[0:03] Jack we're live so we are live it has
[0:07] been several months since the last time
[0:09] we did this so hopefully you are ready
[0:11] for a several hour live stream where we
[0:13] do our best to answer all of your
[0:16] questions and a gentleman named Zach
[0:17] Peterson has already jumped the gun but
[0:20] before we answer his questions and many
[0:23] more we should talk about oh I don't
[0:25] know why are we talking about anything
[0:26] we should be saying hello to people and
[0:28] making sure that they can hear us first
[0:30] right that is a good call
[0:32] can you guys hear us
[0:39] oh and we have a lovely moderator named
[0:42] chin face who is helping us out chin
[0:45] face can you message me and let me know
[0:48] if you can hear us
[0:54] about you Mark can they hear you today's
[0:56] sponsor is Kirkland organic fruit and
[0:59] vegetable pouches we're supporting the
[1:01] apple and strawberry spinach uh sector
[1:04] there's a lot of farmers out there that
[1:06] are not getting a lot of money for
[1:07] spinach so if you buy two cans today
[1:10] well actually at Kirkland or Costco you
[1:13] can only buy 700 cans when you eat all
[1:15] that spinach I'm gonna donate point zero
[1:18] zero zero seven cents to Jack's favorite
[1:21] charity his Corvette fund oh perfect for
[1:24] new tires he'll get a new set of tires
[1:26] in about 20 years for that thing okay so
[1:30] it sounds like most of you can hear us
[1:34] loud and clear chin I am waiting oh yes
[1:38] I had I do have a fifth grader lunch by
[1:41] the way somebody said that looks like
[1:42] I'm eating like a fifth grader uh you
[1:44] absolutely do my mom made me this
[1:46] beforehand I I got out of the basement
[1:48] today just for about five minutes to do
[1:50] this I had to sweep the chimney first
[1:52] and get get her uh old rugs cleaned so
[1:55] I've just spent 12 hours of this [ __ ]
[1:58] driving back and forth from Detroit all
[2:00] this guy wanted to do every couple hours
[2:02] with poor chin face in the car was stop
[2:04] and get Scoops he's like Jack I can't
[2:06] believe you made me drive all this way
[2:07] can we get Scoops that was with three
[2:10] days in a row literally this man eats
[2:13] this guy he's a small child well I
[2:16] didn't want to go because I had so much
[2:18] stuff to do and Jack's Jack pulled out
[2:20] every stop like every time I said no
[2:23] he's like oh but I did this and this I'm
[2:25] like yeah but I can't do this and then
[2:27] it's like oh I did did this and this I'm
[2:29] like no I still got to do this and then
[2:31] he's like I I made the Sun the moon and
[2:34] stars revolve around you and I couldn't
[2:36] say no and then I wound up going and
[2:38] then every
[2:40] ounce of energy you stole out of me I
[2:42] had to replenish it back with a hot
[2:43] fudge sundae a strawberry shake uh and
[2:47] I'm not supposed to eat dairy so it was
[2:49] I would I could literally feel the water
[2:51] pressure in my hotel from four floors
[2:53] down change yeah the guy I I woke up at
[2:57] three in the morning and uh I had some
[3:00] stomach problems and the guy next door I
[3:03] could hear in the hotel room he's like
[3:04] oh my God what is that smell well
[3:10] anyway so that's uh we're just warming
[3:13] up here so that's that's what's been
[3:15] going on with us let's get some other
[3:16] housekeeping done we have done many
[3:18] projects we have a Integra Type S
[3:22] docufilm potentially coming out on
[3:24] Monday by some luck luckiness maybe Mark
[3:27] and edit all together tomorrow he's been
[3:29] working on it for the last week we got
[3:31] back from Japan a couple weeks ago where
[3:33] we finally more or less wrapped up the
[3:36] shooting element of our NSX docufilm so
[3:39] many of you guys have been waiting on
[3:42] that video and it will take about five
[3:44] years to edit together five hours of
[3:46] people speaking Japanese and mind you we
[3:48] don't speak Japanese so it's gonna have
[3:50] to get translated out and then subtitled
[3:53] and all that other fun stuff so that'll
[3:54] be
[3:56] um interesting oh it's going to be
[3:58] interesting I'm going to lock the door
[3:59] just in case my mom brings me oh dessert
[4:01] perfect you can't let her do that and
[4:02] she's gonna bring you a bucket as well
[4:03] yeah she's gonna bring me a diaper and a
[4:06] banana split what else have we done we
[4:08] we finally did our Z06 GT3 film we did
[4:12] the five-way comparison with Carlos laga
[4:14] which was uh hopefully you guys have
[4:16] seen that video it's right up your alley
[4:17] it's got all the hot hatches that are
[4:20] not all four cylinders despite what I
[4:22] say in the intro yeah this guy said the
[4:24] wrong thing like three times or four
[4:25] times in the video cylinders and then he
[4:28] actually did call him five cylinders I
[4:30] don't know where that came from he's
[4:32] just confused yeah I I have to add
[4:35] cylinders like I add inches in height
[4:37] well let me put this banner up here just
[4:39] so
[4:42] uh speaking of testosterone we are
[4:44] planning on shooting a e-ray video like
[4:47] we did for the original Z06 film and our
[4:49] M2 M2 Supra video
[4:52] uh is out and we've been working on a
[4:55] dark horse docufilm as well so we have
[4:57] quite a few projects in the background
[4:59] for you guys and we're about to do our
[5:01] first ever uh Lamborghini film we have
[5:04] an sto that's being shipped out to us
[5:06] and Lamborghini is going to have us do
[5:07] an engineering piece on that video kind
[5:09] of celebrating the end we're not
[5:10] celebrating sort of bemoaning the end of
[5:12] the V10
[5:14] and sort of talking about their future
[5:16] products for the three people on planet
[5:18] Earth who can actually afford a
[5:20] Lamborghini but how much is that car I
[5:22] think it starts in the low 300s and
[5:24] really the point of it for us is because
[5:27] that's what I'm going to be able to
[5:28] afford oh yeah just you know you're
[5:30] sitting on a gold mine so your organs
[5:31] I'll be closer to being negative 300 000
[5:34] for 300 000. but really I mean you get
[5:37] to see how a Lamborghini is engineered
[5:40] and most of the time in the past no one
[5:42] has talked about the technical
[5:44] attributes of that vehicle is just like
[5:45] look at me and my Instagram models there
[5:48] are you know there's actual engineering
[5:50] already that goes into those cars and
[5:52] it's sad that no one talks about it so
[5:53] hopefully we get to talk about a little
[5:55] bit of it yeah so it's the hardcore
[5:57] viewers that are appreciated I think
[5:58] that's that's what it'll come off as I
[6:00] have my severe doubts that anybody's
[6:04] really gonna watch that video just
[6:05] because I do feel like that space has
[6:07] been dominated by a whole different
[6:09] subset of Internet creators uh who do
[6:13] mostly street racing and whatever what
[6:16] else do internet creators do with
[6:18] Lamborghinis Jack crash them jump them
[6:20] over things because of one guy who jumps
[6:21] them all that's cool yeah it should be
[6:25] yeah we I don't know as we as we sort of
[6:29] see what we can accomplish while we have
[6:31] good weather hopefully these will become
[6:33] some unique and interesting projects
[6:35] things we finished what else did we do
[6:37] Mark let's talk about let's let's talk
[6:39] about the big ones right I mean I know
[6:40] you brought it up already
[6:42] um before we get into this question and
[6:45] answer Zone that goes on for quite a
[6:46] while
[6:47] um
[6:48] the Integra video also has some special
[6:53] stuff in it which I guess it is pretty
[6:56] cool we got to film them get built uh we
[6:59] shut down a track Audubon Country Club
[7:00] continues to be a valuable asset for us
[7:02] so we we put them out on track and we
[7:05] downloaded as well so I'm pretty sure
[7:06] we're the only Outlet to track or dyno
[7:09] and so yeah this this one's interesting
[7:10] because yeah we did the we did the
[7:12] factory again so we to your point the
[7:15] track part but that's also it's got some
[7:16] really interesting data in there about
[7:18] what's different about the car like real
[7:21] data to show like how it's different
[7:23] um the dyno numbers are clearly
[7:25] interesting and then of course uh the
[7:27] other part is we did audio testing on it
[7:29] we did decibel testing on the interior
[7:31] to see like is it actually quieter so
[7:34] there's a lot of stuff in there along
[7:35] with trying to talk to Acura about what
[7:37] they were trying to do with the car uh
[7:39] for real like what they were trying to
[7:40] do and I think they did a great
[7:41] explanation of what it is and what it's
[7:43] not
[7:44] um I'm excited about because it's really
[7:46] it's what I set out to do when we start
[7:48] when I started this I wanted to take a
[7:51] new car have manufacturers help us
[7:53] explain what they're doing so we then
[7:55] can learn about it and then explain it
[7:58] back without being marketing and that's
[8:00] what I really love and I love to see the
[8:02] start to finish the manufacturing the
[8:03] assembly process I mean it's just so
[8:05] cool and then to be able to have the
[8:08] skill set now to understand what the
[8:10] hell is going on behind the scenes
[8:11] mechanically with the car and to get
[8:13] into all those details it's just it's so
[8:15] much fun it's just there's never enough
[8:16] time to do this stuff it's that's the
[8:19] biggest problem there you can't just
[8:20] spend endless times on time on this one
[8:22] thing but I'm really looking forward to
[8:25] that one and I know the Japan trip you
[8:26] mentioned that
[8:28] um do you want to talk a little bit more
[8:29] about that Jack because that's that's
[8:31] kind of a big deal too so the NSX
[8:34] project something we've teased for
[8:35] almost a year at this point those who
[8:37] have been following the channel or any
[8:39] of our Instagram accounts we started
[8:41] this project nine months ago Acura was
[8:44] kind enough to ship us a gen 1 and a sax
[8:49] and a NSX Type S as they were killing
[8:51] off the car
[8:52] and initially uh this is something that
[8:54] we'd pitched several times in the past
[8:56] and after just a lot of going back and
[8:57] forth with them and trying to figure out
[8:59] how to make a project work for both of
[9:01] us they finally agreed to it and then we
[9:03] got some of the American side of Honda
[9:06] involved in the MSX project we had John
[9:08] Ikeda John Rivers he did product
[9:10] planning he's also an Integrity type
[9:12] best video Peter Cunningham the only
[9:13] American to race one in Era on a factory
[9:16] supported team John vasos who is a
[9:20] mechanic who built a shop and basically
[9:21] dedicated his life to these cars but
[9:23] after interviewing all these people
[9:24] getting the cars we realized pretty
[9:27] quickly that this is a Japanese story
[9:29] not an American story well we appreciate
[9:31] the car and what it has to offer all
[9:34] these guys who worked on it none of them
[9:36] were here right all we did was resell
[9:37] them in this market and race them yeah
[9:39] so after going back and forth with Japan
[9:42] and Honda North America and realizing
[9:44] that some of the people working on this
[9:45] are quite elderly
[9:47] you know sort of a Time imperative as
[9:49] well you know you want to be able to
[9:51] tell the story from these people's
[9:52] mouths before they're either too old or
[9:55] physically unable to tell the story so
[9:57] after going back and forth for eight
[9:59] months we finally got all the key team
[10:02] members involved uhara-san the chief
[10:05] engineer we put him on camera he
[10:06] answered our questions uh who made a son
[10:09] who kind of organized this all from the
[10:11] Japanese PR side of things uh
[10:13] tsukumotasan watasan a couple other
[10:16] gentlemen everyone from the aluminum
[10:18] Body Works to the chassis Engineers who
[10:20] worked on every iteration of the NSX
[10:22] including the type RS are all on camera
[10:25] for us to interview and tell the story
[10:27] we got to go to the Honda Museum where
[10:29] they gave us free access
[10:31] yeah we I mean I got to climb around
[10:33] Earth and Santa's McLaren which sure it
[10:36] has nothing to do with the NSA story but
[10:38] arathon does have something to do with
[10:40] the NSX story so we we've really tried
[10:42] to put something together that you know
[10:44] after you and I are no longer doing this
[10:45] and God knows how many years someone can
[10:47] go back and watch what we're hoping is
[10:49] going to be the definitive NSX video if
[10:51] you want to learn about what the car is
[10:54] today and from the people who designed
[10:55] it almost 30 years later yeah it's uh
[10:58] this was again like when we talk about
[11:00] or you know we start talking about the
[11:02] things that you want to accomplish doing
[11:03] this and obviously this is quite
[11:05] self-serious right now I apologize that
[11:07] there's not a lot of comedy in this
[11:09] story but the
[11:11] when we started doing it I'm like I want
[11:14] to do an NSX video because people are
[11:16] like okay you've done these other ones
[11:17] why don't you do this and it was strange
[11:19] to get to a place where you realize
[11:21] there is no story without the real
[11:23] people that did it did the work because
[11:24] this is what happens all the time you
[11:26] never really talk to the people that did
[11:28] the physical work and all the hard work
[11:29] on the back end and I'm like I couldn't
[11:31] I didn't want to finish the video unless
[11:33] I had that part and the naivety of doing
[11:36] it this way of not really understanding
[11:39] what that meant was the only reason we
[11:41] got to this point because if I would
[11:42] have known what in all of this how it
[11:44] would have played out in the amount of
[11:45] time that it's taken I would have
[11:47] probably never done it but to be able to
[11:49] have had them be on camera like you
[11:52] mentioned and to be able to tell their
[11:54] story granted it's all in Japanese so
[11:55] there's a huge language barrier and
[11:57] translation issue that's going to have
[11:59] to go into to making it work you know
[12:00] you have four hours of interviews that
[12:04] are all in Japanese and I don't speak
[12:06] Japanese I can barely speak three words
[12:08] because I'm American and uh we only know
[12:11] English but to have that translated back
[12:14] for a video that's cohesive for a viewer
[12:16] to understand and then getting all the
[12:18] technical stuff that we didn't know
[12:19] existed that was the best part
[12:21] uh UE horoson wrote a book that he spent
[12:24] 20 years writing about the technical
[12:26] stuff with S2000 and the NSX that really
[12:29] nobody knew about even the closest
[12:31] people to him so we find this out when
[12:33] it's there it's all in Japanese we have
[12:35] him sign the book and then later we're
[12:37] like hey did you write this thing yeah
[12:38] we had him sign a book and he like I had
[12:40] no idea this book was even his so that
[12:43] that's really what we walked into and in
[12:45] some of it's Japanese culture right
[12:46] they're not self-congratulatory they're
[12:49] not people that will unlike you yeah I'm
[12:52] always out my front yard with my shirt
[12:54] off like just just flexing at everybody
[12:56] that walks by but that that's that's
[12:58] exactly it we didn't know what we were
[13:00] walking into and I don't think that they
[13:01] particularly knew what we were walking
[13:03] into and it's just it's crazy how it's
[13:05] all turned out and if I get through this
[13:07] and the video ends up being good I will
[13:09] be very very happy it's one of those
[13:11] things
[13:12] um you can retire your jersey finally
[13:14] yeah I can hang up my my number zero
[13:17] jersey for zero wins up in the rafters
[13:19] and it'll get uh bird crap on it but
[13:22] yeah I was I'm really I hope this turns
[13:24] out well and it's one of the things I'll
[13:26] look back on and if I could accomplish
[13:28] this I did what I set out to do when I
[13:30] started this and there's I mean there's
[13:32] all other things to do clearly but that
[13:34] was one of the things for me that was
[13:35] super important I think really the next
[13:37] step for us is to be a part of a
[13:39] development process for your car earlier
[13:41] on and get to show people in a
[13:44] non-marketing BS way how something is
[13:46] developed the trials and tribulations
[13:48] from an oem because something that a lot
[13:51] of the engineers tell us all the time is
[13:53] that there's a huge disconnect from
[13:54] people who love cars and people who
[13:56] design cars and a lot of people who are
[13:59] fanboys of cars or like certain models
[14:01] don't fully appreciate how goddamn long
[14:04] it takes to engineer a product I mean we
[14:07] we sort of touched on it in our C8 video
[14:09] and we've touched on it now in our
[14:12] upcoming Mustang video but it takes
[14:14] years of unbelievable amount of hours to
[14:18] put something together it's not only
[14:19] just designing the cards going back and
[14:21] forth with you know thousands of people
[14:24] on a team suppliers the government
[14:26] manufacturing not only you have to
[14:28] design something you have to be able to
[14:29] build it and you have to deal with the
[14:31] unions who build these cars and training
[14:33] you know hourly employees to assemble
[14:36] these things I mean it is vastly
[14:38] complicated and I don't think people
[14:39] fully appreciate it and how would they
[14:42] without doing it themselves or at least
[14:43] being able to visualize it and see it
[14:45] for themselves let's be honest I don't
[14:46] think I appreciated it until this last
[14:49] year to be honest getting inside and
[14:52] talking to some of the people that are
[14:54] actually doing the work and then seeing
[14:56] the difficulties of their job even you
[14:58] know off the Record stuff you hear
[15:00] stories from the people that are leading
[15:02] projects and just it's their corporate
[15:04] jobs right like you're one person in a
[15:07] large team and the bigger than
[15:08] organization the more red tape and when
[15:10] you get these bigger vehicles that
[15:12] management and then upper management has
[15:14] to have their fingerprint on everything
[15:16] and then the budgets right like the
[15:19] budget part is is hilarious to me when
[15:21] we've seen cars where there was no
[15:23] budget like the Z06 had almost no budget
[15:26] like they just had a a blank check and
[15:28] that's why the guys are so excited like
[15:30] what you saw and you said like look at
[15:32] no budget is they had no money they had
[15:33] unlimited no yeah that's what yeah
[15:35] that's what I mean like a blank check so
[15:37] they could do whatever they want and
[15:37] that's why when you saw the engineers on
[15:39] camera they're like they're they're
[15:41] oozing everything they wanted to do they
[15:44] finally didn't have somebody breathing
[15:46] down their neck they got off the leash
[15:47] and then you you see other projects
[15:49] where you're like well why is this so
[15:52] it's because we had five dollars yeah
[15:55] like we literally had to pull it out of
[15:56] here to put a big screen in the car and
[15:58] that was the priority and that took most
[15:59] of the development budget for this part
[16:01] and it's seeing this on the back end and
[16:04] understanding where the money is going
[16:06] um you know in in in seeing like
[16:09] production numbers two was another
[16:10] interesting part of the Enthusiast cars
[16:12] like I was editing the Integra video
[16:14] today and I was going through all the
[16:16] Japan Chinese stuff because there's more
[16:18] St obviously on a Japanese car
[16:21] you would think we would have all the
[16:22] information but we never do but the
[16:24] Japanese clearly said for fl5 Type R
[16:27] their goal is to make no more than 400 a
[16:29] month period that was their production
[16:31] limit was 400 a month and nobody really
[16:33] ever talked about that but then you see
[16:36] that and you go to some of these other
