[0:04] hello [0:05] these people asked for it they got it [0:07] they definitely did i'm just making sure [0:09] our ever lovable chin face is ready yes [0:12] and the other thing is we need to do [0:13] make sure that uh everybody needs to [0:15] sign sound off that our audio is within [0:19] specifications can they can you lovely [0:21] people hear us oh look at that they can [0:24] wow there's one person again okay [0:27] he said yes good i'm going to check in [0:29] with chris or face [0:32] and you can you can see what chin face [0:34] looks like in our escalade v video [0:37] that's right if you want to know what [0:38] chris looks like [0:40] watch the escalade v video and then he's [0:41] also going to be in another cadillac [0:43] video is this guy just only yeah he only [0:45] likes gm's well he's he actually was [0:47] designed by gm's ai division he's our [0:49] new uh gm [0:51] bot [0:52] and uh it's not technically gm because [0:54] we could get sued for saying that he's [0:56] actually designed by gm but some after [0:58] hours engineers that have worked on who [1:00] also like nursing homes [1:02] yep [1:03] um [1:04] all right so what do you want to talk [1:05] about well so today's live stream is [1:08] going to be treated like a traditional q [1:10] a of course okay uh because people like [1:12] that but i also want to bring up some [1:14] topics in between [1:16] so this can feel more like a podcast [1:18] that it's actually starting to turn into [1:20] where we talk to you about nothing for [1:23] four hours in this case three hours [1:25] because we are going to do a [1:27] hard cut off at 10 pm central central [1:29] time yes uh so cdt isn't it technically [1:33] no it's cst right now and then it goes [1:34] to cdt and the next time change it's [1:36] very confusing perfect well so much for [1:38] that engineering degree anyway all right [1:40] nobody cares about time zones uh the [1:43] what was the thing i was gonna tell you [1:45] about that uh oh yes dj shrimp scampi [1:48] couldn't be here today he had to pull a [1:50] double at red lobster this week [1:52] i mean nobody wants to work and i don't [1:54] get it the cheddar biscuits are and you [1:58] stood me up for a admiral's [2:00] feast instead of going to the track with [2:02] me where you could spend some time with [2:03] a pro driver you were just like brit [2:06] britt's got too much testosterone for me [2:08] i got i gotta cool down with some [2:10] lobster [2:11] yeah this guy's like oh you want to [2:12] drive a gr86 on the track i'm like yeah [2:14] i think i'll just rather go to red [2:16] lobster [2:18] um so let's get into before we start [2:20] that let's talk about some car stuff [2:23] okay um [2:24] because that's what people uh enjoy [2:27] and uh so we got i got a whole list here [2:30] oh wow [2:31] i got a lot to talk about [2:33] we did our comparison test which we [2:36] somewhat talked about uh with the all [2:38] the affordable poverty cars and one of [2:41] the big questions was why do you didn't [2:42] include mazda 3 [2:44] hatch [2:45] and that's something that we are going [2:47] to cover in [2:49] the next video comparison that we're [2:51] doing we have a couple comparisons [2:52] coming that you guys uh clearly seem to [2:55] like we're doing [2:57] like every everyone in the world is [2:58] doing this comparison test but it's uh [3:00] supra [3:02] and z [3:03] with gr86 thrown in there to show you [3:05] whether or not a modified gr86 can keep [3:08] up [3:09] with two cars [3:11] with real tires we're putting both the [3:13] supra and the z on real tires yeah and [3:16] we're not going to talk about that but [3:17] we're trying to neutralize some of this [3:18] yeah and you already know that the gr86 [3:20] is going to be slower but i mean it it's [3:23] just a show really between jack [3:25] myself and brit casey who obviously is a [3:28] professional driver we're going to show [3:30] that and kind of what you expect and i [3:32] think some of these comparisons like [3:34] people ask well what about the lap time [3:36] board and [3:38] to be completely fair nobody cares about [3:40] lab times especially on a track nobody's [3:42] ever driven on there's no real benchmark [3:45] of to saying okay this car's fast on [3:46] this track and [3:48] truth is that somebody could be fast on [3:50] this track and then the car could be [3:51] faster on another track that's more of a [3:52] club circuit the other thing that we [3:54] found when we did our testing we had the [3:55] s2000 gr86 and i can't remember i think [3:58] the elantra and out that day it was [4:00] really cold it was cold and windy and it [4:03] was the first time that i'm like holy [4:05] these cars [4:06] it wasn't just a little bit fast it was [4:08] noticeably faster and the pavement [4:09] wasn't rubbered in on the other tracks [4:11] so we're losing a lot of grip so this is [4:13] the point when you see lap times you can [4:15] almost take them as a grain of salt [4:17] unless you have somebody that is taking [4:19] like 20 cars at once taking them out the [4:22] same day like within the same hour where [4:24] the sun is if the you know all that crap [4:26] that's that's the only way lap times are [4:27] typically accurate and i don't i used to [4:30] put a lot more weight on that and now i [4:31] put a far less weight on because it's [4:34] more about how the car feels [4:36] what the car is doing and what it's not [4:38] doing that's important and i think [4:39] that's going to be more of our [4:41] focus going forward the mazda3 thing so [4:44] watch your original video on the mazda3 [4:46] all-wheel drive turbo [4:48] the car is not a hot hatchback i don't [4:51] care what anyone says it has a torsion [4:52] being rear end when you talk to the [4:54] mazda engineers it was designed as a [4:57] faux luxury car not once did they [4:59] mention golf r gti [5:02] i don't really think you launch around [5:04] you launch ran [5:05] the lunchroom wasn't even a velociraptor [5:07] yeah none of those cars were out back [5:09] then or sorry or even [5:12] like benched luxury right right yeah so [5:14] that's that's all one thing we can put [5:16] it out here which we'll probably talk [5:17] about in the video but that really [5:19] changes your your perspective how can [5:21] you compare it knowing that their car [5:23] was never designed to be that fun car [5:26] anymore yeah it's it's fast [5:28] it's quick it's supposed to be like that [5:30] everyday driver with refinement a little [5:32] bit of enjoyment to drive um but you [5:34] know what i'll counter that and say when [5:36] you look at the integra of the civics [5:38] and all these affordable cars they've [5:39] become almost to the point where they're [5:42] all over refined too i mean they're [5:43] really refined compared to like the old [5:45] boxes we used to love we're gonna [5:47] be doing a video [5:48] with the crx yes like two crx's and i [5:52] told jack i'm like when we get this crx [5:54] race car on track [5:56] i'm almost i i would put money on it [5:58] that it'll be the best car you've ever [6:00] driven on that's like the formula cars [6:02] yeah outside of like you know real race [6:03] cars of course but street cars turn race [6:06] car um and it's because those cars of [6:08] the past were just so connected they [6:11] they talked to you in every way that [6:12] they possibly can [6:14] um the byproduct was that car this was a [6:16] best-case scenario yeah scott that [6:18] that's true yeah yeah okay scott [6:21] building probably [6:22] one of the most dominant uh crx's in [6:25] existence and racing in existence in [6:27] racing here in the us yeah but the car [6:29] was notoriously good but i'm just saying [6:31] like that's a great example of the like [6:33] long long ago approach of like having [6:36] connectivity and that car was actually [6:37] refined back in the day too that was [6:39] like a big step forward but now [6:42] we've we've gone to these new cars where [6:44] they have to do [6:45] like they have literally have to do [6:47] everything and you're like you're [6:48] driving like man this is great to drive [6:50] me like god am i bored driving [6:51] this thing you know so any anyway it's [6:54] really hard [6:55] um it's really hard to explain this to [6:58] to people watching where they can kind [7:00] of get a good taste for what these [7:02] things are really like um and lap times [7:04] again back to that point lap times do [7:05] not tell you anything about any of that [7:08] like literally well that's the problem [7:10] with the internet though right people [7:12] only care about bench racing like you [7:14] have the gt3 rs that's coming out yeah [7:16] that we will not be at the european [7:17] launch but we will be at the u.s [7:19] re-launch or whatever that that car uh [7:22] whatever they're doing with that car [7:23] here in the u.s but all anyone seems to [7:25] care about with that vehicle is [7:27] how it does around the ring what ring [7:29] time it isn't yes for a car like that [7:31] that's important but [7:32] what i'm more interested in finding on [7:34] this how does it sound and how does it [7:36] improve on the regular gt3 and that's [7:39] again that's not what anyone's going to [7:40] be talking about right we're just going [7:41] to talk about the lap time the same [7:42] thing goes for the c806 when they do [7:45] release a ring time on that that's all [7:46] people are going to hear yep that that's [7:48] true but i mean that's how else do [7:49] normal like if you don't get to drive [7:51] all these cars [7:53] what's the easiest way you can tell a [7:55] car is better than another one right [7:57] from like a performance car perspective [7:58] that's why like car and driver and all [8:00] those were so dominant they focused on [8:03] all these like static objective [8:05] measurements [8:06] um [8:07] and that's how people got used to [8:09] judging them and now like some of the [8:11] trend is like what cars faster than a [8:13] drag race which again is [8:15] i guess there's some merit in it in a [8:17] straight line you just read the spec [8:18] sheet to find out pretty pretty much and [8:20] that's why i said like we're going to do [8:21] the gr 86 versus like a supra it's like [8:23] there's no doubt you don't even have to [8:26] do you know you don't even have to read [8:27] anything to know that [8:29] the the super is going to annihilate [8:31] that car in any condition the question [8:33] is is it in and that was the s2000 [8:35] argument like that's 2000 maybe slower [8:38] but you're feeling a lot driving it so [8:40] even though it's not as fast you're [8:42] feeling like you're driving it you feel [8:43] like it's faster because it's so [8:45] engaging and that's that's where you [8:47] can't judge cars uh object or [8:50] subjectively and objectively anymore [8:52] through any type of measured testing [8:54] because those lines are no they're so [8:56] blurred now [8:57] the other comparison test we will be [8:59] doing speaking of integra is integra [9:01] mazda3 i feel like that's a pretty apt [9:03] one they're both japanese pseudo luxury [9:05] cars and we get to actually talk about [9:08] our like our our ungarnished thoughts [9:10] now that time has passed yeah integra [9:12] and revisit the mazda3 they are very [9:14] similarly priced but the one thing i [9:16] will bring up is mazda 3 turbo all-wheel [9:18] drive which is about 35 000 as a hatch [9:21] or 36 does not come as a manual right [9:24] yeah which this is another topic all [9:26] together like what is it with the car [9:27] manufacturers [9:29] releasing enthusiast cars [9:31] and putting manuals on only the top trim [9:33] like is this like did did you get an [9:35] explanation as to why so with ilx if i [9:38] understand correctly i'm sure the [9:39] comments will [9:40] correct me if i'm wrong [9:42] um the ilx the prior gen only the [9:45] poverty trim level the cheapest model [9:47] got the manual and people were upset so [9:49] they're like all right you guys [9:50] we'll we'll put it only on the expensive [9:52] one i just think from an oem's [9:54] perspective they can't win [9:56] and i think they're just assuming that [9:58] someone who wants to buy an integra [10:00] who's already an enthusiast will just [10:02] cough up the extra money for the manual [10:04] i don't necessarily agree with it but [10:06] i'm sure from a product planning [10:07] perspective [10:08] no one's gonna buy that car anyway once [10:10] the original enthusiasts are done buying [10:12] the manual batches they'll all go cvt [10:14] i'm sure the manufacturing costs of [10:16] having multiple trim levels with [10:19] multiple different transmissions they [10:20] just don't want to deal with and [10:21] probably well didn't right now is [10:23] different than historically right so you [10:24] have a finite amount of production [10:26] capacity that you can actually build [10:28] cars and where [10:30] is the margin right like where are they [10:31] gonna make the most money of course uh [10:34] on putting that manual transmission [10:35] somewhere and how many can they actually [10:37] build so dealerships are probably like [10:39] just get us cars so like okay well we [10:41] can crap out x amount of cars but trying [10:43] to put a manual transmission in every [10:45] trim level at this point [10:47] is very very difficult to do and i [10:49] understand that with the z2 they had [10:51] limited capacity gr86 that video you [10:54] just did about the long-term thing with [10:56] the gre6 there there's comments on there [10:58] like in europe we haven't had we haven't [10:59] even had one delivery of that car yet [11:02] that's how far behind they are so i [11:03] think they're being very cautious about [11:06] not over spreading yeah like trying to [11:08] over uh well you know what i mean [11:11] i mean that's the reality of some of [11:12] these cars that they are putting manual [11:14] gearboxes in like the gr supra you can [11:16] forget about trying to get one [11:18] of those cars yeah i'm sure it's the [11:19] first year it'll be impossible yeah and [11:21] that's the disappointment of this i [11:22] think and you see [11:24] doing the video stuff and you get to see [11:26] comments you get to talk to people about [11:28] it just like enthusiasm [11:30] has gotten so [11:32] um [11:33] the enthusiasm for cars is like decaying [11:35] it's like a cancer because [11:38] price obviously is one huge one right [11:40] huge it's just a really ridiculous and [11:42] then the fact that the you can't get [11:44] things which really puts a damper on if [11:47] you're working hard and you want [11:48] something and you want it like now now [11:50] is like six months for a regular car [11:53] that is that's infuriating and it just [11:55] takes the air out of the room for the [11:56] whole like enthusiast marketplace and [11:59] cars in general it's not just enthusiast [12:00] cars like if i wanted to go buy a rav4 [12:03] like a rav4 hybrid right yeah you can [12:04] forget about it i mean yeah i mean it's [12:06] just it sucks [12:08] and i mean i get it from all sides even [12:10] from like the uh [12:12] it's bad for [12:14] some journalists like us you know we're [12:16] lucky and that some of the oems will [12:17] offer us cars or not it not for free but [12:20] hey you do want to buy one of these even [12:22] then [12:22] like the the gr corolla i'm desperately [12:26] trying to get one to do another [12:27] long-term series for you guys because i [12:29] imagine that's a car that people are [12:30] excited about and i'm genuinely excited [12:32] to buy one they're like good luck [12:34] right well and that's the same thing we [12:36] we have this conversation and i'm in the [12:38] process [12:39] uh i don't want to get into the personal [12:41] side of it but i'm in the process of [12:42] going to be moving to a new place in the [12:45] next like three weeks and you're moving [12:47] as well and i'm like i'm looking at [12:49] money i'm looking at the numbers for the [12:50] year and i'm looking at how everything [12:52] is like [12:53] you know i mean it's just it's it's the [12:54] economy and everything and um like [12:57] gas prices are a great example you know [12:59] you go from [13:01] last year to this year and it's like [13:03] maybe two something a gallon yeah it's [13:06] over double it's over double and then [13:08] like uh i just want to go switch over uh [13:11] utilities for this new place so gas [13:13] electric [13:14] um [13:16] i don't know all the other utility ship [13:17] but when i got on the phone to switch [13:18] over gas i'm like just out of curiosity [13:20] can you tell me the historic prices [13:22] of previous months she's like well i [13:24] will tell you all that but i want to [13:25] precede it by telling you that the cost [13:28] for gas has doubled from [13:31] 0.68 therms or whatever the unit is to [13:34] uh it's just double that like a dollar [13:36] 36 a term so the gas bill is literally [13:39] going to go from 200 to 400 to 400 and [13:42] then the wins are 800 a month [13:44] just just for that and that's excluding [13:46] like the expense of everything else so [13:47] you throw all of that in there and that [13:50] i round about way of saying this jack [13:51] wants to get a gr corolla and it's bet [13:53] people have been asking are you going to [13:54] get a new civic type r and i told them [13:56] you should buy one but at the same time [13:58] it's it's [13:59] more money and it's not cheap anymore [14:01] right like talking about a civic si back [14:03] in the day oh twenty two thousand [14:05] dollars or twenty four thousand yeah i [14:06] could i think i can work that into the [14:08] budget when you're talking about like 45 [14:09] and then when the dealers get a hold of [14:11] you ten to one that thing is going to be [14:12] fifty thousand dude that the car is [14:14] gonna be like 60 grand yeah so it's like [14:16] you're our and at that point i'm done [14:17] with it like literally i will not even [14:19] consider it and go why would you buy [14:21] that when you can get a super or [14:22] whatever it's like i if i wanted a civic [14:24] type bar i can't even get one probably [14:27] and that's just it man cause that so [14:29] frustrating well mikey h is asking if [14:31] you're moving to the villages in florida [14:33] where you can review golf carts [14:35] villages that's in lady lake [14:38] yeah lady lake and uh and actually i [14:40] love the the great biscuits and gravy [14:43] and all the nursing home meals that we [14:45] have there but jack that was one of your [14:47] least it has nothing to do with obsessed [14:49] garage that was his least favorite trip [14:51] you and i have been to a lot of lovely [14:53] places and also not lovely places as [14:55] well some parts of california are [14:56] horrible um [14:58] that by far is the worst place i've ever [15:01] spent time is lady lake that is like my [15:03] version of well okay outside of like [15:05] you know [15:06] gary indiana [15:08] yeah of doing a trip for work that was [15:10] my least favorite location south boston [15:12] where tmi was built i enjoyed more than [15:15] ladylake and i think some of it and like [15:17] i was trying to think about like jack [15:18] because it like lady lake is just [15:21] it's like every cardboard like you could [15:23] look at it looks like every other suburb [15:25] to be fair to it [15:26] it it looks like every other suburb so [15:28] you go down a street applebee's chili's [15:31] like every chain it's so hard the [15:33] average age is like 75. well i thought [15:36] because there were a lot more of an [15:38] older generation that there'd be more [15:39] like diversity in terms of like stuff to [15:41] do people would be more interested in [15:43] like oh local business like all of that [15:45] stuff was just like crazy amount of just [15:48] the same thing and then the traffic was [15:51] held up by golf carts i remember that [15:53] that's what really pissed you off uh [15:55] matt matt mormon was kind enough to let [15:57] me drive the gt3 rs that he has and then [16:00] the first thing i get behind after i [16:01] blow by you guys like an is a [16:02] golf cart yep yeah they're like 25 miles [16:05] an hour oh yeah that we just got out of [16:07] dinner and i don't oh wasn't it bone [16:09] fish yeah yeah and at lea you looked [16:11] outside the bonefish uh window to go to [16:13] our car in right across from bonefish [16:15] was a walgreens drive-through with two [16:17] golf carts lined up to go through the [16:19] the walgreens to pick up prescriptions [16:20] and i'm like it's so weird i mean i get [16:23] it i i mean i i guess i don't get it but [16:26] it's just yeah i can see why you weren't [16:27] really that charmed with it what other [16:30] car topics do you want to discuss uh [16:31] yeah let me look at my list jack before [16:33] we start answering these people's [16:34] questions no and to be fair uh benny b [16:37] just said not that illinois is great it [16:39] is not no [16:41] it is not excellent this is not about us [16:43] being in a better place i mean i'm just [16:45] in general [16:46] all right give me the next topic [16:48] uh the toyota sienna jack [16:53] i told you you should buy one of those [16:54] too all right so the the story with the [16:56] sienna was i got an x7 and i already [16:58] explained that in a previous video [17:01] um and i have no regrets about that [17:03] choice other than it is a lot of money [17:05] and [17:06] i look at it and i think what would be [17:09] the replacement for that because there's [17:10] no way i'm keeping it outside of the uh [17:12] whatever 95 000 mile warranty that i [17:14] have [17:15] um [17:16] and i thought like okay what is going to [17:17] do everything and the sienna [17:19] because of its fuel economy not because [17:21] of anything all well no i mean it's [17:23] completely usable it's a total appliance [17:25] on wheels and now i have one that we're [17:27] kind of doing some long-term stuff on [17:28] because i really want to explore what [17:30] it's like we're going to detroit [17:31] tomorrow to do crv watch the ottomans [17:35] who just kicked it in the camera [17:36] there it is um [17:38] yeah so like we're going to detroit from [17:40] illinois tomorrow on a day trip and just [17:42] on my like 200 mile drive already i'm [17:44] getting almost 40 miles per gallon not [17:46] even trying in in a boat that big [17:49] and you know [17:50] like there's a lot to be said and i i [17:52] thought it was like man this engine is [17:54] dog holy crap is it slow and then i [17:58] realize all i'm doing is sitting in [17:59] traffic so who cares [18:01] exactly and i'm not wasting money and [18:03] it's completely usable so i i don't know [18:06] like i think i'd just love to get back [18:07] to a place where i just have some [18:08] ridiculously fun car and then have a [18:11] total like appliance that wants to suck [18:13] your soul out [18:15] i think [18:16] one of the reasons why i don't think [18:17] you'll mind is i actually really enjoyed [18:19] our long-term benzo that thing as an [18:21] appliance to go to and from iowa in was [18:25] amazing it was comfortable it's quiet [18:26] the lane keeps assist works all right [18:28] yes the the uh [18:30] infotainment of this gun is garbage yeah [18:32] but you just plug in your phone anyway [18:34] it's a total and i didn't give two shits [18:36] about it well yeah yeah i think that's [18:38] the other thing too driving the sienna [18:39] around like as much as [18:41] you lose like pretty much any like [18:44] it's a refrigerator it is it is driving [18:46] a refrigerator around but you're so [18:47] stealth and incognito people like you [18:49] roll past people and you just disappear [18:52] like you're you're like a bot comment [18:54] and like oh you're an npc yeah you are [18:56] the police yeah you become that bc which [18:59] also makes it great because i've been [19:01] able to do some stuff in that [19:02] thing can you drive by people go hey [19:04] there [19:08] i mean nobody's gonna give you hello [19:10] nobody's even gonna well actually okay [19:11] i'm gonna tell a story about this sienna [19:13] i took my dad through the walgreens [19:15] drive through pharmacy drive-thru [19:17] yesterday and um i had an incident with [19:20] somebody but before i get into that wait [19:23] for this commercial [19:25] there's no commercial i was just saying [19:27] that because i wanted to delay this [19:29] story and really drag it out for people [19:31] to sit here for that i thought you're [19:32] going to show them the amazing business [19:34] opportunity that old spice and arby's do [19:38] that do do it right now go on [19:41] youtube and type in old spice and go [19:43] look up their videos they have a [19:45] partnership deal with arby's [19:48] called uh [19:50] what it what's that something about the [19:51] meat sweat the meat sweats they they [19:53] have a thing where somebody's eating [19:54] like a triple decker arby's and you got [19:56] the meat sweats and you got to get the [19:58] old spice meat sweat edition deodorant i [20:01] mean you want to talk about brand [20:03] perfection right there [20:05] i mean are you going to sue them for [20:06] stealing your idea that that if i worked [20:08] there that's exactly what i would have [20:10] done so somebody's genius i hope that [20:12] guy that guy's going to get promoted to [20:13] vp after that [20:15] or fired one or the other [20:18] all right so tell them your story about [20:19] how you're no let's do some let's do [20:21] some questions first then we'll get into [20:23] more like [20:24] vlog or whatever this is so we've [20:25] been inundated by questions already okay [20:28] um i'm gonna bring up two two upcoming [20:30] projects and this will answer one of the [20:32] questions that someone asked already um [20:34] oh my god chris we have a lot of [20:36] questions bear with me [20:38] oh where does this begin chris [20:41] oh god [20:43] oh perfect all right so we have a c606 [20:45] which is being led to us [20:47] by a viewer and i think that's happening [20:49] next week okay uh and we have [20:51] engineering support from gm [20:53] now that i've broken the seal with gm [20:56] uh i will say i've spent a lot of time [20:59] with various engineers and they are [21:02] actually [21:03] now my favorite american car brand to [21:05] deal with from a technical level they [21:06] may not necessarily build all my [21:08] favorite vehicles but you you've now sat [21:11] through a bunch of the interviews it's [21:12] pretty amazing the kind of information [21:13] will go to you if you ask [21:16] i know that that kills