ace. Thanks for the great content

You guys have a great rapour between you all and I watch every vid that pops up which I can’t say about a lot of channels. Thanks guys merry Christmas 👍🏻

Love the camaraderie. Genuine friendship. What an awesome gift look forward to seeing more videos on the Honda good and bad! (And can’t wait to finally see the porka done!) keep up the good work boys and girls have an awesome new year

Merry Christmas guys. Cheers from Australia.

I've never been so keen on watching car throttle videos until this year. Such a good vibe between the 3 and enjoying the 924 project

Hell yes, you guys need to mess around with this car! It will be an epic series to watch

Thanks for a year of awesome content guys! Happy New Year! 🎆

I just have to say i absolutely love this channel all of your energy and chemistry is awesome! Very comical which i love also keep up the good work guys!!! Happy new year

only started watching earlier this year, and you guys are brilliant. looking forward to another year of it

dude i was watching this on fb and then it disappeared wondered where it went! Glad I see it again on the channel kei cars/vans are amazing

Keep this up guys, looking forward to a series about Ethans car. After Alex had left i wondered "now what" but you guys really picked up and the trio of Jack, Ethan and Edwin are a good match!

Love your content keep up the outstanding work!

So excited for this series!! Keep up the awesome work!

So much fun. The joy in your faces buying the car was brilliant.

Brilliant, Merry Christmas Gents. i cant wait to see Its journey throughout 2024, id never seen one before and now i want one.

Missed opportunity: Getting Edwin a rear right brake caliper! Keep up the good work guys. Loving the new dynamic that CT has taken this year. If you guys are ever in Cyprus we can do a shitbox challenge here in Cyprus. This could also be a new series for you guys.... A shitbox challenge in every country, with locally sourced parts. You guys are cushy in the UK, knowing all the parts dealers and all. Put an element of the unknown in the mix, see how you fare!

Genuinely laughed a lot watching this episode! Brilliant work

Ethan’s S3X Wagon is almost as brilliant as the look on his face when it arrived. Fantastic 👍

It's not that we want a series of this, it's more we NEED it.

All of the work to this car. Now. All of it. Brilliant stuff boys.

To say that I sat upright in the couch to watch the video after the introduction of the SMX, despite having a full belly, says how much I want a series on this car!

Probably the best CT has ever been, especially now that Alex has his own thing going, and there's Taylor and Ed, there's now so much more decent content

This is why I love the ‘car scene’ - brilliant vid to end the year. More of this please!

Loves this, can’t wait for more to come next year 🎉❤

Can we please get series of this car?

Great episode 👏 👌 🎉

A moment of festive thanks to whoever is doing the editing as well. Perfect pacing, composition and musical score.

I am really looling forward to see another episode with the Porsche. It’s an amazing series

Oh you absolutely HAVE to do a build series on this car now. I say lightly turbo the current engine, but more importantly it needs wheels, coilovers, a new spoiler, underglow, interior lighting, vinyl graphics, and the upholstery cleaned.

These young men... What a group. Sincerely, I hope to see a lot more videos from you people in 2024 than I usually do. One every week at 20m each is just insufficient.

thank you for all the videos this year really enjoyed them and cant wait to see what will come in 2024

Happy Xmas guys

Merry Christmas lads, and looking forward to all the great vids coming in 2024!

Be great to see some work on that. Been a great year of ct on you tube. Very much looking forward to what ct 2024 has to offer.

Thank you guys for this year's entertainment. I look forward to 2024's entertainment very much!

Seeing how much Ethan loves this car already, i want to see a full build. Start by cleaning it up, get it sorted for the road, few little tasteful cosmetic bits, then B20 or B18 swap it.

Can't wait to see more of you guys next year, the videos have just got better and better. Definitely need to see a build/mini restoration of the SM-X - perhaps a B18C cylinder head as others have said? Or maybe just fix it up, make it clean and nice and leave it stock?

What a year guys love the content 😂 onwards and upwards

Need to do a series of camping with Ethan stories, including the build into a camper and possibly Jack and Edwin buy one each on a budget build challenge.