[16:37] esoteric cars or like specialty cars
[16:39] it's the same thing for GR Corolla they
[16:41] have a hard cap they don't even care if
[16:42] they make more than that it's not about
[16:44] building a lot so it's funny that we see
[16:46] it on expensive cars that have become so
[16:48] limited or serialized and now we're
[16:50] seeing it on the budget like cars that
[16:53] in my mind I'm still not wrapping my
[16:55] head around like how the hell is like an
[16:57] Integra like a specialty car now or a
[16:59] Civic or you know like a Mustang even
[17:03] um it's it's really strange place to be
[17:05] in the automotive world and somebody I
[17:06] saw a comment here does Mark even love
[17:08] cars anymore like cars anymore and I'm
[17:10] like I do my perspective is just
[17:13] completely shifted on them though it's
[17:15] not like how it used to be for me oh so
[17:16] Jacob and Yuri the straight pipe says
[17:18] well I talk about my Corvette and of
[17:20] course 24 seven yeah I'm surprised uh
[17:23] actually let me hear uh Jacob can you
[17:25] talk about your Z06 too and your your
[17:27] Fox body should you do that all right we
[17:29] put the banner up go ahead all right
[17:31] well you know why don't you put your
[17:32] update about your Corvette so we can get
[17:34] it out of the way you know it's it's
[17:35] never seen rain I only take it to
[17:37] nursing homes and I win and I get to
[17:39] yell at Applebee's waitresses when I
[17:41] pull my Z06 and I demand that they valet
[17:43] park my car can you fit a lawn chair in
[17:46] that thing uh yeah of course dude I I
[17:48] can either fit my T-top or my lawn chair
[17:50] in the truck what about both
[17:52] I can't well you know
[17:54] I I pull a Corvette trailer with my ZO6
[17:57] oh really yeah it's just incredible so
[18:00] why don't you tell them about the real
[18:01] story about your ZO6 because you had
[18:02] some drama with that recently yes so
[18:05] um in a moment of seriousness the the
[18:07] problem with Corvettes is anyone who
[18:10] owns a GM product knows is that GM
[18:13] dealers are not always the most capable
[18:15] and servicing said uh uh GM product as
[18:19] you've probably seen on other uh from
[18:21] other YouTubers who've owned z06s or own
[18:24] them a lot of dealers can't deal with
[18:26] their wheels and tires so that's
[18:27] exciting took almost uh two maybe three
[18:31] weeks to get one tire changed after one
[18:33] wheel was destroyed by a dealer who
[18:34] tried changing the tires so
[18:36] you know it's uh it's exciting times so
[18:39] what you are not getting when you pay
[18:41] six figures for a Corvette is a
[18:43] six-figure dealer experience that said
[18:45] the service people are nice they're just
[18:47] not used to necessarily dealing with
[18:49] esoteric sports cars and I don't
[18:51] entirely blame them they deal with
[18:52] trucks and equinoxes all day and you
[18:55] have some tech who doesn't get paid a
[18:56] lot of money and some [ __ ] shows up
[18:58] with a six-figure cars like fix it
[18:59] they'll be like go [ __ ] yourself but
[19:01] we're not talking about fixing it we're
[19:02] talking about changing a tire yes fair
[19:04] point so they couldn't change your tire
[19:06] and then they damaged the wheel trying
[19:08] to change the tire then they sent you
[19:09] away like yeah
[19:11] oh we couldn't do it and then in the end
[19:13] they they replace the tire and the wheel
[19:15] and another AFA helped Mount the tire
[19:18] for them which was was exciting yeah and
[19:21] like why don't you talk about AFA real
[19:23] quick so if you do live in Illinois and
[19:25] for the three people who who uh live
[19:27] there because I think there's a lot
[19:29] about okay yeah
[19:31] um if you live in the northwest suburbs
[19:33] and you need tires mounted or weird like
[19:35] it's called performance work done or
[19:37] service work done AFA performance in
[19:39] Downers Grove has been our go-to shop
[19:40] they've helped with a lot of the
[19:42] five-way or basically any of the
[19:44] comparison tests we've done they'll
[19:45] mount the tires they do brake pads for
[19:47] us when we don't have time to do it
[19:48] ourselves or we're feeling too lazy
[19:49] great job to work with it's a huge shout
[19:51] out to them yeah definitely it's it's
[19:53] one of those when you have cars and you
[19:54] don't have time to work on them it's
[19:56] like a load off when you have a place
[19:57] this is not sponsored but this is
[19:59] nothing it's not even really a plug I
[20:01] just wanted to bring it up since you
[20:02] talked about the tire stuff because
[20:03] they've really gone and bend over
[20:05] backwards because they love cars it's a
[20:07] shop that actually the guys that do it
[20:09] like cars they don't open until they
[20:10] work their regular jobs they're I.T guys
[20:12] then at 5 PM when they get off work
[20:14] they're like you know what I want to do
[20:15] with my evening I want to go work on
[20:16] some junks yeah so they open up their
[20:18] shop at like five or six pm and they
[20:20] work till like midnight they go to work
[20:21] the next day and restart it's crazy but
[20:23] to be fair it's it's Enthusiast cars
[20:25] mostly right they're not like I will do
[20:27] anything oh they will do anything we'll
[20:29] do anything I just feel like I always
[20:30] see like BMWs and gr86s and all that
[20:34] stuff there it's the I that's what their
[20:36] specialty is and they're primarily a
[20:37] referral shop okay oh cool anyway
[20:40] um what else to talk about five
[20:42] comparison Carlos we you got to cross uh
[20:45] another one off the list yeah we got to
[20:47] work with Carlos Lago who's every bit is
[20:50] amazing in person as he is on camera
[20:52] he's such a nice dude yeah that was one
[20:54] I know a lot of people if you're a
[20:56] little bit older you know I'm like now
[20:58] that I hit 27 I just had my 27th
[21:00] birthday and uh
[21:02] you know when I was like four years old
[21:05] I used to watch Motor Trend on YouTube
[21:07] and he was like on there and I always
[21:09] loved his relatableness it what he was
[21:12] never do she he was just really matter
[21:14] of fact and not I don't know not he
[21:18] wasn't abrasive so I loved his approach
[21:19] so it was kind of funny after all of
[21:21] this time from him going to Car and
[21:24] Driver we met him at a press event I
[21:26] don't gr86 it was gr86 okay we met him
[21:29] there and I just it was kind of weird to
[21:31] talk to him and then he realized like
[21:33] he's just a normal guy that likes cars
[21:34] and works in the car industry it's it's
[21:36] it was just as simple as that and I
[21:39] don't know how you could I think you
[21:41] reached out to him for this didn't you
[21:42] yeah one of us did I think yeah I might
[21:44] have and he said absolutely and he the
[21:47] real gentleman drove all the way out
[21:48] here uh was accommodating to our sort of
[21:51] our workflow and he genuinely is a nice
[21:54] nice guy funny and very professional
[21:56] he's the perfect person to bring in for
[21:58] a project he's so charismatic I mean
[22:00] it's hard on video because you know like
[22:02] he didn't do any of the film work and
[22:04] stuff he just was like the personality
[22:05] on there but I I feel bad that it wasn't
[22:08] as you know I don't know it was a good
[22:11] video to put him in honestly he was he
[22:12] was not just a cameo or like that was my
[22:15] goal with that is not just to make him a
[22:17] third wheel or a fifth wheel
[22:19] um to actually have him a part of it and
[22:21] I know it's weird just throwing him in
[22:23] but I felt like it worked pretty well
[22:25] for her first time doing it and that
[22:27] would be my idea of people like oh why
[22:28] don't you collaborate and collaborations
[22:29] are hard because to get somebody that's
[22:32] on the outside in and namely like car
[22:34] and driver right that's like a very very
[22:37] structured old school even though
[22:40] they're trying to change a lot of that
[22:41] you still have to bring that brand in
[22:43] and be safe to the brand and accessible
[22:45] while still doing your own thing and I
[22:48] felt like that was totally accomplished
[22:49] with that video so I was very happy with
[22:51] it
[22:52] you could always do more it could have
[22:54] been better in other ways but I really
[22:55] enjoyed that one if we had more time I
[22:58] think you know maybe incorporating a
[23:00] street element of it I just felt that
[23:01] using the track
[23:03] allowed us to drive the cars at whatever
[23:05] rate or Pace we wanted to so you could
[23:07] simulate and we did what it was like to
[23:10] putt the thing around right and no
[23:12] traffic on the track and just sort of
[23:13] enjoy the Dynamics of the car and also
[23:15] go flat out and obviously we brought in
[23:16] Brooke Casey who's been working with us
[23:18] now for a couple years super good guy
[23:20] racing instructor there former pro
[23:22] driver and he said all the laps and
[23:24] honestly that was getting him in and out
[23:27] of every one of the cars after he set
[23:29] his four or five laps and got us flyer
[23:31] than remounting the camera here in each
[23:33] one of the cars it took a lot of time
[23:34] but the dude never complains and he
[23:36] works really hard and he's as articulate
[23:39] as he can be he doesn't do this for a
[23:40] living right but he can speak to the
[23:42] nuances of you know what a race car
[23:45] driver is looking for in a vehicle like
[23:46] that
[23:47] um hopefully you guys enjoyed the video
[23:49] because that was really for you guys as
[23:50] much as it was for and on the back end
[23:52] I'm just I I just want to cover this
[23:54] real briefly for people that are
[23:55] watching you know
[23:57] um part people are like obviously I'm
[23:59] starting to seriously my battery is
[24:02] really low with this I'm like I'm
[24:04] questioning a lot of this and some of it
[24:06] is because to do what you want to do
[24:09] like what I want to do that comparison's
[24:12] a perfect example Jack is like always
[24:14] like shooting much higher and that's
[24:17] that's really how A lot of this happens
[24:18] when you shoot higher and you push the
[24:20] boundaries you do better stuff but at
[24:21] the same time it's like we've hit a wall
[24:24] or I have personally hit a wall where
[24:26] you're throwing five cars at me you know
[24:29] five cars with two people to film this
[24:32] entire thing it's incredible that it
[24:33] even got done and Chris Andrew Chin base
[24:36] he does help logistically and and I got
[24:38] to get him more involved with other
[24:39] stuff too but you know essentially two
[24:42] people doing the technical work and me
[24:43] doing all the editing I sat down and
[24:45] edited and I told Jack I'm like it took
[24:46] me five days literally five days
[24:48] straight because it's five Cars Plus lap
[24:51] times plus all this other [ __ ] plus
[24:52] trying to make Carlos look good and like
[24:54] you know make sure he's happy and he
[24:56] already looks good yeah it physically
[24:58] looks good that's not an issue but you
[25:00] know that it it it's not representing
[25:02] bad but it's so much work it's not does
[25:04] this what we're trying to do is not
[25:06] designed for two people it's not and
[25:07] we've been forcing this and then the
[25:09] worst part is there is not the return
[25:12] that there was on this the the costs are
[25:15] really high the time is really high and
[25:16] you know like from the business end
[25:18] right like anybody that's done this and
[25:20] I'm starting to really realize this it's
[25:22] hard for Jack because he's like let's
[25:24] get this thing let's get let's get in
[25:26] he's great at it and then I have to do
[25:28] the work on the back end I'm sitting
[25:30] here thinking I'm like okay I spent 80
[25:32] hours in a week editing this and then we
[25:35] probably spent me you and Chris
[25:37] uh what 50 hours and shooting it and
[25:40] then all the planning that was done
[25:42] probably another 20 hours so you're
[25:43] literally blowing three weeks of time
[25:46] and overhead uh and Logistics Fuel all
[25:49] that crap to shoot a video that comes
[25:51] out one day disappears has a couple
[25:53] hundred thousand views and maybe makes a
[25:56] couple thousand so the the return is not
[25:59] there when you look at these things like
[26:01] oh it's cool but why didn't you do this
[26:02] I'm like I sit there and think why did I
[26:04] do this you know and there's still
[26:06] somebody's like do you like cars and I
[26:08] love cars I'm just trying to figure out
[26:09] how to survive doing this [ __ ] the way
[26:12] that we want to do it like trying to
[26:13] trying to do more uh instead of just the
[26:17] cardboard stuff because if I'm not if
[26:18] I'm not doing this I really don't want
[26:20] to do it I don't just want to shut stuff
[26:22] out and it's so difficult now but
[26:25] um I'm really really proud of some of
[26:27] these projects that are coming up I
[26:29] think not saying they're going to be
[26:31] great but I'm really proud that we were
[26:33] able to do it with the resources and
[26:35] that the companies the companies
[26:36] honestly he thought that we were worth
[26:38] their time to devote resources and
[26:41] energy and people coming out like the
[26:42] NSX thing these guys came out of
[26:45] retirement to come here and do
[26:46] interviews because it could be the last
[26:48] time they're all together on camera that
[26:50] to me is the Pinnacle of this right like
[26:53] that's the best it gets yeah when the
[26:55] oems themselves are invested in uh the
[27:00] projects you're doing and it's not just
[27:01] some PR person phoning it in because
[27:03] they need to talk about a product when
[27:04] they actually care and hopefully some of
[27:06] these projects we're going to do you get
[27:08] that that vibe from the people involved
[27:10] that they they give a [ __ ] it makes for
[27:12] a much better
[27:14] experience at least putting it together
[27:16] I don't know how it translates to a
[27:17] viewer and then some of the the pain of
[27:20] this is you know I when I when we
[27:22] re-watch the video primarily we're
[27:24] trying to watch the video to make sure
[27:25] there's no [ __ ] errors yeah and it
[27:27] makes sense the enjoyment part doesn't
[27:29] really exist on our own our own end it's
[27:31] like
[27:32] I don't really watch car videos outside
[27:34] of a couple Outlets more because they're
[27:36] my friends in real life yeah because I'm
[27:38] hyper interested now so it you know it's
[27:40] a weird place to be
[27:42] um speaking of projects we bought
[27:45] another long termer the the gr86 was
[27:48] sold as we sort of alluded to a couple
[27:50] months ago and then as a new long-term
[27:54] or a lot of it because what you guys
[27:55] asked us to do and I think the five-way
[27:57] comparison sort of cemented it for me we
[28:00] did the gr Corollas any long term we
[28:02] worked with the same dealer in the same
[28:04] town Toyota St Charles they they only
[28:07] sell the locals and they're a no markup
[28:10] dealer which is great they just don't
[28:11] get a lot of cars because they're a
[28:12] smaller dealer tremendous to work with
[28:14] and the point of us doing the gr Corolla
[28:16] is despite it finishing either fourth or
[28:18] fifth in our you and I yeah fourth or
[28:21] fifth in our comparo test I guess bread
[28:23] too right and Brit
[28:25] um it presents a vehicle that is you
[28:28] know it's great on the street and it's
[28:30] not necessarily great on the track due
[28:32] to cooling issue and some Dynamic
[28:33] problems but it's also one of the more
[28:35] Simple cars on the test so I feel like
[28:37] it's the perfect candidate to see if
[28:39] modifying it with higher end dampers
[28:41] breaks cooling solutions basic alignment
[28:44] pads tires and wheels turns it into the
[28:47] car that all the marketing and the
[28:48] bravado from Toyota said it would be so
[28:51] that's sort of the plan for this video
[28:53] is unlike the gr86 but there really was
[28:55] nothing wrong with that car you just
[28:57] make it faster because you wanted to get
[28:59] more out of it the gr Corolla does have
[29:02] some genuine deficiencies so I feel like
[29:04] this is one of those cars where I'm
[29:06] actually genuinely really curious to see
[29:08] if you can or I can turn it into that
[29:10] car that I wanted it to be because when
[29:13] we went to the launch program we drove
[29:15] it in Utah and it was like 100 degrees
[29:17] out so the car was already you know sort
[29:19] of heat soaked as soon as you got into
[29:21] his already pulling timing so it didn't
[29:22] feel fast and you combine that with a
[29:24] track that then
[29:26] really play to its no it was like fun
[29:30] you know it was like a Miata when you if
[29:31] you have anybody's ever done eye racing
[29:33] and you take the Miata on like Suzuka or
[29:35] something like the cop car miati just
[29:37] sitting there falling asleep and I'm not
[29:39] saying you're falling asleep driving the
[29:40] Jerry Corolla but you could literally be
[29:42] foot to the floor on the entire track
[29:44] there's no oversteer there's understeer
[29:46] you can't get it to rotate no matter
[29:48] what you do and if you really want to
[29:50] try to Chuck it into a corner it just is
[29:51] like it's so safe feeling that there's
[29:54] something no Edge yeah there's no Edge
[29:55] to it and that's not what we went in
[29:57] expecting so when we did our comparison
[29:59] test I think there and you saw this on
[30:01] the forums people were a little bit
[30:02] upset that we like the lap time was like
[30:06] at the top but how is it possible that
[30:08] the car was the worst and I think it was
[30:10] a combination of factors that even
[30:12] though the lap time was quick it wasn't
[30:14] particularly that engaging to drive it
[30:16] didn't feel like there was nothing going
[30:19] on and we don't need the gr Corolla to
[30:20] be fast we need it to feel fun to drive
[30:23] and it just wasn't as fun as the other
[30:25] cars and then on top of it the interior
[30:26] not as good it's still expensive and
[30:29] then to have Brit go out for what is
[30:31] essentially three laps to come back
[30:32] where it just goes into front wheel
[30:33] drive mode only not saying not saying
[30:37] that that can't be fixed but from the
[30:40] dealership and buying a new car it's
[30:42] kind of a it's a big disappointment it
[30:44] is a big disappointment so Carlos's
[30:46] point was the jira Corolla is best
[30:48] bought As A Streetcar that you're
[30:50] driving in all seasons putting snow
[30:52] tires on it you can have fun in the
[30:53] winter it's got a manual parking brake
[30:54] you can do all the things that you want
[30:56] as an all-wheel drive car and to me
[30:59] that's going to be the Redemption when
[31:00] Jack told me he was getting a gr curl
[31:02] I'm like why don't why are you doing
[31:05] this it's like you know we don't even
[31:07] really like the car but at the same time
[31:09] we've only driven it in conditions where
[31:11] the best parts of it potentially are not
[31:14] coming out so as Jack drives it and we
[31:16] get it in inclement weather wet in the
[31:18] winter especially the winter in the
[31:20] midwest this might go from like okay
[31:22] it's kind of sedate to it could be one
[31:25] of the most fun street cars for the
[31:27] price I don't know we'll find out but
[31:28] that's the whole point of this I guess
[31:30] the only other projects I want to
[31:32] accomplish the Summers I want to do
[31:33] something with some of our other friends
[31:35] out there in the world like the straight
[31:37] pipes either go out to Canada have them
[31:40] out here shoot a project with them do
[31:41] something with Annie the lab and of
[31:43] course see something with everyday
[31:43] driver and some other Mica yeah yeah
[31:46] that's right yeah as well from uh Kelly
[31:48] Blue Book
[31:50] um I think it's time now that we answer
[31:52] some of these lovely people's questions
[31:55] and for those who have have asked
[31:59] these are not shrimp they are lobsters
[32:01] yeah Jack's got lobsters on his shirt