you on the inside [21:17] it does pain me but it's it is true at [21:20] least right now the stuff that you've [21:21] been doing there's people that are [21:22] actually engaged and not just engaged [21:25] from a marketing perspective they want [21:27] to talk about why and how they did stuff [21:29] now that that's completely different [21:31] than the end result of how the product [21:33] is yes so i i want to make that very [21:36] clear of you know it's great to tell a [21:38] story from our perspective because it's [21:40] a new product we can't really judge it [21:42] other than okay this is how it was like [21:44] the lyric and the escalade v so the [21:45] lyric the embargo is lifted like the [21:48] lyric to me for i think the launch [21:49] versions were 60 grand [21:51] and i compare that to the gv60 you just [21:54] drove the lyric has more range it has a [21:57] more usable interior it rides better [22:00] i think it's a better car and i mean the [22:02] fact that i'm saying that about a gm ev [22:04] is [22:06] it's double wishbone front and rear [22:08] where that thing isn't like it's a [22:09] better car [22:10] on the surface i i think there's real [22:12] truth to that it's it's hard because [22:15] you know you look at doing this stuff [22:17] and you can probably everybody that's [22:18] watching this can it can speak to this [22:20] based on your own experience with cars [22:22] or your own experience in life you know [22:25] there are biases 100 [22:28] so how do you [22:30] get through some of that to just like in [22:32] our case just talk about what something [22:34] is [22:35] versus like what you feel about it you [22:38] know you don't like korean cars [22:42] okay and other than the launcher which [22:43] is the best front-wheel drive car driven [22:45] and i mean to be fair like the g80 is a [22:47] really good car some of these cars are [22:48] really good but you don't no matter what [22:50] they do [22:51] inherently you're gonna have a problem [22:53] with them and [22:54] this is coming from a korean person yeah [22:57] so yeah i thought you were [22:58] singaporean this dude changes my eraser [23:02] because he's like he's playing the asian [23:03] girl he's like i'm going to be every [23:04] asian so i can fit in every group [23:07] i can't do that i literally i'm just the [23:09] stud [23:12] yeah whatever won't go into that um the [23:13] other project that's coming up i'm [23:15] filming greg's from chicago auto pros [23:18] 987.2 [23:20] cayman s which means nothing to him but [23:22] it's the the cayman that everybody's [23:24] been asking for just keep throwing out [23:26] the numbers yeah i'm gonna bring out my [23:28] spreadsheet i'll tell you [23:30] i need like a decoder ring to figure out [23:32] all these porsche numbers that you're [23:33] always throwing around [23:35] i do i honestly i have gotten better at [23:38] it uh brian dogs thank you for the five [23:40] dollars thank you everyone for that uh [23:42] 0gn thank you for the 20. uh hey you [23:45] guys supporting us always i was the guy [23:48] buying the house you asked what truck to [23:50] get elsa tacoma who owns the six speed [23:52] thank you guys for the arby's update of [23:55] june keep up the good work [23:58] zero i don't know if you bought the taco [24:00] yet but if you didn't it's still a great [24:02] truck and if you did congratulations on [24:04] your bridges congratulations and uh just [24:07] congratulations when you make a million [24:08] dollars on it in like 10 years [24:11] when you sell somebody selling it more [24:12] than 500 000 miles on it and you'll [24:14] still make [24:16] uh captain goof thank you for your 10 [24:18] donation imagine you're now a product [24:20] planner please pitch me [24:23] uh please pitch for me a total [24:25] butchering of an old name plate let me [24:27] suggest the new honda c2000 cuv except [24:31] segment busting feature heated and [24:33] cooled armrests [24:36] man i don't think i could pitch one [24:37] worse than the eclipse cross like that [24:39] one is pretty amazing [24:41] yeah that's really hard [24:43] that that's like i mean we've talked [24:45] about this before like with that with [24:47] the name plates i was actually at [24:49] portillo's okay and they have all this [24:51] old-timey stuff all these advertisements [24:54] on the wall and they had a [24:56] and i i can't remember it was a ford it [24:59] was like grand deluxe or some like name [25:01] and it was showing the marketing [25:03] description it was for the the active [25:05] mother this car [25:07] and it had all the luxury features like [25:09] mahogany wood trim uh mohair carpet like [25:13] all like real materials because there's [25:15] no like plastic composites and i was [25:17] sitting here thinking i'm like [25:19] you know these are all the names like or [25:21] more popular names that you could reboot [25:23] into some cuv but i mean they're also [25:26] cookie cutter you could just basically [25:28] take any name and i don't think anybody [25:29] would care anymore the only people that [25:31] care are the people that have like some [25:32] automotive like knowledge which [25:34] apparently like the blazer is a good [25:36] example everyone hates that [25:37] thing on the internet yeah but they [25:39] sound like a jillian kajillion of them [25:41] yep that i mean because the normal [25:43] person the corvette suv which is coming [25:45] yeah my understanding [25:46] i hate everything about that product [25:49] and i'm sure they're gonna sell everyone [25:50] they make so i can't pitch to you [25:53] anything worse than it's already out [25:54] there i don't know like some of that to [25:56] get it getting off topic a little bit is [25:58] we had that conversation with uh i think [26:00] uh acura about that and [26:03] uh like the one movie that comes to mind [26:05] recently was ghostbusters the not the [26:08] new one but the all-female cast one [26:10] where people [26:11] literally buried that movie [26:14] just from just negative press and like [26:17] like fake reviews and all this just [26:19] literally buried it and i i think [26:21] that's different because cars you could [26:23] never bury because the number of people [26:25] that are enthusiasts about cars are so [26:28] minute compared to the actual people [26:30] that buy them um i don't think people [26:32] even care anymore about rebooting names [26:34] they're like oh that's a cool name i [26:36] have no idea what it is [26:39] anyway it's depressing [26:41] not really it's just business you should [26:44] like that well [26:45] bullying boy over here [26:47] um [26:48] kyle patton thank you for your ten [26:50] dollars been waiting a while for the new [26:52] tundra i hope it's worth it [26:54] it's your your no no like it's i feel [26:57] like it's hot as hell in here but i know [26:59] it's not it's just the heat that you're [27:00] putting off it's your laptop dude this [27:02] thing is like [27:03] it's probably my legs like my legs are [27:06] sweating from being really close yeah [27:08] it's probably the stupid because i don't [27:10] ever turn this laptop on it's my backup [27:12] and every time i turn it on of course [27:13] microsoft anti-malware runs in the [27:15] background and even when i disable the [27:16] service somehow it comes back alive in [27:19] five minutes and runs the cpu at a [27:21] thousand percent for 50 hours uh kyle he [27:25] said he's been waiting for the new [27:26] tundra he hopes it's worth it he's got a [27:29] tundra on order i'm assuming i assume so [27:32] i i yeah i mean there's here there's [27:34] nothing not to like about it honestly [27:36] compared to the last one which is the [27:38] question mark of reliability but it [27:40] probably will be reliable because it's a [27:41] toyota that i i mean anyway on the [27:44] surface you're gonna get it and if it's [27:45] working right you're gonna be like yeah [27:46] this is good we have uh we're closing [27:48] out the tundra videos with a tundra trd [27:51] hybrid uh we get it next week or the [27:53] week after [27:55] um [27:56] jdm flip-flops thank you for the ten [27:57] dollars thank you sir thank you jdm flip [28:00] flops you guys have a lot of love from [28:02] mazda and porsche on the other hand are [28:04] there any brands that have made it a [28:06] royal pain in the ass either get a press [28:08] car for them or get their engineering [28:09] support yes lots of brands are a major [28:12] pain in the ass to do both of those [28:14] things we had a discussion about [28:15] throwing the rep under the bus about a [28:18] certain american oem that isn't gm or [28:20] isn't [28:21] dodge [28:22] volantis you mean oh yes [28:25] uh that isn't either those brands you [28:26] can talk about tesla yeah i'm talking [28:28] about tesla no um talk about another [28:30] american brand you see what the tesla's [28:32] doing by the way they're looking at [28:33] people's badge swipes and seeing who's [28:35] not coming in the office i don't know if [28:37] that's true but if it's true it's [28:38] amazing like they're they're actively [28:40] sending eddie they're sending out emails [28:41] we noticed you haven't been swiping in [28:43] you're not showing up to work when [28:44] you're supposed to you're done [28:47] that's like the power move anyway go [28:49] ahead uh certain brands they just don't [28:51] value it right and i think some of it's [28:52] the reps too like uh drew carey at mazda [28:55] the head of mazda pr is amazing he [28:58] really values engineering the whole [29:00] porsche team and a lot of our toyota [29:02] reps value the technical side of cars [29:05] and they believe that is what should [29:06] sell their product they're different [29:07] than the typical marketing arms and even [29:10] i know you hate gm but look what they're [29:12] doing with z06 i don't hate gm well [29:14] right you don't hate you don't like all [29:16] not all of gm but the the gmz06 whoever [29:19] is running their internal marketing for [29:21] that putting out all those little [29:23] corvette academy videos they're putting [29:24] the engineers first which [29:26] while i agree a lot of the videos are [29:28] quite dumbed down [29:29] they are they're making an effort to [29:32] prioritize engineering in the mainstream [29:33] sometimes that's the most important [29:34] thing to go back to actually answering [29:36] the question because this is a big one [29:39] i had a discussion with jack about this [29:41] person specifically and this person has [29:43] been around the block like literally her [29:47] oops [29:48] the entire career [29:50] has been at multiple different companies [29:51] at multiple levels this is not somebody [29:54] that's just like doesn't know what [29:55] they're doing so when it comes time to [29:57] actually approaching this person [30:00] i just don't think they don't value [30:02] they've been around too long it doesn't [30:03] even factor in this is just we are a [30:06] thorn or we are an obstacle for this [30:09] person to do their job it's too much to [30:11] ask [30:12] at that place in that person's career [30:14] and they do not value us trying to get [30:17] more information request conversations [30:20] with engineers to learn how their [30:21] products work they don't literally it [30:24] could be just this person but it could [30:25] be the company mentality they do not [30:28] care about that and they flat out said [30:30] this is not a good use of our time is [30:32] providing you this information now that [30:34] could be loaded there could be more to [30:36] it but when you look at somebody's [30:37] career which you can and see i've [30:39] already done everything i don't need to [30:41] bend over for this of this outlet or [30:43] whoever this is to give you all that [30:45] information because it's not a good use [30:47] of my time and that from our side is [30:50] really telling about what companies [30:53] really value trying to get information [30:55] out there which are or those that just [30:57] all they give a about is [30:59] controlling the narrative and the [31:00] marketing part um and many companies are [31:03] that way and that's that's how business [31:04] runs they don't need really they don't [31:07] really need marketing it's just an [31:09] exercise for them we got to do this [31:10] let's get it done and over with that's [31:12] all it is and there's nothing wrong with [31:14] it um [31:17] i mean there's a lot of businesses that [31:18] are run like that and to be fair you [31:20] know we are nothing and nobody in the uh [31:22] yeah yeah i mean we're fully aware of [31:24] that [31:24] hopefully that answers your question [31:26] i've been trying to tell jack that [31:27] because he takes it personal when he's [31:28] like trying to do a good job and trying [31:30] to get information and he expects [31:32] companies martin is another good example [31:33] yeah [31:34] i think you have an expectation that [31:35] companies care about this stuff as much [31:37] as you do and that [31:38] that is just not going to be the case [31:41] and you're never going to get [31:44] your [31:44] response you're never going to be happy [31:47] if you have that expectation of people [31:48] utility right now you're going to be [31:49] vastly does it's worked for the brands [31:51] and i built good relationships with [31:53] certain brands that regardless of the [31:55] reps and i are best friends i have a lot [31:57] of respect for them yeah and that's the [31:59] counterpoint right but you also chase [32:01] those people that respect what you're [32:03] doing that appreciate what you're doing [32:04] and trying to go to that you take the [32:06] next step to get you that information [32:08] that you're desperately seeking because [32:10] i think a lot of those reps know that [32:12] it's more work to do what you're doing [32:14] and they they're like this guy is [32:15] actually trying so it elevates their [32:18] performance and elevates the stuff and [32:20] our reps have also learned a lot that [32:21] they didn't know about their own [32:22] products just from us digging deeper [32:25] into some of the questions and while it [32:26] might be useless knowledge i think they [32:28] do appreciate that there's somebody out [32:30] there trying to push them but you know [32:32] it gets exhausting i think that's long [32:34] it's exhausting i'm sure some of the [32:36] engineers after some of these uh [32:38] questions or at least the rapture like [32:39] god i hate this guy no no i know [32:41] we said that before like you you know [32:44] that in the background they're like god [32:45] damn i don't want to be dealing with [32:46] these guys again it's like always 10 [32:48] times more work than if i just talked to [32:51] some like influencer who just wants you [32:52] know like a couple pictures [32:54] yeah yeah exactly uh cool stuff one two [32:57] three [32:58] thank you for your 10 donation i'm cross [33:00] shopping the gr86 premium and c8 1lt [33:04] coupe i have deposits on each at msrp so [33:07] dealer markup isn't an issue is the c8 [33:10] worth twice the price in this case [33:14] if [33:15] the c8 is about it's a better car than [33:17] the gr86 [33:20] is it [33:21] objectively worth twice twice the price [33:24] yes [33:25] if you're it's a and i say this a [33:27] hundred times all these videos what are [33:30] you doing with the car so if you're [33:31] gonna preface a question let's just put [33:33] this out here because if you want a real [33:35] answer you're gonna have to preface this [33:36] by saying this is what i do with my car [33:39] i take it to the track i hard park it in [33:42] the garage and wipe it with you know a [33:44] diaper or my girlfriend's like 10 year [33:46] old underwear [33:47] you i need to know we need to know like [33:49] what you're doing with these things so [33:50] we can help you better understand [33:52] because you know the corvette [33:54] and the 80 the 86 is most fun when [33:56] you're actually driving it flat out on [33:58] the track yes that's a car that's [34:00] engaging to drive but if all you're [34:02] going to do is park it around and you [34:03] want something [34:04] speed excites you that's the wrong car [34:06] you know what i mean so you see it is [34:08] better interior it rides better it's [34:09] faster it's more sophisticated it's just [34:12] more right news to drive fast it's not a [34:14] good driver's car as it it's not a good [34:16] driver's car as it stands as a stock [34:18] vehicle it's set up to understeer like [34:20] crazy it's overly safe it's not really [34:24] that connected feeling you have to do a [34:25] lot to it to make it that way it has [34:27] full alignment capability day one if you [34:28] get the z51 package there are a lot of [34:30] things you can do to negate some of [34:32] those issues and the other question is [34:35] is double the money a big deal to you if [34:37] thirty if sixty five thousand whatever [34:39] holding costs [34:40] is no [34:41] no real difference to your day in and [34:43] day out life versus a thirty one [34:46] thousand dollar e6 get the c8 yeah that [34:49] i mean unless you're just going to go to [34:50] the track there's more to say about it [34:52] but i think you you know where we're [34:54] coming from [34:55] uh [34:56] dan smith thank you for the 20 [34:58] donation hey guys thanks for the [35:00] fantastic videos quick question i'm a [35:01] bigger guy six [35:03] six foot four a larger frame i'm looking [35:05] for a luxury compact suv any [35:08] recommendations under 55 000. [35:12] and i'm six foot so it's hard for me to [35:14] visualize i think about mike [35:16] mike doesn't fit in anything at that [35:18] size mike's even taller isn't he's like [35:19] six five or something yeah mike is mike [35:21] makes me feel like a little dwarf when [35:23] it's that next door he doesn't fit in [35:24] any car so he's like man why don't they [35:26] make these big i'm like dude you're just [35:28] you're in the 90th percentile of size so [35:30] you're on the outside part of what these [35:32] car designers are looking at and [35:33] probably this gentleman as well is going [35:35] to be on the outside of that so it's [35:37] going to be really tough uh let's just [35:38] say our favorite luxury suv is under 55 [35:41] grand we're going to say i'm going to [35:42] say gv70 [35:44] um look you said compact gv70 x3 imagine [35:48] the x3 will probably fit you germans are [35:51] tall [35:52] um i'm i'm discounting rdx out of the [35:54] list now because it's so old [35:56] and that's not big on the inside yeah [35:58] that's not big what else do you like i [36:01] like the but that's that's again that's [36:03] not probably not going to fit him as the [36:04] the [36:05] lexus pile the rx oh the rx but the rx [36:08] is getting refreshed yeah yeah which [36:11] you know i mean i don't know that's a [36:12] four popper only now too i would look at [36:15] personally uh if you want a luxury [36:19] uh [36:20] compact suv x3 or gv70 and i'm a ton is [36:23] in under 55. what else are we missing [36:25] there's got to be some other brands [36:26] there glc i didn't like [36:29] mercedes yeah what other luxury brands [36:31] are there i don't like lincoln's i mean [36:33] the corsair is fine but i wouldn't tell [36:34] you to buy a new lincoln right um [36:36] the small catalog suvs are crap uh what [36:40] about the dodge piles or the g piles [36:42] what are they [36:43] they have no good small ones [36:46] yeah all the small ones are like the [36:47] garbage cans yeah so you're basically if [36:49] you want and he wants luxury so yeah [36:51] basically my mind the q5 is small and [36:53] it's old but it's it's a good car an sq5 [36:56] is great yeah well that's all over that [36:58] sq5 is what like that's got to be like [37:00] 65 000 is that [37:02] yeah around 60 you know but [37:05] no okay yeah well the q5 is great it's [37:07] just very vanilla yeah x3 man if you [37:11] honestly i mean i hate to say that but [37:13] it's rear-wheel drive architecture [37:15] you know it's still 50 50 weight [37:16] distribution out of an suv it's just not [37:19] luxury kind of to me it feels very gv70 [37:22] has a nicer interior it does one hundred [37:23] percent we'll leave it uh let's just [37:25] leave it at that gv70x3 take a look at [37:27] both of those i think you'll hopefully [37:28] fit in one of them this guy's just [37:30] saying genesis because [37:32] to make up for the fact that he's really [37:33] trash they have a predator drone outside [37:35] of this house they're gonna drone strike [37:36] me in my escalator when you see monday's [37:39] video or friday's video uh when it's the [37:41] gv70 or whatever sorry gv60 you'll see [37:44] that it's all shot by me and made by me [37:46] aside from jack making a minimal [37:48] appearance in the shop yeah it's like [37:50] all for jax jack calls me he's like man [37:53] i'm done with this thing [37:55] i spent three minutes under here [37:57] is that enough [37:59] [Laughter] [38:01] um [38:03] sam for five dollars [38:05] i'm competing in a bodybuilding show [38:07] coming up in four weeks please have lots [38:10] of arby's curly fries and red lobster [38:12] biscuits for me [38:14] where do you want them sent i mean we [38:16] got you know my contract now the multi [38:18] my max contract with red lobster i can [38:20] send you biscuits galore [38:23] uh two questions from that are not paid [38:25] that i want to answer that i think are [38:27] hilarious one are we brothers and i'm [38:29] gonna bring up something that came from [38:30] the hawaii trip that will always did you [38:33] tell this one already maybe [38:35] you're going to retell it sorry so we [38:36] are [38:37] now that people have seen like the five [38:39] people moral that have watched their [38:40] hawaii video [38:41] um [38:42] one of the stops we did was at a uh [38:45] basically like a laboratory essentially [38:47] that worked primarily in water [38:48] laboratory what do you for a laboratory [38:52] what do you what country are you from um [38:55] oh that goes into go back to yeah dude [38:57] i'm like 40 countries go back to your [38:59] planet [39:00] no yeah sorry about jeff goldblum or [39:02] girls are easy oh yeah [39:04] um [39:05] man that was a that was a throwback [39:07] that's throwback to what year probably [39:09] 80s [39:10] 90s birth girls no that's probably [39:11] you're probably gina davis is in that [39:13] one too maybe it's all right anyway back [39:15] to the story we're at this place [39:18] um [39:19] for science [39:20] and this lady who is trying to show us [39:23] what you can do with sea salt water salt [39:26] uh was like are you guys brothers you [39:27] guys have the same eyes [39:29] and uh bark and i are obviously not the [39:31] same ethnic background and have no uh [39:35] are we do not share the same parents [39:36] yeah but we have the eyes because we [39:38] both have squinty eyes so apparently [39:40] that means that we're both born she [39:42] didn't see race i'm gonna give her that [39:43] the like the late oh that's why you [39:45] didn't like lady lake because somebody [39:46] said something right not even it's not [39:48] racist i guess it's like speak really [39:49] good english yeah what would you call [39:51] that like it was like i don't know it [39:53] was [39:54] what would be the like the it made me [39:56] laugh no the derogatory term the [39:57] foundation [39:59] no there's a you speak really good [40:00] english no that's like what do they call [40:02] that backhanded compliment no [40:05] what is it when you [40:07] talk about like a gender or a race and [40:09] like put stereotypes on them [40:13] somebody's gonna pick it up like [40:15] oh like if a movie came out and they had [40:17] a white person playing it uh like what [40:19] was that movie with emma stone she [40:20] played my favorite movie ever [40:23] i know aloha yeah she played like an [40:25] asian bradley cooper in it and emma [40:27] stone plays a half korean league okay [40:32] anyway whatever like yeah you [40:35] jack came back to the hotel that night [40:36] he's like you'll never believe this [40:40] the water works to come and he wanted me [40:41] to hold them [40:43] it was like uh it was like uh casino [40:46] royale i got in the shower i was crying [40:48] and you came with [40:50] oh poor jack all right anyway back to [40:52] the questions um [40:55] oh god all right where the am i in [40:56] this i'm sorry guys we're trying to tell [40:58] stories [41:00] uh [41:01] nope nope [41:04] too many too many questions all right [41:06] andrew thank you for the five euros any [41:08] insight to why colors like the recent [41:11] mdx you've viewed aren't more commonly [41:13] offered here's some petrol money for one [41:16] of your small us gallons [41:18] oh the mdx yeah why aren't more [41:20] interesting colors put in press fleets [41:22] or purchased i know i i'm pretty sure i [41:24] said this on the last live stream about [41:26] the the design one of the designers or [41:28] product liners for the old civic the [41:30] the civic that everybody hated when it [41:32] came out like i think the 9th gen [41:35] yeah i think it was the 9th gen so it [41:36] was like super bland and she fought to [41:39] get that lime green and then an orange [41:41] color and the dealers didn't want it and [41:44] it was a huge backlash against her [41:46] because she went to bat for interesting [41:47] color so none of the dealers wanted it [41:49] and they complained and complained up [41:50] the corporate chain and then they didn't [41:52] sell a lot of them that was the the the [41:54] knife in it and she said afterwards i [41:56] will never do that again in my career it [41:58] was just not worth going to bat for [42:00] those extra colors and i think that's [42:02] that's part of it is people don't buy [42:04] them people don't buy them in in mass [42:06] and bulk and just that again it's about [42:08] tying up production to have these [42:09] one-off colors and the dealers are a big [42:11] part they want the mainstream movers how [42:13] can they move the most amount of cars [42:15] possible and the mainstream colors will [42:17] sell way more than the obscure ones and [42:19] it's weird when you meet people who buy [42:21] mainstream color choices they say it's [42:23] because it's eloquent or elegant or [42:25] sophisticated yeah all the adjectives to [42:28] describe but on the counterpoint is like [42:30] you look at some of the audi products [42:32] like now you can it's not paint to [42:33] sample it's like you can see them going [42:35] the spectrum colors you can choose i [42:36] think there's like 30 of them they're [42:38] outside the box that of course you have [42:40] to wait for it takes away the rs3 gets [42:42] crazy colors and we are doing an rs3 [42:45] video and we will be taking it to the [42:46] track oh boy i can't wait for that no [42:49] dude my tent will be pitched no no [42:51] that'll be a product that'll actually be [42:53] fun anyway the paint to sample stuff [42:54] like where you can choose specialty [42:56] colors i think that that would be a good [42:57] way to offset some of the cost like if i [43:00] really wanted a car color [43:02] like some of the badass colors that you [43:04] should be able to choose on cars that [43:05] you're spending now like what fifty [43:07] thousand dollars on anyone i would wait [43:09] a couple months to get a special color i [43:11] wish they would do that but they don't [43:12] have the they don't have it set up and [43:14] they're manufacturing this someone's [43:16] comment dodge the however does do a good [43:18] job with colors all the chargers and [43:20] challengers like i guess plum crazy that [43:22] yeah they use is amazing [43:24] um one of my friends always comments [43:26] like why is it always the box cars [43:28] that have the cool colors you see a [43:30] chevy spark and like teal and purple and [43:32] like the renegades have like crazy [43:34] colors it's like it's weird that they do [43:36] it on like the base like like i just [43:39] think it's a dodge thing i will say i [43:40] mean porsche if you pay twenty thousand [43:42] dollars you can paint your car however [43:43] yeah that's true yeah exactly what a [43:45] deal [43:46] well no that's that's what's the there's [43:48] two levels of pts there's uh there's [43:51] like there's pts and i think pts plus [43:54] this is hyper nerdy and yeah spreadsheet [43:56] up but if you do pts there's a list of [43:58] colors i think it's only seven thousand [44:00] for the list of colors and then to do [44:01] the full blown one where you pick the [44:03] color like you could just take a paint [44:05] twenty degrees it's 20 grand yeah [44:07] um all right anyway daniel oh bendy gave [44:11] us 420 420 4.25 yeah oh [44:15] is it 420 today [44:18] no it's not [44:19] well if somebody's watching this after [44:20] the fact it could be well if you watch [44:22] this next year on 420 [44:23] bendy yeah then you can really celebrate [44:26] uh daniel hellner thank you for the ten [44:29] dollars is there no room in the kingdom [44:31] of heaven for automatic transmission [44:33] enjoyers yeah there is [44:35] hey i used to be all down on the auto [44:37] and in certain cars we've said it like [44:39] the elantra and conant while the conan [44:41] doesn't come with anything else but the [44:42] veloster in it's better as a dual clutch [44:45] i will say like that's a perfect example [44:47] if you're if you're an automatic hater [44:49] you go back five to ten years and go [44:52] drive a hyundai or kia all their [44:54] automatics and what do we say to every [44:55] single one god these things are horrible [44:57] or like the cvt piles like oh man i [45:00] would never get one of these and then [45:02] just see the turnaround literally from [45:04] their first dcts and like the first gen [45:06] d cts that were blowing up and people [45:08] like these are horrible to what they did [45:10] in the new cars to convert you over to [45:12] being like i would rather have the dct [45:14] that's how good it is that's a huge step [45:16] forward um and obviously the future cars [45:18] we're not even gonna be well i guess [45:20] porsche has a multi-speed uh ev but who [45:23] knows if they're gonna do that like all [45:24] these car companies i and i think too [45:26] like certain vehicles [45:28] like the gt3 so we're [45:30] we're doing another gt3 video this [45:32] summer [45:33] big big shock there but it'll be more [45:35] digestible and artsy and fun [45:37] and you know the our rep is a coat [45:40] doesn't matter i'm like i don't care [45:41] what your box is in that car it's [45:43] amazing that's a good point when you [45:45] literally could not care what what [45:46] gearbox is in the car because the car is [45:48] so good the engine regardless of what it [45:50] is [45:50] you can't lose with certain cars yeah [45:52] there are still some really shitty [45:53] automatics out there yes there are but [45:55] there are some bad automatics if you buy [45:57] an automatic you can still go to heaven [45:59] daniel uh stephen thompson for five [46:01] dollars thoughts on the previous gen g80 [46:04] v8 it seems like a great use value in [46:06] the mid 30s [46:07] yeah and i i was gonna buy a g80 v8 um [46:11] and that engine like there wasn't a lot [46:13] of good and i didn't to be fair i didn't [46:15] know a hyundai uh hyundai mechanic at [46:17] that time so i was really nervous about [46:20] it but i think the only thing from my [46:22] research back then was [46:23] certain engines had a shitload of oil [46:25] consumption issues like oil consumption [46:28] was the biggest what else would you buy [46:29] used in that price range the luxury suv [46:32] uh the uh [46:34] the v8 pile and the gs the gsf gsf is [46:37] not 30 grand oh it's got to be 30 in the [46:40] mid 30s oh god there's not much not with [46:43] a v8 like you'd have to go to like old [46:45] like legacy yeah that's hard to pick but [46:47] just saying regular what would you buy [46:49] use as a luxury sedan on that price did [46:51] you get a gs or an es on that price [46:52] range i'd personally i get an es i know [46:55] that's that's like boring as hell but it [46:57] does it's so well [47:00] to get a used es in this generation is [47:03] going to be impossible for 30 000 so [47:05] that would lead you back into the old gs [47:08] with a v6 [47:09] the previous gs and then probably an old [47:12] ls500 you could probably find an old [47:14] ls500 for maybe 40. yeah that thing [47:17] would be amazing yeah just above the [47:20] boat i mean that that's a tough one man [47:21] that's not a lot of money to work with [47:23] if you want luxury yeah purely if you [47:26] want a luxury car right there's a lot of [47:27] great options in the 30s oh yeah yeah [47:29] you always buy a used five series with a [47:31] long ass warranty yeah that that's true [47:33] you'd have to i think so people ask this [47:35] a lot i've seen a lot of questions like [47:36] what extended warranty would you buy [47:39] and i've had to do a lot of research [47:40] because i was doing this when i bought [47:41] the x7 used because bmw doesn't do their [47:44] own aftermarket warranties so um [47:49] the one of the best aftermarket [47:50] warranties is fidelity right now so if [47:53] you're if you're looking to get a used [47:54] car and you're looking for an [47:55] aftermarket warranty fidelity is really [47:57] safe and they're fair if you sell the [47:58] car and you get your money back and all [48:00] that so [48:01] that's just a tip for you [48:03] uh all right back to the questions and [48:05] this one made me smile earlier [48:07] robert patrick has assured that you can [48:09] get girl drink drunk [48:13] have yourself a round of chocolate chew [48:15] chews on me [48:16] i currently have decently optioned 718 [48:20] no lsd or ptv but i enjoy driving it is [48:24] a gts 4 liter really worth the upgrade [48:27] i'd see track days and road trips [48:30] it would see track days and road trips [48:32] absolutely the 4 liter is amazing [48:34] yeah it is [48:36] yeah i'll i'll leave it at that it's a [48:37] special car i mean it's not the the old [48:40] you know [48:41] it's not [48:42] gt4 rs [48:44] but the 4-liter i mean it's it's got its [48:46] roots that they're all very have [48:48] similarities to it so that's a [48:49] no-brainer if you're going from the four [48:51] popper yeah to the flat six yeah and you [48:54] don't care that you're gonna have a lot [48:56] of money [48:57] absolutely worth the money get it as a [49:00] manual too that's a car i think yeah [49:02] it's not it's not fast enough yeah and [49:04] the the pdk and the for the the non ar [49:08] or the non gt products are slightly [49:10] different the way that they're tuned [49:11] they're not as juicy i'll just put it [49:13] that way [49:14] uh gregory ames no arby's oh thank you [49:17] gregory for the five dollars no arby's [49:19] tonight thoughts on the audi e-tron well [49:22] we're getting an e-tron press car so you [49:24] can uh [49:25] feel free to wait for that i guess in [49:27] the market for a family hauler hate the [49:29] model y waiting to see a pulse r3 price [49:32] range [49:34] yeah you know i'm i've after seeing all [49:36] the volvo stuff it's like i i'm really [49:39] pulling for them to to fix their cars [49:42] with the ev part of it but it's so hard [49:44] because you know it's not like [49:46] they're gonna take probably two more [49:48] generations to get evs that are just [49:50] like amazing and they're they're close [49:52] now but [49:53] i i'm looking forward to seeing their [49:55] cars in 2030 and let's just put it that [49:56] way i'm going to answer about six more [49:59] questions and tell your story then i'll [50:00] go back to answering questions [50:02] yeah uh motive engineering for two [50:04] dollars still planning on a c606 video [50:07] if you're tuning in i have spoken to the [50:10] small block team who designed the ls7 [50:12] and we are getting a c606 2009 [50:16] next week from a very very kind viewer [50:19] named dan can you explain a little bit [50:21] like about your call just so people [50:23] understand yeah sue i worked i had a [50:25] call with probably five or six members [50:27] senior members of the gm small block [50:29] team [50:30] so the way gm works obviously you have [50:32] your individual engineering teams for [50:33] different products then you have your [50:35] product line engineers as well chief [50:37] engineers blah blah blah i spoke to some [50:40] of the gentlemen who have worked for gm [50:42] for like 30 years and this specific team [50:44] designed the ls7 and the new lt6 they've [50:48] worked on basically every iteration of [50:50] v8 you can think of from last 20 years [50:52] there were five of them it was a pretty [50:55] just normal conversation more [50:58] they let me ask some difficult questions [51:00] about lifters and all that other [51:01] nonsense and you know valve train issues [51:03] but as well they explained what their [51:06] process was to design the ls7 what the [51:08] leadership wanted what the corvette team [51:10] wanted and they walked through why they [51:11] loved that motor so much still and how [51:13] did you what was your impression of [51:15] talking to them like did you feel that [51:18] they were still passionate that they [51:19] watched to talk about it after this long [51:20] they um [51:22] it's a corny phrase but i think after [51:24] meeting more and more gm engineers and [51:26] i'm going to say this about gm here in a [51:28] second next too but um [51:30] they said that they they basically do [51:32] the sports car stuff for free oh really [51:34] that's what it is that's that's that's [51:36] how they treat their job so like they [51:38] know they're there to design v8s for [51:41] tahoe and silverado and all other [51:44] nonsense but [51:45] they'll work on the uh sports car [51:48] products like the ls7 after hours [51:50] because they want to because that's [51:52] that's like what they're passionate [51:53] about they're not just doing like a [51:54] cookie cutter you know the car the motor [51:57] is badass have you ever if you've ever [51:58] heard an ls7 as you're about to drive [52:00] one and i will too i'm really excited [52:02] because that motor [52:03] i don't think a lot of gm v8s have a lot [52:05] of character that commodore has a donut [52:07] i'll be interested to drive it like i [52:09] like i say this all the time like i [52:10] don't really get excited until i'm [52:12] actually driving it and you'll catch me [52:13] like caught off guard where i'm like oh [52:15] my god this is actually amazing and it's [52:16] pretty genuine [52:18] uh [52:19] bradley berry thank you so much for the [52:21] fifty dollars thank you and thank you to [52:22] everybody who's

back to my gm thing [52:53] so gm has three divisions in my mind [52:56] that i've spoken to or [52:57] three three levels of teams you have the [53:01] truck team which have unlimited [53:03] resources and limited money and trucks [53:06] are hard to debate whether they're good [53:07] or not because everybody has their own [53:09] opinions it's like religions you have [53:10] the sports car team who make things like [53:12] the zl1 the corvette and like the black [53:15] wing those guys make amazing cars and [53:18] then you have the shitbox gm products [53:20] like the tracks yeah the encores of the [53:23] world it's like the b team stuff the b [53:25] team stuff that's [53:27] uh blazer equinox all that crap [53:31] that's one of those products the encore [53:33] okay yeah i mean i i i would agree with [53:35] you i think doing this more you have an [53:37] enclave sorry i wouldn't say a better [53:38] respect but you understand that like [53:40] okay you're not gonna put your senior [53:42] level people on cars that are just like [53:44] they out right they're just trying [53:46] to fill that hole and we we i was [53:48] talking about this with bmw [53:50] like why do you have an x one two three [53:52] four five six seven eight and nine and [53:54] it's like they're literally just trying [53:55] to plug holes so they have that in [53:57] between well our customers want this we [53:59] don't have it so we got to fill the gap [54:01] and like how is that cost effective but [54:02] it's also a way for engineers to cut [54:04] their teeth on like products that are [54:06] far less important [54:08] so the the young workforce can come in [54:10] screw that up and then actually work on [54:13] a product that matters so some of it is [54:15] that too [54:17] all right and two more and then we'll [54:19] tell your story okay real stories [54:23] for ten dollars thank you [54:25] uh some of the elantra and models are [54:27] broken from the dealership missing a [54:29] pedal [54:30] huh [54:31] with time the six speed will be more [54:33] sought after than the dct enjoy your [54:35] automatic [54:36] suckers you're probably not wrong your [54:39] launch ran as a manual be worth more [54:41] money [54:41] that's i mean that's the reality of [54:43] manual cars in general i mean [54:45] so you just don't get me wrong i i don't [54:47] want to on the automatic stuff [54:50] because certain people cannot drive [54:51] manual that that's totally fine my point [54:53] is that automatics have gotten so good [54:55] that in some cases like you really can [54:58] still get that much enjoyment there's [54:59] not it's not a dirty word however [55:01] because there's so little manuals and so [55:04] it's harder to find them in terms of a [55:06] long-term investment if you can drive a [55:08] manual you're almost better off doing [55:10] that because when you go to flip it i [55:12] mean you're certain cars of course it's [55:14] gonna be gone you're gonna have like 10 [55:15] offers on it in two days like oh my god [55:17] i can't find this as long as you take [55:18] good care of it um it's always going to [55:20] be easy to sell [55:22] that's the truth right all i mean like [55:24] c7 is a good example i keep looking at [55:26] prices because i don't know what to do [55:27] with my car if i get what i'm trying to [55:29] get [55:29] um the automatics are worthless in [55:32] comparison to the manual yeah old [55:33] porsches are that way no one wants a [55:35] manual i mean a pdk [55:37] not nobody but less people want the the [55:40] manual gt car i mean the automatic gt [55:42] cars uh torledge thank you for your five [55:44] dollars thank yous morgan s thank you [55:46] for your fifty dollars oh [55:48] what are we doing here what are we what [55:50] he's asking about the chevy spark mark [55:51] oh is he yeah for 50 bucks he's asking [55:53] about the chevy smart don't worry i'm [55:55] ready mentally for this one uh would you [55:56] guys consider reviewing a chevy spark [55:58] the cheapest new car in the u.s doesn't [56:00] seem like doesn't seem to be a total [56:02] pile and it's getting discontinued in [56:04] august [56:05] the chances of us actually getting a [56:07] spark from from gm why they would even [56:09] spend the money the 600 plus dollars to [56:12] have it [56:13] glowed out when they're killing it off i [56:16] mean i honestly uh a friend [56:18] wanted to get one i did a test drive and [56:21] one of them and i was biting my tongue [56:23] the whole time i was in it and by the [56:25] end of the test drive i'm like [56:27] it wasn't it's bad how cheap is it [56:30] well what they wanted to sell it for was [56:32] like 25 000 they had they were like [56:35] trying to mark it up what yeah because [56:37] there was it was hard to find at that [56:39] time there wasn't a lot of them but i [56:40] mean i think the base prices [56:42] don't quote me but somewhere around like [56:44] 16. [56:46] i think i think 16 grand for a new car [56:48] 16 18 probably whatever i don't know i [56:51] could be totally wrong but i know it's [56:52] cheap and it really other than knowing [56:55] that it was like kind of a box and [56:58] you remove yourself of it it was [57:00] actually good to drive [57:02] it was not bad to drive it's not mini [57:04] cooper like you get a mini coop you're [57:05] like holy this thing's way better [57:07] for like a micro car but [57:09] i don't know if you're on a tight budget [57:10] you need a small car [57:13] not the end of the world someone says [57:15] it's starting thirteen thousand six [57:16] hundred dollars okay so by the time you [57:18] probably get one option with a couple [57:19] things that's like 14 or 15 grand they [57:22] wanted 25 grand yeah because this that [57:24] was like a weird color combination and [57:26] like it there was none in like a 400 [57:29] mile range [57:31] like like a geography what a deal [57:35] all right last one before your story [57:36] that's dealerships man forgetful foot [57:38] for five dollars thank you can't wait to [57:40] see you guys do a 987 or 987.2 cayman [57:44] boxster video well as i mentioned [57:46] earlier we are doing one all right mark [57:48] tell your story uh so i wanted to go up [57:50] the beaten path a little bit jeff all [57:51] right tell me about it you know i think [57:54] about these these live streams and [57:55] people come here to watch and listen to [57:57] us about car stuff [57:59] um but after a while you get a little [58:01] bit uh tone deaf about things that are [58:03] going you're talking i'm gonna grab my [58:05] bottle yeah this guy's talking out on [58:06] this one yeah i'm just gonna leave um [58:10] i i kind of wanted to say this as like a [58:12] positive thing [58:14] because i think at least in the united [58:16] states and a lot of people like message [58:18] us like what the going on with [58:20] your country and all that and i don't [58:22] want to get in any of the politics of it [58:24] um [58:25] but i think there's a lot of people that [58:27] are not doing well right now with [58:28] everything going on and [58:31] i i see it i see things on both i try to [58:34] like it's part of doing these videos [58:35] right you have to connect with a lot of [58:37] people i can't just go out and trash [58:39] something because somebody might [58:42] actually really like that um and it's [58:44] hard to balance that so you have to you [58:46] have to watch and be [58:49] uh no it's not just careful it's it's [58:51] appreciate the fact that other people do [58:53] not share the same mindset or feelings [58:55] as you do so it's kind of trying to [58:57] understand both sides and it makes you [58:58] better at talking about things and [58:59] understanding [59:01] um [59:02] so [59:03] i saw something recently that somebody [59:05] had sent me on instagram dms [59:07] and it was like a personal question like [59:09] what do you think about it and i think i [59:11] talked to you about this it was uh [59:14] donald trump jr [59:16] talking about like all he does is post [59:18] memes on his instagram profile and i've [59:19] never seen it before but it was all like [59:22] basically baiting like teasing the [59:24] monkeys i thought you know with this [59:26] much power why would you want to like [59:28] make people feel even more uncomfortable [59:30] even know if you didn't do it and that [59:32] very night [59:34] it was just on hulu chelsea handler took [59:36] over uh what's his name jimmy kimmel [59:38] show [59:39] holy it was just the opposite it [59:42] was like taking a piss on the other side [59:45] like these two polar extremes people [59:47] that have [59:48] huge voices [59:49] huge voices like you're talking to [59:52] millions of people and you all you want [59:54] to do [59:55] is put a wedge between people and [59:58] it made me think about like how could [60:00] you do this better like how do you find [60:02] a middle ground where you're not just [60:03] pissing people off all the time [60:05] trying to bring people together more and [60:08] like it made me think about my own self [60:09] like the i did when i was younger [60:11] like i didn't give a i didn't think [60:12] about that the fact that you could say [60:14] something it can really bother people or [60:16] hurt people's feelings and you you [60:18] divide like the group and it's like a [60:20] inner circle of fighting and that's what [60:21] the internet's become and [60:23] i i don't know if it's age but i'm i i [60:26] thought about what we're doing how do we [60:28] bring how do you even though this is [60:30] cars i mean cars and technology it's [60:33] like the seemingly most meaningless [60:35] thing but there's clearly people here [60:38] there's people that are interested in [60:39] not only car opinions but other stuff [60:41] there's companies we work with who [60:43] value and respect some of your opinions [60:46] how do you get everybody together where [60:47] you're like trying to [60:49] to learn from them [60:51] learn your stories hear your side of [60:53] while also trying to balance out [60:55] our side and not be hyper biased and [60:57] bring people together and i wish there [61:00] was [61:01] and again it goes back to these [61:02] questions that i get people are looking [61:04] for community i think yeah [61:06] you know a lot of people find community [61:08] there was a interview that i listened to [61:10] recently there's a guy he works for the [61:12] daily show it was [61:14] the comedian's name he was talking about [61:16] going to all these uh like very far [61:18] right um [61:19] the growlies for our former president [61:21] and one of the things he said regardless [61:23] if i agree with him or not i'm not [61:24] trying to get political on this but [61:26] these people are looking for community [61:27] just like people on the far left look [61:29] for community and hopefully [61:32] by doing car stuff or technology people [61:34] can find a community in a more [61:36] constructive way versus [61:38] now you can like you can be on either [61:40] political spectrum yeah yeah and like [61:42] cars and technology and that'll be your [61:44] common ground because if you find common [61:45] ground with someone right you're more [61:47] likely to [61:48] uh [61:50] hopefully view them as a human being [61:52] versus you see something else yeah and [61:53] that's kind of what i was getting at is [61:55] there's there's a level of humanity that [61:57] i feel like is being lost right now and [61:58] all this and even people with a lot [62:01] of power [62:02] and a lot of like influence and there [62:04] there's some really really insanely [62:06] smart people and i know you know this [62:08] and it it's whether you agree or [62:10] disagree i think certain people [62:12] that have this power don't know [62:15] the the actual effect [62:17] or the power they wield and they don't [62:19] know when to shut their mouth like [62:20] literally don't know when they've [62:22] crossed the line where not only are they [62:24] alienating other people but they're also [62:27] like hurting them like hurting [62:30] everybody that's in this community by [62:31] like driving a wedge and i need [62:34] personally that that's what this is [62:35] about i want to try to do a better job [62:37] of being more accessible [62:39] to to teach people and not like make it [62:42] like not posting or all [62:44] over somebody because i don't agree with [62:46] it and i've done a bad job with certain [62:48] cars and certain topics that we discover [62:50] and i don't want it to come across like [62:52] i don't care like i i'm not the i'm not [62:55] a pretentious person i do expect the [62:57] level of quality of course i have high [62:59] expectations that people actually do the [63:01] work and put the effort in with a lot of [63:03] the stuff um but i don't want to be like [63:05] being divisive i will bring up i like [63:08] that there's a nice like angle of just [63:09] some of our crotches in this and this oh [63:10] yeah yeah i mean it's huge [63:13] and part of this is just like trying to [63:15] trying to we got to get more sponsors [63:17] this whole pitch is to get more really [63:19] what my point was is i need sponsorship [63:21] money to get inflated down there and uh [63:23] i need to turn back the clock 20 years [63:25] so i can connect with the new [63:27] demographic that i'm losing out by on by [63:30] aging out jack that's what this really [63:31] was about okay good i mean i've been [63:33] working hard on our rogaine sponsorship [63:35] so what so the question is then game of [63:38] thrones conversation is how do you [63:40] do stuff and even in your own lives how [63:42] do you connect like either at work or [63:45] relationships how do you hear [63:47] and listen to alternating opinions and [63:49] the automatic transmission versus manual [63:51] one is a really good debate because [63:53] there's a lot of people that like hate [63:55] this discussion because it's like [63:57] pitting two groups of enthusiasts [63:58] against each other because the the [64:00] manual crowd like the save the manuals [64:02] thing gets real pretentious about oh god [64:04] if you drive an automatic you're a piece [64:06] of or that that line from the boys [64:09] did you see that the guy's like [64:11] did your brain [64:12] did your stupid brain the id or did [64:15] or you did your idiot brain the [64:16] stupid part of it or something like just [64:18] derogatory that's what people hear when [64:20] you talk about automatics in a bad way [64:22] so like how do you do a better job of [64:24] like trying to just don't speak down to [64:26] people about it or just don't talk about [64:28] it yeah ignore it and get back to the [64:29] car questions perfect all right let's go [64:31] back to the car questions mark [64:33] oh crap [64:35] all right perfect uh [64:37] mergle do [64:39] for ten dollars thank you mergle do i am

