One that always comes to mind is most of the reviews of the 911 when (most of) the whole lineup moved to turbos and the general sentiment was “you couldn’t even tell” there was “zero lag”

Then the hybrid turbo comes out and suddenly every reviewer loves how “they removed all the lag!”

Same thing happened to a lesser extent with the 7spd manual. But more people in period were criticizing it

I’m sure there’s a million more in just Porsche alone. But curious to see what other inconstancies or biases you’ve spotted also who’s the most trustworthy in your opinion.