[32:04] um
[32:05] I don't even want to go there Jack all
[32:07] right
[32:08] so the very first question we got asked
[32:10] this was before we even went live was
[32:13] Zach Patterson what are your thoughts on
[32:16] the new Lexus GX specifically in regards
[32:19] to Future reliability of the new
[32:21] powertrain V6 twin turbo
[32:24] thank you by the way thank you very much
[32:26] thank you very much
[32:27] I am going to pull up the comments here
[32:30] so I can see what the hell I can send
[32:32] all my glasses on because I want to be
[32:33] cool I don't want to be uh
[32:35] he's asking about the new GX what do you
[32:37] think go to the starred thing oh yeah
[32:39] where's the star thing above right there
[32:43] oh thanks
[32:46] perfect uh Zach
[32:49] um thank you for the five dollars and uh
[32:52] we had our chance our first experience
[32:54] with the twins turbo V6 was in the LS
[32:58] uh the the Lexus LS and we talked to uh
[33:03] the head mechanic who had been working
[33:06] I don't even know what they call them
[33:08] the he's he just does escalations at
[33:10] this point he'd been a Lexus tech for 20
[33:12] years and he's worked on the five liter
[33:15] the Kick-Ass five leader they have which
[33:17] they never have to work on the v6s all
[33:20] like all that stuff and he said yes the
[33:23] new twin turbo is an absolute pain in
[33:25] the balls to work on compared to the
[33:27] other engines it's far more complicated
[33:28] by Design it's not going to be like the
[33:32] other engines because it's not the other
[33:33] engines it's a Next Generation car much
[33:36] like many brands that have you know
[33:38] turbos and all the other electronics and
[33:41] all the hoses and all the you know the
[33:43] plumbing that the cooling and all the
[33:45] crap that goes along into it and yes
[33:47] it's not it it's probably going to be
[33:49] reliable
[33:51] um and it could be very reliable it's
[33:52] just when it comes time to actually do
[33:54] the work it's going to be a bigger pain
[33:56] Point than the older cars and that's
[33:57] what I'll say I don't think it's going
[33:59] to be that big of a worry and with
[34:01] Toyota as they Mass produce it more and
[34:03] more and send millions of well I don't
[34:06] know it will be in millions of cars
[34:07] probably you'll have the part supply
[34:09] where the the cost of these parts will
[34:11] come down
[34:13] um and it yes it's going to be more
[34:14] labor to work on it but the parts aren't
[34:15] going to be like esoteric and expensive
[34:19] um so that should be the Saving Grace I
[34:21] I think it's going to be just as
[34:22] reliable oh they still have toys QDR
[34:24] yeah exactly or quality durability and
[34:27] reliability well that's what they said
[34:29] their focus is so I mean I don't know
[34:31] we'll see the LX though if the if the
[34:33] g-axis is is substantially cheaper than
[34:35] the LX the and it's a little bit more
[34:38] rugged and definitely more that like
[34:39] luxury off-roader where I know those are
[34:41] the LX is trying to accomplish but in
[34:43] the space the LX exists is so
[34:47] you know it's so underperforming and
[34:51] underwhelming compared to all the other
[34:52] big body gun frame like luxury SUVs
[34:55] someone buying an LX isn't buying an
[34:57] Alex to go off-road like they would
[34:59] maybe in the GX they're buying because
[35:01] they want a pimp SUV and if you want a
[35:03] big pimp SUV you buy an Escalade or some
[35:05] you know some big body on frame
[35:06] monstrosity to be fair the Lexus and
[35:08] Toyota buying public is probably the
[35:10] most unique buyers because they're not
[35:13] buying traditionally for like you're not
[35:16] going to see some guy uh like Greg with
[35:19] his uh Forerunner right like he wants to
[35:22] get another one it's like it doesn't
[35:24] make any logical sense and you say like
[35:26] oh why don't you get an X5 or something
[35:28] like that like that has zero interest
[35:30] you could be better in almost every way
[35:32] but the drivetrain the reliability the
[35:35] crap that's tried and true not crap but
[35:37] the things that are tried and true about
[35:38] Toyota just have a unique customer base
[35:41] they don't value the same thing so I
[35:44] think
[35:45] although the GX and uh the TX and
[35:48] whatever the hell they start naming all
[35:49] these things I think they're still going
[35:50] to have the good Toyota stuff they're
[35:52] just they focus on different things than
[35:54] the other luxury Brands and that's what
[35:55] makes them unique yeah the problem with
[35:57] Toyota's are better for worse is because
[35:59] they are insular and some of their
[36:02] approach they chase what they want to
[36:03] and they're often on paper behind yeah
[36:05] but you know their their buyers really
[36:07] care I want to quickly go back to the
[36:09] five-way comparison because as chin has
[36:11] pointed out a lot of people asked why we
[36:13] didn't include the Focus RS and how it
[36:15] would have done in that test from a lap
[36:18] time perspective I don't have a goddamn
[36:19] clue I don't know I mean it has the it
[36:22] has a huge horsepower advantage or not a
[36:24] horsepower Advantage but it has a lot of
[36:25] power it makes a lot of power it's got a
[36:27] torque vectoring rear diff I I think it
[36:30] would probably be right at the top of
[36:31] the list in terms of drivability fun on
[36:34] the track right like as we know we don't
[36:36] like it as a streetcar for just it's an
[36:38] old car right interior you know the way
[36:40] they tune the suspension it rides the
[36:42] complete ass it rides like ass because
[36:43] it's not it wasn't designed for the you
[36:45] know they didn't redevelop it for the
[36:47] United States
[36:48] designed for a German Market yeah so it
[36:51] just they they didn't redo the
[36:52] calibration they needed to do on the car
[36:54] to make it more friendly for the US
[36:55] which anyway it would have been really
[36:57] good on track why we didn't include it
[36:59] because we didn't have access to one and
[37:01] it was also a much older car and we had
[37:03] a relationship with the viewer with the
[37:06] s209 Tom who's very very kind of giving
[37:09] it to us in the process that that I said
[37:11] to myself like we need a Subaru here
[37:13] because everybody's like why didn't you
[37:14] put the WRX it's a car you can buy now
[37:16] that car is not in that same class it's
[37:19] not it's been softened up it's just a
[37:22] much it competes with the with the
[37:24] previous side yeah it's more of an
[37:26] outside competitor more of a GTI
[37:27] competitor not the not the track Focus
[37:30] car so the s209 like I wanted to put it
[37:32] in there to represent Subaru because I
[37:33] think it's the best car they ever made
[37:34] and the rest is history sorry uh for the
[37:39] Ford Fanatics maybe I'll try to get one
[37:41] during our gr Corolla series to see if
[37:43] it's better or worse well at least we'll
[37:44] lap it maybe maybe just throw it on the
[37:46] lap times try to find a day that's
[37:48] similar in temperature and maybe get it
[37:50] on the same tires for a leaderboard
[37:52] perspective I know it doesn't mean much
[37:53] and I don't care too much about that
[37:55] either but maybe people would like to
[37:57] see it in terms of like okay here's
[37:59] here's our list of stuff yeah I I don't
[38:01] even know what they're like from a used
[38:02] perspective it's just not a car
[38:04] to be entirely honest I've given a lot
[38:06] of thought too I mean I went back and
[38:08] recently when we before we did this Ford
[38:09] thing with the the Dark Horse I I went
[38:12] back and re-watched the Focus RS video
[38:14] because I was curious to see how I did
[38:15] it back in in the day and like what our
[38:17] approach was
[38:19] um and obviously A lot's changed but I
[38:21] think in retrospect like again it's
[38:24] experience and time if I would go back
[38:27] to that car I would judge it far less
[38:28] less harshly than I did during that time
[38:31] period but in that time period I'm
[38:33] thinking to myself I'm like
[38:35] there's other cars there's other cars
[38:37] that are have more thought given to them
[38:39] they could do this better and now we
[38:41] realize like nobody's really done it I
[38:43] bought a Mustang GTA yeah exactly cars
[38:46] were also cheaper then too you know
[38:47] there was a lot more options we wouldn't
[38:49] be having this debate
[38:51] um so anyway it's different time
[38:53] different areas cars next question Pavel
[38:55] Jones thank you for the uh ten dollars I
[38:58] got my fl5 in April congratulations for
[39:00] getting an fl5 and it's been wonderful
[39:02] Mark you are you planning to modify
[39:04] yours like wheel suspension Etc also do
[39:07] you know how long you're planning on
[39:08] keeping your fl5 much love from from
[39:10] Australia thanks Pavel I appreciate that
[39:12] uh yeah and thank you for the ten
[39:15] dollars so when I got the fl5
[39:18] the the short and long of it is I didn't
[39:22] really I wasn't looking forward to
[39:24] getting the car I got an allocation for
[39:26] it and I'm like okay I drove it on track
[39:29] during the Press event I'm like yes okay
[39:31] I'm like this is one time when I'm like
[39:33] okay I really like this car and then
[39:34] when I got it I was like okay I got it
[39:37] in the winter I didn't drive it and I'm
[39:38] like it's set and then when it came out
[39:41] of storage like in whatever March or
[39:43] April I drove it around and I'm like I
[39:46] really like this car more than I'd care
[39:47] to admit I like looking at it I like
[39:50] sitting in it I like driving it as a
[39:52] daily driver is it a rear-wheel drive
[39:54] car no is it ever going to be as fun as
[39:57] some of that no but it doesn't have to
[39:59] be I like that it's a real car so I
[40:01] didn't want to mess with it and
[40:02] unfortunately not unfortunately but we
[40:05] wound up having to use it for two
[40:06] comparison tests I didn't want to use my
[40:08] own car for this stuff because every
[40:10] time we use something like that's why we
[40:13] use press cards because you don't have
[40:14] the stress of it
[40:15] you know I took it out first thing you
[40:18] know I got a stain on the carpet uh I
[40:20] know something else I got a scratch on
[40:22] the steering wheel somehow I don't know
[40:24] how it happened it probably was me
[40:26] um I dropped two wheels off like almost
[40:29] four wheels technically it was four
[40:30] wheels but dropped two wheels off hard
[40:32] when we when I was trying to set a lap
[40:34] time in it when we were doing the
[40:36] Integra stuff and you know I scratched a
[40:39] wheel not the end of the world but this
[40:40] is the stuff you know when you start
[40:41] using these cars for this in mounting
[40:44] cameras I scratch my tint on the
[40:46] passenger window from the magnet mounts
[40:48] like I have like six things wrong with
[40:50] this car now just from using and filming
[40:51] and I'm really really tired of having my
[40:54] own cars getting messed up for the sake
[40:57] of this outside of her camera right
[40:58] outside of our camera cars right like it
[41:00] just I want a car that's not are you
[41:02] planning on modeling yeah I'm rambling
[41:03] uh yes but not a lot I'm gonna do wheels
[41:07] and tires brake pads uh I have Essex who
[41:11] sent me their J hook rotors to replace
[41:12] the original OEM rotor so I don't trust
[41:14] trash those
[41:16] um and I do want to do a custom Olean
[41:20] Stamper for the car to get rid of the
[41:22] Adaptive dampers but other than that I
[41:25] really like the car as is so just Basics
[41:27] like really minor brake modifications
[41:29] again pads is the main thing I don't
[41:30] even need to do the rotors uh Wheels
[41:32] tires and then the dampers which I
[41:34] basically do on all the cars I just
[41:35] don't want to mess with anything I
[41:37] really think the engine's good as is the
[41:38] gearbox is good as is you just have to
[41:40] change oil you know fluid a lot for the
[41:42] manual trans like any Honda just super
[41:45] enjoyable oh and the the pins before I
[41:47] do suspension I'll pull the the pins out
[41:49] of the struts to get more negative
[41:50] camera in the front because it would
[41:51] really help the car even if it's like
[41:53] half a degree but yeah that's it I do
[41:55] I'm not I don't want to get rid of it
[41:57] but the only reason I'm gonna have to
[41:58] get rid of it is if I start going broke
[41:59] like I really that's the only way I'm
[42:01] gonna have to sell it and I'll be really
[42:02] sad to do that the next question we have
[42:05] is from Mr foof82 it's 1978.
[42:09] crossovers are 25 years out suggest me a
[42:13] 5 000 pound eight mile per gallon Coupe
[42:16] for personal luxury I deserve even if
[42:19] it's a personal luxury Coupe in name
[42:20] only props if the engine output is under
[42:23] 30 horsepower per liter Lincoln Mark IV
[42:26] oh dude I was going to give them the
[42:28] 6000 sux
[42:30] the science fiction car well that would
[42:32] work too if if we lived in that yeah but
[42:35] the 6000 su-x wasn't
[42:37] in 1978 oh yeah for a point RoboCop was
[42:39] in the 80s it was like 185. so you're
[42:42] you're 10 years okay so if you're in
[42:44] 1985 6000 sux if you're 1978 Lincoln
[42:48] Mark IV that truck's almost had one
[42:50] right yeah she had one a yellow one with
[42:51] yellow interior it got four miles to the
[42:53] gallon I think it made
[42:56] I think four four yeah and I think it it
[42:59] made holy [ __ ]
[43:01] what the hell do you know what the
[43:02] engine size of that thing was I think
[43:04] that was four was it was it the XM
[43:06] Valdez underneath the hood this is
[43:08] really really funny actually let me look
[43:10] this up uh
[43:15] I got a laptop here I'm gonna go look it
[43:17] up no she got four miles per gallon she
[43:19] had to ever okay guess this engine size
[43:21] of this thing
[43:22] seven liters 7.5 liter of horsepower no
[43:26] no that's the best part ready I gotta
[43:28] find the horsepower I don't wanna I
[43:29] don't wanna underrate it
[43:31] holy [ __ ] come on baby
[43:35] sorry I should know my horsepower five
[43:37] liter V8
[43:38] two valves per cylinder rated at 365
[43:42] horsepower oh it made that much power no
[43:45] that can't be right
[43:48] the 460 carryover for Mark 4 f-197 read
[43:51] it under one a numeric decrease this 212
[43:53] horsepower
[43:58] 50 at 7.5 liters it hits the box for a
[44:02] low displacement versus or high
[44:04] displacement versus Power and then four
[44:05] miles per gallon just you know keep that
[44:08] carb clean man if you want better power
[44:10] all right Mr foof 82 go buy yourself a
[44:12] Lincoln Mark IV what color was your
[44:14] mom's
[44:15] my Grandma had a champagne color one a
[44:19] rose with rose interior my mom had a
[44:21] yellow on yellow
[44:22] um
[44:24] those things is that why you don't like
[44:26] V8s now Mark let me tell you one story
[44:28] about that card all right that's my dad
[44:30] this is like a classic story this is
[44:32] like the best thing that ever happened
[44:33] to my family my grandpa had a stroke
[44:39] no that wasn't the best that's not the
[44:41] best part he had a stroke you know he
[44:43] was he lived a fast life uh and he
[44:46] constantly fought with my grandmother so
[44:48] he had a stroke he just couldn't handle
[44:49] her anymore
[44:51] so she left them
[44:54] after he was debilitated
[44:57] so he got put in a nursing home
[44:59] unfortunately for him and I remember
[45:02] going to visit him and he he recovered
[45:04] but he couldn't he could never really
[45:06] walk again he had a walker unfortunately
[45:07] where does this story get amazing the
[45:09] story with the car it comes in it's
[45:11] pretty cool
[45:12] so he he regained some of his ability to
[45:15] walk but he was you know he was screwed
[45:17] up from it thank God he's cognitive
[45:18] function he could think and every while
[45:20] it didn't it didn't do any damage up top
[45:22] but yeah my mom would pick him up to do
[45:24] some family stuff and she he would get
[45:27] in the front seat and it took forever
[45:28] but the the that wheelchair and a walker
[45:30] could fit inside this Mark for I mean
[45:32] you could fit like three wheelchairs in
[45:34] this thing he sat in the front seat
[45:36] and because he couldn't swallow properly
[45:38] he always had these nasty loogies like
[45:40] he would constantly keep coughing up
[45:42] like a handful of snot and me and my dad
[45:47] are in the back seat and he has one of
[45:49] his coughing fits on the highway he
[45:50] rolls down his window we didn't have air
[45:52] conditioning in the car he rolls down
[45:54] the front window and he's coughing and
[45:57] he caused this huge loogie out and my
[45:58] dad was sitting by the the back window
[46:00] and the loogie flies out my dad's like
[46:02] desperately trying to do the ones on a
[46:04] crank he's desperately trying to roll
[46:05] the window this thing this snot globule
[46:07] hits the window just as it's closing and
[46:10] it's covered the whole side of the
[46:11] window my dad's like oh
[46:13] [Laughter]
[46:16] I remember
[46:17] Mike because I was so young I'm like
[46:18] just to see his sheer Panic that was the
[46:21] closest thing he ever came to to the the
[46:24] the fear since he was probably in
[46:26] Vietnam
[46:30] that was really the only memory I had of
[46:33] the the Lincoln I was sitting in the
[46:35] back for that Masterpiece that's [ __ ]
[46:37] incredible all right anyway that went
[46:39] long but all right next uh Mr foof 82
[46:44] hope thank you again for the you got
[46:46] your money he won you won trivia he gave
[46:48] you five extra dollars for guessing that
[46:50] card oh wow oh thank you sir you're
[46:53] you're a good man is that the one he was
[46:54] really talking about yeah bonus is
[46:56] Promised Mark wow I would never get
[46:58] they're ready per leader
[47:01] I expected from someone in the heart of
[47:03] my last country thanks Mark well Mr
[47:06] foof82 you're more than welcome mark
[47:08] thank you for for getting that trivia
[47:09] right uh Jordan reader thank you for the
[47:12] five dollar donation mobster thanks for
[47:15] the two dollar donation thoughts on a
[47:17] gently used condom business uh Jordan
[47:19] thanks for the five bucks and um officer
[47:22] I would not play with that that field at
[47:24] all unless you're getting the condoms uh
[47:27] from trusted sources uh
[47:32] I would call me just call me after this
[47:34] okay uh uh Paul uh uh Kim
[47:41] anyway Paul thank you for the ten
[47:43] dollars what are your thoughts comparing
[47:44] the gr super manual to the current
[47:46] Cayman GTS and the new Lotus Amira super
[47:50] seems like a bargain at 40K or less I
[47:53] you know it wouldn't say you guys super
[47:55] for less than forty thousand dollars no
[47:56] it's fine oh no forty thousand dollars
[47:58] listening to the cards oh yeah I I would
[48:00] be really surprised if the super wasn't
[48:02] faster than the mirror around the track
[48:03] I think it would be I bet you the super
[48:06] is probably faster than they came in GTS
[48:07] too you think so pretty close I bet you
[48:10] just really cool alarmingly close I mean
[48:12] the Supra makes so much power no okay
[48:15] here we go let's let's okay you want to
[48:17] know why it makes so much power mark
[48:19] because the b-58 yeah that was like this
[48:23] dude set you up for that
[48:25] the Amira is a beautiful car I just
[48:28] watched everyday drivers three-way
[48:31] comparison between the Cayman GTS the C8
[48:34] Corvette a wonderful wonderful car built
[48:37] in Bowling Green Kentucky and naturally
[48:39] of course the Amira the Emira is
[48:41] probably the most beautiful car you can
[48:43] buy for under a hundred thousand dollars
[48:45] our PR rep and I saw this question
[48:48] earlier are we ever going to do in a
[48:49] mirror maybe we were supposed to do a
[48:50] mirror a year and a half ago it got
[48:52] delayed three separate times we asked
[48:55] the factory for footage they sent us
[48:56] something shot on an iPhone it maybe one