[70:20] yeah that's too fast had one it got [70:22] totaled recently he had oh no it was [70:24] just the one car i'm thinking of [70:25] somebody else no he had the uh he had [70:27] the ctr then oh that's right this guy's [70:30] like he's just trying to get out of [70:31] these cars and following yeah he [70:33] purposely street parks them or something [70:35] no yeah he pokes them in the middle of a [70:36] highway like oh man this guy can't [70:38] believe this guy t-boned me [70:40] uh no yeah that poor pass if he bought a [70:42] ctr i think he had it for a couple weeks [70:44] and i think he got rear-ended i'm [70:45] surprised he got a ctr [70:47] yeah anyway uh he loved it and uh [70:51] yeah we're talking about a guy that [70:52] nobody knows who the hell we're talking [70:53] about tom thomas from uh [70:56] yeah throttle throttle host yeah he has [70:58] one as well and he loves it allegedly [71:01] so people were asking about what you [71:02] think of throttle house [71:04] they're [71:04] uh i talked to james [71:07] somewhat regularly at like three in the [71:08] morning three in the morning i'm like [71:10] send me pics of your shins [71:12] um [71:14] they're uh karsten is extraordinarily [71:16] talented [71:17] given like how how quickly he has to [71:20] film some of this i'm really [71:21] impressed by them they seem like nice [71:22] guys [71:23] what are your opinions you hate them oh [71:26] well considering my my bone-headed [71:28] conversation earlier i'm going to drive [71:30] a wedge these guys are pieces of [71:33] don't come to america [71:35] okay too many commitments in my country [71:37] you're going to bring your all your [71:38] talent here i'll show you talent [71:40] um [71:44] on w uh for five dollars hey guys what [71:48] are your thoughts on motorcycles as a [71:49] hobby i recently got a yamaha [71:51] access yamaha [71:55] xs rs 700 and absolutely loving it [71:59] i love bikes [72:00] god that would you is that the bot [72:02] answer yeah hey i love i love bikes i [72:05] used to be an adventurer [72:07] let me check your code real quick okay i [72:09] just adjusted motorcycles i've had like [72:11] four four four bikes i still have my [72:14] street triple r i love bikes you're just [72:16] out here [72:17] i'm gonna get run over by somebody and [72:19] there's nowhere to ride [72:21] unless you want to ride in a straight [72:22] line there are a lot of npcs out here a [72:25] lot of npcs [72:27] so i'm going to go back i'm going to [72:28] recover my conversation that i kind of [72:30] botched earlier i didn't have a full [72:31] thought so that's conversation about the [72:33] sienna that i started talking about i [72:35] came out of the drive-thru at walgreens [72:37] with my dad and [72:40] it's just one way out [72:42] you know all you can do is go forward [72:43] and then it cuts over to like a stop [72:45] sign and i'm like go to the right and [72:47] there's a car coming the other way so [72:48] we're like this and then there's a guy [72:50] behind this guy in my lane right in [72:53] front of me so i'm like i stopped there [72:54] because clearly this guy doesn't [72:56] understand that it's a two-lane road and [72:59] he looks at me and pulls up and rolls [73:01] down his window and is swearing at me he [73:03] literally is going off the deep end at [73:06] me because he thought i was going the [73:09] wrong way [73:10] even though i just came out of the [73:11] drive-through which there's a sign there [73:13] for that [73:14] and i'm thinking to myself this guy is [73:15] completely [73:16] ir i mean he's got to get a 10. he's out [73:18] of 10 and he's in the wrong and he [73:20] doesn't even know it i'm sitting here [73:22] thinking my first reaction was like [73:25] like i was actually in an okay mood but [73:27] if i was at the wrong place in time i [73:29] probably would have created a [73:30] provocative situation like sean connery [73:33] and i thought to myself like why is this [73:34] guy getting so amped up when he's so [73:36] wrong [73:37] and [73:38] i'm like i guess [73:40] some part of me wanted to escalate that [73:43] i wanted to like i really wanted to roll [73:45] down the window and be like [73:48] just [73:49] just go off and then and i'm like my [73:51] dad's in the car i'm like because you [73:52] were driving a minivan you watched [73:54] unhinged yeah that's true you're in a [73:56] sienna like russell crowe i mean i don't [73:58] think it would i thought like 100 [74:00] because i was in a minivan this guy [74:02] would have just been like just okay this [74:04] guy's got no life i'm not even gonna [74:06] yell at him [74:07] um and there was something else that [74:08] happened right after that it just it's [74:10] the instantaneous anger of people on the [74:12] road even when they're in not like it's [74:15] questionable that they shouldn't be [74:17] angry about it but why is like always [74:19] the first reaction anger [74:22] like i mean i think it's just a base [74:23] human reaction when people get scared or [74:26] they get bothered in any way they go to [74:28] attend for no reason did we talk [74:30] about we i know i brought it up last [74:32] time this last video about carton arcs [74:36] okay so greg my buddy greg he posted on [74:38] our one of our chat things about carton [74:40] arcs and it's this dude who goes in [74:42] parking lots and looks for people that [74:45] left their cart just look it up on [74:46] youtube if you haven't seen it [74:48] this dude goes to parking lots with like [74:50] a wand and like a vest and he looks for [74:52] people that literally do not put their [74:54] cards back in the cart corral or [74:56] whatever you want to call it the cart [74:58] storage leave it right next to their car [75:00] because they're so lazy and then he [75:01] calls them out on the fact that they [75:03] left their card out and i mean obviously [75:05] he only posts the most [75:07] you know ridiculous ones where people go [75:09] off on them but it's unbelievable to me [75:11] that you could go through all these [75:13] videos and see how angry people get one [75:15] of the comments said someone one of the [75:16] videos he got a gun pulled on them i [75:18] didn't see that one i i know nothing [75:21] about what you're talking about okay but [75:22] the immediate reaction is yes he's [75:25] poking the bear which i get right that's [75:27] the only way he'd have views on the [75:28] internet if he was poking the bear but [75:30] the fundamental principle is [75:32] if you're approached by somebody in a [75:34] parking lot that says hey can you return [75:36] your cart i'm gonna put a magnet on your [75:38] car saying that you're a lazy bones he [75:40] calls people lazy bones it's stupid um [75:43] and it's like he's trying to tell them [75:45] by you leaving the cart here somebody [75:47] can't park here or you can damage [75:48] somebody else's property that's that's [75:50] the overwhelming thing other than [75:52] telling people they're lazy for not [75:54] returning the cards and these people [75:55] they do not unders like they literally [75:57] cannot process that thought of a lot of [76:00] the excuses are i pay people i pay to [76:03] shop here they should move the cart [76:04] forward i was i was talking to alex my [76:06] buddy alex about this and nothing new [76:08] carton arts but he was saying like one [76:10] of the societal tests that you're a good [76:11] person or not is you put away your [76:13] shopping cart because you aren't you [76:15] aren't incentivized to put back your [76:16] shopping cart but you're doing it to be [76:18] a good [76:19] just to be a responsible human being and [76:21] people who don't do that or but these [76:23] the the people that are freaking out [76:25] obviously are being pushed to the limit [76:27] right they're they're like being pushed [76:28] to have this reaction more [76:29] idiots to begin with but to the again [76:32] it's about the de-escalation you have [76:33] that choice of like this guy's nuts he's [76:36] actually standing out here with a wand [76:37] and a vest to get me to return my cart [76:39] out of just out of the pure funniness of [76:42] it i'm gonna return my cart and like [76:43] de-escalate it and laugh and then he [76:45] doesn't have any content but the people [76:47] that will literally chase him or create [76:49] like calling the cops or going into the [76:50] store to complain to the manager that [76:52] somebody asked them to put their card [76:53] away it's that [76:54] i i don't think they look at the [76:56] property part like you and i think the [76:58] cart is going to damage a car right just [77:00] the property damage part is enough alone [77:02] to do that but okay you rule that out [77:05] you don't care about other people's [77:06] property what would be the incentive to [77:08] get somebody to return their car in some [77:10] airports they give you like a penny or [77:11] something but wait i mean the little [77:13] trolleys [77:15] do people are [77:16] it's weird like again it's about the car [77:18] part like this dude freaking out about [77:20] me and even though he was in the wrong [77:21] way but he was yelling at me like it's [77:23] the same mentality with people in cars [77:26] do you think cars embolden people to [77:28] become more like i think people forget [77:30] it's like the cars are kind of like the [77:31] internet yeah or in that there's a [77:33] community who said this it's like you [77:34] know if you were if you were in line at [77:37] the store and somebody cut you off or [77:39] you were in an elevator and someone [77:40] bumped in front of you [77:42] you there's no way you would say what do [77:44] you you know what you would in a car you [77:46] want to like flip them off and scream at [77:47] them right that's true cars embolden [77:49] people and i think it's like the [77:50] internet right you think they they think [77:52] they can hide or be shielded by it it's [77:54] that's a good point like and that's some [77:56] of the stuff with the internet that's [77:57] become more prevalent and i thought [77:59] about this today on the way here because [78:00] i really screwed up my point earlier but [78:03] the the the thing with [78:05] um the internet in social media is [78:07] really interesting because it in the [78:09] past i would say when do you think [78:11] social media really was prevalent like [78:13] 15 years in the past 15 years [78:15] realistically when it's become real [78:17] i think the last 10 years is where it's [78:19] just been supercharged okay so 10 years [78:22] you've created a fundamental new global [78:24] language like it really is a new [78:26] language for people they have to learn [78:28] how to not only interact without [78:30] interacting to your point like you could [78:32] not go into the office in a major job [78:35] and get away with saying half the [78:37] that we say on the internet you would be [78:39] without a job there's there's no [78:41] standard for internet like communication [78:44] for a lot of people and it's because [78:46] it's these two separate worlds i feel [78:48] like the car thing is very similar like [78:52] you couldn't go up to somebody in a [78:53] store to your point like if there was [78:54] some lady that like literally walked in [78:56] front of me i would have to have some [78:57] couth about coming up like ma'am you [78:59] just cut me off or a guy it doesn't [79:01] matter i'm not talking about i'm not it [79:03] could be anybody like you literally [79:04] stepped in front of me and took my spot [79:06] you know and that you'd have a normal [79:08] dialogue hopefully where the person [79:09] would be like oh go yourself i'm [79:11] gonna kill you i'm gonna kill your [79:13] family but on the internet or in the [79:15] cars people go from like normal human [79:17] beings to like pure ape like pure [79:21] silverback style and it's just the [79:23] psychology behind it fascinates me and [79:26] also why i was so triggered i was ready [79:28] to turn into an ape with my dad in the [79:30] car you know what i mean like why is it [79:32] so like because you're i don't know man [79:35] anyway back to questions mark [79:37] uh [79:38] oh one of them one of the non-paid [79:40] questions that came up like five times [79:42] is why are you okay with the challenger [79:45] scat pack or whatever the hell the v8 [79:47] model is and not the kia stinger [79:52] because the scat pack [79:55] has a v8 [79:57] and a zf transmission and double [79:59] wishbone suspension [80:01] uh no that's that's that's a fair [80:03] question the stinger [80:05] i i think fundamentally what bothers me [80:08] about the stinger and i know you will [80:09] probably agree because it's a korean car [80:12] is they took a really great platform [80:15] nerfed it and then tried to over market [80:17] the hell out of it into something that [80:19] it wasn't and then when you drive it [80:21] knowing that they were essentially [80:23] trying to copy a mercedes [80:25] audi bmw to try to become a german car [80:28] and then you drive it and realize it's [80:30] nothing like the german cars that it's [80:31] trying to be it's like a budget [80:33] rear-wheel drive car that doesn't have [80:35] the great dynamics and to be fair the [80:37] scat pack does not [80:39] either but the scat pack [80:41] makes noises it has a great automatic [80:43] transmission [80:45] or you can get it doesn't matter and a [80:46] real manual that's great and you can go [80:49] sideways [80:50] with no electronics hampering your [80:52] driving experience and if there it's a [80:54] real like muscle car feel whereas [80:57] the stinger is hyper confused that it [80:59] was trying to be something it was what [81:01] they were trying to do they were not [81:02] honest about that's why i don't like [81:04] it's not an honest card that doesn't [81:06] mean it's bad because like you can make [81:08] the same argument about like the audi s [81:10] whatever pile it is the copycat [81:13] someone's already answered your question [81:14] for you red wine is fine just said [81:16] because the stinger never won at [81:18] wrestlemania [81:19] [Laughter] [81:20] okay leave it at that [81:23] the the people the people on the [81:24] comments of people watching this are [81:26] infinitely smarter than we are combined [81:29] so now you need to pool your ai like all [81:32] your consciousness i'm gonna upload you [81:33] into the matrix yeah you can answer [81:35] these questions change your code and [81:36] i'll just be as smart as everybody on [81:38] here uh [81:40] alex t for five dollars is someone [81:42] planning to learn manual soon will the [81:44] civic si slash integra be the best daily [81:46] driver option of all things considered [81:48] probably [81:50] i mean i don't know about the integra [81:51] because of the cost excuse me i have a [81:53] business meeting i have to attend to [81:55] answer a couple questions look [81:58] i know you hate me already it's okay [82:02] i'll be back you're gonna meet your mic [82:03] this time no it's not i'm not actually [82:05] going to the toilet [82:08] um [82:09] gideon loveland thank you for your 10 [82:12] donation [82:13] i'm going to circle back alex the [82:15] for the five people still watching [82:17] we did a comparison test with all of the [82:21] what's called affordable subcompact cars [82:24] while the si was probably my least [82:26] favorite out of the bunch from a purely [82:29] performance perspective [82:31] you get a lot of car for your money i [82:33] think it's like in the [82:34] mid-27s [82:36] and it comes with everything you could [82:38] possibly want as a daily driver it has a [82:40] good gear box [82:42] in between rev match [82:43] and the fact that the actual pedal box [82:45] and the shifter are great and relatively [82:48] easy to use should be a perfect car to [82:50] learn how to drive manual on and it's a [82:52] car that you will enjoy driving [82:54] um [82:56] gideon again thank you for the ten [82:57] dollars miss am for ten dollars thank [83:00] you guys for your work and please keep [83:03] producing and more instagram posts [83:05] please well mark and i are attempting to [83:07] step up our instagram game for what [83:09] that's worth so we are trying kevin [83:11] pearson for five dollars i'd love to [83:13] know who picks the music for transitions [83:15] in each video so the breakdown of work [83:18] um [83:19] i run the business out of this i deal [83:21] with trying to get cars all of the other [83:23] aspects of this and [83:24] we do some professional work as well [83:26] um and i do most of the filming day in [83:29] and day out for many of the regular cars [83:31] the bigger projects mark and i work on [83:34] together or if it's a project mark is [83:36] particularly passionate about and i [83:37] don't care mark will do it himself the [83:39] editing is all mark so uh the [83:42] transitions are him even though here and [83:44] there i have suggestions [83:46] um [83:49] hectica for five dollars uh [83:52] g20 m340i x drive or 2018 f 80 m3 [83:56] assuming the m3 is only five grand more [83:59] m3 dude [84:00] yeah uh the m3 is probably a worse daily [84:04] driver the interior doesn't have all the [84:06] latest toys but the f-80 is a really [84:09] special car and [84:11] you you should not be afraid if you buy [84:14] the f don't buy the f-80 if you're [84:16] worried about putting miles on it [84:18] because the f-80 does have certain value [84:21] at this point in time and i'm sure as [84:23] you pile miles onto it the value will [84:25] plummet but that car is best used day in [84:28] and day out and then you get to enjoy [84:30] the fact that at any moment's notice you [84:32] can turn off your action control and go [84:33] sideways [84:34] uh hazel green thank you for the ten [84:36] dollars dylan for five dollars [84:39] mark anyone uh ever tell you you look [84:42] like maynard james keenan uh i will [84:45] answer that for mark we get that [84:47]

stuff is one [95:52] we're not going to be able to get any [95:53] support on it from like x people that [95:55] worked on it the one place uh eag is it [95:59] eag yeah yeah yeah eag um [96:02] even though that sadly the original [96:03] owner passed away his brother took over [96:06] i'd probably reach out to them and get [96:07] some support like they helped us for the [96:08] z4m video yeah i guess that would be [96:10] that would be a way to do support but we [96:12] wouldn't have manufacturer support on [96:13] nope zero [96:15] um [96:16] sean smith any news on the gr corolla [96:18]

yeah we just [96:42] total them out be like all these cars [96:43] were just defective and then [96:45] have a question mark in the the [96:47] thumbnail where [96:48] i'm grabbing my head in your head and [96:50] i'm like sitting there on the phone [96:51] calling my insurance company in the tow [96:53] trucks in the background and i have six [96:54] million views and then i buy your family [96:58] i become the biggest mogul on the [97:00] internet um chris for seven dollars [97:03] canadian where is dj shrimp scampi i [97:07] thought we were going to be serenaded by [97:08] some nice artisanal beats well [97:12] i said this at the beginning of the live [97:13] stream if you're if you're too uh deaf [97:15] to hear it [97:17] uh [97:18] look he didn't make it [97:21] what more do you want from me dominic [97:24] for five dollars mark in your final [97:25] thoughts the alpha 4c you call it one of [97:27] the most fun rewarding cards you've [97:28] driven in years does that hold up today [97:30] yes [97:31] now mark was bought out by alfa romeo [97:33] they they gave they took him to his [97:35] favorite italian restaurant the olive [97:37] garden [97:38] yeah they they sent over their remember [97:40] that was the only time in the car show [97:42] that i just shook my head and was like [97:44] what the hell is happening they because [97:45] they're the only ones that had like the [97:46] models by their booth by the alpha cars [97:49] and i'm like the girls looked horribly [97:52] uncomfortable [97:53] like because you had all these sweaty [97:55] lonely journalists who finally saw [97:58] in in chin faces word words femoid [98:01] spotted [98:05] poor women no no [98:07] yeah anyway that regardless of that um [98:10] yeah it's a special car i mean it's it's [98:12] highly highly flawed [98:14] one of my one of the more entertaining [98:17] uh podcasts i've listened to had chris [98:19] harris talking about his launch program [98:21] of the four scene how he got thrown out [98:22] of it [98:23] because he made fun of the 4c for having [98:26] uh double wishbone front strut rear he [98:29] said it was like an rc car that you the [98:31] engineers didn't see humor and then they [98:33] kicked them out [98:35] it has really weird stuff i get i get it [98:37] i mean i understand it and the the [98:39] mindset was they [98:41] for what they tried to do with it there [98:43] was not enough room that's the packaging [98:46] same problem so i mean they just sit in [98:47] the front instead it's not a great car [98:51] objectively it's not particularly fast [98:53] in a straight line nor is it like a [98:55] lotus a lease or an exegen it's not as [98:56] good to drive as the lotus elites er [98:58] siege but you really do it's a wonder [99:00] what other carbon tub car can you even [99:02] name [99:03] that was in that price right it doesn't [99:04] exist [99:06] uh [99:07] a lemon 570s yeah right but you know [99:10] what i mean like there was something [99:11] very special about driving that you [99:13] couldn't put your your finger on [99:15] i think it was a lost opportunity not to [99:16] fully develop it but i'm sure they ran [99:18] out of money i would have loved to see a [99:20] manual on that car i could have used it [99:22] yeah i think so i've never actually [99:23] driven one so i'm probably the wrong [99:24] person i think you'd really like it if [99:26] you fit in it [99:28] you'd be like man this thing's horrible [99:29] but it's amazing [99:30] texas are for 28 dollars canadian thank [99:33] you for the 28 canadian i'm a field rep [99:35] for one of the oems in canada i [99:37] appreciate the hell out of the content [99:38] you put out sometimes the interviews and [99:40] materials you share are more insightful [99:41] than the content provided from any [99:44] head office [99:46] well i'm glad that's helpful for you uh [99:48] tech zara and [99:50] you know [99:53] i'm sorry that sometimes your head [99:54] office isn't the most helpful [99:58] i i don't know what it is again it goes [100:00] back to the fact that some of the these [100:02] questions that we ask are weird and like [100:05] they're dungeons and dragon really [100:06] and i know from the other side they're [100:08] like why does anybody care about this [100:10] the fact that we care about it and i [100:12] know that there's a lot of people on [100:14] here maybe not everybody but a lot of [100:15] people actually like this information [100:17] because they don't get it anywhere and [100:18] it forces them to actually get it or [100:20] they p these people get an appreciation [100:22] about their car that they're interested [100:23] in that they didn't think they would [100:25] have like the the number of people from

