honestly for me, there are some local motoring journalist who are still not at par with their foreign counterparts. Those who i have obseved that have obvious biases over some more popular brands. but im not saying that foreign auto writers arent bias, sometimes i feel that they are like that too.
but if im a motoring scribe, i dont need to even care if im at par with those europeans nor americans...i dont think there is any mandate that says that they are the BENCHMARK anyway... so, ill just do my job properly & transparently.