[48:59] day we'll do an Amira video but so far
[49:01] the Lotus experience dealing with the
[49:04] company is like I imagine how it's like
[49:06] to own an actual Lotus and get it
[49:08] serviced it is an interesting experience
[49:10] there's two different Lotus mentalities
[49:12] there's the people that live in the
[49:14] where the Home Market where that car is
[49:16] and thinks it's the best thing ever
[49:17] probably because there's dealerships to
[49:19] support it and then there's Lotus
[49:21] Fanatics in the US that will make every
[49:22] excuse for those cars because there's
[49:24] nothing else like it
[49:25] and that's really fair you know when I
[49:28] had the Exige it was a special car until
[49:29] I actually had to have it fixed and
[49:31] that's what did it for me they just
[49:33] didn't care they didn't you know it just
[49:35] to me that's not a good that I don't
[49:37] want a car where I can't get support on
[49:39] it and you're gonna need support on it
[49:40] and it's uh next even though it's not
[49:42] really a Next Generation car it's an X
[49:44] Generation car for Lotus and it's really
[49:46] our only car they don't have a lot of
[49:48] dealerships you're having five hundred
[49:50] thousand dollar car problems like 300
[49:53] 300 000 car from like Ferrari
[49:55] Lamborghini problems really more McLaren
[49:58] problems in a hundred thousand dollar
[50:01] car yeah if you can deal with that the
[50:03] Amira is amazing nothing else like it
[50:05] otherwise you know Supra versus Cayman
[50:08] the Cayman GTs for a leader I met
[50:10] someone who wants an Audubon driving
[50:12] school and bought one Cars engines
[50:15] amazing gearbox is great it looks good
[50:17] it's gonna hold its value is it forty
[50:19] thousand dollars better than the Supra
[50:20] would you you don't like the Supra so
[50:22] it's probably the wrong person asking
[50:23] would you mind would you buy a Cayman
[50:25] for the manual
[50:27] I will buy in my current position I'd
[50:30] buy a Supra because I think that what
[50:32] you're getting in the GTS 4 liter even
[50:34] though it's great is a lot of money it's
[50:37] really a lot of money for what that is I
[50:38] mean it's a great car though it's hard
[50:40] it just depends on what if you have
[50:42] disposable income and you can afford a
[50:44] GTS 4 liter you're gonna buy that yeah
[50:46] honestly a question and gentleman is
[50:49] asked a couple times that is a non-paid
[50:51] question and I'm sorry it's trying to go
[50:53] through like super chat and regular
[50:55] questions and I'm trying to make sure I
[50:57] hit as many people as possible gentlemen
[50:59] asked something about is an M2 or a
[51:02] Supra a good like
[51:04] first fast car
[51:06] if you've never been in a performance
[51:07] car before would you buy a like a super
[51:09] hour or a M2 do you think that's too
[51:12] much card at first like your first
[51:13] performance go jumping right into an M2
[51:15] or yes it's too much if you're gonna
[51:17] track it and enjoy it it's probably too
[51:19] much car if you're just gonna drive the
[51:21] street it's fine an M2 is a fast car oh
[51:23] it's really it depends how old you are
[51:25] and what your Driving Experience is but
[51:26] you don't if you don't have a lot of
[51:27] driving experience it's it's I would not
[51:29] recommend it I personally I just I think
[51:32] that car is you're asking for trouble if
[51:34] you don't have any driving aptitude to
[51:36] do it and yes there's a ton of
[51:37] electronics it's not to say that that's
[51:39] not going to save you but you're not
[51:41] going to get a lot out of it if you
[51:42] don't know how to drive that car so if
[51:44] you buy either of those cars go do a
[51:46] driving school immediately yes
[51:49] um yeah don't don't I'm not saying don't
[51:51] buy it I'm just saying if you buy that
[51:53] car you better tune up your own driving
[51:55] ability to to really do what you need to
[51:57] do with it and you're just going to be
[51:58] more safe too and you'll get to actually
[52:00] enjoy your car
[52:01] next question any word on the e92 M3
[52:05] after owning it asan Khan thank you for
[52:07] the two dollars uh you know I go up and
[52:09] back on that car and I think it's a
[52:11] great car personally if you're gonna if
[52:13] you really are passionate about and you
[52:15] love it just buy one and keep it because
[52:16] it's going to be probably you know like
[52:18] everything else a collectible
[52:20] um the the retrospect for me is I would
[52:22] never buy one again
[52:24] uh only because it's like it's the right
[52:28] engine in the wrong car that's it that's
[52:30] the best way to sum it up it just feels
[52:32] like such a special engine in a car that
[52:34] is just so cardboard
[52:36] I know it's got great Dynamics and all
[52:38] that stuff but really what that car
[52:40] should have been is like 500 pounds
[52:42] lighter it should have been far more
[52:44] focused it should have been edgy and it
[52:45] just feels like a boat like I don't know
[52:48] how to put it it just there's something
[52:50] wrong with like two different teams like
[52:53] oh we got to put this V8 in here that we
[52:55] have it's going to be amazing and the
[52:56] engine is amazing but the car is so so
[52:58] it's just I don't know that's how I feel
[53:00] about it it's a hero it was a hero car
[53:02] of mine in high school so like my my
[53:04] dream car in high school was a 997 gt34
[53:07] lead not surprising you I grew up
[53:09] watching Porsche's race but the other
[53:10] cars like my dream obtainable car one
[53:12] day I'll have an engineering job and
[53:13] I'll be able to buy an e92 M3 I drove a
[53:16] bunch of them in college as my friends
[53:17] owned used ones and it was first car and
[53:20] yours which I watched all of your
[53:22] problems like I'm never buying one and
[53:24] then I've driven modified them you know
[53:26] Matt from obsessed garage I've driven
[53:28] one of afa's cars and for how much money
[53:30] they are now particularly used [ __ ] no
[53:32] get something else and that's yeah and
[53:34] that's the thing price is a big factor
[53:36] like when I got mine I got mine at the
[53:38] top of the market like it was way
[53:40] expensive and that was like what forty
[53:42] thousand dollars or something like that
[53:44] that was expensive uh because I got a
[53:46] 2013 but now like they've gone up by
[53:49] another fifteen thousand dollars I think
[53:51] right yeah like a really really clean
[53:53] low miles one can be like 60 or 70 yeah
[53:56] that's just not worth it no no if you
[53:57] can if you could have got it in like the
[53:59] thirty thousand dollar range and you're
[54:00] gonna do rod bearings and all the other
[54:02] crap that you need to do and then
[54:03] suspension work and all that other
[54:05] things that breaks of course you still
[54:07] need to do brakes it's like you're
[54:08] getting like an eco car that you have to
[54:11] do like you won't get enough baby get a
[54:13] new M3 get an E46 I think that's a more
[54:15] special experience you go on an old BMW
[54:17] pile you get a GT350 with the world's
[54:19] longest warranty and roll the dice
[54:22] Corvette I mean there's a lot of cars
[54:24] for that kind of money the engine is
[54:26] really special though like you're buying
[54:27] that car for that I don't disagree uh
[54:30] Brosnan in Paris thank you for the two
[54:32] dollars why is there a limit on patreon
[54:33] it doesn't make sense well we're bad at
[54:35] managing patreon and I promise hand on
[54:37] my heart that chin face and I Chris and
[54:40] I will finally activate the Discord
[54:42] after saying this for three years for
[54:44] patreon and I will re-change the tiers
[54:46] once again so more people can join it
[54:48] just
[54:49] patreon's amazing we couldn't at all do
[54:52] some of our big projects without a
[54:53] genuinely patreons why we can be like Oh
[54:55] I'm gonna spend four thousand dollars to
[54:56] shoot a video like that's the only way
[54:58] we can do it is through patreon
[55:00] otherwise he and I would be living in a
[55:01] shoebox that's true and honestly I've
[55:03] said this before but this is like these
[55:05] past three months is the first time
[55:06] where like when I cash out patreon to go
[55:09] like it's critically important to the to
[55:12] this operating because we've done so
[55:13] many Big Brothers yeah it's it's
[55:14] literally has to be there and without
[55:16] that support this is done that's how bad
[55:18] it is and not bad but you know what I
[55:20] mean that's how important it is to us
[55:22] right now so yes Jack will update it and
[55:25] patreon is actually redoing their layout
[55:27] and stuff to help with that so you can
[55:29] see what things are easier so I think
[55:31] it's actually a good time to do it and
[55:33] like I get all these emails from patreon
[55:34] all the time like we're making this
[55:35] better we're making it easier for you do
[55:37] you want to hop on a call do you want to
[55:38] do this [ __ ] and it's like I'm gonna be
[55:40] up till two in the morning tonight
[55:41] editing the last thing I want to do is
[55:43] Hop on there it's just a matter of time
[55:44] it's it's we need it but we also need to
[55:47] spend more time with that part and I I'm
[55:49] not the world's greatest businessman but
[55:51] I'm trying my best to maintain the
[55:53] business side of things as well as
[55:54] typically if you do deal with someone on
[55:56] patreon and stock market it's me yeah
[55:58] and I do my best I do look at every
[56:01] single thing that comes on there
[56:04] it's just it's hard it's just hard like
[56:06] you've got you got to pick and choose
[56:07] what you're actually doing and for me
[56:09] it's how do I keep the content how do I
[56:11] keep things going uh wild frames let's
[56:15] start with hello hello wild frames thank
[56:17] you for the five dollars BGN best car
[56:20] views in the world thanks wild frames
[56:22] yes I really appreciate it thank you
[56:23] wild frames and thank you uh Bros in
[56:26] Paris and Asha Khan and everybody else
[56:29] thank you Ginger hermit thank you for
[56:31] the 25 for one of those peanut butter
[56:34] jelly wedges they're almond butter
[56:36] because Mark is weak
[56:38] I'm not going to get into why it's
[56:40] almond butter I don't have a peanut
[56:42] allergy Jack if that's what you're
[56:43] getting at but uh it's not health
[56:45] reasons really it's just a preference
[56:48] and he's wrong peanut butter is better
[56:50] uh sell uh Michael turning thank you for
[56:53] the two dollar donation
[56:55] uh who Scoops for ten dollars oh I like
[56:57] this name selling my
[56:59] 997.2 C2 six-speed and my 981 GTS six
[57:04] speed sadly just totaled by hail any
[57:07] suggestions for replacement trying for
[57:09] sixty thousand dollars and Below fomer
[57:12] M2 BRZ owner in M2 gr86 right now for
[57:17] daily slash autocross and One Track day
[57:19] a year
[57:20] and the daily part makes it harder so if
[57:22] you had sixty thousand dollars Mark what
[57:23] would you buy
[57:26] it's hard man
[57:28] the problems you're coming from a 997.2
[57:31] C2 six-speed like a really great Porsche
[57:34] and a 991 GTS six-speed also a really
[57:37] great Porsche getting into an M2 and
[57:39] coming from before show you're gonna be
[57:40] like oh man
[57:42] I just downgraded but you're gonna need
[57:44] to drive both um to see it's m2cs or M2
[57:47] competition M2 comp oh M2 comp I would
[57:49] take the gr 86
[57:52] I know that's so weird but it's going to
[57:54] be the most it's going to be the slower
[57:55] car but it's going to have the same good
[57:57] feeling of the Porsche in some ways and
[58:00] the the porschos yeah I hate to say it
[58:03] too I mean if you want a real driver's
[58:05] car the gr86 is probably I mean it's
[58:08] gonna feel like a [ __ ] box compared to
[58:10] those two Porsches you're getting out of
[58:11] and the engine's gonna feel like a
[58:12] garbage can because it kind of is a
[58:14] garbage engine
[58:15] but yeah and if you want a driver
[58:17] connection it's the best car for a drive
[58:19] for other than like a Miata that's like
[58:21] but you're gonna have to do tires and
[58:23] stuff like you have to literally do
[58:24] tires and GT350 with a really long
[58:26] warranty when it blows up don't message
[58:28] me
[58:30] drive them both drive them to
[58:32] competition in the gr 86 and you're
[58:34] gonna know right away like you're gonna
[58:35] know what talks to you more and I'm sure
[58:37] that the power is going to talk to you
[58:39] C7 Grand Sport that's another car if you
[58:41] were just dealing and you came in the
[58:43] c7s are I think I've sold mine at 2019
[58:46] which is the most desirable year in
[58:48] color for like 62 Grand so you're right
[58:50] there that car is amazing like I'm I
[58:53] many ways still prefer the C7 over the
[58:57] Z06 the current one the manual is not
[59:00] the best but it's a manual you feel like
[59:02] you get some of the old car feel out of
[59:04] it because it's really you know just an
[59:06] iteration of a C5 you're not going to
[59:08] talk to you're not going to talk a
[59:09] Porsche owner that's looking at a German
[59:11] car and a grd6 into a Chevy but it
[59:14] wasn't built in Bowling Green turkey
[59:15] where was I born built no their car
[59:18] those cars weren't this this car oh yeah
[59:21] oh I see it was built by America's
[59:22] Finest crafts you know what's funny I
[59:24] was thinking about the ss1le when he was
[59:26] saying that because that would have been
[59:27] another option yeah it's a badass ZL1 is
[59:30] a badass card see that car is hilarious
[59:32] yeah but you're talking about it's
[59:34] probably not in this you know it
[59:36] wouldn't be in on in my radar either
[59:38] Fair Point hopefully that helps who
[59:40] Scoops will Matt thank you for the five
[59:42] dollars my grandma Tess drove a stelvio
[59:44] quadrifoglio and loved it but it's been
[59:46] going back and forth between the Julia
[59:47] and Sylvia what would your what's your
[59:49] opinion would your grandmother sounds
[59:51] like a badass by the way yeah that's
[59:52] kind of a weird thing like do you want
[59:54] an SUV or a sedan no the grandma wants a
[59:57] quadrifoglio that's what I'm saying but
[59:58] a stalvio or a Julia are two totally
[60:01] different cars like if you don't need
[60:03] the space like if you don't need the SUV
[60:05] the Julia is way better that's one of
[60:08] the coolest sedans in the world like by
[60:10] a long stretch like I know you never
[60:12] drove it no I did oh I did I drove it I
[60:14] wrote America and I lost brakes that's
[60:16] right okay as a streetcar I would take
[60:19] the Julia let's just leave it there yeah
[60:21] the Julia is super cool and it sounds
[60:23] good yeah you roll down the windows and
[60:25] then just hear that thing rip oh
[60:28] Michael turning thank you for the one
[60:30] dollar super sticker once again
[60:32] oh and he's asking how old I am I am
[60:35] 735.
[60:37] now I'm 28. where did you see this
[60:39] question it's down here Michael turn him
[60:41] he just answered you know he managed to
[60:43] ask a question at the same time oh I see
[60:46] I have like multiple versions of her
[60:47] stream coming up including regular
[60:49] questions don't ever say that to me
[60:51] again so I'm horrible alphabach Brackley
[60:53] you are a gentleman sir long time patron
[60:56] of ours for 223. if the NSX video
[60:59] succeeds a Prelude video next year I
[61:03] would love to do a Prelude video I know
[61:04] you would I'd like to do the Prelude
[61:06] before the last one not the last I don't
[61:08] even know what Geno is the not the sh
[61:11] all-wheel drive with what the hell did
[61:13] they call it no not always drive sh
[61:15] super handling yeah but what the hell do
[61:18] they call it it was something else
[61:20] anyway not that one the previous one
[61:22] where it had the electrical elimination
[61:23] Dash across the whole Center that's
[61:26] that's the premium one we are Scott at
[61:29] King Motorsports has continues to offer
[61:30] us his K cars we are going to do a k-car
[61:32] video Yeah and those are badass that's
[61:34] going to be a hilarious video I look t
[61:37] for five dollars any updates on the
[61:39] Mazda 3 I bought one I'm very pleased
[61:41] one point five thousand miles later
[61:44] wanna hear keep hearing your experience
[61:46] and thanks experiences thank Jen thanks
[61:49] gents wow I just had a stroke like your
[61:51] grandma your grandma yeah you're gonna
[61:52] spit on me now
[61:54] um so the Mazda 3 long-termer is mine
[61:58] Mark has the MDX we're both getting to
[62:00] the end of our tenure with these cars
[62:02] I'm shooting that sort of wrap-up video
[62:04] uh in next week I've put 14
[62:09] 000 miles and as a sort of disclaimer my
[62:13] my girlfriend put most of the miles on
[62:15] that car because she's in medical school
[62:16] she did her rotations in it and I've
[62:18] driven it a lot we've serviced it I
[62:20] think this will be probably the most
[62:21] comprehensive look I can do
[62:23] in six months we put as many miles on
[62:25] this thing as possible but a Year's
[62:26] worth of miles in six months I talked to
[62:28] dealer tax figure out what breaks on
[62:30] them and it's not a bomb proof car there
[62:32] are problems with it
[62:34] hopefully you like it in the end
[62:36] um it's a great car though I think it's
[62:38] a car that the more time I spend in it
[62:39] you know initially I was sort of down on
[62:41] it but now it's a car that I get into
[62:43] like I drove it here I drove an hour to
[62:45] get here and I'm like
[62:47] I don't think about it it's a great like
[62:49] pseudo luxury car that looks good it's
[62:53] comfortable enough Nimble enough and
[62:54] it's not like a car that you ever I'm
[62:57] like man I don't want to be in this
[62:58] thing yeah I think of it as like as
[63:00] we've done this comparison I thought of
[63:01] it more as like a good GTI competitor
[63:03] it's it's like the layout compared to
[63:06] the golf is so much more intuitive and
[63:09] it just feels so easy and effortless to
[63:12] use that car on the inside
[63:14] um and if you don't need the space part
[63:16] like if you don't need you know a big
[63:17] back seat and a huge hatch space like
[63:19] some of the newer cars it is it's a
[63:22] special car in its segment it just you
[63:24] know again there's trade-offs Mazda
[63:26] needs you know they don't have unlimited
[63:27] money otherwise it would be even better
[63:29] but it's a really good car for what they
[63:31] set out to do
[63:32] actually you want to know how old I am
[63:34] Mark I'm b-58
[63:36] oh yeah yeah that's how old I am that's
[63:38] an amazing comment in the regular
[63:39] comments just that's how you I mean if I
[63:41] had time I would have Aid you this whole
[63:43] thing uh AJ for 220 Canadian
[63:48] um Genesis
[63:50] G80 V8 or Genesis G80 V8 so 2013 or 2015
[63:57] G80
[63:59] the Genesis wasn't
[64:00] the 2013 wasn't a Genesis was it wasn't
[64:03] a G80 in 2013. whatever the VA Genesis
[64:06] was in 2013. the first one didn't that
[64:09] motor of a ton of problems wasn't it I
[64:11] don't remember no it was a Genesis you
[64:13] could do the regular Genesis sedan which
[64:15] was a Hyundai had a V8 in 2013. I knew a
[64:18] friend of mine in
[64:19] I know yeah I know I didn't think I
[64:21] didn't think it wasn't a j they didn't
[64:23] switch over to the G G80 moniker until
[64:25] like
[64:30] anyway if you're gonna I don't know when
[64:32] they cut it off because they made
[64:33] revisions to that engine and I don't
[64:35] remember when they made the revisions
[64:40] sorry you know we gotta get on here it's
[64:42] 100 it was just called a Genesis in in
[64:44] 2013. but yeah it wasn't a Justice
[64:47] yeah the first one versus the later like
[64:50] the 2015 V8 what would you get
[64:52] uh they made improvements from the
[64:55] previous gen to the new one and then
[64:56] they made updates again so the the
[64:58] engine got changed three times and then
[65:00] the trans got changed like probably yeah
[65:01] this is the body style for the 2015.