that coming out no idea all i [103:19] care about is what i said not anybody [103:21] else nap oversteer for 20 nap thank you [103:24] for the 20 donation i have a 21 tlx but [103:27] i miss having a manual dd i put an [103:29] integra mt on order you've driven both [103:32] do you feel like the manual integra is [103:33] more fun and engaging to drive than a [103:35] base 2 liter tlx [103:38] [Music] [103:41] manual [103:43] i would say it's more engaging that's [103:45] the [103:45] the integra [103:46] you know the the the manual integra is [103:49] more engaging the base tlx so the base [103:51] tlx really it's just [103:53] it's got a good suspension that's the [103:54] way it is it's got a really good [103:55] suspension but it's not like [103:56] particularly engaging to drive it's more [103:58] of like incompetent yeah [104:01] you'll love the integra man if you like [104:02] acura products which you clearly do [104:04] you'll like the integra john mayer sent [104:06] us something on uh we have a huge live [104:08] stream we have to shoot for patreon so [104:10] if you're a patreon on here we have like [104:11] one to shoot separately that we'll put [104:13] up on there'll be like four hours of us [104:15] answering yeah there's like a jillion [104:16] questions but somebody messaged me on [104:18] there i want to answer this [104:19] when do you think the car dealer model [104:21] this is from john when do you think the [104:22] car dealer model will finally kick the [104:24] bucket it's obvious companies like ford [104:26] are moving away from offering new [104:27] vehicles to dealerships they've split [104:29] out their ev products under a new [104:30] subsidy area company to sell outside the [104:33] dealerships it'll be thought in the [104:34] courts there's so many dealer [104:35] protections in states to states it'll be [104:37] fought in courts the dealers can spend [104:39] if the oems can spend more money than [104:41] the dealers [104:42] and they see the value in getting rid of [104:44] their dealers they will because why [104:45] wouldn't they they could control pricing [104:46] they can control the profit stream [104:48] it might hurt [104:49] some people in that [104:52] you won't be able to negotiate for [104:53] certain vehicles you'll be entirely [104:55] reliant you know maybe the average you [104:58] know special deals if you're a savvy [104:59] buyer will disappear but for regular [105:01] people might help you [105:03] you'll just be [105:04] it'll be like buying a car [105:06] well it's got the the the same problem [105:09] right now it has the pluses and minuses [105:11] on a bad market [105:14] you can save a lot of money from [105:15] dealerships on a good market you're [105:17] gonna get bent over [105:19] but one d one car manufacturers can lock [105:22] in pricing [105:24] that can be a really bad thing as well [105:26] you could because they they potentially [105:28] have a set price that there's no way [105:30] around so if they want to mark something [105:31] up or have it really expensive you're [105:33] done [105:34] now that's not to say that they can't [105:36] have their own incentives with financing [105:37] and all that that might make them [105:39] stronger to be able to control the [105:41] entire system where they will have their [105:44] own financing different plans like how [105:45] uh but was it volvo was the first one to [105:48] do it where you could like have a [105:49] subscription service i don't remember [105:50] the first to do it but volvo was one of [105:52] the first i remember that allowed you to [105:54] do a subscription service where they [105:55] cover insurance they pay a part of your [105:58] payment is all of it and that that could [106:00] be very appealing for somebody [106:01] especially with [106:03] well i don't know how that would work [106:04] with a younger person i think they're [106:05] pros and cons i know i can't remember [106:09] who [106:09] who said this but on average they think [106:11] the average transit transaction price [106:13] would drop two or three grand okay but i [106:16] don't know if that's true or not because [106:17] i think certain deals like [106:18] when you bought your volvo your xc90 the [106:21] first time around and when i bought my [106:22] vet [106:23] we got smoke and deals because we [106:24] shopped around right so i think there's [106:26] pros and cons but to be honest the [106:28] answer is [106:29] the the it has to change [106:32] the [106:32] dealership like structure is rooted in [106:37] you know a long time we're talking [106:39] 60 years or whatever it is with the [106:41] franchising stuff it's actually longer [106:43] that way that longer than that so you [106:45] have an old system that predates the [106:46] internet like we just talked about [106:48] social media is really like [106:51] probably 15 years old to be real about [106:53] it mass adoption just in that time it's [106:56] obliterated the concept and there's [106:58] better ways to do it [107:00] and it's going to take all these [107:01] companies banding together to get it [107:02] changed in the courts and like [107:04] but it's i don't know what you do with [107:06] all the dealerships you have because you [107:08] know you have a lot of money these [107:09] companies have a lot of money invested [107:11] in their dealer networks and part of the [107:12] dealer network is also the support [107:14] network and they're usually operated [107:16] separately um in terms of cost centers [107:19] as well so it's not it's not something [107:21] that's going to change overnight uh the [107:23] big companies would have to like ford [107:25] and gm and all them [107:27] oh shout out to uh chin face again for [107:29] uh modding out the million porn bots [107:31] apparently oh there's a million porn box [107:32] they keep popping up in our on our live [107:34] oh cool yeah is that anything good [107:37] it's probably just the same thing over [107:38] and over again uh the and the other [107:40] thing is i'll bring it up now because we [107:43] do our best there's a bot that keeps [107:44] saying message them on telegram that is [107:46] obviously not us yeah we don't even use [107:48] telegram so so please don't click on [107:50] that we as they create accounts we try [107:52] to delete them but [107:54] youtube's fun [107:55] uh all right back to the questions yeah [107:56] if you get something saying you won [107:58] something or you wanna you win nothing [108:00] from us you guaranteed you didn't win [108:02] anything and if you did want anything [108:04] i'd be i'd already be standing in your [108:05] window to your bedroom like looking in [108:07] like [108:11] um [108:12] all right uh [108:17] hopefully that answered your question [108:18] that by the way uh i think you'll like [108:20] the integra manual despite what the [108:22] internet says it's more engaging to [108:24] drive than the tlx [108:26] uh buzzy for five dollars what's the [108:27] best way to learn what type of [108:29] what's the best way to learn what type [108:32] of car we like i don't know what we like [108:34] and not sure [108:35] cost-effective way [108:37] to learn i.e muscle versus german versus [108:40] japanese [108:41] that's a fair question it's like coming [108:43] out of school and saying oh i want to be [108:45] this and then you get in the job you're [108:46] like oh it's experience [108:49] and see time and accessibility it's what [108:52] you have access to [108:53] so i always say to people if you're into [108:56] a certain car enthusiast car you got to [108:57] get out there and do the work you've got [108:59] to get out to auto crosses car meets [109:01] meet people that have different cars [109:03] have them take it worst case they won't [109:04] let you drive the car get in and feel it [109:06] out autocross is the best way to do it [109:08] if you don't have a lot of if you don't [109:09] have a ton of money or resources most [109:11] autocross is going to friendly enough [109:12] club you can ride yeah yeah like most of [109:15] the flexible autocross team company not [109:18] companies but groups will let you do [109:20] ride-alongs that's a good way to really [109:22] feel out to see you know is the car best [109:24] does it handle well you'll talk to [109:26] owners about it and get a better insight [109:28] the the [109:29] straight answer is you're not going to [109:30] know until you drive these cars and [109:32] experience that and sometimes with car [109:33] ownership i tell this to check sometimes [109:35] you just have to buy a car and own it to [109:36] get get it out of your system be like [109:38] this is not for me or you learn [109:40] something about yourself that yes i like [109:42] the style of car and i need to find [109:43] something more like that [109:45] so don't listen to anybody particularly [109:48] let it be a guide [109:49] but then make your own decision about [109:51] what you really like [109:53] uh jordan [109:54] estevo thank you for the five dollars [109:57] some stuff doesn't come across on camera [109:59] like [110:00] uh size road presence paint quality [110:03] panel gap etc can you discuss without [110:05] getting into subjective taste [110:08] we've talked about the paint thing [110:09] before like doing it with jason it's [110:11] hard though yeah it is hard because a [110:13] lot of the cars are up to begin [110:15] with yeah so we're getting press cars [110:16] and press cars uh well we're usually [110:19] first to get them in our area but they [110:20] already have like 2 500 miles on them [110:22] which means they've probably been washed [110:23] like [110:24] 60 times [110:26] so it's hard to tell overall paint [110:28] quality [110:29] you can see orange peel [110:32] and [110:34] if [110:37] you can see panel gap obviously and i [110:38] think a lot of these cars the only time [110:40] i bring it up is when it's really out of [110:42] spec there's like a level of like i [110:45] brought up with tesla i brought it with [110:46] ford ford's really bad like at least [110:48] their their cars were my rear bumper and [110:51] my hood were hilariously bad on [110:53] my mustang yeah so like those types of [110:56] cars the civic the thai bar that we had [110:58] the i think it wasn't the yellow one [111:01] did we have a matte one i don't remember [111:02] what the one i was i was having that was [111:04] the gray one the one that got the did [111:06] the first update video on like the 2019 [111:08] oh yeah yeah was that a matte color or [111:10] was it just silver i don't remember what [111:11] it was [111:13] no it was a regular color okay so anyway [111:16] this the the last batch of ti bars that [111:18] came out of swindon it was like they [111:20] just didn't care they just like bolted [111:22] up the panels to the car and they're [111:23] just like send it horrible but yeah [111:26] unless something's really bad i really [111:28] don't go into it um because most cards [111:30] are actually pretty good honestly [111:32] kyle hernandez for ten dollars [111:34] what percent of performance are the ct4 [111:39] v sorry ct4 ct5v [111:43] non-blackwing cars compared to the [111:44] blackwings like if you are never going [111:46] to take them the track is there any [111:48] reason i get the black wing [111:50] yeah i get the black wing because [111:51] they're [111:52] i don't know v8s [111:54] the ct5b is a good one you get a v8 they [111:56] get [111:57] i was going to say we're doing an m3 [111:59] all-wheel drive video coming up and my [112:02] favorite performance sedan that i have [112:04] driven in the last [112:06] two or three years doing this is the [112:08] ct5v blackwing that car is [112:10] amazing you're also talking about an ass [112:12] load of money [112:13] and a lot of it's wasted you know i mean [112:15] you're like you really have to if you're [112:16] buying a ct5v you're already spending [112:18] like 70 years how much is a regular ct4 [112:21] or ct5 without the v stuff yes [112:23] specifically for the so there's the v [112:25] and there's the black wing oh god gotcha [112:27] oh i thought you said the regular ones [112:29] okay well that's different [112:30] i mean yeah i mean if you can even but [112:32] the problem is you're not getting fined [112:33] a black wing guaranteed it's going to be [112:35] really hard to find one and that's not [112:38] marked up [112:39] so the ct5v blackwing is 51 000. before [112:43] options so the [112:45] the black sorry the ct5v [112:47] non-black wing is 51 gram before options [112:49] so figure probably like 60 grand with [112:52] options okay it's 20 grand delta to get [112:53] the black wing yeah that's a lot of [112:55] money it is [112:56] but you get as a street car the black [112:58] wing is amazing other than fuel economy [113:00] i don't know man [113:01] i don't think you're going to find a [113:02] black wing for msrp i just don't think [113:05] it's possible so if that's the case and [113:07] you cause when we were looking they were [113:09] all 20 to 30 000 more um [113:12] if you can get one for msrp you know [113:14] you'll be able to flip it especially if [113:15] you get a manual because it's gonna be [113:17] so value part then yeah yeah monetarily [113:20] i would bet you if you bought a black [113:21] wing and you could get one at sticker [113:23] your cost to own over four years would [113:26] be less than the ct 5v regular because [113:30] of depreciation [113:31] because the block the regular v will [113:33] depreciate probably like a rock [113:35] and the blackwing manual won't move [113:37] that's not saying there's anything wrong [113:39] with it i guess you're looking at it [113:40] from two different ways he asks because [113:42] he's not gonna take it to the track [113:44] if he wants it if you want a ct5v [113:47] then just lease the thing [113:49] just lease it and like i said before get [113:51] it out of your system you know you'll [113:52] know by the end of that two years was it [113:54] good enough for you or drive both yeah [113:56] and make yourself if you drive boat then [113:57] you're not gonna want the regular [113:59] that you know that's the truth of it [114:01] it's uh johan thank you for your 3990 [114:04] myr [114:06] i don't know what currency that is but [114:07] thank you for your time thank you sir [114:09] hey savages huge fan thanks [114:12] for the truly insightful content have a [114:14] question mainly directly directed to [114:16] mark [114:17] could you touch more about your vulva [114:19] ownership would you recommend it in 2022 [114:28] uh so i i really [114:30] liked my volvo [114:32] i really liked it and i said this in the [114:34] last live stream about the xc90 and i [114:36] had a fully loaded r design i mean it [114:38] had every option [114:40] and it was one of the few cars that i [114:42] had that i really didn't want to get rid [114:44] of i really wanted that thing to work i [114:46] wanted i didn't want to get rid of it i [114:48] enjoyed it i love the interior i love [114:50] the audio system like that interior [114:52] space made up for a lot of deficiencies [114:54] in terms it wasn't the best riding car [114:56] it wasn't the most quietest on the road [114:57] it definitely did not have the best [114:58] drivetrain but it made up for it in a [115:00] lot of the character on the inside and [115:02] the outside the reason why i didn't you [115:04] know you know one of the reasons why i [115:06] don't recommend it is because [115:08] they have far too many issues with their [115:10] drivetrain now t5 is far less [115:12] complicated but if you want to go to the [115:13] upper trim level ones with the t6 or the [115:16] recharge ones [115:17] they're they're just [115:18] you know that [115:20] they didn't do enough like [115:22] their their focus was not enough on like [115:24] making these things reliable and [115:26] therefore you know i know i've talked to [115:29] people that said they haven't had many [115:30] problems with theirs and then you talk [115:32] to people like me where they have [115:33] everything going wrong with it and [115:36] that's why if you're going to get one [115:37] you either have to lease it or you have [115:38] a really long warranty and not only that [115:40] you have to be prepared for just because [115:42] you have a warranty doesn't mean that [115:43] when the car goes in the shop one it's [115:45] gonna get fixed two it's gonna get fixed [115:47] in a timely manner and three shit's not [115:49] gonna be back ordered for months and [115:52] that becomes the other big issue so [115:54] um [115:56] if if you like it enough to do it go for [115:58] it if you're worried about like it being [116:00] in the shop or like taking forever to [116:01] get fixed then i would stay away from it [116:03] but i personally [116:05] really liked the xc90 [116:07] it looked great it had an interesting [116:09] looking interior [116:11] it had a great audio system [116:15] but compared to [116:18] objectively compared to its competition [116:22] today [116:23] it's a weak offering it's old [116:25] like that that generation that spa [116:27] architecture that a lot of those cars [116:28] are on is old [116:30] that's why it doesn't compete in terms [116:32] of ride quality chassis rigidity all the [116:36] things like that the germans are good at [116:37] when you get in an audi like a q5 or a [116:39] q7 or a bmw x5 or an x7 it's like on [116:42] another planet of like just it's on [116:45] another level of engineering and just [116:47] solidness and the dealers are weak and [116:49] the volvo dealerships are really weak [116:50] they're tiny that's not saying you have [116:52] a bad experience but they're tiny [116:53] relative and their resources are far [116:55] less and there are less there's just not [116:57] very many of them yeah but that's also [116:58] the draw some people like that that [117:00] that's one of the things i liked about [117:01] this because it wasn't a generic it [117:03] wasn't a total npc like luxury car it [117:05] had some character to it and if you [117:07] didn't see a million of them on the road [117:09] there's a lot of them on the road but [117:10] they're it's not like [117:11] you know copy and paste x3x5 everywhere [117:14] machine spirit miami thank you for the [117:16] five dollars hope this helps keep the [117:18] dream alive mark for us corporal slaves [117:21] who have not yet escaped [117:23] our corporal overlords do what they [117:26] enjoy okay well [117:30] let's see how long we can hold out [117:31] before we come and join you and then [117:33] open up a position so i can come in and [117:35] just hit my head on the desk like oh man [117:37] i really wanted back and after like a [117:38] month was that character from office [117:40] space what was his name who burned down [117:41] the office melton milton are you gonna [117:43] turn into a milton or they're just [117:44] moving your place down well it wasn't no [117:47] it was when he moved him to like the [117:48] store yeah then he burped yeah because [117:50] he already said he was going to burn the [117:51] place down after he took a stapler [117:53] uh [117:54] bendy for 690. if you had to choose [117:57] between a launcher and gr86 for 75 daily [118:01] 25 track use for someone trying to learn [118:04] car control what would you pick [118:06] what are the car options the launcher [118:08] and or gr86 r86 you're not going to [118:10] learn much from the laundromat in terms [118:12] of car control i mean it's a great car [118:14] it's very it's very connected but [118:17] it depends what you want to start with [118:19] because driving front-wheel drive [118:20] creates a bad habit it creates different [118:24] habits and they don't translate well to [118:26] rear-wheel drive like jack [118:29] it's hard for jack to get in a [118:30] front-wheel drive car like your brain [118:32] doesn't work with it like it's harder to [118:34] go that way like when i almost [118:35] understeered off the road in that pile [118:37] like you're i don't think your brain [118:39] understands understeer as much as [118:40] oversteer oversteer for me is really [118:42] easy i'm just like yeah our brains are [118:44] way different yeah yeah i mean i i feel [118:46] like i understand both but i'm more [118:48] afraid of oversteer because when things [118:51] go wrong with that [118:52] it can be almost sudden or like [118:55] dangerous yeah but when it goes sideways [118:56] for me i always laugh yeah yeah that's [118:58] true so i don't know i would start with [118:59] a rear wheel drive car because it's [119:01] typically there's more fundamentals [119:02] you're going to get from driving faster [119:04] ignoring car control though elantra [119:06] energy 86 [119:08] 86 still [119:10] still because [119:12] let's say what are you going to take [119:13] from the elantra and and moving on to [119:15] the next car from a sports car [119:16] perspective that's like top dog [119:18] front-wheel drive there's nothing else [119:19] but like in front right purely from a [119:20] fun perspective though i think the [119:21] launch ran is as fun the elantra and is [119:24] more fun than the 86 and it's [119:27] i think better to drive in some ways [119:29] than the 80s i think it's more hardcore [119:31] to drive but you can take the lessons [119:33] learned in the gr86 and move it into [119:35] mustangs camaros porsches corvettes all [119:39] the corvettes all the big boy rear wheel [119:41] drive cars you can take all that and [119:43] understand those cars and get [119:44] comfortable in those whereas the [119:45] launcher and you do what you do in the [119:48] elantra and in a rear wheel drive car [119:49] and you're gonna wind up in a pole yeah [119:51] you know [119:52] uh pan 46 for ten dollars hey guys i [119:56] really appreciate your commitment to [119:57] informative content [119:59] what would you choose between a 718 gts [120:02] four leader and a 992 career s both [120:04] being manual [120:06] oh we driven both [120:07] did you like the the 911 the red carrera [120:10] the one that i loved to pieces [120:12] or the gts convertible four liter gts [120:15] convertible four liter why [120:17] because you feel connected driving that [120:19] it instantly has a sense of nimbleness [120:21] compared to the 911. the 911 feels like [120:23] a gt car that's quick [120:25] it's it's more like there's there's more [120:28] disconnect in that car whereas you put [120:30] the top down in the gts and it's [120:31] lightning quick like it everything [120:33] responds fast on the street you you feel [120:36] like you're a part of that machine and [120:37] that experience [120:39] that's why i like it i like the longer [120:40] wheelbase of the 911 because you want to [120:42] slide a car exactly yeah he and i it's [120:45] like the i [120:48] someone who's [120:49] trying to buy a certain 718 i really [120:53] love those cars [120:56] and i think i'd have to go to the gt4 [120:57] and maybe the gts 4 liter to not want to [121:00] buy a carrera s but i think gun to my [121:02] head if the price delta didn't matter [121:05] because the carrera s with the manual is [121:06] like 150 grand [121:08] i would probably still get the career [121:09] ass [121:10] but you're right the gts i think it's [121:12] about a driver's car [121:13] like it's in the best way to do it is [121:15] you take those cars back to back [121:17] and you you [121:18] if you like snappy quick light [121:21] responsive cars versus like that over [121:23] steering car if they're night and day in [121:25] terms of modality it's very strange [121:27] because they're very similar like you i [121:29] mean well they're not similar but they [121:30] are similar but the character is so much [121:32] different so it really depends on the [121:33] type of driver you are [121:35] yeah they're both you can't go wrong [121:36] with that i like going through it [121:38] through a corner foot to the floor and [121:40] having to do this [121:41] to correct it quickly and having the car [121:43] correct from a snap versus like where [121:46] you put your foot through the floor and [121:47] then [121:48] the car's going sideways and you're like [121:50] doing a full correction and it's not [121:52] you're not getting a snappy like fix to [121:54] it but that's the difference between the [121:55] two cars that we like driving you like [121:56] the s2000 because it's not a car that [121:59] does big power oversteer i came from the [122:01] mustang and now now that i figured out [122:03] the c7 i can slide that car into my [122:05] heart's content do ridiculously big [122:07] slides but i like that yeah yeah so it [122:10] depends on what you like but [122:11] nimbleness-wise the gts yeah [122:14] uh richer ricardo for ten dollars [122:18] thoughts on the new kia [122:19] forte gt with the gt2 or the dual clutch [122:22] package is it the perfect daily driver [122:25] my only worry is the transmission [122:27] reliability [122:28] i haven't driven it never either [122:31] i mean if it's like the the traditional [122:33] dct like is it the dct out of like the [122:35] elantra pot like the entre end [122:40] yeah i will ask for a forte gt [122:43] with the dual clutch and i will do a [122:45] video on one [122:46] is it like a 1.6 or is it a 2 liter [122:50] supreme car i don't know anything about [122:51] it [122:52] i mean it has the potential to be i'm [122:54] sure very like the forte i had a rental [122:56] car i was good [122:58] that's not a good lead-in but oh man i [123:00] had a rental car it was it wasn't a [123:01] total piece of it was a turo though [123:03] i turned on [123:04] yeah it was fine i i had no problem with [123:06] that car [123:07] yeah i really like to see the thing that [123:09] hyundai and kia does is they they still [123:11] make small cars that are not horrible [123:14] like and they don't have i said this [123:15] before in other videos i'm sure you've [123:16] seen it like you know when you don't [123:19] have options for cars they could totally [123:21] phone it in just to have something in [123:22] like a gm and ford mentality where they [123:24] just have to put it there just so they [123:25] have something on their website and the [123:27] the fortes and like the cheaper hyundai [123:29] and kia cars don't feel or like they [123:31] don't feel bad they feel like they were [123:33] still designed [123:34] um for somebody that doesn't have a [123:35] budget and you don't feel bad driving it [123:37] and they still drive well i mean you [123:39] know [123:40] are they as good as a modern civic now [123:42] and all that and you know [123:43] but they're way cheaper yeah the the [123:46] value part of the cheap hyundai and kia [123:49] products [123:50] acknowledging the fact that they aren't [123:51] ship boxes anymore they're really good [123:53] cars [123:54] it's a strong offering [123:56] um [123:58] i had a pretty big turnaround from the [124:00] kona and i mean i don't i don't like the [124:01] conan for what it is i think it's just [124:04] stupid but a great car [124:07] cuv thing is stupid but the laundry iron [124:09] man like that that was like i always saw [124:12] this marketing and just getting out [124:14] there to drive it on track the way that [124:16] like they kind of set it up it's amazing [124:18] yeah it's just so special what they did [124:20] and nobody else is doing that for that [124:22] price anymore that's like how cars kind [124:24] of used to be like and obviously there's [124:26] no comparison but like you're talking [124:28] about the crx the crx was kind of like [124:30] the embodiment of the compact car that [124:32] was fun to drive connected that you [124:34] could use all the time that you felt [124:36] something in the laundry and really [124:37] sacrifices a lot of the things that make [124:40] the other cars the gti boring and [124:42] you get out there like i really really [124:44] want to drive the elantra on like i [124:47] really want to drive it and then i feel [124:48] like i'm doing something i'm honestly [124:49] going to try to get the dual clutch i [124:51] thought about i'll do another video on [124:53] yeah so we could drive yeah good point [124:55] um [124:57] i i wish and i'm going to try to get [124:59] them to answer this question getting [125:00] hyundai and kia to answer technical [125:02] questions is sometimes it's basically [125:04] impossible it's impossible because [125:05] everything's not done nothing's done in [125:07] the us [125:08] nothing [125:09] the product planning is done but that's [125:11] like where do we put the mirrors where [125:12] do we put the cup holders you know what [125:14] features do people want it is so the the [125:16] launcher in is so much better to drive [125:18] than the or m and i don't know why and i [125:22] want because a lot of the the the [125:23] components are basically identical yeah [125:26] yeah i'm going to ask them this time [125:29] what they did and how [125:31] like the finer bits i can't guarantee [125:33] you i'm going to get an answer but i'm [125:34] going to try yeah they're not on the [125:36] same [125:37] i mean they're i guess they're on the [125:38] they're on the same archetype similar [125:40] basically identical motor the the the [125:42] elantra and makes more power i'm talking [125:43] about the body is the new veloc and i [125:45] can't remember i think the elantra n is [125:47] more rigid than the velocity okay but [125:49] that would make sense because it feels [125:50] more rigid the wheelbase is obviously [125:52] longer i would assume [125:54] which could also make it feel more [125:55] stable [125:57] but getting those real technical answers [125:58] from an engineer i think will go a long [125:59] way agreed um all right [126:02] let's go back into the tech