If you're a fan of Robert Downey Jr., you'll likely enjoy it regardless of your interest in cars. The show blends cars, car restorations, and climate change concerns. While Robert initially hinted at converting everything to EVs, but certain things out of his power prevented that.
In comparison to shows like "Fast N' Loud" and "Diesel Brothers," this one falls short, especially for car enthusiasts. While it addresses carbon footprint reduction, it also features contradictory stunts and cars. Some builds seem not thought through, possibly due to RDJ surprising his team on which car they're restoring next or maybe they just wanted to have hiccups for authenticity. It often feels more suited to YouTube than TV, lacking urgency and excitement. It oscillates between a rich man's whim and genuine passion, making it hard for me to get fully invested in.
Though I learned a few things, being a car enthusiast already, the show would benefit from a clearer direction amid the evolving landscape of car transportation. Like it's still a little too early. It's at the start of that transition phase from petrol/diesel cars.
Overall, it's more enjoyable as a casual watch, particularly if you're a Robert Downey Jr. Fan. For staunch climate activists or dedicated car show fans, it might disappoint. Personally, I found it a decent pastime, i liked some of the restoration outcomes, just without forming strong opinions for or against the show.