[65:06] personally I I'm I would just say 2015
[65:09] because I think it's a far superior car
[65:11] it's on the a way better platform it's
[65:14] like the platform is like night and day
[65:16] better so just go with the 2015
[65:19] um and just be ready just in case have a
[65:21] warranty on that engine
[65:23] it's a great car though I love it Andy
[65:26] and Abby the lab it's pleasure seeing
[65:29] you guys both Joe and Deb
[65:31] paying for Jack and Mark to hold hands
[65:33] to the rest of the stream I will I will
[65:34] grab Mark's hand right now the reason
[65:37] the way I met Mark was that a singles
[65:40] pottery class that's really how I did it
[65:42] I wonder when do we have to stop holding
[65:44] hands oh we have to hold hands for the
[65:45] rest of the stream sadly uh your T
[65:48] levels are too high for me and I have to
[65:49] use my other hand so I'm gonna take it
[65:52] back Andy and Abby the lab I'm sorry I

[68:30] do a documentary on the Murano cross
[68:33] Cabriolet and we will fly to whatever
[68:35] country he lives in we won't survive

[68:49] dollars uh why don't you guys or if you
[68:52] review the Ford Taurus Show
[68:55] I'm going to be honest which one the the
[68:58] 2010 one the one that people think not
[69:00] the Conan O'Brien one but the the 2010
[69:03] one the Yamaha one or the new one the
[69:04] new one EcoBoost the one with EcoBoost
[69:06] uh you know what funny enough Scott had
[69:10] a guy that came in who was a viewer and
[69:12] he reached out like six or seven
[69:15] different times and this is when I was
[69:17] like really getting started with this
[69:19] stuff and it just it never happened
[69:22] um
[69:23] so yeah I don't know that it's gonna
[69:25] happen I'd be curious to do the old one
[69:27] more personally for me just because of
[69:30] the I think it would be funny
[69:32] and I could pretend to be robocup it
[69:34] just they wouldn't survive your driving
[69:35] oh no
[69:38] dude you'd rip the shifter right out of
[69:40] that column it would just rip off in
[69:42] your hand the dude 365 continuing the
[69:44] tradition of donating to Mark's
[69:46] washboard abs yeah thank you by the way

[70:50] Financial sense I'm going to need a
[70:52] sponsor for all my uh Scoops yeah

[70:57] dream no it had to be a real ice cream
[70:58] place that's like corporate no I
[71:00] wouldn't want to do corporate I'd want
[71:02] to do something like so my old man is a
[71:05] ice cream connoisseur like a genuine ice
[71:08] cream connoisseur and he will tell you
[71:09] about the different ways they're made
[71:11] and what places he should go to or what
[71:13] places you should you should go to
[71:15] apparently his favorite place in this
[71:18] area is graters which is surprising oh
[71:20] yeah yeah he loves the uh the one

[71:25] right Oleg thank you for the twenty
[71:27] dollars thank you uh Graham Daughtry
[71:31] thank you for the ten dollars I have a
[71:32] launcher and manual and love it I have
[71:34] an opportunity to buy a new RS3 and MSRP
[71:37] do uh should I do it I can afford it
[71:40] will primarily be my daily
[71:42] if you can afford the new RS3 is a
[71:44] badass car as a daily not as a track car
[71:46] but it's a daily uh I'm behind here
[71:49] thanks Andrew for the 10. I really
[71:51] appreciate it thanks for sticking in
[71:53] here and then of course Oleg thanks for
[71:55] the the twenty dollars

[72:01] a really Kick-Ass motorcycle jacket that
[72:04] I would look good in
[72:06] I'm sorry and uh Graham let's do it
[72:11] sorry what's what's the RS3 should you
[72:14] buy should he buy an RS3 he can afford
[72:16] it
[72:17] would you say it's a substantial enough
[72:19] upgrade over on a launch around yes I
[72:22] agree the RS3 the engine I don't care
[72:24] about anything else but the engine is
[72:25] great you get it I've this is one car I
[72:27] haven't told you about that I thought
[72:29] about getting an RS3 yes because because
[72:32] the engine I really love that car for
[72:34] whatever reason is like it's like the
[72:36] same reason I like the type R because
[72:37] it's a normal car with an amazing engine
[72:39] and you can do everything with it it's a
[72:41] little You could argue it's a little
[72:42] small and a very expensive for what it
[72:45] is but it is a special car if you can
[72:46] afford it get it in [ __ ] green lime
[72:49] green and then tear it up come peel down
[72:52] my neighborhood and drive through the
[72:53] grass and then flip me off like an Audi
[72:56] driver and I'll salute you sir you know
[72:58] on the track it's a bit numb I will say
[73:00] you will feel like you've lost some feel
[73:02] who cares yeah you have the engine the
[73:05] five the five cylinder is pretty
[73:06] spectacular yeah just put some stinky
[73:08] tires on there and figure out how to get
[73:09] more cambers and you're not driving it
[73:12] on the track you're driving down the
[73:14] street at 200 miles an hour
[73:17] uh
[73:18] tsukia for twenty dollars thank you for
[73:21] the twenty dollars and Graham hopefully
[73:22] that answers your question when are we
[73:25] getting a Lotus Emir review I don't know
[73:27] if so when things have an amazing
[73:29] content one day I I've already talked
[73:32] about this in this live stream once like
[73:35] a year and a half ago a year ago we
[73:38] approached Lotus they said yes then they
[73:40] said no and then they tried to get into
[73:41] the car in three separate times and now
[73:43] they only have two in the entire United
[73:44] States on the west coast I'm not going
[73:46] to California to do
[73:48] car
[73:49] I'm not I'm not going out of my way I'm
[73:54] gonna drag you in my luggage to go and
[73:55] now I just don't care yeah I think it's
[73:57] getting burned three separate times by
[73:59] lotus trying to put this together it
[74:00] means I just don't care as much
[74:02] um that's the thing like I don't want to
[74:04] do it unless they want to do it and they
[74:06] don't want to do it so I'm not gonna
[74:07] waste my time I got other I got the I
[74:10] got dibs on the new rogue update
[74:12] [Laughter]
[74:15] um the other part of it too is I think
[74:17] the thing that burned us is we had
[74:18] friends who worked at the Lotus dealer
[74:20] here and hearing what they were like to
[74:21] deal with from a corporate perspective
[74:23] you know you're like Gibran good good
[74:27] dude you know loves cars we'll put up
[74:29] with a lot of [ __ ] but you know he's in
[74:31] a position because he owns multiple cars
[74:33] despite buying a car 100 Grand you know
[74:35] he has deeper Pockets than that that for
[74:37] him if it goes down it's not a big deal
[74:39] if you're a regular person who's put
[74:41] together his his ducats to buy uh a
[74:45] Lotus of mirrors that final like this is
[74:48] the car I always wanted you're buying a
[74:50] hundred thousand dollar car that you're
[74:51] not going to be able to get parts for
[74:52] your your dealer experience is gonna be
[74:54] a joke if you even have a dealer locally
[74:57] it's gonna be a huge pain in the ass
[74:58] like it's sad because I love the way the
[75:00] car looks I everyone I've met who's
[75:03] driven it says it's you know navora it
[75:05] means it drives great
[75:07] you know it's hard to be like yeah buy
[75:09] it unless you have a high tolerance for
[75:11] BS
[75:12] yeah that would be like my fourth car or
[75:14] fifth car I think if I had to have one
[75:16] and I wouldn't care if it broke because
[75:17] I would never drive it
[75:20] mk3504 thank you for the twenty dollars
[75:22] I have learned a tremendous amount from
[75:24] this channel love you
[75:26] um that was the point of this right is
[75:27] to teach people things about cars
[75:30] and uh
[75:32] sorry
[75:34] Suka thank you for the 20 and the the
[75:37] the Lotus of mirror review I and when I
[75:39] do when this does happen by the way to
[75:41] be serious if they if we do reconnect
[75:43] with them and they're gonna willing to
[75:45] give us resources other than just being
[75:46] like fly in your own dime to California
[75:49] and do a great video for us so we can
[75:51] Market this car if it's not that I will
[75:53] do it because I really do I love The
[75:55] Vora I'm sure I'm gonna love the Amira
[75:57] for what it is
[75:59] um and in terms of
[76:01] mk3504 I've he's he's obviously learned
[76:05] a lot because I'm on this channel
[76:07] thank you I appreciate it oh my God
[76:10] because of me or it was everything
[76:13] unless they're speed routing through
[76:14] this because we have 10 billion
[76:15] questions and I promise that I wouldn't
[76:16] be here till the end of time Jonathan a
[76:19] boot for 10 11 Canadian time to treat
[76:22] myself with a toy option one Audi R8
[76:24] with gated manual would like your
[76:26] opinion V8 versus V10 in terms of value
[76:29] proposition experience option two Lotus
[76:31] Samira would you look at that another
[76:33] Lotus Amira question Audi V10 R8 V10
[76:36] done deal easy that car is [ __ ]
[76:39] amazing the engine
[76:41] whatever deficiencies that car has with
[76:44] interior and all the other stuff that
[76:46] that engine is a special experience and
[76:48] as soon as you wind it out on a road and
[76:50] you're cruising around you're not going
[76:51] to care about anything else that 3.5
[76:54] liter Toyota engine doesn't matter how
[76:57] they make the exhaust sound is not going
[76:59] to match it nor is a V8 although the V8
[77:02] is also very good and the V8 and the V10
[77:05] both go click clack when you shift
[77:06] because it's gated shifter I think the
[77:08] R8 with the manual is cooler than the
[77:10] Lotus Amira by far I mean maybe it
[77:13] doesn't look as cool but I don't know
[77:15] yeah I mean they're both really good
[77:16] looking cars but yeah the V10 is going
[77:19] to hold its value anybody that has money
[77:20] is going to want a V10 or if you've got
[77:23] a coupe with a manuals V10
[77:25] you could put miles on it it probably
[77:27] sold that's all this value it's just
[77:29] going to be a maintenance [ __ ] for sure
[77:30] Andrew Ellis
[77:34] um thank you again for that thank you
[77:35] for the five dollars would you care to
[77:37] share how you capture such high quality
[77:39] audio it's a eyed all our audio is AI
[77:41] yeah it's all yeah it's perfect yeah
[77:44] we're not even here people yeah we've
[77:46] been Auto generated by the Auto industry
[77:48] and the Computing Computing industry
[77:50] right now we're on a high compute
[77:52] cluster running at 20 teraflops a second
[77:55] the way we capture audio is through a
[77:58] lot of effort this [ __ ] is like I
[78:00] need to capture audio he's out there
[78:01] with a microphone for like four hours
[78:03] he's like Jack more I need more like
[78:06] it's see Jack has the idea in his head
[78:08] of what he wants to do but because I
[78:10] have to edit it I know what it takes
[78:12] well mostly what it takes to try to get
[78:14] stuff done and when you actually have to
[78:16] do the work of recording it I see one
[78:18] Jack's on the card going back and forth
[78:20] I just see the life sucking out of him
[78:22] like Jack I need you to do it again he
[78:23] drives by like so angry just like I
[78:26] don't wanna do it again so it is it's a
[78:30] combination of so here's the trick I'm
[78:32] gonna tell you this you need to have
[78:34] microphones that are high or low
[78:38] sensitive look have a lower sensitivity
[78:40] that don't blow out if you're if you
[78:44] have a microphone that's too sensitive
[78:45] it's going to clip whenever you do
[78:47] anything so you need to make sure that
[78:48] and they always need to be at the lowest
[78:50] setting possible once you have all of
[78:53] that you need to make sure that you have
[78:54] good stereo Separation on them so it's
[78:57] not just a Monaro is fine but if you
[78:59] have a monorail mic then you need stereo
[79:01] mic something to left and right and cut
[79:03] it together and then really a lot of it
[79:05] once you have the recording a lot of it
[79:07] is just editing you have to be creative
[79:09] enough of like how do I splice it
[79:10] together and you'll see this Integra
[79:12] video coming up
[79:14] um I can't play it for you right now but
[79:15] when you see the entire video look at
[79:17] the beginning sequence and you'll see if
[79:20] you Stripped Away and just listened to
[79:21] the audio it's just a lot of clever
[79:23] editing of like okay I have all these
[79:25] sound clips and I'm gonna puzzle piece
[79:27] them in how do I get them to sweep over
[79:29] how do I get them into rear channel
[79:31] because it's YouTube's two channel like
[79:32] how do I get them to sweep to the back
[79:34] channels if you have surround sound like
[79:35] to give that effect of spatial less and
[79:38] I also started cheating and using a
[79:39] spatial mic as well which really helps
[79:41] that experience but anyway think in your
[79:44] head of what you want to see and what
[79:47] you want to hear and how you would put
[79:48] the sound in and it doesn't have to be
[79:50] one-to-one it can be like creative and
[79:52] that's that's how it works I'm not
[79:54] saying I'm the best person at doing it
[79:55] but a lot of it is just how do I make
[79:58] something that's not the greatest into
[80:00] something way better and that's how I
[80:01] approach it Merrick D for fifty dollars
[80:04] Mary thank you very much for the fifty
[80:05] dollars love you guys my favorite sub on
[80:08] YouTube when will you review the new
[80:09] Lexus TX
[80:12] I don't know that just got announced in
[80:14] it yeah typically I mean we're we try to
[80:17] be on everyone Alexis
[80:19] um press launches we'll definitely go to
[80:21] that one
[80:22] um if you have any you know huge
[80:25] questions about it find Mark or i on
[80:27] Instagram and hit us up and we will do
[80:29] our best to make sure we address those
[80:31] questions on our review
[80:33] and again Merrick thank you very much
[80:35] for the fifty dollars Merrick it's not
[80:37] marriage
[80:38] excuse me why don't you use it properly
[80:40] you don't ever slob jeans cooking over
[80:43] there
[80:44] it's Mark his name's Mark if you wanted
[80:48] to ruin it for him oh hey Mark hey Mark
[80:51] no thanks man I appreciate uh as soon as
[80:53] we get it usually we didn't we're
[80:54] probably not gonna I'm not gonna go to
[80:55] the launch for it but personally for me
[80:58] I'm really interested in it because the
[81:00] grand Highlander is kind of like it's
[81:01] cool but I'd like to have the Lexus part
[81:04] of it so I think it's going to be great
[81:05] especially when they actually get real
[81:06] what your big complaint was what can you
[81:09] do with standard dampers on the grand
[81:10] Highlander you're stuck with
[81:12] non-adaptive dampers and that's
[81:13] something the Lexus is gonna fix this
[81:15] ride quality hopefully it doesn't wallow
[81:17] and Bob I mean even it does it'll have a
[81:19] comfort mode but it'll ten to one it's
[81:21] gonna ride a lot better than the grand
[81:22] Islanders so I'm kind of excited for
[81:24] that Michael turning thank you for the
[81:25] five dollars Dale mcloyd will when will
[81:28] you review the cx-90
[81:30] we have put this will be the longest
[81:32] cx90 video that anyone puts out with
[81:34] like four hours interviews I just
[81:36] finished shooting b-roll in a second
[81:37] cx90 because the first one we got sent
[81:39] was a pre-pro and there's something
[81:41] wrong with it see I mean we we've
[81:44] already reviewed it we've we've shot the
[81:46] video now it's just up to us editing it
[81:48] our goal is to have it out sometime this
[81:50] month so the the story was is Jack went
[81:52] to the launch he got all the interviews
[81:53] that's what he focused his time on and
[81:54] there's a lot
[81:55] and then we're like we need the car
[81:57] separately so we could do it so we got
[81:59] the car and it it wasn't right there was
[82:01] something wrong with it and we know this
[82:03] is a pre-pro card yes so it's not
[82:06] accurate to the car we told them like
[82:07] we're not gonna do a video on this car
[82:09] because we don't want them to we don't
[82:11] want to hurt the car if that was just a
[82:13] one-off so we waited to get a second one
[82:15] which unfortunately took like what a
[82:17] month and a half now yeah yeah so we're
[82:19] like now we're way behind because we had
[82:20] to wait for another one and Jack says
[82:22] there's some of the same stuff but it's
[82:24] better overall right yeah it's not the
[82:26] the other car was massively messed up
[82:28] okay all right so that that's the story
[82:29] behind it you'll see the video soon
[82:31] enough our London for twenty dollars as
[82:34] I'm trying to accelerate through these
[82:36] questions because we have so many of
[82:37] them uh how's the engine in your X7
[82:40] holding up any reliability issues our
[82:42] London thank you for the twenty dollars
[82:44] I'm considered trading my gheebly for an
[82:47] m550i which I believe has the same
[82:49] engine don't worry about it as long as
[82:50] you get the m550i from the up the last
[82:53] update yeah because there was the the V8
[82:55] that
[82:56] didn't it's like technical update too
[82:59] when they went to technical update three
[83:00] which was started in 2020 I think it
[83:03] might have been in the Five series
[83:04] before that I've had zero problems with
[83:06] the engine zero problems yeah it's got
[83:09] 42 000 miles on it so yes it's going to
[83:12] be expensive to repair I will warn you
[83:15] that but so far this last updated V8
[83:18] before they went to the hybrid one uh
[83:21] because they just went to the hybrid one
[83:22] M60 whatever it's been solid and most
[83:25] people I haven't seen any complaints
[83:26] about it at all so don't I would say if
[83:28] you're worried about a Ghibli versus a
[83:31] yeah zero issue
[83:34] um Conor McMahon for five dollars what
[83:37] do you think about the 2012 20 2013 Boss
[83:41] 302 Mustang would you consider doing a
[83:43] review of one as the most track capable
[83:46] live axle Mustang I love
[83:49] the boss 302. I know you you always I
[83:52] love that car I also love the
[83:56] 2013-2014
[83:57] GT500 with 665 horsepower that does not
[84:01] drive properly those cars are not the
[84:03] best cars in the world but they ooze
[84:05] charm if we ever had one
[84:07] where the owner was all right with me
[84:08] making my kind of video
[84:12] but yes I would love love to do a boss
[84:17] 302 or really
[84:19] any performance
[84:22] version of a 13 or 12 Mustang yeah you
[84:25] got an affinity towards these American
[84:27] cars man like these muscle cars like
[84:29] that I drove the Boss 302 and I'd agree
[84:31] it's a cool car I'm sure I'd be just
[84:33] curious because I drove it when I was in
[84:35] Era yeah so I don't know how well it's
[84:37] going to age because now all the new all
[84:39] the new tangs are like they're so fast
[84:41] so I don't know is it still gonna be fun
[84:43] is it gonna be good if they're they I
[84:46] don't know what Kobe did the prices are
[84:47] well they're like 30 grand for 30 grand
[84:48] that's a lot of yeah
[84:50] the GT500 I think would be hilarious
[84:52] because it's a bad car yeah yeah just I
[84:54] think from a comedy perspective it would
[84:56] be funny uh Christopher Keach I'm glad
[84:59] he joined the loogie story Mark oh yes
[85:02] thank you sir I put my heart into that
[85:04] story uh
[85:06] Krone 151 for 20 long time patreon
[85:09] subscriber I've been using your car
[85:11] reviews lately
[85:13] since I have two friends in the market
[85:15] for automobiles thanks for all the hard
[85:16] work hopefully they find Value in these
[85:18] videos man yeah and thank you Osa for
[85:21] being a patreon subscriber that's deeply
[85:22] helpful yes thank you so much really
[85:24] appreciate it
[85:26] uh Darian Mayers for twenty dollars I
[85:29] bought a 991 career T CX-5 and now a
[85:31] cx50 because of you guys referring to
[85:34] the crarity specifically on paper the
[85:36] 992 doesn't seem like that much of an
[85:37] upgrade so I'm curious to know what Mark
[85:39] likes so much about the 992 versus the
[85:41] 991 I'm a Porsche guy so you know I'm
[85:44] not probably the best person to ask why
[85:46] do you like the new interior or new car
[85:48] versus the old car well a lot of it is
[85:50] interior exterior styling I I I I know
[85:54] that's not a really great explanation
[85:56] because you can speak to the mechanical
[85:58] part of what's different better than I
[85:59] can because I don't remember they're
[86:02] literally it's it's a portion of my
[86:04] Kodak my code activated I mean how much
[86:07] different is it mechanically
[86:09] I mean honestly because it's not the
[86:12] double Wishbone car like the GT3 the
[86:13] next one yeah
[86:17] it's probably 10 15 better to drive
[86:21] maybe from a mechanical perspective
[86:23] objectively the one place that's worse
[86:24] is actually the gearbox I think I think
[86:28] the bushings because they took the
[86:30] mechanism out of the GT3 from the 991
[86:34] Carrera T but all they did for the 992
[86:36] was shorten the gear knob the gearbox
[86:39] isn't as good but mechanically again
[86:40] lace generation dampers it's the
[86:43] iterative learning process of you know
[86:45] just making a car for a long period of
[86:46] time it's like when we drove the 3.8 GT3
[86:49] and the four liter GT3 bumping 991s you
[86:53] know could you say it was 50 Grand
[86:55] better no but was it a lot better yes
[86:58] because the damper technology got better
[86:59] the iterative design the the
[87:02] the steering tuning the engine was
[87:04] better it's like subtle changes to make
[87:07] it a better
[87:08] product are there I just I don't know if
[87:10] I so to be honest it's not worth it no
[87:13] God no I mean if you were if you were
[87:14] trying to decide between both of them at
[87:16] the same time then yeah the 992 is
[87:18] better but the 992 is mostly better
[87:19] because to your point it's an iterative
[87:21] a little bit better mechanically just
[87:24] overall but the styling for me is
[87:27] objective and the interior is mostly
[87:28] objective the interior is better the
[87:30] layout is much better on the 992 it's
[87:32] more cohesive it feels like a more
[87:34] special space less generic but that's
[87:36] not worth dumping that car forever a new
[87:38] one over that you know you're Cross
[87:40] Shopping it for like some really high
[87:42] horsepower variant 911 sure but I don't
[87:45] think the 992 is worth the Delta over a
[87:49] 991 career the only time the 992 is is a
[87:53] big upgrade is in the GT3 because of the
[87:55] suspension it's a much GT3 RS right yeah
[87:58] you're talking about but you have to go
[87:59] way high up and so to answer your
[88:01] question you don't have to don't get rid
[88:03] of your cards it's going to be the same
[88:04] thing for you Chef Randy Marsh for ten
[88:07] dollars glad to see my two favorite
[88:08] takumis back on the live stream horse
[88:11] yeah I forgot how long these were too
[88:14] yeah I know I know my deodorants failing
[88:17] again
[88:18] what danger to manifold wasn't that the
[88:21] uh yeah that's the Fast and the Furious
[88:23] movie by the way you guys should
[88:24] definitely check out that new Fast and
[88:25] the Furious movie you know a stroke well
[88:28] yeah I'd go in with a bottle of Etc and
[88:30] ready
[88:32] uh Bruce view if you started your own
[88:35] car brand what would it be called what
[88:37] would your first model be it'd be some
[88:39] alpha numeric [ __ ] be like
[88:41] azbd4 what was your first model B A zbd
[88:45] would it be I like that question SUV car
[88:48] Cub CUV for sure it would be all touch
[88:51] screens because as we just found out
[88:52] from a designer people like touch
[88:54] everything yeah we don't even need to do
[88:55] our reasons it would use the Unreal
[88:57] Engine for every everything would have
[88:59] the Unreal Engine yeah well at least the
[89:00] marketing part of it no no everything
[89:02] you don't need Don real you can just say
[89:04] it has it
[89:05] you know what I mean like just just say
[89:07] it's got the owner you would have swipe
[89:08] to steer because that's the next it
[89:10] would have it would definitely have a
[89:11] screen and the steering wheel with a
[89:13] yoke it would have a the biggest Grill
[89:15] possible yeah it would just it would be
[89:17] no the grill would be a screen that way
[89:20] you can change the grills oh yeah you
[89:22] know you can change the grills digitally
[89:23] you don't be I don't have to be stuck
[89:24] with one Grill I mean you don't need a
[89:27] physical Grill anymore Jack and it would
[89:29] be like ten thousand pounds
[89:30] well to start you could get the weight
[89:35] package too that's the thing like you
[89:37] could add well in your case you could
[89:39] have the bullion Club package where it
[89:41] just adds gold bars in the back
[89:43] anyway that's and it would definitely
[89:45] have exterior speakers that someone
[89:47] brought that up that would definitely
[89:48] have exterior exterior speakers for sure
[89:51] so people can hear you talking your
[89:52] business calls you can just hear me
[89:54] outside
[89:58] yeah you're already integrated speaking
[90:01] of amazing cars you know the car that we
[90:03] saw in Japan that I still dream about oh
[90:05] here we go the Alphard the Alfred the
[90:08] Alfred the Alfred van is tremendous and
[90:11] if you own one I'm jealous all right
[90:13] send it to the US I will dominate the
[90:16] world with that uh Ryan Howard or rain
[90:19] Howard sorry thank you for the twenty
[90:21] dollars thank you sir AJ for 220 how was
[90:24] the X7
[90:25] great
[90:26] uh we answered that question no I I
[90:28] honestly I I like it I just don't like
[90:30] how much it costs that's my only
[90:32] complaint is it's all it's a lot to run
[90:34] it's expensive in terms of fuel uh
[90:36] consumables are [ __ ] insane did we
[90:39] talk about the tires Jack yeah they cost
[90:41] as much as your Z06 Corvette tires
[90:46] they last like 50 like 50 000 miles yeah
[90:48] on an exode which is like horrifying in
[90:51] the insurance my insurance went up to
[90:53] 2500 every six months
[90:57] X7 is more than on a Z06 I have to get
[91:00] rid of this thing just purely based on
[91:02] that I gotta actually call other
[91:03] insurance companies because that it went
[91:05] from if you go to the general with Shaq
[91:07] yeah I'm gonna have to go to Shack I'm
[91:09] just gonna drop the insurance off of it
[91:10] and uh yeah I'm gonna tell an Ultima
[91:14] behind me just or no tow it with the
[91:16] Ultima I should
[91:18] um yeah that no that car is going away I
[91:20] can't I can't I just can't afford to
[91:22] keep it Raphael for ten dollars in
[91:24] September my car will be three years old
[91:25] I was planning to replace it with a
[91:27] Lexus is 500 but I'm loving the Integra
[91:29] Type S what would you pick
[91:32] I can't we can't talk about how the
[91:33] Integra Type S drives yet but I'm sure
[91:36] yeah that's that's a tough call do you
[91:39] want a V8 or do you want a manual
[91:40] gearbox which you know do you want a
[91:43] driver's car or do you want a V8 boat
[91:44] that's what you got to decide
[91:46] man I can't they're totally two
[91:48] different cars they're not even the same
[91:50] you want drivers boat with so you want
[91:53] driver's car manual you know Nimble
[91:56] you've focused in the driving part but
[91:58] also a good daily or do you want the the
[92:01] type S is not a luxury car so if you're
[92:03] expecting it to be like an is-500 in
[92:06] terms of like that luxury car thing
[92:08] that's not what it is
[92:09] so yeah
[92:12] get them both keep them both I think
[92:14] you'd love them both I mean if you can
[92:16] afford to have them both do it do you
[92:18] want a manual do you want a V8 yes yes
[92:20] that's the big thing if you want a
[92:21] manual car then of course the Integra is
[92:22] going to be way better forget full foot
[92:24] for five dollars forgetful foot good to
[92:27] see you again love the 987 review
[92:28] looking forward to the 97.2 we'll
[92:31] probably do that in full
[92:34] um also picked up my first s2001 owner
[92:36] for 24 000 US Dollars bargain
[92:38] congratulations forgetful foot hopefully
[92:40] you love your s2000.