the the the [126:05] bajillion questions we've been answering [126:07] it's what's funny is i thought you said [126:09] we weren't going to talk about uh korean [126:10] cars last live stream but i have to hey [126:14] the launch runs great [126:15] now what are we not cause i've been paid [126:17] by a lot [126:20] of your brand [126:20] engineers came to me he's like jack [126:22] you're a real corner rascal yeah you're [126:23] a real corner rescue whatever marketing [126:25] can you talk about engram shift oh [126:27] god yeah can we put i'm gonna put [126:29] triangles on your face dude you're gonna [126:30] have a triangle hat [126:32] i know we should ban porsche how would [126:33] you would you just leave if you would [126:35] just be gone yeah uh [126:37] samuel uh oh and we're doing a cayenne [126:40] turbo gt in august [126:42] yeah what was up with that i thought [126:43] we're getting that way sooner i just uh [126:45] i want to take it to the track oh okay [126:47] so [126:48] uh sam [126:50] hello i have no kids but i bought a new [126:52] minivan a honda odyssey with the j35 [126:55] minivans have been proven to be far [126:56] superior than a truck to haul my shifter [126:58] cart around [126:59] the country [127:01] minivan over pickup truck if you don't [127:03] need to tell i would totally do the same [127:05] thing i mean if i got to a place in my [127:07] life where i could region do release a [127:10] regional karting i would do that and i [127:11] would highly consider doing it in a [127:13] minivan sam thanks for the ten dollars [127:14] by the way yeah thanks man i would love [127:16] to [127:17] if you're ever out at autobahn and doing [127:19] karting hit us up it is up because i'd [127:21] love to get out there i was i told you [127:23] that i told jack this this year one of [127:24] my goals was to actually get out yeah [127:25] then abraham yeah yeah [127:27] brian jante by the way the guy who used [127:29] to work at mancuso who hooked us up with [127:32] the lotuses and helped us with our [127:33] karting video that guy is amazing yeah [127:35] he's a big regional gardener he does it [127:38] all in a gti i think he puts the cart in [127:40] the gti oh he does yeah or he has a [127:42] trailer for it he's got to do wheels off [127:44] and all that yeah i'm sure but he's a [127:46] bro how does he deal with keeping it [127:47] from sloshing around [127:50] like fluids having to drain it all out i [127:52] have no idea i just know that he does [127:54] that and that's pretty amazing [127:56] mobus for 20. love your thank you for [127:59] the 20 [128:00] love your channel thank you uh always [128:02] have good vibes and fun to watch quick [128:04] car question my dd is a ls430 [128:08] get a new upper spec z for the weekend [128:10] or sell the ls 430 and get a base spec [128:13] is 500 f sport [128:17] well since he's already got a lexus just [128:20] go for the is he's probably gonna be [128:21] more happy with that [128:24] just as a as a dd as well he has a dd [128:26] the is500 is amazing yeah if you're [128:28] never going to see the track the is500 [128:31] is a great car [128:32] yeah the is500 is a really good street [128:34] car it's that that's where it excels if [128:36] you expect it to be anything more than a [128:38] really good streetcar that makes a lot [128:39] of noise and kind of goes sideways [128:41] you're going to be disappointed in it [128:43] the z is a good car [128:46] i'm really excited so [128:48] for those who didn't watch the beginning [128:49] of this live stream and i know it's [128:50] super long um [128:52] we are doing a comparison test again [128:54] with the z the same with the super on [128:56] the gr86 and we are putting the super on [128:58] the z on the sink tire and they're going [129:00] to be on a very sticky 200 treadwear [129:02] tire from a certain japanese [129:04] manufacturer [129:05] um [129:06] and i'm really excited to see what the z [129:08] is like because it'll be in performance [129:09] pads as well to see what it's like as a [129:13] track car on a dry track that we know [129:15] really really well yeah a lot of people [129:16] have complained that the z is [129:19] too soft which i i maybe argue yes or no [129:22] but the tires are not good [129:23] now that we eliminate that factor to be [129:25] fair anyone who's going to track that [129:26] car is going to put it on a sticky set [129:28] of tires i agree [129:29] i'm curious to see what that car is like [129:32] because if it does the track well and it [129:33] does the daily part compromise it's [129:35] still a cool car i think what you're [129:36] going to find is much like this broken [129:38] record of this whatever we're doing here [129:41] you're going to get out of the supra and [129:42] the supra is going to be belligerently [129:44] fast and the brakes are going to give [129:46] out first um you're going to get in the [129:48] c and the z is not going to be as fast [129:50] but it's going to be far more fun to [129:52] drive i could be wrong but that would be [129:54] my guess [129:56] yeah whenever whenever i drive the [129:58] supras and we've driven them a lot now [130:00] and driven them a lot on the track the [130:02] supra to me is this great [130:04] bargain for 50 thousand dollars [130:07] you you're basically getting like a [130:08] discount m car in some ways yeah but [130:11] then i think that the zl the camaro [130:13] ss1le if you're looking for a track car [130:15] is way more involving in similar money [130:17] it's just not probably not as fast that [130:19] would be an interesting uh one that we'd [130:21] never get as small [130:23] now that i'm kind of i'm going to try [130:25] i'll ask i would i really want to do [130:27] that they gotta have one in detroit they [130:28] can ship yeah i'll ask because that [130:30] would be because that's really the [130:31] missing link because a lot of people [130:32] have been asking for that ss1 i'll leave [130:34] for a long time and it's a car we just [130:37] they don't put it in the fleet because [130:38] they do not care about camaro they just [130:40] don't they don't care about it anymore [130:41] so you know getting that as a [130:43] manufacturer car is hard not drake for [130:46] twenty dollars last live stream few [130:48] people mentioned the 2022 bolt price cut [130:51] i bought one with the discount to [130:53] replace my 99 cherokee i actually love [130:55] it pretty zippy and now a six dollar [130:58] charge gets me further than a hundred [131:00] dollar tank did yeah that's no joke [131:02] wouldn't [131:03] uh i i don't disagree with that right [131:05] now it's kind of a here and now thing [131:07] but [131:07] um we did the gv60 [131:10] not having to fill it up was nice and [131:11] going because i i wound up the range [131:13] socks on it to me it sucked and then [131:16] going to a dc fast charger i i did [131:20] about 20 to 80 percent [131:22] in 17 minutes and it was roughly 20 [131:26] every time i did that [131:28] that's i mean [131:30] there's pitfalls to that don't get me [131:32] wrong like that 20 isn't really fair but [131:35] i mean [131:36] compared to like what we're dealing with [131:38] with these other cars that are 80 to 100 [131:40] to fill up every time it's a pretty con [131:42] it's a huge savings if you're like what [131:45] we do with the x7 right like i fill up [131:47] the x7 every week maybe even twice a [131:49] week and that's 150 dollars of phillip [131:52] that's that's insane how much money is i [131:54] have an escalade right now because we're [131:55] doing a technical video on the super [131:57] cruise i'm like regretting whenever i [131:59] fill that thing up because it's so much [132:00] money yeah [132:02] for nothing you're literally burning [132:04] money and it's one thing when gas is [132:06] cheap but another thing when it's like [132:08] you're you're like why am i spending [132:10] this much money i'm not getting it's not [132:11] even that it's like necessarily like [132:14] that i'm dreading it because i can't [132:16] afford it it's just like it feels [132:17] wasteful no it well it's because it's [132:19] hitting your bottom line but that's [132:21] that's in america that's the benefit we [132:23] have is like things are traditionally [132:25] cheap and people like oh you know it's [132:27] like other countries look at us like [132:29] dude you look at how little you pay for [132:31] gas or cars you're like why are you [132:32] complaining you know and now that we're [132:34] actually getting hit with a lot of these [132:36] rising costs it's like oh man i'm not [132:38] paying that much you know all of a [132:40] sudden [132:40] all of a sudden we care you know uh kurt [132:43] for ten dollars thank you kurt for your [132:45] donation sorry if i've sorry if you've [132:48] answered this before how do you define [132:50] good steering feel [132:51] that we actually had a discussion off [132:53] camera remember i was messaging you [132:55] about this to find good steering feel [132:57] where it feels like the steering wheel [132:58] is just connected to a [133:00] video game where i don't feel anything i [133:03] don't want a feeling how do you how do [133:04] you define good steering feel so [133:05] steering feel to me it's you're probably [133:07] gonna say the same thing is [133:09] i want a car to communicate what's [133:11] happening with grip levels on the front [133:14] part of the car through the tires into [133:16] the steering wheel where i know how much [133:17] grip or scrub is on the front tires and [133:20] i want to be able to feel through the [133:21] steering wheel when that grip is [133:23] disappeared what does that feel like in [133:24] the wheel [133:25] it feels [133:27] like a sudden load it feels like the [133:29] front end is loading up a weight [133:31] and then [133:32] as the traction breaks you feel a slip [133:35] in the wheel and then a weight come back [133:37] as it's slipping and gripping with some [133:39] subtle vibration so if a tire is [133:40] scrubbing you'll feel that subtle [133:42] vibration of the fact that the front end [133:44] is going or the fact that you have [133:46] maximum grip and you can hold that angle [133:48] like in the gen 1 nsx we drove without [133:50] you and this is the thing we don't talk [133:52] about and it's hard to explain this is [133:54] something i talked to you and then i [133:55] talked to karen about too is like you go [133:57] through a turn [133:59] and you you know the apex you know how [134:01] you're supposed to get through the turn [134:02] you should be through the turn like this [134:04] essentially one turn one commitment [134:06] through that entire turn you shouldn't [134:08] be doing like turn one at autobahn which [134:09] is not something i do all the time is [134:11] one angle one angle because that that's [134:12] what you do but the problem with you [134:14] could do that a lot easier with older [134:15] cars you can make subtle adjustments [134:17] because you're feeling the grip level [134:19] fall off and come back through the wheel [134:20] all the modern cars [134:22] that does not exist anymore so even in [134:24] cars with good steering modern cars [134:26] there's no transmission of when that [134:28] that grip level is here or there so the [134:31] way you have to drive it is you have to [134:32] pick the angle and make one turn because [134:35] as soon as you start moving that wheel [134:36] you don't even know if there's grip or [134:38] not and you're just wasting time so it's [134:40] anyway that's kind of geeky no no i i [134:42] think that's a fair question because [134:43] people are always like what does good [134:44] steering mean [134:46] i think certain cars [134:48] there's a v it's not to the level of the [134:50] gen 1 nsx where the steering i shoot you [134:53] not is the best steering i've probably [134:55] felt in a car that isn't like an atom or [134:57] something yeah or a lotus right right um [134:59] and the lotus does that as well you [135:01] there is [135:02] muted in comparison to the nsx at least [135:05] the lotuses i've driven which should be [135:06] fair just savoro's um but you feel [135:09] something in the front wheel it may not [135:11] be the same like or it's actually moving [135:13] the wheel but you feel something but i [135:15] wonder how much of that is staring at us [135:16] versus your ass like what you feel in [135:18] your butt well i think part of the the [135:19] steering feel is also because it's going [135:22] through the wheel you're feeling it [135:23] through the body of the car as well you [135:25] can't like really isolate out the fact [135:27] that you're having grip and it's part of [135:29] that whole body experience that's gone [135:31] in [135:32] many modern cars i think the thing with [135:34] the steering feel is it's almost [135:36] impossible to get steering feel [135:38] weight [135:39] and to make a car good that way and then [135:42] to be street drivable so like what you [135:44] went through in the nsx or you go [135:45] through with a lease or an exige with a [135:47] manual steering rack [135:49] is it's fatiguing as hell to drive fast [135:53] like you're you know if you don't have [135:54] upper body strength it's really hard to [135:56] control that car because it's it is [135:58] literally loading up the rack and to the [136:00] point where your arm is [136:02] like that your your arm is part of that [136:05] mechanism to control the tie rods and [136:07] everything so while it's connecting it's [136:09] fatiguing to drive and it's not [136:10] accessible to a vast majority of the [136:12] people that can afford those cars so [136:14] that's why you know a lot of these newer [136:16] cars there's no way you would dare put a [136:18] manual rack the best modern eps is [136:20] porsche products specifically in the gt [136:23] products because there's all this [136:24] rigidity yeah lack of rubber bushings in [136:27] the front ends [136:28] and then i will say what makes good [136:31] electronic power steering is a perfect [136:34] linearity to your steering inputs like [136:36] you feel jack in the current [136:38] generation g80 m3 but what i will say [136:42] is the ratio is perfect you know [136:44] exactly mentally how much input to give [136:48] when you're correcting a slide or [136:49] turning in you know [136:51] mentally that your brain moves the wheel [136:54] x the car will turn x you don't feel [136:56] in the wheel but it is doing [136:58] something right versus like the x3m [137:01] where [137:02] because it's got variable gear ratio [137:04] steering [137:06] this versus this does not equal the same [137:08] amount of turning you know right it's [137:10] like there's a ramp up effect it's not a [137:12] linear curve of turn see i'm okay with [137:14] that and i think the the so the the uh [137:17] one of the things that made the lc 500 [137:19] the performance pack or whatever they [137:20] call it now [137:21] it had a variable steering rack and the [137:23] rear wheel steering so they're trying to [137:25] match the rates of the way that the rear [137:27] wheels are turning with the variable [137:29] gear [137:31] it wasn't particularly normal because [137:33] the the car was so long [137:35] but you know but that's how you made it [137:37] shrink down so there was a there was a [137:38] great feel of how those two mechanical [137:41] systems were working together to get [137:43] that car to snap and to move in [137:45] that was good with the way that it was [137:47] tuned because it made a big car feel [137:48] smaller and it was still really [137:50] enjoyable because you could chuck it [137:52] through a corner but it didn't speak out [137:54] to me that it was like yeah okay yes [137:56] it's not a perfect one in that car but [137:59] it didn't speak out to me in being weird [138:01] like the x3m does it and the the 240i [138:05] x drive thing did it well but that's [138:07] partly because you don't have the rear [138:08] steering effect you have a just you have [138:10] you know you you can turn to here and [138:12] then the gear the teeth change sizes so [138:14] when you're turning [138:15] you know that ratio is suddenly changing [138:18] so if you're expecting okay i'm going [138:20] through the corner and i hit that point [138:21] and all of a sudden it speeds up and you [138:23] turn in even faster without having the [138:25] rear turning at the same time it can [138:27] create a weird effect but this is this [138:30] is one of the things so you talk about [138:31] steering feel there is no steering feel [138:33] like physical load up in the wheel [138:36] anymore like the older cars with manual [138:37] racks that's gone so how does it feel to [138:40] actually turn the wheel and get it to do [138:43] what you that's what you're talking [138:44] about is when you turn the wheel it [138:45] matches up to your brain and your inputs [138:47] that's how you determine what like a [138:49] good steering is does it feel natural [138:50] like the old 86 and i got this wrong in [138:52] an instagram comment i guess i i get all [138:55] the subaru racks confu confusing yeah [138:58] so this [138:59] the old 86 because the way the elect the [139:01] eps rack was done the motor and the it [139:05] was in the column and the controller [139:06] were both [139:07] they were yeah they were like they just [139:09] moved the controller and the motor [139:11] closer to the rack it's not a rack [139:14] mounted eps anymore and that's that was [139:16] the change but that's what but they [139:17] changed that in the other subaru's they [139:19] put the the the motor on the rack and [139:21] then the the input shaft on the rack and [139:23] they put the motor on the other side [139:25] that was the divorce direction anyway i [139:27] was getting it is the old frs had a [139:30] little bit of something through the [139:31] wheel there was far more load [139:33] transmitted where you felt the load up [139:35] effect in the wheel like that the new [139:36] car doesn't have that but it's still [139:38] perfectly linear in how you input things [139:41] yeah that's a long discussion about [139:42] steering hey you got your money's worth [139:44] out of that answer sir yeah that's [139:46] that's geeky stuff uh sorry if i put any [139:48] of you guys to sleep um and no hydraulic [139:51] steering doesn't all is not always [139:53] better than eps that's the other thing [139:55] i'm gonna say the z is a good example of [139:57] that the 370z is hydraulic steering [140:01] yes you got something out of the wheel [140:03] but it wasn't all of that precise or all [140:06] that linear the new z you get nothing [140:08] out of the wheel but you know exactly [140:10] what to do with your hands every single [140:11] time yeah my grade um [140:16] oh all right we got 40 minutes to [140:18] answer questions i'm going to start [140:19] powering through these marks all right [140:21] okay [140:22] um [140:24] and probably chen say around like [140:26] 640-ish [140:28] stop taking paid questions because i'm [140:30] not sure if we're going to be able to [140:31] answer them or 6 45 yeah so you're what [140:33] you're going to do is if you want to [140:34] donate obviously you can donate i'm not [140:37] going to stop you because jack's driving [140:39] me crazy with all his [140:41] his boards he's ordering to my house so [140:44] if you want to donate go ahead but if [140:45] you expecting to donate to get a [140:47] question answered you're really cutting [140:48] it close here so just plan on cutting it [140:50] off [140:52] in like 10 minutes [140:53] and chris as well if you see [140:55] a lot of the same [140:57] uh question over and over again [141:00] put it in the discord for me so i can [141:02] answer that and [141:03] we are going to release the discord and [141:06] chris will be the moderator for it yes [141:09] and it will be for patreon uh and if [141:11] it's a disaster i'll blame chris yes [141:14] this is why i'm having chris do it [141:15] because it's easier to [141:17] to blame him yeah yeah that's the whole [141:19] thing i learned to go back to living in [141:20] the dumpster i got to get this this name [141:23] i learned today and one of my [141:24] appointments is like a way that it's [141:26] like a technical term for when you set [141:28] yourself up [141:29] for all your failures you can set [141:31] yourself up to blame everybody else for [141:32] the failures and you never accept worse [141:34] it's it's something like amazing i can't [141:36] remember it but i'll i'll get it before [141:38] this video is a gm [141:42] that was you know there was a supplier [141:44] issue that wasn't us come on [141:46] [Laughter] [141:48] andrew carbone [141:50] that's an amazing um [141:52] 20 thank you for that andrew forty to [141:54] fifty thousand dollars something that's [141:56] fun useful wagon or suv lease so don't [141:59] give me a about long term [142:00] reliability do me [142:03] sorry uh forty to fifty thousand dollars [142:05] it's at least that's a wagon or suv [142:07] that's fun [142:09] oh wagon if the g if the golf r is [142:12] within the [142:13] realm of being big enough for you that [142:15] would be your great lease car [142:17] um [142:18] fun though of suvs for 40 to 50 grand [142:21] that's least what's fun [142:23] that's the least man that's hard at [142:25] least he's leasing it [142:29] yeah what piles are out there that are [142:30] fun to drive that are suvs that are [142:32] under fifty thousand dollars rdx is that [142:35] even fun kind of kind of [142:37] x3 sort of not really if you can get [142:39] them for that i don't know if you can [142:40] get the six cylinder for that much money [142:42] q5 you can i know for a fact you can't [142:44] get for that much money i would say [142:46] honestly rdx if you want an suv but if [142:49] you want like a hatchback or something [142:51] uh rdx sh all wheel drive not the golf r [142:54] golf r yeah that's yeah that's a good [142:56] call [142:57] wagon [143:01] xc40 [143:03] recharge with the e all-wheel drive [143:04] system that never works that would be [143:06] real fun um man that one's hard for 40 [143:08] to 50. used [143:11] s sq5 if you want an suv [143:14] what about the rav4 prime where the back [143:16] end is randomly oversteers you know [143:18] we're silver steers because the the [143:20] transmission is like i don't know what's [143:22] happening be a shoe for uh for ten [143:24] dollars okay so the phrase for when you [143:27] set yourself up for where you're not to [143:29] blame and you blame everybody else's [143:31] attributional bias [143:35] just wanted to thank you guys for your [143:37] hard work never miss a video daily [143:39] driver 21 1le camaro [143:42] want to go find the right fiesta c to [143:45] daily drive and save the camaro for [143:47] weekends any advice [143:49] man well if you're in the midwest don't [143:50] buy one here [143:52] if yes st he wants to daily drive one of [143:54] those and save the camaro for weekends [143:57] what do you mean don't buy one here [143:58] don't buy one from illinois yeah because [144:00] they'll be rotted out oh yeah yeah yeah [144:02] don't buy anything from illinois by the [144:03] way [144:04] jack was talking trash about florida go [144:06] to florida to buy a car at least their [144:07] cars are nice there yeah don't come to [144:09] illinois for anything that you want nice [144:11] that's for sure uh [144:13] 8th gen civic would also be a cool car [144:15] for like 10 15 grand fun i know you hate [144:17] the dash but that's a cool car k20 that [144:19] car need i could get one for if i could [144:21] get one for like eight grand and then [144:23] have king motorsports put about 20 grand [144:26] into the okay so it would make 240 [144:28] horsepower and make no power and torque [144:30] but it would sound like you you'd be [144:32] okay with it yeah i'd be like all right [144:34] now i'm the ultimate hazel green [144:36] for five dollars thanks again guys thank [144:38] you i think you may have answered my [144:39] question earlier so re-watch the [144:40] recording through the part i missed keep [144:42] up the good stuff thank you thank you [144:44] hazel thanks everybody seriously dan [144:46] thank you for the ten dollars and thanks [144:48] for the kind words of saying keep up the [144:50] great work [144:51] jw in hd thank you for the 50 donations [144:54] hey guys i have an i-40 m50 on order i [144:57] really enjoyed your guys review most of [144:59] the press unknowingly has been whether [145:01] this car is an evm3 can you guys speak [145:05] a little more in depth about how it [145:06] compares other m sport models like the [145:08] m340i [145:10] talking about the i4 yeah the i4m [145:14] it's not [145:15] uh it's not as organic to drive as the [145:18] m340i i think the b58 we talked about in [145:21] the video yeah yeah [145:22] it's better in some ways because it's ev [145:25] and it's worse in some ways because it's [145:27] eevee because there is a disconnect [145:28] between the front and the rear that the [145:29] regular cars don't have that problem [145:31] with they feel like and it's partly the [145:34] weight too you have the weight to lug [145:36] around in that thing um so dynamically [145:39] like what we're talking about how the [145:40] front and rear end of the car respond [145:42] when you're turning in like you do this [145:44] in like a regular rear wheel drive 3 [145:47] series you turn in the back starts to [145:49] rotate naturally and it's like real [145:51] smooth inputs to get it to do what you [145:52] want your pedal pressure and all of that [145:55] all match up with the ev you ram rod it [145:57] in a corner you hit the gas like the [146:00] front has power and then there's a delay [146:02] between which drive motor is powering [146:04] what so what you get is like a shunt in [146:06] the front and then a kick in the back [146:08] and it feels like the car is going in [146:10] two separate directions when you drive [146:11] it hard and that's where the evs are [146:14] really struggling right now because [146:15] there's no mechanical connection it's [146:18] software to turn on and off the motors [146:20] and that it's not like [146:21] hyper linear power delivery where it's [146:24] natural um that's what i would say it's [146:26] not just the bmw like the gv60 we just [146:29] drove is even like 25 percent more [146:31] disconnected than that i mean that's [146:33] where you're gonna see this first gen [146:35] car really age poorly until they can get [146:37] everything talking to each other [146:40] yeah i think [146:42] you'll really like the car [146:43] and i think some of our complaints [146:44] really only exist if you're pushing them [146:46] really really hard which would be fair [146:47] it's not a real m car yeah you're not [146:49] gonna be taken to the track [146:50] but the m340i as far as like a [146:52] regular-ish sedan it's not regular it's [146:55] 60 or 50 000 [146:57] is more normal feeling than [146:59] than your i50m will be but yeah yeah [147:02] there are lots of benefits of the ev [147:04] power training like speed overall [147:06] refinement and rigidity to the body [147:09] um [147:11] andrew fernandez thank you for the two [147:12] dollar donation e train for two dollars [147:15] savage geese 2024 mark [147:18] you can run against the other old dudes [147:20] yeah that's what's going to happen i'm [147:21] going to be like 65 and i can't get a cr [147:24] i can't get a corporate job anymore [147:25] because i aged out you're going to run [147:26] for paul and nobody's like nobody cares [147:29] what i say because all the 20 year olds [147:31] are like you know i don't even know what [147:33] it's going to be so the only thing i'll [147:35] be left to do is run for local politics [147:37] in a town with 500 people where i [147:38] actually have a chance of winning [147:39] because there's nobody else running and [147:41] then i'll take it from there and just [147:44] it sounds like a great place come move [147:46] to my town it's i don't know what town [147:48] oh like what town should i take indiana [147:50] no gary's too big that's a huge town [147:53] like i said 500 people at lady lake [147:56] that's huge too it's got to be like [147:59] bottomsville or something it's just [148:01] horses and juan thank you for the 25 uh [148:05] mx [148:06] uh speeding 20 [148:08] how do you think the next generation of [148:09] m cars and porsches will perform as [148:11] track vehicles once they become fully ev [148:14] will they make gas powered counterparts [148:16] obsolete [148:18] yes and no [148:20] the reason you're going to like gas cars [148:22] is that you feel something and you hear [148:23] something yeah it's it's the argument [148:26] that i didn't have this with who did i [148:28] have the argument with eb oh uh [148:30] uh about the tycon calvin kelvin so i'm [148:33] like [148:34] i told him you you put fake engine noise [148:36] or fake noise in an eevee it's not the [148:39] same they're trying to create that [148:40] emotion [148:41] um and it's not the same as like [148:44] having [148:46] hearing and feeling the vibration an [148:48] engine sound like from a hellcat or [148:50] something or a v8 that has this sonic [148:52] presence pure evs so porsha is using the [148:56] cayman as an eevee race car i sent you [148:58] the video where it's chris harris yeah [148:59] that's real eevee noise it sounds [149:01] horrible oh yeah well yeah where you you [149:04] get a headache listening to it i'll just [149:05] put it this way the best way to explain [149:07] it is if sound wasn't important we would [149:10] not be listening to music we wouldn't [149:12] care about music and we wouldn't care [149:13] about like movies and all that stuff [149:15] because sound is really a part of the [149:16] human experience and i know that not [149:19] everybody's blessed with hearing but in [149:21] terms of cars [149:22] the sound is really it's been a part of [149:24] it since cars have been online in the [149:26] modern age and that's going to be sorely [149:28] missed and you can't really replace it [149:30] through synthesis [149:31] uh pan 46 for five dollars jack you said [149:34] you wrote in both the regular [149:36] uh gr corolla and the morizo gr corolla [149:39] is there a difference in driving dynamic [149:41] substantial does the regular car [149:43] understeer i will tell you what the pro [149:45] driver freddie i can't remember his full [149:48] name he's a drifter told me about [149:50] driving both and i will say this to you [149:51] guys as well [149:52] so i wrote them both one was on cup cup [149:55] twos and the other one was on pilot [149:57] super sports i think so obviously [149:58] there's a huge grip level between both [150:01] and that's the primary difference that i [150:03] felt as a passenger it was not the [150:05] driver the understeer question [150:07] the car under steers when it's in track [150:10] mode a little bit because it's still an [150:12] all-wheel drive car in 50 50. they said [150:14] when the car was in sport mode [150:16] it's almost too oversteery [150:18] which is to me it's a good thing to kind [150:20] of hear that there is a little bit of [150:22] playfulness but they say it's [150:23] ballistically fast for what it is [150:26] that's coming from the pro drivers [150:28] that so that's why you're getting one [150:30] and i'm getting a civic type r [150:32] and i'm going to show you the real [150:34] japanese engineering jack [150:36] front-wheel drive specific has too many [150:38] cylinders dude this the thing is is you [150:40] know [150:41] we don't have to talk about oh is this [150:42] car going to all is this cargo is it [150:45] sending enough power back i don't have [150:46] to worry about what that with the civic [150:48] type r i just have to worry about all [150:49] that power being sent to two premium [150:51] wheels [150:53] um [150:54] puzzle bunny for five dollars [150:57] uh best and more steering wheels you've [150:58] used not necessarily steering but [151:01] controls and textures on the hand i hate [151:04] that genesis wheel that's all weird [151:07] like on the [151:08] gv80 or no the g g or whatever the the [151:11] new 80s and then the 90s steering wheel [151:13] for me all the haptic oh yeah [151:15] yeah from usability standpoint that's [151:17] the worst uh the new lexus one where [151:19] they have the touch d-pad [151:21] i know some people really hate that i [151:23] get it i kind of like it but it's not [151:25] good um but that's far from the worst [151:27] juan r mx25 thank you sorry juan hart [151:30] thank you for the uh the 25 donation [151:34] sean smith thank you for the two dollar [151:36] donation and thank you for saying keep [151:38] up the good work thank you uh logan for [151:41] ten dollars just took delivery of my [151:42] mach 1 6b manual in eruption green [151:46] that sounds like an std uh with the [151:48] handling pack last week after waiting 13 [151:51] months oh my god first mustang first v8 [151:54] come drive it much low from denver we [151:56] are doing a mach 1 video this summer [151:58] allegedly the mach 1 i'm really looking [152:00] forward to that one because hopefully [152:01] it's like the gt350 it should be [152:03] everything that you could possibly want [152:05] from a mustang with reliability and [152:07] better because it's got the gt350 or the [152:09] traumatic gearbox too right [152:11] yeah sean smith ever thought of doing [152:14] uh [152:15] a video on the last gen c63 507 rented [152:18] one on turo the 6.3 was very special [152:21] massive seat bolsters i've driven one on [152:23] track actually they're great cars which [152:24] car was that the last gen c63 the one [152:27] with the turbo v8 that's a [152:29] missile it's a cool car we just [152:31] we we haven't been offered one [152:33] and it's i can imagine i i i don't [152:35] remember driving i don't think i [152:37] i don't think i did but i can just [152:38] imagine that it's like a it's a muscle [152:41] car yeah i said one is shane's buddies [152:42] from face garage had one i drove it at [152:44] uh rpm before the track got all [152:46] up that thing's hilarious okay i think [152:48] the base ones were open oh is that the [152:49] one that once slightly slid off the road [152:51] like it spun out there a couple no no [152:53] you think that was the old c6 [152:56] uh sean smith [152:58] uh no i just answered that one ken for [153:01] two dollars unaffordable comment six uh [153:05] six gen s i matters just send it [153:08] six gen si yeah that's the two four [153:10] wasn't it [153:11] no that was the one point six that's the [153:13] one we drove yeah sorry ninth gen [153:15] assignment oh nine yeah yeah that's when [153:17] they switched to 2.4 [153:18] i had a roommate who owned one in [153:20] college uh ed camden thank you for the [153:22] ten dollars [153:24] felonious monk that is a premium name [153:27] for twenty dollars [153:28] thank you costs the environment to make [153:30] eevee seem to [153:32] cost of the environments to make evs [153:34] seem to be a lot more than ice cars [153:38] when in an evs life cycle does it truly [153:41] make up for all that pollution will tech [153:43] make them obsolete before they get to [153:45] that point thanks for the vids [153:47] uh we've had this conversation before [153:49] and it's a real sticky one because [153:52] when i first started doing these videos [153:53] i reached out to multiple manufacturers [153:55] to say can you provide me the supply [153:58] chain and all the parts that come from [154:00] all the suppliers to do battery tech [154:01] electric motors and all that [154:04] none of them could provide me that [154:06] information because it's so complicated [154:09] and proprietary for them to actually [154:11] tell us how these things are made so [154:13] with that understanding there's no [154:15] possible way that you can really [154:17] gauge all the materials and all the [154:19] costs because if you have so many [154:21] different suppliers working on it um [154:23] it's impossible for again for us to [154:25] really disseminate what goes into it [154:28] um i i will say they're making strides [154:32] on like getting near the point of having [154:35] minimal amounts of cobalt and lithium [154:37] batteries 100 [154:39] recyclability to the the battery packs [154:41] and the new [154:43] lyric according to the like the foremost [154:46] expert on like electrification for gm's [154:49] that they're basically entirely [154:50] recyclable okay so i i think we're going [154:52] to get to that place where they're going [154:54] to figure out by necessity because [154:56] supply [154:57] in demand supply is going to be so tight [155:00] based on demand right and once if [155:03] they're really trying to make this this [155:04] work by like 2030 and especially [155:06] countries that are banning ice i think [155:08] they're going to be in for a rude [155:09] awakening the fact that there's not [155:10] going to be enough battery supply to to [155:12] make all these cars so that's going to [155:14] delay everything anyway um but you have [155:16] manufacturers like bmw you have [155:18] manufacturers like toyota you have [155:21] mercedes talking about carbon neutrality [155:23] like literally getting to a place where [155:25] you know they're offsetting a lot of [155:28] this manufacturing and trying to go [155:30] clean and a lot of them are some of it's [155:32] just pure marketing um [155:36] but it's gonna take a long time so you [155:38] can't just go overnight and switch from [155:40] internal combustion to electric and just [155:41] everything's fine you're going to have [155:43] to [155:44] get rid of that over a long period of [155:46] time and i think eventually as [155:48] technology picks up it could be much [155:49] cleaner but then you have the problem [155:51] depending on what country you're in with [155:53] the the power grid which we're already [155:55] experiencing it's bad here for evs [155:57] already but we don't have charging [155:59] infrastructure on the charging [156:00] infrastructure we have that's bad [156:02] most of our state or well where we're at [156:04] is nuclear power but that can't get [156:07] funded they're having problems funding [156:08] it it's hyper expensive they haven't [156:10] been updated well they haven't been [156:12] built anything since the 70s there's the [156:14] power grid problem is a whole separate [156:16] story it's part of this big conversation [156:18] that you're not going to get a lot of [156:19] straight answers from from the [156:21] manufacturers or the the the brand reps [156:24] and the engineers to really tell you the [156:26] numbers compared and um i don't have the [156:29] energy to try to chase all that down [156:30] anymore so [156:32] that's a long answer to something that i [156:34] didn't give you a straight answer all [156:35] right so i'm trying to speed through [156:36] this sorry oh no no worries i mean he [156:38] deserves a real answer [156:39] um muhammad hassan any thoughts i thank [156:43] you for the five dollars thank you uh [156:44] thoughts on the future of tesla and elon [156:47] after he fired 200 autonomous driving [156:49] engineers [156:51] that that company you know like it's [156:53] hard i think what that company is going [156:54] to have to do is [156:56] put elon out to pasture i'll be honest [156:59] like or put him in a different role [157:00] because he's he's basically going to [157:02] start to get in the way of growth [157:05] based on my understanding talking to [157:07] some of the engineers who work at that [157:08] company he does already get in the way [157:10] okay so but to an even more extreme [157:12] element as there's a downward cycle [157:14] it doesn't really matter to him honestly [157:16] what happens to that company because [157:18] he's got he's he's all over the place [157:20] and the interviews he said plainly and a [157:22] lot of people talk about him the most [157:24] effective leaders are those that uh [157:26] there was a paypal engineer that was [157:27] talking about him and he said elon was [157:30] great because he was guy that was not [157:32] one track minded he had to be dealing [157:34] with so many things at once but at the [157:36] level that he's at he's becoming [157:38] ineffective at doing what he's good at [157:40] because like one week he cares about [157:42] tesla and he's talking about the next [157:44] week he's over talking about instagram [157:46] or social media like it's just it's a [157:48] distraction to tesla as a brand so i i [157:51] don't know what they do but the big the [157:53] big thing is if they don't make a change [157:54] fast as all these other companies come [157:56] online big car companies that know what [157:58] they're doing their time is driving in [157:59] comparison to gm super cruise is a [158:01] joke right now yeah i mean i've [158:03] been telling him this all the time super [158:05] cruise and the escalades at least is [158:08] amazing in comparison to what uh [158:11] the autopilot is the autopilot that we [158:13] had on the model 3 was horrifying yeah [158:16] this is good yeah yeah and again it's [158:19] it's not so much that tesla is bad or [158:21] good it's just they are at a severe [158:23] disadvantage as competition catches up [158:26] when they catch up and start chewing [158:27] into their pro products i don't see [158:29] tesla i don't know what they do [158:32] um and if elon keeps spooking away [158:34] investors or becomes less of a magic man [158:36] and they don't have the influx of cash [158:39] they're they're in a lot of trouble [158:40] and i think a lot of companies are going [158:43] to see this though it's not just tesla [158:44] you're going to see a lot of head count [158:45] cutting all over the place as the [158:46] economy like shifts around so i don't [158:48] want to just say they're done but they [158:50] got some work to do for sure [158:52] um let me get back to all of this fun [158:55] stuff uh [158:57] ed camden do you still think the current [158:59] es 350 is the best premium middle class [159:02] family fancy sedan for newly married [159:04] couple thank you for ed for the ten [159:06] dollars by the way in their early [159:08] forties at least seven to 10 years until [159:10] eevees are yes i'll make a straight [159:12] answer it's it's that good it's a zero [159:14] worry car that does almost everything [159:16] as good as you could possibly ask like a [159:18] a basic luxury car and a functional [159:21] appliance while feeling special at the [159:23] same time chris for seven dollars [159:24] canadian thanks chris do you think we'll [159:27] see a new generation miata soon [159:28] hopefully before everything goes [159:29] electric nope [159:31] i don't think so unless they're hiding [159:33] something but when we did our stuff they [159:35] we were told that it wasn't being [159:37] developed yet they had not even started [159:39] work or talk of development so unless [159:41] they pulled something out of their head [159:42] that we don't know about [159:44] andrew bordeaux [159:46] andrew that is a tremendous last name uh [159:49] thank you for the 20 as a [159:51] patagonia-wearing 30-something asian [159:53] living in midwest who likes reviews [159:56] filled with adolescent humor tech detail [159:58] and presentation value i feel like i am [160:00] the epitome of the target demographic [160:02] good stuff well you are actually focus [160:04] group just people like that you only [160:06] focus group patagonia people patagonia [160:09] half asian tech obsessed 30 something [160:12] you want to know why patagonia makes so [160:13] much money because jack buys all the [160:15] analytic data from all the social media [160:17] platforms to find out who's buying [160:19] patagonia who's searching it and then he [160:21] just target targets all those people [160:23] like the reason you found us is because [160:25] jack basically paid to find you exactly [160:28] carmelo thank you for the ten dollars [160:30] mitch a for five dollars sold my manual [160:32] c6 z51 [160:34] trading in my 21 wrangler as well on an [160:37] m240i when it comes in for michigan [160:39] winners good compromise moving to one [160:41] car yes it's a great car i think you'll [160:43] really like it it's a good combo of [160:45] it'll probably honestly be faster than [160:46] the c6 um [160:49] and i don't i like the wrangler and i [160:51] don't at the same time uh agree [160:53] yes [160:54] uh blaine for five dollars you said [160:56] porsche employees seem to have genuine [160:57] passion and a couple other brands what [160:59] are the other brands [161:05] and some of the gm engineers that i've [161:07] met i mean is it brands as a whole full [161:10] full representation what do you think it [161:14] is vw too our specific vw reps that [161:18] we've dealt with are amazing i wouldn't [161:20] well i would agree with part of that but [161:22] holistically as a brand sure yeah okay [161:24] well i'm talking about full scope [161:26] not just like individuals you like [161:28] portion mazda the problem toyota has [161:30] here in the u.s and i will say honda too [161:33] yeah honda our reps at honda [161:36] are great and they will do their [161:38] damnedest to get information right [161:41] so all right the the japanese car [161:42] companies basically but that doesn't [161:44] mean that the other companies are bad i [161:46] don't want to throw people under the bus [161:47] either because obviously we have to walk [161:48] a fine line with this but some of the [161:50] companies that can't that are not good [161:53] is because they're not effective because [161:54] they run too lean subaru is one of those [161:56] that runs very lean and everybody knows [161:58] that it's not it's and the subaru guys [162:00] are great to work with they're great to [162:01] work with but they don't have a lot of [162:02] resources the other company that has a [162:04] big a hard time is like genesis as a [162:07] brand yeah it was like what no no now [162:09] they have two dudes oh they do have two [162:11] but basically they had one guy for all [162:13] of north america essentially for like [162:15] two years or like two and you can't be [162:17] you can't run a brand that way i'm sorry [162:20] um [162:21] so there it's just it's more indicative [162:23] of like resources time that these [162:24] companies have and you can tell the [162:26] well-established brands they're well [162:27] oiled porsche does not have a lot of [162:29] people but the people they have are [162:31] highly highly effective they know how to [162:34] run a [162:35] team purposely limit they are very [162:37] strict gatekeepers [162:39] but they have to be so that's a great [162:40] example of [162:42] you know know your strengths [162:43] pick the people you want to work with [162:45] and and harbor those relationships [162:48] and stick with that you don't need to [162:51] this whole concept of like what ford and [162:53] gm do we're everyone in the world [162:54] everybody let's just bring in everybody [162:56] you bring people in off the streets [162:58] anybody you know and then you [163:00] have a lot of dead weight this is the [163:02] old way of doing stuff dead weight [163:03] deadweight people that don't pull their [163:05] weight don't provide any value whereas [163:07] the smaller companies can cater and and [163:10] harbor that and know what works and what [163:12] doesn't and be more selective and it's [163:13] better that way and you get better [163:15] treatment you get more information you [163:16] get more focused information [163:18] and they actually can control their pr [163:21] and media a bit better even if we don't [163:23] necessarily agree with their wraps at [163:24] least they offer valid counterpoints [163:28] um hopefully that answers that [163:30] rob for a thousand yen [163:33] guys 991 thank you thank you by the way [163:36] uh guys 991.2 gt3 touring or 992 gt3 [163:40] touring also would you get a turbo s [163:43] over a gt3 for everyday use [163:46] okay so 992 beats regen for me okay okay [163:50] just because of the suspension the front [163:51] suspension if you're would you get a gt3 [163:54] 992 or a turbo s if all you're doing is [163:56] driving on the street the turbo s will [163:58] make you far more happy [164:00] honestly it's it's more of a you have [164:02] the wow factor of the handling and all [164:04] the stuff that goes along with the speed [164:06] it's a great car it's hyper expensive [164:08] but if if you want this more special [164:10] experience that gt3 is that you're just [164:12] going to stay the only thing you're [164:13] going to sacrifice is harshness in terms [164:16] of like ride quality and just there's a [164:18] lot more buzziness a lot more going on [164:20] inside the cabin but that's also part of [164:21] its charm and the motor is more special [164:23] the motor is way more special not as [164:26] fast but way more in both gearboxes the [164:28] eight [164:29] speed dual clutch is not as special [164:32] 8-speed pdk is not as special as a [164:33] 7-speed pdk [164:35] it's something about the ratios and the [164:36] way it interacts with the engine i think [164:38] that like i said the pdks and the gt [164:40] cars are weight like just the tuning is [164:42] better [164:42] um [164:43] 991.2 gt3 versus 992 if you like gt3s [164:47] 991.2 is a softer car on the street i [164:49] think the limits are lower [164:51] it's a smaller car [164:53] i [164:54] prefer the way it looks mark can't tell [164:55] the difference for some reason i can't [164:57] they all look the same to me i just care [164:58] about the way they drive the interior is [165:00] far better in the 992 and the front end [165:02] of the gt3 is a night and day difference [165:05] that's all that's really good i don't [165:06] know two sounds better though barely but [165:09] yeah barely you're splitting hairs uh [165:12] gage morgan for five dollars just [165:13] recently picked up a 22 gtis other than [165:16] tires what would you recommend as the [165:17] first performance part upgrade for my [165:19] driving enjoyment [165:20] brake pads and fluid yeah yeah for sure [165:23] tires brake fat plat [165:25] tires brake pads and fluid easy i [165:28] wouldn't touch anything else on that car [165:29] maybe a rear sway bar if you want it to [165:31] be a little bit more oversteer [165:33] or just take the front sway bar off [165:36] yeah i don't know what for free yeah [165:38] um [165:39] [Music] [165:41] oldie [165:42] uh [165:43] for five dollars only deuce for five [165:45] dollars have you ever planned on making [165:47] your audiographs available on a database [165:48] we should do that i've i've wanted to do [165:51] that and this is just my fault that's [165:53] but i'm gonna i could have blamed [165:54] somebody else and dubbed the what the [165:56] whatever quote i had earlier uh the [165:58] reason why is because i was supposed to [165:59] switch over the website to uh an [166:01] australian was helping me is that he was [166:03] a viewer and he was very very helpful [166:06] and i just have not had time to follow [166:07] through on all that [166:09] i do need to get a database driven site [166:11] where i can actually store those and [166:13] make them searchable [166:14] and i haven't done it but yes that's a [166:16] long term project [166:17] may need to sell my payton for five [166:19] dollars may need to sell my c6 manual [166:21] grand sport is there a better reliable [166:23] rear wheel drive driver's car for less [166:25] than 40 grand not a daily care most [166:26] about raw experience [166:29] the auto [166:31] indeed miata on gr86 yeah for under 40 [166:35] grand reliable [166:40] yeah raw and he wants raw mustang isn't [166:43] necessarily that raw now you got to go [166:44] up to the high-end stuff so yeah miata [166:47] and ng already even the miata is not [166:49] really all that raw i mean with the [166:51] stock suspension you have to do work on [166:53] both those cars you have to do work [166:54] that's that was the point earlier like [166:56] cars are not like they used to be where [166:59] i'm just god i sound so old saying this [167:00] but those older cars because there were [167:02] more ship boxes they had more feel to [167:04] them and all the new cars have to be so [167:05] overly refined that even though they're [167:07] the most raw cars that you can get [167:09] they're still not raw enough you know [167:10] you have to make changes david benz [167:12] thank you for the five dollars senor [167:15] filet a scott thank you for the 50 [167:17] donation thank you [167:19] optimus 30 for five dollars [167:22] have a [167:24] uh [167:25] 2016 brz want fun sub 15 000 car can [167:30] haul a few people would focus sd work [167:32] would love a speed three tough to

you can i think you'll [167:43] really like it to me that's a car again [167:45] that needs suspension work like but i [167:47] guess if you're getting it cheap enough [167:48] you can get a i'm not talking about like [167:51] you know fifteen hundred dollar [167:53] coilovers i'm talking about like twenty [167:55] five hundred dollars it's gen [167:57] yeah s uh the focus st [168:00] fiesta st