[92:43] yeah that that should be a a fun car for
[92:46] you to experience uh Ginger Herman he is
[92:49] team almond butter mark thank you for
[92:51] the almond butter way more expensive
[92:52] than the plebeian or plebeian peanut
[92:55] butter peasants I know I should know as
[92:58] I'm coming from a fancy gentleman I I
[93:00] should have known coming from a fancy
[93:02] gentleman such as yourself yeah the
[93:03] almond butter is from Trader Joe's
[93:05] though and I get this the one that's
[93:06] extra salt or I guess it's sausage
[93:09] that's I think that's that doesn't extra
[93:11] salty but it's a taste it tastes extra
[93:13] salty I like it because it actually has
[93:15] flavors that's what you have wardens
[93:16] cans throughout your year yeah I just I
[93:18] just pour it I use it I don't even buy
[93:20] salt I buy the water softener salt and
[93:21] put it in my food now the pellets
[93:25] God it's like just a horrifying picture
[93:27] Morgan asked for fifty dollars Morgan
[93:29] thank you very much which is a better
[93:31] buy a new manual Camaro SS convertible
[93:34] convertible or a Porsche Boxster SS
[93:37] starts at 47 Boxster starts at 70. seems
[93:40] like the Camaro on paper is a lot more
[93:41] car for the money interested in your
[93:43] thoughts
[93:45] man
[93:46] I don't think the Camaro is a great con
[93:48] I know you want a convertible
[93:50] um
[93:51] Boxster
[93:53] I would take the Boxster I hate to be
[93:55] that guy if you want a Camaro loss I
[93:57] mean it depends if you really want a
[93:59] manual
[94:00] um
[94:02] if you can afford a Boxster oh they're
[94:05] not even this they're not even like
[94:06] comparable cars the box is really 70 by
[94:08] the time you're done it's like in the
[94:09] Box you're so Nimble and like light and
[94:12] like quick feeling and the Camaro is
[94:13] going to be like a boat with a
[94:15] convertible it's just gonna be like V8
[94:17] muscle I I don't see them being the same
[94:19] I mean if you're if cost is not an issue
[94:21] you buy the Porsche 10 out of 10 times
[94:24] save money and get a C8 yeah but that
[94:27] looks it looks horrible I agree like
[94:29] this the narrow body car does not look
[94:31] good you get a C7 convertible with a
[94:32] manual yeah that makes more sense yeah
[94:34] if you're already looking at a Camaro SS
[94:36] convertible why don't you just get a you
[94:38] can get a C7 Coupe pull off the target
[94:40] top and you have a convertible
[94:43] experience with a V8 it's a better car
[94:46] and a manual he's probably doesn't he's
[94:48] probably not in the lawn chairs like you
[94:49] are no you know my weakness my weakness
[94:52] for launchers
[94:54] um I know man that's that's a hard one I
[94:55] I wish I knew more I would definitely
[94:58] choose the Porsche
[95:00] it's not a better value but it's a
[95:02] better car yes for sure thank you though
[95:05] Morgan I appreciate it man thank you or
[95:07] if you're female or male or thank you as
[95:10] a human being a human being right sorry
[95:12] I don't I don't want to cause any static
[95:14] with people uh and we already answered
[95:16] that one hey how old is Jack I'm b58
[95:18] years old this guy he just turned 40. uh
[95:22] rev Nation for two dollars how do you
[95:24] grow
[95:26] Ain't No Way Jack is a Zoomer jack is
[95:28] not a Zoomer that I can tell you
[95:31] did I just lose that question whether
[95:33] the question yeah oh I probably how do
[95:35] you crap [ __ ] sorry man oh that was my
[95:39] fault
[95:40] the question was how do you grow a
[95:42] channel if you're new uh that was the
[95:45] question yes that's all I remember about
[95:47] the question
[95:49] um how do you grow a channel if you're
[95:50] new that is hard it's not like it used
[95:53] to be everybody's gonna tell you oh you
[95:54] just got to be unique
[95:56] yeah persistence I honestly I don't know
[95:59] we're just sort of it depends on what
[96:01] you're doing right like it depends on
[96:03] what you're doing such a broad question
[96:04] how much uh
[96:06] if it's car related
[96:09] it's going to take a lot of work a lot
[96:11] of work you're gonna have to start with
[96:12] your own cars you're gonna have to start
[96:14] with borrowed cars or something you're
[96:15] gonna have to have a unique angle that
[96:17] nobody else has or you're stuck doing
[96:20] The Tick Tock Instagram reels thing
[96:23] where you're trying to churn out
[96:25] something in a minute and then it's got
[96:26] to be different again like eye-catching
[96:28] funny or
[96:30] um from the YouTube perspective you're
[96:32] gonna have to devote a lot of time and a
[96:35] lot of Heartache to try to get out as
[96:37] many videos as possible probably four
[96:40] videos a week

[98:39] alive through school saving and
[98:41] delivering the best car content on
[98:43] YouTube congratulations on your purchase
[98:45] line that's really it's such a badass
[98:46] car we just had we just talked about
[98:48] this car for like the past three days
[98:50] Jack would just randomly have outbursts
[98:53] man I would love a G2 just like randomly
[98:56] he would say it I'm like dude what the
[98:57] [ __ ] are you first in Europe because we
[98:59] were working on the Mustang project yeah
[99:00] that's true again it triggered all that
[99:02] I mean I it is it's probably one of the
[99:06] most memorable cars I've ever driven in
[99:08] recent like modern history in the past
[99:10] seven years we worked with a Ford
[99:13] performance engineer we worked with
[99:15] everyone who worked on the car but I did
[99:17] the shop segment with the Ford
[99:18] performance and our Ford engineer who
[99:19] worked on the Mustang Dark Horse and he
[99:21] pulled me aside on one of the best
[99:22] driving car we've ever built is a gt350r
[99:26] that car is so special it blows up you
[99:29] might blow up your car Lane and if you
[99:31] do I'm sorry but at least you have a
[99:34] badass car in the meantime just make
[99:35] sure you have some engine stockpiled
[99:37] yeah that's what I told the engineer I'm
[99:39] like you got to buy that car and two
[99:40] crate engines to go along with it like
[99:41] brake pads
[99:43] but yeah I mean it's it's still still an
[99:46] amazing experience and now you know
[99:48] internally that it blows up they're like
[99:50] yep that car has got some problems you
[99:52] just roll the dice well in five years
[99:54] when they don't have to warranty them
[99:55] anymore they're like oh man we made some
[99:58] mistakes on that one
[100:04] uh do you have any opinions or thoughts
[100:06] on the new Mazda hybrid rotary with the
[100:08] sin gas ethanol being the savior of ice
[100:10] over the next 10 years
[100:13] I honestly I I know they've been working
[100:15] on synthetic feels but I I really have
[100:17] not followed the details of it so I I
[100:19] don't know I mean
[100:22] I feel like every week something pops up
[100:24] about some savior of synthetic fuels or
[100:28] uh solid state batteries or urine from a
[100:32] donkey that comes from space I don't
[100:35] know like I I would love to see it
[100:37] because if that happened
[100:38] we would have some really cool cars
[100:40] again for sure
[100:42] sorry I don't have a better answer yeah
[100:44] I feel bad it's just something I haven't
[100:46] given a lot of thought
[100:48] um can uh Chris walks fast thank you for
[100:51] the two dollars can you talk more about
[100:53] the STI engine failure was the owner mad
[100:56] uh Dom is actually somewhere in the
[100:59] comments he's the guy with the ss209
[101:01] nameplate he told me today I forgot to
[101:04] tell mark this at first off Tom is the
[101:05] nicest guy in the world I'm not just
[101:07] saying this because we blew up his car
[101:08] he worked with us on the original STIs
[101:10] 209 video super good dude uh he wanted
[101:14] the car to be there as Marcus Beat to
[101:15] Death at this point and the reason it
[101:17] failed
[101:18] is did he get back to you yeah rod
[101:20] bearing on the fourth cylinder one was
[101:24] what failed and um prior to that the
[101:26] only issue he's had and this guy is like
[101:28] hyper and the whole car was ppf'd you
[101:31] know he's never tracked the car he's
[101:33] done all of his maintenance at
[101:34] dealerships prior to the car losing its
[101:37] engine like in the last Thousand Miles
[101:39] and Dom will probably
[101:40] be more accurate at least in the
[101:42] comments is that it uh it lost his
[101:45] Catalyst which probably means it was
[101:47] running rich and then you know this was
[101:50] the slight or eating through oil yeah
[101:52] one or the other well no he never had
[101:54] any burning oil problems oh he didn't
[101:55] nope probably like this I mean Brit only
[101:58] ran three laps and we're not talking
[102:01] about yeah and it's not on super sticky
[102:02] tours it wouldn't have been a GE load
[102:04] issue so it was probably it was already
[102:06] worn through the bearings it was just I
[102:08] just needed yep the small shove it
[102:10] needed Subaru problems they did warranty
[102:12] the car do I think they would have
[102:14] warrantied it if we towed it yes well no
[102:16] well I don't want to get into the
[102:18] nitty-gritty of it but we did it the
[102:20] right way like I think we did it the
[102:22] right way it was handled professionally
[102:24] he did the right thing with the
[102:26] dealership and we we talked about this
[102:28] beforehand or I had you talk to him
[102:30] about it like make sure the car has had
[102:31] its maintenance done there's no
[102:32] modifications they did a service before
[102:35] we did it ever he did everything you're
[102:37] supposed to do with a car like that to
[102:39] make sure that you get the any type of
[102:41] warranty work done properly without any
[102:43] fight and there should have been zero
[102:45] fight with it and even on our side our
[102:47] super reps agreed and they made sure
[102:49] that they hand hold the back end to make
[102:51] sure that the engine was coming from
[102:52] Japan that you know the process of it
[102:54] even the dealership was hand selling the
[102:56] process well and he's you know he really
[103:00] is the type of person that you would
[103:01] love that's the person you love as
[103:04] somebody that buys your cars he doesn't
[103:06] just care about the STIs he wants a
[103:07] regular Subaru he'll own multiple new
[103:09] Subarus like he really loves the brand
[103:11] and you know you could say what you want
[103:12] about Subaru they have their following
[103:14] and he it does the way that they handled
[103:17] this is exactly the reason it's going to
[103:20] keep him around as a customer it's a
[103:22] good lesson for Brands to build equity
[103:25] with people by doing the right thing if
[103:27] in his case he did the right thing with
[103:29] this car I'm not talking about somebody
[103:30] that went out and had you know E85 and a
[103:33] tune and like you know running you know
[103:36] different uh boost pressures and all
[103:38] this stuff no this car was stuck and was
[103:40] treated well and done all the
[103:42] maintenance so he deserved to get the
[103:43] treatment he did uh Flat 6 Fiesta for
[103:47] five dollars 80m going anywhere rs3s are
[103:49] going for seventy thousand dollars is
[103:51] 500s are going to seventy thousand
[103:54] dollars and two competitions are 60
[103:55] Grand car prices are through the roof
[103:58] you see this as the new normal until we
[104:00] all go broke in the finance and there's
[104:02] a huge financial crisis for the
[104:03] foreseeable future
[104:05] maybe yeah it's yeah I would say it's
[104:08] going to stay this way uh until the the
[104:11] credit prop credit thing blows up you
[104:15] know if you have banks that stop lending
[104:17] or interest rates start to get really
[104:20] really out of hand and they cut off
[104:22] lending kind of like they did that I
[104:23] know I brought this up before but they
[104:24] they did some cutoffs during covet Banks
[104:26] stopped loaning over fifty thousand
[104:28] dollars for cars just as a security
[104:30] measure big Banks so if they start
[104:32] capping car loans and people are like
[104:34] the only way to get car loans is like 10
[104:36] interest or something you'll see that
[104:38] that bomb drop but until that I I for
[104:41] this crazy inventory again right right
[104:43] crazy I don't see the inventory going up
[104:45] on specialty cars we've already talked
[104:47] to all these brands that are making the
[104:48] fun cars and they're making them in
[104:49] limited quantities and they've done that
[104:51] on purpose to protect themselves by
[104:54] making sure that they have a supply
[104:55] chain for the next like two or three
[104:57] years for a limited quality not they
[104:58] don't make money off the cars being
[105:00] marked up they don't they are so
[105:02] conservative in product planning they
[105:03] don't want to build more cars and have
[105:05] them sit and not get sold they'd rather
[105:07] build less cars and guaranteed they get
[105:09] sold someone I hate to bring up the ZO6
[105:11] again but they they make 50 a day they
[105:14] make approximately between 44 to 50 a
[105:16] day like 150 c8s regular c8s every
[105:19] single day they're building a lot of
[105:21] cars but also there's only so many
[105:23] buyers out there and they've planned out
[105:25] the the building of these cars years in
[105:28] advance that's how you get a supply
[105:30] chain right type R is the same way you
[105:32] said 400 400 a month that's it maximum
[105:35] so that's I didn't do the math I think
[105:37] that's under 5 000 units a year that's
[105:39] it that's all they're doing and they
[105:41] have no ability to expand the capacity
[105:43] out because they've already set up the
[105:44] supply chain for that number for that
[105:47] specific year now granted whenever their
[105:49] renewal is they can up it or down it but
[105:51] really for the foreseeable future a lot
[105:53] of this stuff is locked in
[105:56] okay that's a depressing statement to
[105:58] say but it's the truth uh tentra oh wow
[106:02] the question holy [ __ ]
[106:04] uh I just uh tentra 002 I'm debating
[106:09] between a Golf GTI SC base model and a
[106:13] golf r
[106:15] uh is the r worth the extra ten thousand
[106:17] dollar premium mainly as a spirited
[106:19] daily driver no track I'm in the
[106:21] Northeast so five to ten snow days a
[106:23] year
[106:23] I would take a Golf R over a base GTI
[106:26] any day of the week particularly if you
[106:28] see snow yes it's a better car there's
[106:31] no question about it and in any way the
[106:34] Golf R is a better car yeah yeah so it's
[106:36] a lot more money but it's a better car
[106:38] and you're gonna have a much better
[106:39] Driving Experience there's no way you
[106:40] would drive those back to back and be
[106:42] like yeah I'm gonna go for the GTI
[106:45] um point of view garage patreon here
[106:47] thank you for being a patreon thank you
[106:49] for the 10 donation
[106:51] uh thank you for the content have a 2021
[106:54] STI that I enjoy but I'm but I'm
[106:56] undecided between trading it for a
[106:58] manual Supra Camaro ssle for track work
[107:00] which you suggest Camaro
[107:05] he's coming from a Subaru though
[107:08] Camaro
[107:09] come here is a better car but he's
[107:11] probably gonna like the Supra better
[107:16] I would I don't know I but the super
[107:18] isn't like more analog car and the
[107:20] Camaro is more analog
[107:22] you feel more
[107:25] the super though like an STI you can
[107:28] tune to your heart that's dude that's a
[107:30] really hard one you you literally have
[107:31] to drive them both you you have to drive
[107:33] them both to really to know you'll love
[107:36] the V8 sound and the gearbox which you
[107:40] won't love
[107:41] is the fact that it's harder to tune you
[107:44] can't make 10 000 horsepower like you
[107:46] can in the Supra and the styling of the
[107:48] Camaro is kind of [ __ ]
[107:53] that's all the birds man there are no
[107:54] nuts out there
[107:56] uh hope so hopefully point a point of
[107:59] view garage that helps you I you're
[108:01] never going to be able to tell in a test
[108:02] drive either but the basic inputs and
[108:05] whether or not you like the manual one
[108:06] card versus the other or the character
[108:08] of the engines you'll be able to figure
[108:09] out on a test drive
[108:11] um Justified
[108:13] uh for five dollars a launch for ndct
[108:16] Wow or a Lexus ES 350 I live in Los
[108:20] Angeles is it worth getting a sporty car
[108:22] or should I just get the reliable boat
[108:23] and sit in traffic
[108:26] uh by the way thanks for being a patreon
[108:28] and I know that the SS question is a
[108:30] hard one but yeah thank you I appreciate
[108:32] it uh
[108:34] they're these are like completely
[108:36] different cars
[108:38] I mean if you're sitting in traffic
[108:41] and you never drive the canyons and you
[108:44] never go out and have fun
[108:46] you're gonna feel a lot more calm in an
[108:48] ES350 you're going to feel constantly at
[108:52] on edge in that Elantra and like you're
[108:54] gonna you're gonna be hating life in it
[108:57] it's also going to ride much rougher
[108:59] like I don't care you know the launcher
[109:01] end doesn't ride bad but it's not a
[109:04] smooth car and you're going to regret it
[109:06] in traffic if that's all you do just get
[109:08] an ES350 and find some other fun weekend
[109:10] car
[109:11] uh Chris walks fast for two dollars
[109:14] thoughts on the whistling diesels
[109:15] Automotive Channel
[109:17] I know little about that guy and I've
[109:19] never watched this stuff
[109:20] so I have no opinion yeah I have I
[109:24] honestly I've never seen one of the
[109:25] videos before I know that's bad but I
[109:27] apologize to him personally so you know
[109:29] maybe it's I I'm sorry I don't know [ __ ]
[109:31] about it
[109:33] have you seen that dude's baloney
[109:35] Channel he just puts bologna in his
[109:37] mouth
[109:39] is that a thing yeah it's my sub Channel
[109:41] no I don't know
[109:44] edgy for once TT it doesn't really I
[109:49] could picture there's someone being a
[109:50] baloney Channel yeah that's true yeah no
[109:52] it's not so far-fetched anymore uh my
[109:55] favorite new weird YouTube channel that
[109:57] I enjoy it's funny because I don't
[109:58] really watch car content Caravan of
[110:01] garbage they're two Australian guys that
[110:03] sort of do a podcast and they talk about
[110:04] old films
[110:06] it's it's actually pretty [ __ ]
[110:08] amazing
[110:09] um yeah you'll have to send it to me
[110:11] yeah I think I think you would genuinely
[110:13] appreciate it it's like our perspective
[110:14] on Films is it like modern stuff or old
[110:17] stuff it's old new all the above oh it
[110:20] does it does everything yeah they talked
[110:21] about Blade the original blade film they
[110:24] Revisited they talk about production and
[110:25] some garbage trivia associated with it
[110:28] blade still has my favorite stupid quote
[110:31] it's what is it some [ __ ] are
[110:33] always still trying to ice skate uphill
[110:35] he has just some nonsensical stuff God
[110:37] that movie's incredible dude don't get
[110:39] me started with movies right now because
[110:40] you know what I'm gonna bring up
[110:43] Wild Side Oh my God all right uh TT uh
[110:47] for ten dollars thank you for the 10
[110:49] donation I ordered a ranger raptor have
[110:52] you guys heard anything about press
[110:54] Vehicles when you might review one how
[110:56] much owning a raptor will boost my T
[110:58] levels well we saw one in person while
[111:01] we were at The Ford Place
[111:03] and Mark slug I rather drive a Prius no
[111:06] I don't know I mean you don't really
[111:07] like trucks
[111:09] honestly I I don't know what it is man
[111:11] like I can't
[111:13] I just it's it's just another truck if
[111:16] it's half as good as the Bronco Raptor
[111:18] you will absolutely love it I don't know
[111:20] when the Press Drive is gonna happen we
[111:21] pitched them on a documentary film on
[111:23] that car I doubt they're gonna it's a
[111:25] Bronco with a truck bed right I mean I
[111:27] don't know what it is Bronco Raptor okay
[111:29] it's a Bronco Raptor with a bed
[111:31] Bronco raptor is great you'll probably
[111:33] love it yeah if you like the Bronco
[111:35] Raptor I mean it's going to be the same
[111:36] crap right yeah same not crap you know
[111:38] what I mean it's gonna be the same
[111:39] Dynamics I mean it's not gonna be that
[111:40] much different maybe with the back end
[111:42] kind of unloaded it might be more fun to
[111:44] drive like I don't know but how much
[111:46] different can it be uh we'll probably be
[111:49] at the Press launch probably Jack will
[111:51] be at the Press launch Mark will be
[111:53] asleep I'll be on the beach
[111:55] when will different size geese t-shirts
[111:57] be available uh not for a while I I need
[112:00] over ten thousand dollars to order them
[112:02] and that's not happening anytime soon
[112:03] love your content from MN from Minnesota
[112:06] your CX-5 video got me into crossover
[112:09] what are your thoughts on the new
[112:10] eight-speed transmission jack tell them
[112:13] uh even according to the engineers they
[112:16] wish they had more money to develop it
[112:17] it's not bad it's not great it's just
[112:20] there and there's some weird smoothness
[112:22] issues with initial takeoff both in the
[112:24] p-have and the regular inline six I like
[112:27] the P have better than the base in line
[112:29] six
[112:30] do I think the Turbo S is amazing I
[112:32] still probably would take the P have I
[112:34] think in a vehicle like that I know they
[112:37] wanted to have the deck you're going to
[112:38] see it on a review there's a lot great
[112:40] with that SUV there's some things I
[112:42] would definitely have done differently
[112:43] but I get why Mazda did what they did
[112:46] and I appreciate that they developed
[112:47] their eight-speed in-house is it a cf8
[112:49] speed absolutely not
[112:53] um Edgar thank you for the 10 Ron by the
[112:56] way thanks Jaden
[112:57] Daniel Dowd thoughts on tracking a car
[112:59] with traction control on versus off I
[113:02] want to learn to correct slides at high
[113:03] speed but the risks seem so on track
[113:05] compared to autocross don't learn to
[113:06] correct high-speed slides on track do it
[113:09] on an autographs
[113:11] I love drifting cars around and the way
[113:13] I got good at it is through autocrossing
[113:16] cars like up constantly upsetting cars
[113:19] and correcting them on an autocross
[113:20] taught me car control
[113:22] at least you know in a non going to a
[113:24] driving school setup and then obviously
[113:27] the bottom round things that are
[113:28] cemented the ability to slide cars
[113:29] around when you drive with traction
[113:31] control off but you drive it not so you
[113:33] can drift the car around
[113:35] I drive it to the car doesn't interfere
[113:36] so the problem with modern cars is the
[113:39] traction stability control system is
[113:41] always using the brakes always using the
[113:44] brakes so like what a natural behavior
[113:47] of the car would be with everything off
[113:49] where the car might rotate or understeer
[113:51] more if you don't have it off
[113:54] the car is just always electronically
[113:56] controlling it so it's not the natural
[113:57] state of what it is so I turn it off so
[114:00] I can feel what the car is doing and
[114:01] having its natural rotation you're using
[114:03] the mechanical grip all that stuff you
[114:05] know what's going on if you're trying to
[114:06] drive hard with stability control on it
[114:09] will destroy your brakes 100 percent
[114:11] pretty much if you drive fast and if
[114:13] you're driving it fast and trying to
[114:15] slide the car it will destroy the brakes
[114:17] and tires within it will I mean
[114:19] literally it's just turn it off but to
[114:22] Jack's Point don't try to slide the car
[114:24] around until you know how to do this
[114:26] quickly recover the car learn how to
[114:28] recover the car from a slide before
[114:30] you've tried sliding it because you need
[114:32] to what you need to understand is like
[114:34] Jack does this all the time you need to
[114:36] understand how to stop a slide from
[114:39] getting out of hand so when you reach
[114:41] that point of no return you need to know
[114:43] how to settle the car down and stop it
[114:45] so you don't wind up continuing that
[114:47] slide into a fixed object so you need to
[114:49] be quick hand moving the car or looping
[114:51] the car especially if there's other cars
[114:52] on it so learn how to do the slowest
[114:53] feed stuff first learn how to correct a
[114:56] car and how to stop a car and then learn
[114:58] how to spin it or like drift it yeah and
[115:00] I would like outside of what we do on
[115:02] camera there's no one else on track I
[115:04] would never drift a car on a track day
[115:06] with other cars on track it just seems a
[115:08] good way to totally well yeah and if you
[115:09] if you lose it that's the problem like
[115:12] if you have somebody behind you that
[115:13] doesn't understand what you're doing or
[115:15] doesn't kind of like comprehend like
[115:17] placement of a car and you go and loop
[115:20] it in front of somebody and they just
[115:21] T-Bone you I mean it's just yeah you
[115:23] ruined your day and somebody else yeah
[115:24] anyway learn how to do it at slow speeds
[115:26] first man and then always leave the
[115:29] stuff off unless you're a horrible
[115:30] driver if you're trying to drive with
[115:32] the stability control system on it's
[115:34] just you're not going to learn anything
[115:35] you're going to learn nothing yeah
[115:37] I
[115:39] like if you have a really Advanced
[115:41] stability control setup like some crazy
[115:43] NDM mode or the the the PTM and of that
[115:46] it will save your ass and you will be
[115:48] fast it depends I think from an old car
[115:51] perspective like your type R or an old
[115:53] car but like an older less sophisticated
[115:54] system turn everything off if it's a
[115:57] really competent system like when they
[115:59] the PTM pulls spark and timing and uses
[116:02] the diff it doesn't use the brakes to
[116:04] save your ass
[116:05] if you're not confident in the car is
[116:07] terrifying to drive then sure leave some
[116:09] of it on I won't I don't blame you for
[116:11] it but I wouldn't turn leave anything
[116:13] totally on this is a complicated topic
[116:17] it's it's a complicated topic you can't
[116:19] learn how to drive a car with all the
[116:20] systems interfering because you don't
[116:21] know what the car's doing and you don't
[116:23] know what it's doing for you and you
[116:24] don't know like where the limits of a
[116:26] car is if it's constantly breaking for
[116:28] you so I mean again you have to do some
[116:31] type of driving school in a controlled
[116:33] environment where you're not putting
[116:34] your car yourself or somebody else at
[116:35] risk and a lot of that is starting at
[116:37] slower speed Maneuvers learning the
[116:39] learning how to stop slides and all the
[116:41] safety stuff before you go high speed
[116:43] and try to spin a car
[116:45] um and that's where I'll leave it but I
[116:47] I guess we can argue that for a while
[116:48] Tim thank you for your thirty dollars
[116:50] collectively between both your donations
[116:52] yes Jack and
[116:54] check Joe it's a guy who swings into

[117:05] pain by the way guys you rock well thank
[117:07] you Tim Brown I appreciate it and
[117:09] continue to spam us on on Instagram it's
[117:11] it always gives me a slight chuckle
[117:14] Edgar thank you for the ten dollars
[117:16] what's the ideal Poor Man's four-door
[117:18] fun daily thank you wild frames again
[117:21] thank you Tim Brown thank you uh for for
[117:25] doing that
[117:27] um we're gonna try to get through all
[117:29] the last questions that we have please
[117:31] stop donating Chen please tell everybody
[117:33] to stop donating we'd like to go home
[117:35] and see your families
[117:36] and hopefully you guys have appreciated
[117:38] or enjoyed I don't want to see my family
[117:40] I want to edit I need to edit otherwise
[117:42] you're not going to have a video on
[117:44] Monday of artwork all right let's let's
[117:46] uh let's start going through these
[117:48] faster Mark let's do it
[117:50] uh poor what's the best four-door fun
[117:54] daily for someone who doesn't have a lot
[117:55] of money
[117:58] Civic SI yeah probably like an older
[118:01] City yeah I would say so that's pretty I
[118:04] don't know how much they are but yeah
[118:05] that would be good like like a K20
[118:07] equipped one that's a great inexpensive
[118:09] four-door car
[118:10] uh Fiesta ST Focus ST
[118:14] uh yeah if he has to St I don't like the
[118:16] fiest would be far more fun uh Nacho
[118:19] Libre for ten dollars what shot is the
[118:22] hardest to capture slash edit with
[118:24] interviews probably
[118:27] no I don't think so is that it to edit I
[118:30] mean well depends on what the interviews
[118:32] are is it some canned trash the hardest
[118:35] one is going to be that effects because
[118:36] it's in a different language
[118:38] um but I I would prefer to sit and
[118:41] interview somebody than standing out on
[118:43] track hanging out of the back of a car
[118:44] trying to get like all what's the
[118:46] hardest to shoot
[118:47] the track stuff yeah that's really good
[118:49] it's it's really hard it's like it's a
[118:51] lot it's just insane amounts of work and
[118:53] it's exhausting yeah it's rough dangling
[118:56] on the back of a car to get some of
[118:57] these shots I think the most frustrating
[118:59] part about these track things is you
[119:00] would think oh this is going to be so
[119:02] much fun because we have cars on track
[119:03] like I get when that was a perfect
[119:05] example we were rushing to get the
[119:07] Integra video done I'm like I'm gonna go
[119:09] spin some laps in the type R to set
[119:10] times and get data and I spent
[119:14] like six minutes stressed out trying to
[119:16] do it and then I got one lap in the
[119:18] integral one which is one lap and that
[119:20] was the that was all it was and anytime
[119:23] we do these big track comparisons you
[119:24] don't even get to drive the only thing
[119:26] you're doing is shooting these cars like
[119:28] not you're just trying to get every
[119:29] single shot it's just a time crunch so
[119:32] um I would say that the track stuff and
[119:35] then trying to edit uh the story stuff
[119:38] the Z06 video that you wanted to do with
[119:40] the factory was really really hard the
[119:43] the other comparison to the GT3 was
[119:46] really really hard that was it probably
[119:48] took two to three weeks to do that video
[119:50] just editing yeah it was a nightmare
[119:52] speaking of edits when you open the hood
[119:54] and speak about engine suspension parts
[119:55] can you please somehow highlight the
[119:56] parts you were actually talking about
[119:57] some of us don't know what control arms
[119:59] are etc etc uh we will do our best yeah
[120:03] the straight answer is why I don't do it
[120:06] and it's not that I know that I
[120:07] shouldn't do it is because I never have
[120:08] enough time to go through and that's my
[120:10] fault I'll I will admit that it's
[120:13] Corner cutting because I've gotten lazy
[120:16] with it and I don't want to take any
[120:17] more time to do it but if it's a
[120:19] technical video I will do my best to do
[120:21] it I've been working in After Effects
[120:23] and other stuff more recently to do
[120:25] graphical things that I need to do so
[120:27] you will see more of it the last uh oh
[120:31] [ __ ] super bash for ten dollars can you
[120:34] hear about the Integra Type S better
[120:35] than your type R better daily the
[120:36] Embargo drops Monday Honda will skin Us
[120:39] Alive yeah I can't talk about the
[120:41] driving part of it um you'll find
[120:43] everything else honestly you know on
[120:44] Monday yeah I'm sorry
[120:46] um the last for five dollars love the
[120:48] technical side content love to listen to
[120:50] your views while at work genuinely helps
[120:52] me to pass the time I work uh work 15
[120:54] hour shifts Monday through Friday man
[120:56] thank you that's a lot of work
[120:59] um yeah thank you man I'm glad we bring
[121:02] you at least a little bit of Joy
[121:03] hopefully you get fit one week on or one
[121:06] week off or something speed reader nine
[121:08] are you guys going to the Run sport
[121:09] reunion at Laguna in September probably
[121:12] not we typically don't travel for car
[121:14] shows just being honest uh thank you for
[121:16] the 10 speed reader it's not that we
[121:18] don't want to go we just don't have time
[121:19] if this was in a different life right
[121:21] now or like out of this I'd probably be
[121:23] more involved in that when I can
[121:24] actually enjoy some of it versus this
[121:26] grind that we're in
[121:28] blogmon332 is the vsst worth current
[121:31] market uh oh I would still have my
[121:35] uh 2016 Mazda 3 2 liter six-speed
[121:39] automatic as my daily yeah if they're
[121:40] not super expensive the fiesta sees a
[121:42] lot of fun man
[121:43] the same guy who talked about the 350r
[121:45] with us he dailies if he SSC because he
[121:47] loves it that much yeah that that it is
[121:49] those cars are really fun they're like
[121:51] there's not much else like them it's
[121:53] like the modern equivalent of like a
[121:55] really hyper aggressive CRX where you
[121:58] have spring rates of like 3 000 pounds
[122:00] it's just such an edgy fun car to drive
[122:03] uh your content uh iframes for 10 your
[122:06] content is inspiring in so many ways
[122:08] well you see a manual F-Type v6s rear
[122:12] wheel drive review also Emmanuel 987
[122:14] asks if Jack can somehow drag Mark into
[122:16] another Porsche the likelihood of
[122:19] getting a V6 F-Type manual is like
[122:21] non-existent I'd love to do a video in
[122:23] one we're probably never going to do it
[122:24] the 987 s the problem is the GT4 is so
[122:29] similar
[122:30] uh it's a 7 or 981 98 sorry 981s
[122:35] maybe it's just the the GT4 is so
[122:38] similar and we've done so many Porsche
[122:39] videos it's almost a derivative I think
[122:41] you know eventually we're going to go
[122:42] back to trying to find some older cars
[122:45] to do stuff because the new car stuff is
[122:46] just it's just so difficult to do some
[122:49] of these projects I think we're going to
[122:51] go back to it
[122:52] um just keep reminding us if you could
[122:54] Tim Brown for two dollars Boss 302 uh
[122:58] how about a Cobra R I love that car chin
[123:01] face who's our moderator loves that car
[123:03] if I could do a video on a cobra arm we
[123:05] can make it as ridiculous as our
[123:07] original hours the independent rear
[123:09] right I'm pretty sure it's independent
[123:10] rear and a giant wing on the back it was
[123:13] the same body as The Terminator
[123:15] Alpha back Brackley thank you again what
[123:18] if what viewer question or comment
[123:19] really most impacted your approach and
[123:22] career
[123:25] man that's a hard one what viewer
[123:27] comment here what viewer question I
[123:31] gotta give that one thought I think we
[123:32] both do like I don't understand the
[123:34] question what question did someone ask
[123:37] you that made you change your approach
[123:40] or impacted your career
[123:44] that yeah that's there's not one uh
[123:48] that's really hard though
[123:51] yeah I I would want to say to Jack's
[123:54] point I'd have to think about that more
[123:55] because I don't just want to give you a
[123:57] half-assed answer I think a lot of it
[123:58] has to do with the people that we talk
[124:00] to like viewers obviously in these
[124:02] questions that we get and adversity I
[124:05] think I would say that more as a general
[124:07] statement is like if I screw something
[124:09] up and somebody comes back and says you
[124:11] did this wrong or you should have done
[124:12] this
[124:14] um or even positive feedback I look at
[124:16] that as a sum or a whole of like how can
[124:18] I do things differently
[124:20] um
[124:22] I I think a lot of what I get feedback
[124:25] from is people's experiences where I can
[124:28] learn from people's experiences of what
[124:29] works and hasn't worked and what they're
[124:31] going through because that's that's
[124:34] definitely more helpful for big picture
[124:35] so I get a because you get in your own
[124:38] head I think all of us get in our own
[124:39] head of like Our Daily Grind but if you
[124:41] can hear other people's experiences and
[124:42] have them share like what they're going
[124:43] through it makes things much easier to
[124:47] think like oh okay this person's going
[124:49] through that or how are they dealing
[124:50] with it you've learned these tidbits of
[124:52] how they've dealt with situations that
[124:54] you maybe have never thought of so I
[124:56] think it's just the overall interaction
[124:57] with people that really helps and good
[124:59] and bad comments as well so many people
[125:01] have been asking us for is an NPC car
[125:04] shootout Mark I know I've wanted to do
[125:06] that forever the dream what what's the
[125:08] dream lineup for an NPC shootout is it a
[125:11] tracks an ecosport
[125:13] Equinox yeah like Equinox ecosport uh
[125:18] tracks there's got to be some other
[125:20] piles in there
[125:22] uh we never did in uh Luke thank you for
[125:24] the five dollars the reason we never did
[125:26] an all track Sport Wagon review is
[125:28] because we never had one as a press car
[125:31] it's just simply that I mean I think
[125:33] it's a great car A friend of mine
[125:34] personally actually owns one when she
[125:35] proceeded to blow up
[125:38] Kevin if you're watching uh
[125:41] you're an idiot
[125:42] uh what is the next question we have
[125:46] holy [ __ ] we have a lot of questions
[125:49] loud oh God I thought you like questions
[125:52] I do I just I need to find where we're
[125:54] at in the questions uh uh Herbert
[125:56] Martinez for five dollars currently own
[125:58] a 2018 Focus RS considering a trade
[126:00] anything in the current class and Market
[126:02] worth the swap for example Golf R or
[126:04] type R the only thing close to the Focus
[126:07] RS in my opinion is the gr Corolla but
[126:11] you the type R is better and the
[126:12] elantraan is also great
[126:14] yeah just put it in that list of order I
[126:16] I would drive a focus or sorry I drive a
[126:19] gr Corolla first and then the type R the
[126:21] golf bar is way too soft gladio 2 for
[126:24] five dollars if the WRX is a rally car
[126:26] meant to go off-road wise reportedly so
[126:29] stiff shouldn't it be soft to make
[126:32] off-roading smoother
[126:33] the streetcar is not a rally car
[126:36] hashtag
[126:38] marketing
[126:39] that's it it's it's zero percent a rally
[126:43] car I mean you could take it off-road
[126:45] and you'll end up on a tow truck
[126:48] will do a better job going off-road to
[126:50] recover you uh next question mark
[126:54] bullion boys Andrea uh isk 750 keep up
[127:00] the great work bullion boys thank you
[127:02] I'm sorry I asked I I never thought it
[127:05] was part of his name thank you 750 isk
[127:10] Andrew thank you Michael turning do you
[127:13] and Jack have more uh do you jack and
[127:16] Mark have kids we have kids together
[127:17] we've adopted a small family adopted
[127:20] Jack's Corvette
[127:22] we have Corvettes uh where uh just to be
[127:27] straight about this stuff I don't like
[127:29] to get into the personal life thing it's
[127:30] no no offense honestly just in a public
[127:32] forum like I'll talk to you somebody
[127:33] one-on-one about stuff but I don't I
[127:35] don't like talking about uh our personal
[127:37] life except for your child Diversity
[127:39] Program yeah with one kid in every state
[127:41] well yeah and I'm having some trouble
[127:43] with that recently is this that why
[127:45] you're bankrupt yeah pretty much the
[127:46] payments are getting out of hand I
[127:48] thought it was a good idea at first I
[127:49] mean Elon Musk is trying it but I
[127:51] definitely don't have Elon muscles Al
[127:52] Pacino and uh Robert Redford Robert Joni
[127:56] no yeah De Niro De Niro and uh Al Pacino
[127:59] both have inspired you to have kids in
[128:01] your late 80s yeah I hope yeah no thank
[128:04] you the last thing I want to do is that
[128:05] docs why docs the lamanca thank you for
[128:09] the five dollars why are the LX 570s and
[128:12] LCS still so expensive all the used ones
[128:15] I don't know because it's Lexus pretty
[128:18] much yeah I mean it's there aren't a lot
[128:20] of them and people love them the the LC
[128:22] is a good question because we're looking
[128:23] at the numbers of production and the the
[128:26] numbers they were supposed to sell 450 a
[128:29] month that was their target when they
[128:30] made the LLC and it's there were months
[128:32] where it did it but overall they're
[128:34] lucky if they sell like 100 a month so
[128:36] the inventory is really low and the
[128:38] people that have them are usually
[128:39] holding on to them or you have to wait
[128:41] for leases to come up yeah it just sucks
[128:44] I I agree they're way too expensive Sony
[128:46] Triple C thank you for the fifty dollars
[128:48] yes Tony Triple C thanks for the 49.99
[128:50] this guy couldn't even afford to give me
[128:52] the extra value he's an [ __ ] no Tony
[128:54] thank you very much thanks man I
[128:56] appreciate it you guys set the standard
[128:58] best car reviewers period thank you
[128:59] given the e-fuel efforts say it's
[129:01] perfected tomorrow do you think any ice
[129:03] manufacturer would continue once EB
[129:05] becomes the norm exotic and or more
[129:07] attainable brands
[129:09] yes I think as soon as there's some
[129:12] alternate fuel that works you're gonna
[129:14] go right back to having ridiculous
[129:15] internal combustion cars because these
[129:17] companies already have insane
[129:19] development history and experience with
[129:21] doing so so to throw all that away after
[129:23] 100 years or whatever it is
[129:26] um like yeah it's they're going to want
[129:29] to do it immediately they'll be like
[129:30] yeah who's going to be the first person
[129:31] to make another thousand horsepower
[129:33] internal combustion they'll be high