subaru with a 10 foot pole at that price [168:11] point yeah i don't agree with you on [168:12] that i saw the hatch sti today in purple [168:15] like like yeah you ain't getting one for [168:17] 15. well that's like a 30 green card [168:19] that's true sorry fifteen thousand [168:21] dollar subaru was like a vaped out yeah [168:23] like something like third total they've [168:25] been totaled for

[168:57] driven the lyric and i have the the i [169:00] need to drive it but i have my biases [169:01] towards it already i looked at jack's [169:03] like man it looks good and i see the [169:04] picture i'm like looks like a [169:06] malibu max [169:07] you know like it does not look good to [169:09] me i'm sorry but then again i have not [169:10] seen it in person i've not driven it so [169:12] it's like i'm pretty judging it so maybe [169:14] it's great i mean it's not a perfect car [169:16] and like in retrospect there's some [169:17] things i don't like about the interior [169:18] but i like that they attempted to try i [169:20] hate all the plastic chrome [169:22] on the interior but the [169:23] cadillac [169:24] um joseph will will we see [169:29] joseph thank you

storage space was enormous for what [170:08] it was without going to like a minivan [170:10] the x7 was less but very similar with a [170:13] much better drivetrain if i didn't need [170:15] that that

dude that's a way [170:38] better car than the lc500 convertible [170:41] specifically [170:43] yes if you're coming from a convertible [170:44] lc [170:46] there's some really great it's not going [170:47] to be as comfortable as lc convertible [170:49] not even remotely close no so you're [170:51] taking you're taking probably a 50 [170:53] reduction in comfort for 190 [170:57] improvement in drivability [171:00] and the porsches are either very [171:02] reliable or you're nick murray and [171:03] they're not reliable well i know there's [171:05] other people that have problems with [171:06] them but i mean they're it's not like it [171:08] used to be neil a for two dollars coming [171:10] from a coming type r [171:13] v versus corolla gr thoughts and [171:15] expectations i bet you the type bar is [171:17] faster than the corolla oh it better be [171:20] it's got an extra cylinder [171:22] [Laughter] [171:23] we're talking like this is where we're [171:25] arguing three cylinders now and [171:27] you know if i still somehow have the c7 [171:29] grand sport i'm gonna love having both [171:30] of those cars a 1.6 liter and a 6.2 at [171:33] the same time [171:35] oh i would say they're going to be [171:36] faster than your grand sport when i get [171:37] behind the wheel [171:38] yeah as you jump it off autobahn yeah [171:42] i that would i wonder how much money you [171:44] would take to get one so like [171:46] the grand sport around south runs a now [171:48] runs a well i'm not the world's greatest [171:50] driver by any means but with me behind [171:52] the wheel i can turn like a 133 around [171:54] south oh wow [171:56] um i mean that's brit casey's dad's gt4 [172:00] race car you know what they ran [172:01] i think it was like a 128 or something [172:03] oh wow yeah yeah that's as [172:06] moving yeah well that's a gt4 though [172:08] yeah i know [172:09] anyway um that was a kind of a weird [172:13] segue there driver sl for 10 [172:16] what [172:17] what cars do you two own and what's next [172:19] i just sold my z28 for a zillion us [172:21] dollars on bat [172:23] oh wow [172:25] z28 sold it yeah i wonder how much it [172:27] really made [172:28] probably a lot those cars were worthless [172:30] for a long time like what 90 grand maybe [172:32] you made i have no idea you probably did [172:34] really well it's a cool car uh what do [172:36] you own now mark x7 [172:39] s2000 [172:40] that's it right yeah for me yeah and [172:42] your girlfriend is a rav4 [172:45] my girlfriend has a rav4 as well [172:47] and [172:48] i have a gr86 and a c7 grand sport [172:52] yep [172:53] there's probably going to get [172:54] consolidated for me like unless [172:56] something changes it's gonna get reduced [172:58] probably even further i'm not driving [173:00] the s2000 anymore [173:02] well i am driving it but not on the [173:03] track anymore so i'm gonna stop that i [173:05] thought if i think if i got if money was [173:07] okay i would try to find an nsx or a gt3 [173:10] those are about the only two cars that i [173:12] would consider at this point if not i'm [173:14] getting rid of that seven going to siena [173:16] and then really going downhill from [173:18] there i can plan for my retirement [173:22] uh joseph thank you for the five dollars [173:25] jeremy thanks for the ten dollars thank [173:27] you guys for the quality in-depth [173:29] reviews big reason i got my s2000 was [173:30] your tribute video question is [173:34] uh question is if you could only have [173:35] one card for the rest of your life what [173:36] would it be gt3 [173:40] i would make every consolidation in the [173:42] world if i could just only own a gt3 [173:43] yeah i think that would be cool i'd [173:45] probably mirror that and if i had no [173:47] money was not an option maybe like a 458 [173:49] or an lfa [173:51] for the same reasons of the gt3 just [173:53] more money i would love to have the only [173:54] lfa in the world of 400 000 miles yeah [173:57] no doubt i mean i mean so the s2000 just [173:59] briefly like how much time we have left [174:01] five minutes [174:03] how many questions we have a lot a lot [174:05] um [174:06] we're going to be doing a video on the [174:07] nsx [174:09] the first gen one and 92 gt3 if anyone's [174:12] yeah yeah i agree with that um [174:15] we're going to be doing a first gen nsx [174:16] video and the new one is going to sneak [174:18] in there too as a part of it but [174:20] the goal is to have something that [174:22] nobody's ever done before and basically [174:24] a close-out to that era [174:27] um [174:28] in a way that again is probably going to [174:30] be very long-lasting and part of my goal [174:33] is to go back [174:34] a little bit [174:35] and finish the s2000 project with the [174:38] resources that i'm gonna finally have [174:40] hopefully this is gonna pan out and i'll [174:42] be able to close out the s2000 era as [174:44] well [174:45] with uh the nsx like separate videos [174:48] um and bow out of those and i think [174:51] people really really find them special i [174:53] just hope that it all works out the way [174:54] it's supposed to [174:56] uh going back to the questions and again [175:00] hopefully you guys get some value out of [175:01] this i'm really trying to answer all [175:03] your questions and hopefully you know [175:05] you can get your burning [175:07] questions that you've always wanted to [175:08] ask us answered in these things um [175:10] that's why we do it [175:12] uh [175:13] jeremy [175:14] i know i just answered jeremy's question [175:16] i apologize [175:17] bing bigger evo or sti [175:24] down there that's what i meant [175:26] can you sort by that yeah yeah um [175:30] uh well again [175:33] evo if you really really like i think it [175:36] was always more considered the circuit [175:37] car so that's why i like if it like the [175:40] track car whereas the sti is like the [175:42] all-arounder so if you don't like it [175:43] tear up the tracks then that's ti [175:46] dan knowles again thank you as always [175:48] for your donation dan thank you buddy uh [175:51]

greatest porsche ever thanks 914 [176:04] was good we screwed that or i screwed [176:06] the video up dan like that car was [176:08] supposed to be talked about more but we [176:10] didn't know what we were supposed to do [176:12] and the fact that we had the six [176:13] cylinder one was neat it was the hardest [176:15] one to drive though it was the hardest [176:16] one to drive but it was also the most [176:18] engaging car to drive um the but the [176:20] speedster really because we had the most [176:22] footage of it and it was really cool and [176:24] it was nice the weather was still

don't know the number [178:37] yeah but it's the same mentality right [178:39] the same thing yeah if you like [178:40] wrenching and you really want to get [178:41] engrossed into that that's a great car [178:43] to do it on the noodles for five dollars [178:45] hey guys i bought a launcher and dct a [178:47] few weeks ago in part because of your [178:48] review [178:49] first performance vehicle i've owned and [178:51] i absolutely love it congrats dude yeah [178:53] that's an amazing first performance car [178:55] to drive or own adrian thank you for the [178:57] ten dollars cross shopping question does [179:00] an m340i do anything better than a ticon [179:04] i'm wondering if whether the m340i is [179:07] special enough to ditch my existing car [179:09] ford or i should keep saving for a ticon [179:14] i wouldn't get a tycon if you're saving [179:15] for it [179:16] because i think it's a here and now [179:17] product yeah agreed [179:20] yeah yeah i i would not go outside your [179:22] budget for a tag on it's it's a great [179:24] car but it's not like it's the best [179:26] driving ev but in five years yeah it's [179:28] going to be completely forgettable in [179:30] terms of that once it gets improved so [179:32] yeah i mean you get a lot from the vm [179:33] because it was about the bmw right yeah [179:35] you're getting a lot for that rudy thank [179:37] you for the ten dollars love both of [179:39] your reviews especially when jack goes [179:41] oh yeah when launching cars [179:44] uh 2018 macan s [179:46] or s5 weird comparison would you have an [179:48] s5 or mcconaus [179:54] i actually think the meccan s drives [179:55] better dude i it does [179:58] it does [179:59] i shouldn't say that a fast suv drives [180:02] better than an s5 but the s5 is like the [180:04] thing with the s5 is it's like [180:07] slick [180:08] it's smooth and slick whereas the [180:10] mcconnel is kind of like it's got the [180:14] kind of the personality of the 718 a [180:16] little bit like with a sports car like [180:18] snappiness because it is [180:20] but yeah it feels like the the macan s [180:23] feels like a big hot hatchback yeah yeah [180:26] yeah but you're right uh so if you want [180:28] more of like a luxury cruiser the s is [180:30] gonna be way better for you uh in [180:32] cahoots for ten dollars thank you by the [180:34] way for the ten dollars [180:36] you guys will be happy to know i [180:37] recently sold my oh six exterior 4x4 [180:40] manual for seven thousand dollars i [180:42] originally paid five thousand dollars [180:43] six years ago and i live in milwaukee [180:46] that's how crazy the current market is [180:47] that's nuts i would love to have seen [180:49] what that exterior looked underneath oh [180:51] my goodness underneath from milwaukee [180:53] yeah yeah vm thank you for the ten [180:55] dollars alperbach broccoli for uh [180:58] 1967. thank you for your 520. thank you [181:01] sir i always appreciate you always agree [181:03] i love you sir how do you get excited or [181:06] even just stay interested in daily [181:07] driving on boeing flat straight roads [181:10] with severe penalties for excess [181:12] speeding [181:13] i'll tell you what i do i just turn the [181:15] wheel hard randomly in traffic [181:17] i'll do a u-turn for no reason uh it is [181:21] hard it really turns your brain off now [181:23] i think some of it is the fact that we [181:24] actually do go to the track enough not [181:27] like we don't live there but like let's [181:29] say we have a week or two weeks of the [181:32] month where we have to go to the track [181:33] it makes up for it it makes up because [181:35] you can blow like a half day or a day [181:37] driving these different cars and you're [181:39] like okay i got it out of my system for [181:41] me it's different now i i need to get [181:43] back into wheel to wheel like harding [181:45] because every every year that you you [181:47] stop doing it you lose your spatial [181:50] awareness you lose your ability to like [181:51] decision make behind the wheel quickly [181:54] and to me i lose so much and like when [181:56] we go out on the track and i'm just [181:57] driving there's nothing to set myself [182:00] like a time means nothing to me anymore [182:03] long block for two dollars you guys [182:05] revisited hiring people to help out [182:06] we're probably gonna revisit that around [182:08] december uh kind of sign for five [182:10] dollars i'm in debt [182:12] and must run hedge clippings in the [182:15] sonola home owners association what car [182:18] is most inconspicuous to law [182:21] while remaining fun [182:24] malibu max [182:25] ss [182:28] oh man i don't know what an [182:29] inconspicuous fun car is [182:32] new si literally looks like a civic yeah [182:35] that's true i mean that's that's you [182:37] know [182:38] that's pretty normal like what about the [182:39] accord two leader manual that's a good [182:41] one too that's like super sleeper and i [182:43] mean it's probably really hard to find [182:45] prince it's nice to see you came back [182:46] from the dead thanks for the five [182:48] dollars canadian thank you uh gv60 [182:50] review is incoming yes it comes out this [182:52] friday yeah it's friday's video uh [182:55] sergey thank you for the ten dollars how [182:57] do you guys feel about chinese cars like [182:59] fa gilly neo [183:01] and light speed and uh and neo seem like [183:04] they've come at light speed difference [183:06] in just five years well we don't really [183:08] have any of them here right we don't [183:10] have any chinese dude you had a volvo [183:12] yeah but that wasn't you know what i [183:13] mean like yeah but i mean it wasn't a [183:15] volvo product at that point so i i mean [183:17] i guess we've done xc40 and xc or [183:20] whatever the other one at c40 which are [183:23] made in china or i think ours were um [183:26] but that's still it's got some volvo [183:28] parts to it so i can't really say [183:30] uh logan for five dollars if you had [183:32] regular office jobs what daily under 45 [183:35] gram sedan [183:36] would you buy that's comfortable [183:38] reliable in a normal old man car with [183:40] some enthusiast qualities for under 45 [183:42] grand [183:44] all right you got to answer that one tlx [183:46] it's got some enthusiast qualities [183:48] three series has got some enthusiast [183:50] qualities for under 45 grand [183:52] ah yes has got some enthusiast qualities [183:55] yeah i mean that's a tough one i [183:57] probably i'd probably agree with you on [183:58] the tlx i mean it's kind of like not [184:00] special but it is [184:02] um yeah i would say that or 3 series [184:05] because you can always [184:06] can you get a manual on a three series [184:07] now or do they kill that [184:10] no they killed that a long time ago you [184:12] can't get a manual in a three series [184:13] outside of an m3 [184:15] god oh sad place to be man there's not a [184:18] lot of fun stuff m by uh mb mbis [184:22] frenchie five dollars do you ever have a [184:24] deal or harass you and not take no for [184:25] an answer [184:27] yeah when i was younger well like i had [184:29] a dude uh when i was i was gonna trade [184:31] on the s2000 for a chord [184:33] chord v6 manual coupe well and then [184:36] didn't but the dealer would not let me [184:38] go they tried this the guy they brought [184:40] out three dudes they stood over me and [184:42] said holding out their hands to shake is [184:45] a deal and when i didn't shake their [184:46] hand they told me that they didn't think [184:47] i was man enough to buy this car that [184:49] they thought i was weak and that i was [184:51] wasting their time and that if i didn't [184:54] buy this car they would basically kick [184:56] my ass out of there it was so abusive [184:59] and i just couldn't believe it was [185:00] happening vm [185:02] for ten dollars moved to miami for [185:04] mother russia in 2020 at the moment i [185:06] have a gx 460 but considering buying a [185:08] new diesel suburban why is the truck [185:13] why this truck is so rear [185:16] the united states in other world [185:19] big suv and diesel are a must have oh [185:21] why is it so rare [185:23] because diesels are here in the u.s [185:26] expensive to run and operate [185:28] the break even from gas mileage to the [185:31] to the additional cost of the diesel to [185:33] service costs you get more mileage but [185:35] i'm you know it's market so our to the [185:38] the more straight answer is we don't [185:39] have a lot of diesel offerings here so [185:41] there's no like option the only option [185:44] for diesel's now are pickup trucks and [185:45] even that's getting axed so when your [185:48] petrol cars [185:50] are better and your options are better [185:52] because our four cylinders are bigger [185:53] here too that's the other thing like the [185:55] european like counterparts get like tiny [185:57] ass four cylinders with no power whereas [186:00] we're getting like the turbocharged [186:01] bigger displacement engine so there's no [186:03] point of having the diesels and it's [186:04] just a cultural thing [186:06] um [186:08] ha feed for ten dollars love what you do [186:11] how do you handle the delica dance of [186:13] being objective and also grateful for [186:14] companies that fly you out i've noticed [186:16] some youtubers are becoming chills [186:20] um so the best way to do it is to [186:22] involve the oem to evolve the company [186:24] that's making the car having them [186:26] understand what your goal is and getting [186:29] them if it's a controversial car like [186:31] the integra get them to explain their [186:33] side of the story and try to be as [186:35] objective as you can about what it is [186:37] from their perspective and letting the [186:39] viewers decide as you explain the pros [186:41] and the cons of the car um that's really [186:44] the way that i look at it now now there [186:46] are certain piles that are just junk [186:48] and i typically won't go to those events [186:51] i've told jack it's not worth me [186:52] traveling to essentially make no money [186:55] not give them any return [186:57] um all right we'll move on from there uh [186:59] gs thank you for the five dollars [187:01] purchase the 2015 accord v6 six speed [187:03] should i do anything to it [187:05] uh front camber bolts [187:08] uh chris [187:10] i'm sorry front [187:11] upper if it's the one that was double [187:14] wishbone oh that was when i think they [187:16] switched over to strut [187:17] they had you know it was a 2015 so it's [187:19] the last one they just said the coupe [187:21] with the v6 yeah but they switched over [187:23] to strut from double wishbone oh yeah [187:24] and that was that was like in the middle [187:26] it wasn't the two no that was i think [187:27] the last one was 2010 and then they [187:29] switched to strut after that so the [187:30] upper a arms you could replace on the [187:32] old ones with double wishbone the new [187:34] ones you have to do camber bolts or a [187:36] plate at the top if you get a lot more [187:38] camber in the front of that car it is so [187:40] much better to drive it doesn't like [187:42] give you

what's [190:34] your take on the mazda 2.5 turbo head [190:36] casting failures [190:42] i don't know i don't really have an [190:43] opinion on it honestly [190:45] i mean i don't know how many units did [190:47] it affect no [190:48] because i don't i remember hearing about [190:50] it but i didn't see how many of it [190:51] actually affected was it all of it [190:54] i have no idea [190:56] i've been kind of out of loop in the [190:57] mazda things because we haven't done it [190:58] because they really really were solid [191:01] um and that like the two liters were [191:03] hyper solid for a while so if there's if [191:05] there's like [191:06] more clarissa for ten dollars i'm going [191:09] to a trip to vegas soon i can rent [191:11] either a 2015 911 s for 179 or 2019 911 [191:17] for 289 save 100 bucks and just get the [191:20] 2015. you're not living with it you have [191:22] a naturally aspirated motor it's a worse [191:24] car but you know it's a hundred dollars [191:26] a day yeah [191:28] uh you're probably not gonna be able to [191:29] tell i mean you'll be able to tell a [191:31] difference but [191:32] if you don't drive both you don't know [191:34] what you're missing [191:35] um [191:37] scooby roo can you get off the technical [191:40] talks and hit me with some quick [191:42] hot quirks and features already [191:45] man i'm sorry uh senior knit oh and [191:48] thank you for the donation by the way [191:49] scooby-roo are you looking up the [191:51] technical failures [191:53] yeah [191:53] um [191:55] i'm gonna do like five more questions [191:57] because [191:58] it's like related to blown head gaskets [192:00] and stuff that that's something that we [192:01] would have to ask mazda honestly like [192:03] i'm sure they would tell us like how [192:05] about we bring that up in our cx-50 [192:07] video when we do it yeah yeah we'll talk [192:09] to mazda about it and see how big of an [192:10] issue is because sometimes online [192:12] like you get a mixed bag of like people [192:15] making it into the end of the world um [192:17] and then it obviously is a real issue we [192:19] just don't know how many units it [192:20] affects [192:21] senior nips [192:22] uh for twenty dollars 2023 nissan z or [192:25] manual supra [192:27] we do a comparison test in a couple [192:29] weeks so yeah yeah well for sure we'll [192:32] answer that question then because i [192:33] haven't driven them both back-to-back [192:34] uh ha feed for 20. on the 23 c43 amg [192:38] launch german host asked the engineer [192:40] why they're doing so many screens [192:42] piano black caps buttons if there was [192:45] if it was for the cost savings they said [192:47] no it actually costs more [192:49] and so he then asked why do it he didn't [192:52] get an answer [192:53] i've been told from suppliers it costs [192:55] less to do touch screens well not [192:58] touchscreens haptics because you're [193:00] releasing [193:01] removing the physical buttons and [193:03] controls which are more expensive to [193:04] manufacture than just a single like [193:07] touch membrane and a plane that has [193:09] nothing really mechanical to it paul [193:11] thank you for the 10 dollars jesse's [193:12] asking uh because of our blackwing ct4 [193:15] video he bought one what's a good track [193:18] day tire for one [193:19] uh rs4s rival s's [193:22] and then the neat uh the yokohama well [193:25] that's hardcore the falcon is a good one [193:27] yeah the falcon is a good one though the [193:29] 6556 is it 660 666 yeah those are like [193:32] as you get into the 200 tread wear tires [193:34] it gets a lot more hardcore so just be [193:36] aware like if you're if you want [193:38] something that wears like steel like [193:39] jack says the rs4s are like incredible [193:42] for that they're just not the super [193:43] sticky tire but they last a long time [193:46] uh [193:47] we're almost done actually uh [193:48] [Music] [193:51] uh landlubber for ten dollars who wins [193:53] in a fight a duck sized m1 abrams or a [193:56] tank sized toyota echo [193:58] tank says toyota eco because the gauge [194:00] cluster [194:01] that that could that could take out a [194:03] because you have more visibility because [194:05] the gauge cluster is right in the center [194:07] so you could you could beat an m1 abrams [194:10] that's duck sized yeah because you they [194:12] will never be able to get you [194:13] [Laughter] [194:15] uh chris jones thank you for the 20 [194:18] donation [194:19] uh get like five

me off and [195:05] like there's there's just [195:07] there's less of blatant garbage and like [195:09] i think the eqs is about as animated as [195:12] i'll get like that is that really this [195:14] is trash yeah you know i mean like that [195:17] that's type of stuff but it's rare that [195:18] there's anything that's so bad that [195:20] you're like what the hell is going on [195:22] here and if i feel like people are [195:24] really getting ripped off that triggers [195:25] me more than anything crackdog 69 thank [195:27] you for the five dollars [195:29] kg have a 2005 330 zhp i'm ready to take [195:34] a lashing for being a bmw nerd but i'm [195:36] glad [195:37] i have it as a throwback to when daily [195:39] drivers are also fun will fun dailies [195:41] come back before ice dies in your [195:43] opinions [195:45] uh [195:45] for some brands yeah for others now i [195:47] think some of it's like the the dying [195:49] breath for certain of these brands the [195:50] launch runs a good daily driver [195:53] well i mean basically our whole daily [195:54] driver comparison test video the [195:56] subcompacts all those cars are kind of [195:57] fun well n is going electric that's the [196:00] so they've already said that they're [196:01] going electric so yes the laundry on is [196:03] the last so every brand is going to kind [196:05] of have their their like see you later [196:07] before we move on to something else the [196:09] bigger brands that can get away with it [196:11] from regulation standpoint they'll [196:12] probably continue some of the stuff but [196:14] yeah i mean we're at the end of it [196:16] unless something changes like globally [196:18] changes with regulations matt hayes just [196:20] asked first mod for a stock 2013 frs [196:23] under 1500 other than exhaust brake pads [196:25] and fluid [196:27] tires and alignment he already said [196:28] tires so then alignment capability [196:30] camber plates yeah yeah stuff to get if [196:32] you can get more camber in the front of [196:33] that car like two and a half degrees [196:35] it's going to make that car so much [196:36] better [196:37] a scooby roof for five dollars what did [196:40] you feel during alicia's alicia keys [196:43] song for the eqs i you know i watched [196:45] that so many times in editing and i [196:46] wanted to put in more because it was so [196:48] horrible i wanted to torture people with [196:49] it that's when you get to a level of [196:52] marketing and that's why i hate some of [196:53] the eqs stuff you get to the level of [196:56] utter contempt and disregard and [196:58] disconnect between the real world and [197:00] marketing and that's what that [197:02] car was it was like catering having [197:04] celebrities in it to market a car that [197:07] made no connection to the real world [197:09] it's nauseating and that alicia keys [197:11] thing is like that that she's pretty [197:13] smart that girl she's talented in terms [197:15] of music and all that stuff and she says [197:17] she's an activist that makes no sense of [197:20] like a brand integration for me and that [197:22] song though i hopefully everybody listen