[129:34] dollar cars yeah they will but it'll
[129:37] trickle its way down to normal cars
[129:38] again I mean I hope it happens
[129:40] uh thoughts and reliable Ethan thank you
[129:42] for the ten dollars thanks I thought
[129:44] some reliability between the Civic SI
[129:46] versus the type R like two liter versus
[129:50] 1.5
[129:51] more displacement less PSI for the win
[129:54] is the two liter more reliable than the
[129:56] one five
[129:57] uh yes I think
[129:59] the initial 1.5 is with the dilution
[130:01] issue dilution issue
[130:04] um but the the 1.5s are more tunable you
[130:06] can make a lot of power out of them but
[130:08] they're still like the the issue with it
[130:10] is you have cooling problems then right
[130:11] I mean it's it wasn't designed to be a
[130:14] performance application it was designed
[130:16] to be an Eco setup so you have to do all
[130:18] this side work to make it more reliable
[130:19] whereas the two liter was already that
[130:22] already built for cooling and at least
[130:23] to a certain extent so reliability there
[130:26] I'd take the two liter uh mobster for
[130:28] two dollars I want to buy a B12 Aston
[130:30] Martin which do you like I like all of
[130:32] them as long as they have a manual
[130:35] DBS and V12 manager yeah I mean that's
[130:38] where that's where you spend the money
[130:39] on Aston is that type of thing Uh Kevin
[130:42] Patrick goulette
[130:44] uh cool hva Scirocco in the news this
[130:48] week question could you see a 18 GT V6
[130:52] with similar performance mods as an HPA
[130:55] Scirocco sorry not Soro Scirocco a
[130:57] Sleeper Car cool and not to be a thief
[131:00] magnet here in La you guys rock thanks
[131:03] I've been the facade gtv6 the problem is
[131:06] I've never driven one I think the
[131:07] chirocco is really cool but it's really
[131:08] just a
[131:10] to golf
[131:13] it would be a cool Sleeper Car
[131:16] but besides gtv6 I think this the the
[131:19] Passat has a really sleep regard aspect
[131:21] to it it's like it's sleepers you can
[131:24] get nobody would give it a second look
[131:25] and it would be a fun car I mean it's
[131:27] still based on all the same cars that
[131:28] are good from VW if you do the right
[131:30] stuff to it I just don't know man that's
[131:32] that's a tricky call if you want to
[131:34] spend the money on doing all that but
[131:37] there is something to be said about
[131:38] sleeper cars they're for sure that's why
[131:41] people like things like the Taurus Show
[131:42] yeah yeah for yeah I would
[131:45] I could see it definitely Luke Kramer
[131:48] for ten dollars hey guys if both are
[131:50] sixty thousand dollars would I get a
[131:52] manual Supra or a manual V8 R8 with
[131:55] higher mileage coming from a 10th gen
[131:57] Civic SI
[131:59] manual Lamborghini guard was my dream
[132:01] car and the super scares me with
[132:02] rear-wheel drive
[132:04] uh
[132:06] man there's a way can you afford to fix
[132:09] your manual V8 R8 if when it goes bad
[132:12] that becomes your question you can't
[132:13] it's gonna cost you sixty thousand
[132:16] dollars
[132:17] yeah the thing is when you come from
[132:18] front wheel drive you know to rear-wheel
[132:20] drive you essentially if you're driving
[132:22] like a monkey it's not going to go well
[132:24] it's it's going to be hard you're gonna
[132:26] you're gonna have to really switch your
[132:27] mentality and you got to do driving
[132:28] stuff you got to do auto garage or
[132:30] driving schools with it to learn how to
[132:31] to control the rear wheel drive part but
[132:33] once you do it's it's a really good
[132:35] skill set to know how to wheel a
[132:37] front-wheel drive car because there's
[132:38] some skill to it and you know when you
[132:40] switch over you'll you'll be very very
[132:42] happy that you did let's just put it
[132:44] that way the manual V8 R8 to be clear is
[132:46] cooler than the Supra but okay only
[132:48] afford sixty thousand dollars it means
[132:49] you probably can't afford to fix it
[132:51] exactly
[132:53] um
[132:56] oh crap
[133:00] nah man I'm sorry let me find it
[133:04] find it that's my fault I've done it
[133:07] again mark
[133:09] oh I found it killer Oz I sold my m2c
[133:12] and bought a gr86 was because of you
[133:13] guys thanks that being said should I
[133:15] drop my oil pan for our TV and switch it
[133:17] to 5W30 oil before I track it
[133:22] probably yes though the biggest problem
[133:24] killer Oz with the oil pan in that car
[133:27] is not even just the RTV it's that it
[133:28] can't maintain oil pressure and big
[133:31] sweepers so
[133:33] I mean
[133:35] you could roll the dice if the car is
[133:37] otherwise unmodified some dealers will
[133:39] warranty it if it pops some don't they
[133:42] should all warranty it
[133:44] um but at the minimum yeah drop the RTV
[133:47] and swap the five dollars I will say you
[133:49] one other thing if you're not going to
[133:50] drop the pan and do the RTV do not
[133:52] switch to 5 30. stay to 0 20 because
[133:54] you're gonna now you're gonna have a
[133:56] thicker oil that can't flow through the
[133:59] pickup if it's blocked or there's our TV
[134:01] so don't switch the oil until you get
[134:03] all that silicone out and maybe just as
[134:06] a safety precaution run 020 after you do
[134:08] the RTV run it for a couple thousand
[134:11] miles and then dump the oil again before
[134:13] you switch to a different oil weight
[134:15] just as a safety measure mobs you know
[134:17] and if you are going to keep the car
[134:18] gonna get an oil cooler get a baffled
[134:21] Oil pan this is only if you're tracking
[134:22] right you talk about tracking right if
[134:24] you're if you're doing Street stuff
[134:25] don't worry about it yeah mobster for
[134:27] two dollars favorite band brand of
[134:29] hemorrhoid ointment I got a I got a big
[134:32] one what what's your favorite what's
[134:35] your favorite hemorrhoid green uh Mark
[134:37] I'm not quite at your your illustrious
[134:39] age yet so I got a couple more years to
[134:41] worry Pro tip
[134:43] Walmart generic
[134:45] I mean you're gonna save two dollars a
[134:48] tube and you're gonna be blowing through
[134:49] that stuff no no ability some rubber
[134:52] bands and just get rid of them
[134:55] god dude thanks so much for your content
[134:58] thinking about an M2 comp for a fun
[135:00] weekend car mainly comparing to an E46
[135:03] M3 and an e86 z4m Coupe cheaper but no
[135:07] warranty thoughts and considerations
[135:10] uh the z4m coupe is a badass car
[135:13] I would take that over an M2 comp any
[135:15] day of the week
[135:16] wouldn't you
[135:19] yeah I had to think about it because I
[135:22] just I don't know I don't I've never
[135:24] liked the M2 I know everybody loves the
[135:26] m2s but I just I feel like yeah to your
[135:29] point the z4m is a far more unique Car
[135:32] experience and the engine's incredible
[135:34] yes
[135:35] oh man I read this question earlier and
[135:38] it's a ct5e black Wing my my pants are
[135:40] getting tight mark Josh burnington thank
[135:43] you for the ten dollars or Bennington I
[135:45] apologize does the ct5e Black Wing
[135:47] really have the capability to replace
[135:49] two or more specialized experiences for
[135:52] example a hot hatch for every day and
[135:54] dedicated race car like an Exige for
[135:57] track work no it does not it does not
[136:00] have the ability to replace an Exige it
[136:03] does have the ability to replace a hot
[136:05] hatch and like a a luxury car it's not a
[136:10] track car it is a big boat but if you
[136:13] have the money to drive one every single
[136:15] day and you can drive it like a monkey
[136:16] there is no better car than the ct5v
[136:19] Black Wing
[136:20] I would not agree with you but I you're
[136:23] wrong
[136:25] supercharged it's another one of these
[136:27] huge cars that relies on every single
[136:29] electronic piece to keep it going fast
[136:31] on the track yeah you just turn
[136:33] everything off no I'm just saying it's
[136:35] like it's so fast on a track it just it
[136:38] is bewildering but it's using all the
[136:40] electronics to make it go fast but it
[136:42] does not feel good to do it it's funny
[136:44] you're gonna set a fast lap time but
[136:47] you're going to look at your tires and
[136:48] your brakes and you're like
[136:49] why did those go away so quick
[136:51] to spend five thousand dollars to do
[136:54] that after like three times at the track
[136:56] Mark I went around turn one
[136:59] in the ct5v black one with everything
[137:02] off and I could not see behind me
[137:04] because there was so much smoke and I
[137:06] don't care about anything else you're
[137:07] saying other than the fact that that car
[137:09] will do that while driving it flat out I
[137:12] literally felt like I was in a yacht
[137:13] going flat out down the track it was an
[137:16] incredible experience
[137:18] my GM microchip is just a throbbing but
[137:21] I [ __ ] love that car so much so much
[137:25] this guy's nuts
[137:27] it's not that good
[137:29] it's good but it's not that it's
[137:31] incredible just it's not exactly it's
[137:33] gonna replace an exesia on the track I'm
[137:35] sorry even though it's slow it's
[137:38] Nothing's Gonna feel like that
[137:40] no and Dr Grover I did not have to pay
[137:43] for the brakes and the tires after that
[137:45] that's why I think it's amazing the
[137:46] reason of course yeah you had to pay 40
[137:48] wouldn't be doing that oh [ __ ]
[137:52] oh [ __ ] no streaming oh there we go
[137:56] let's see if we can get this done in 10
[137:58] minutes Mark we only have a couple more
[137:59] questions I grew up around thank you for
[138:02] the twenty dollars uh I grew up with a
[138:05] family of Toyotas and Lexus and I just
[138:08] bought a loaded is-350 over an A4 TLX
[138:11] which I know you guys think are
[138:12] technically Superior what are your
[138:14] thoughts on spending money on this kind
[138:16] of emotional connection to a brand new
[138:17] style
[138:23] I'll let you leave this one Mark I think
[138:25] I I really like the is-350 I don't have
[138:28] a problem with that I would rather have
[138:29] it over it well the TLX is a tough one
[138:32] uh just because I think the all-wheel
[138:34] drive system is really good but there's
[138:36] something about again it's about this
[138:38] Toyota
[138:39] it's the Toyota Lexus mentality you're a
[138:42] different person if you like these
[138:43] because you're valuing different things
[138:45] about it that's why I like the is-350 I
[138:47] think it's a unique car it's not trying
[138:48] to be the other cars
[138:51] um what about the emotional part of like
[138:52] I think there's a lot of emotion to that
[138:54] car it's not the best engine it's not
[138:56] the gearbox but there's something unique
[138:57] about it there's something uniquely
[138:59] Japanese and Toyota about it and there's
[139:02] that's an intangible about buying cars
[139:04] you know people don't just buy it
[139:05] because like you know it goes around a
[139:07] corner faster it's quick in a straight
[139:09] line or whatever that that's why I like
[139:10] it it's not really you're feeling
[139:12] something else that's not measurable
[139:15] um
[139:17] but yeah that's what I'm saying oh
[139:19] that's all I'm gonna say
[139:21] George Ivan thank you for the twenty
[139:23] dollars the best thing about your
[139:24] channel is not is not Mark's granddad's
[139:27] story
[139:30] but honesty and transparity transparency
[139:32] you guys bring to auto reviews thank you
[139:35] for everything you do much love from
[139:36] Texas George thank you very much for the
[139:39] twenty dollars yeah and the kind words
[139:40] man yeah thank you obviously uh if
[139:42] you're going back and watching the
[139:43] beginning when I talked about my
[139:44] grandfather I you're gonna have to
[139:46] obviously not take my word seriously
[139:48] because I think I mixed up what I said
[139:50] about the best thing that happened to us
[139:51] it was a stroke that's not what I meant
[139:54] it was the story behind it
[139:59] yeah no anyway that's what happens when
[140:02] you do this stuff live but anyway nobody
[140:04] cares it's it's still funny Extinction
[140:06] 575 you guys are phenomenal thank you
[140:09] for the hundred dollars by the way that
[140:11] is a big boy donation uh you are very
[140:14] kind for doing that uh we can never
[140:16] repay you but um we'll pay you when
[140:19] we're extinct we're gonna be extinct
[140:22] soon thank you so much I appreciate it

[140:25] second car dc5 Integra and became a car
[140:27] person in general really hope you guys
[140:29] keep up the amazing work we are
[140:31] definitely trying extinctions so thank
[140:33] you very much for the 100 donation yeah
[140:35] thank you uh be curious to see what you
[140:36] think of the upcoming uh uh Integra and
[140:39] Honda videos and stuff I don't know if
[140:41] you're gonna like the new ones but
[140:43] um I'm glad that you found the bug and
[140:45] hopefully you don't go broke with your
[140:46] car hobby uh not your Libre for ten
[140:49] dollars so a software engineer and a
[140:51] mechanical engineer are you looking for
[140:52] an ee
[140:54] um not yet if if I somehow land uh 10
[140:58] million dollars with the sponsorships
[140:59] I'll have you electrically engineer all
[141:01] over cameras
[141:02] but no honestly not sure thank you for
[141:04] the ten dollars yeah I if if I had extra
[141:08] money I would have so much more help
[141:10] definitely Doug for two dollars you uh
[141:13] own an ATV or motorcycle anymore I used
[141:16] to own a motorcycle Mark doesn't own
[141:17] either yeah I don't own any I'm trying
[141:20] to pair back my uh except you own how
[141:22] many [ __ ] uh snowmobiles and uh
[141:25] skidoos do you own that's I'm not even
[141:27] jet skis I'm not getting into that I
[141:30] mean I told Jack about how I was gonna
[141:33] probably kick the bucket but I don't
[141:34] want to get into that story because it's
[141:36] kind of actually kind of gets personal
[141:38] so I don't want to go there he his dream
[141:40] in life is to ride a jet ski around to
[141:42] make around McHenry to go to Blarney's
[141:45] and then get it stuck on a sand barge
[141:48] and die of a brain aneurysm that just
[141:50] fall fall asleep or just pass out and
[141:52] fall off my jet ski so they can recover
[141:55] my body and my last thing is my lime
[141:57] green vest going to a wet t-shirt
[142:00] contest at Blarney's
[142:03] uh Brazen rain Shut Up And Take My Money
[142:06] well Brazen thank you for the two
[142:07] dollars Marshall D for five dollars
[142:10] uh what do you guys think about mid odds
[142:13] to Mid 2010 Maseratis like the quantity
[142:17] and the Gran Turismo with the ZF
[142:20] um I've heard there's sneaky good picks
[142:25] all right I will tell you my Maserati
[142:27] story Mark Shut Up And Take My Money
[142:28] thanks for the two dollars bruh you have
[142:31] a good Maserati story what's the
[142:34] I keep I keep uh going back to these old
[142:36] ones man it's the last our very last
[142:39] question oh wow okay cool
[142:41] uh Marshall D 2010 Maseratis like the
[142:45] Quattroporte and the Gran Turismo the
[142:47] Cooper the synonym with the ZF I've
[142:49] heard they're good picks would you ever
[142:51] own a 20 odds Maserati
[142:59] I don't know like it's weird like some
[143:02] of these cars if I was in a different
[143:04] place in my life I probably would just
[143:06] this just to do it like some of these
[143:09] not those specifically
[143:12] um
[143:14] the quadrupt Quattroporte and the
[143:18] I don't know man what do you think would
[143:20] you drive those
[143:21] if you just had like throwaway money for
[143:24] some of this stuff would you ever buy it
[143:27] I have no emotional connection
[143:29] whatsoever to the Maserati watch
[143:31] reporting that's a problem I don't know
[143:32] man I think the problem with those cars
[143:34] is there's so much money to run while
[143:35] they sound great they're not a sports
[143:37] car experience
[143:39] I don't know yeah that's a tough one I
[143:41] see them once in a while and I'm like
[143:44] um I'm like there's something about him
[143:47] but not enough for me to to go in on
[143:50] something like that
[143:51] apparently we missed someone's question
[143:53] how dare you I probably deleted it on
[143:56] accident
[143:57] uh it's a question from frames wild
[144:00] frames back
[144:01] a while ago
[144:03] uh if I didn't answer your question or
[144:06] if we didn't answer your questions find
[144:07] us on it on Instagram or via our email
[144:10] link to ask them away so
[144:13] um if we didn't answer something I
[144:15] apologize and I will personally kill
[144:17] chin face for missing his question
[144:23] but with that I also wanted to thank all
[144:25] of you guys for sticking around for as
[144:27] long as you have this was an over two
[144:30] and a half hour process
[144:32] and is there anything else you want to
[144:34] talk about Mark before we wrap this up
[144:35] so you can get back to editing the
[144:37] world's longest Integra type yeah I
[144:39] gotta finish unfortunately the only
[144:41] reason I'm not keeping this going longer
[144:43] is I have to finish editing tonight and
[144:44] I'm gonna be up super late
[144:46] um there's one more question that came
[144:47] in
[144:49] um from Michael any thoughts on the type
[144:51] R as your ownership matures I like the
[144:53] car more now than when I got it which is
[144:55] a good sign I hope that I'm able to keep
[144:57] it
[144:58] um I've really enjoyed driving it and I
[145:00] want to keep it nice
[145:02] uh it's it's just uh it's the same thing
[145:05] in the review if you watch the last
[145:07] review I'm gonna have another video
[145:08] about like the just the this car itself
[145:11] so I'll I don't want to bore you with a
[145:13] lot of it but yeah I do like it a lot I
[145:15] I've liked it
[145:16] as a regular car
[145:18] um every time I get it and I really
[145:19] enjoy the drive it's it's comfortable it
[145:21] does everything that a normal car does
[145:23] and it's somewhat fun to drive and a lot
[145:25] of it has to do with the manual trans
[145:26] I'll be honest like getting back in a
[145:29] car with a good manual transmission
[145:30] again is is definitely a big deal
[145:34] um so that's that's kind of where I'm at
[145:36] with it
[145:38] okay
[145:39] well with that I uh just any closing
[145:42] thoughts anything you know to cover as
[145:44] we're going into the next couple weeks
[145:46] what do we got coming out so its Monday
[145:48] and ticker Type S is Monday Friday is
[145:50] probably MDX Type S or wrap-up video on
[145:53] that following week will be Mazda 3 wrap
[145:56] up so one of the earlier questions was
[145:59] uh Mazda 3 and then so MDX Type S final
[146:04] Integra Type S video launch video
[146:08] cx90 oh yeah cx90 Mazda3 Mazda3 Subaru
[146:12] Crosstrek we have a cross track we're
[146:14] shooting a Lamborghini at the end of the
[146:16] month we finish out our Mustang project
[146:18] next month is there anything else we the
[146:21] X7 I have to finish an X7 video like
[146:23] ownership experience with it but that's
[146:25] that's about it and then I have to edit
[146:26] the NSX video which is going to take me
[146:28] over a month yeah so with that guys I'm
[146:31] gonna let Mark get back to and uh
[146:34] uh editing the Integra Type S I will
[146:37] pound my chest for you young barbecue
[146:40] the next time I have a V8 powered
[146:42] vehicle to pound my chest for you in but
[146:44] with that I think we'll end this
[146:46] broadcast yeah thank you so much
[146:47] everybody for coming in I know this is a
[146:49] big time commitment and hopefully it was
[146:51] somewhat entertaining you got to learn
[146:53] something from it and uh we're gonna try
[146:55] to do another one of these next month
[146:57] where I have more time once we're done
[146:58] with these projects we'll be able to
[147:00] cover more content and obviously getting
[147:02] to more relay questions and stories and
[147:04] stuff of like if we have a little more
[147:06] time I think when we originally
[147:07] scheduled this we thought we'd have more
[147:09] than two hours to talk to you guys yeah
[147:10] and our plan is to do this more often
[147:12] probably
[147:14] or later we'll probably pull you guys to
[147:17] figure out what day makes the most sense
[147:19] to do uh live stream so we can hit up as
[147:22] many people as possible sometimes we do
[147:24] it when we get five or six thousand
[147:26] people watching or sometimes we get a
[147:27] thousand so I want to make sure we can
[147:28] get as many people together to answer
[147:31] your questions at once if that makes
[147:33] sense I I actually really enjoy doing
[147:35] this I know it just takes forever and
[147:36] I'm sure most people are bored but I
[147:38] this is like the best this is the
[147:40] closest I get from interacting to people
[147:42] on here
[147:43] yeah honestly because when when are we
[147:45] ever going to get to to do anything
[147:47] uh the the meats we just don't have time
[147:49] to go to meats and stuff so it kind of
[147:51] sucks
[147:52] but anyway yeah thanks again guys thanks
[147:54] again see you later
