I love how Jay Leno isn't just some rich dude who owns a ton of cool cars just because he can. He actually loves and understands the engineering and historical value behind them! I'm not one to get "star struck" over famous people at all but I would love to meet him! Keep up the awesome work educating and entertaining us car nuts like yourself Jay!
+Mahatma Coat I never really watched the show, but I can guess that I've spent at least 50 hours watching his videos on youtube. I think I know him more as the car guy named Jay Leno, than the celebrity, which is a little weird I suppose oO or maybe not, I don't know, and never really think about it, lol. ^^
Yep as a tv show host he was good and everything, but as a car collector he is king. And the fact that he shares his collection with us the viewers, drives his cars like they are meant to be driven, and isnt scared to tastefully modify a lot of these rare and beautiful specimens where other wankers would keep the "correct" and bubble wrap them.
I could not agree more! I've spent countless hours with Jay watching his videos. You could lose track of reality and consider him a friend without ever shaking his hand. It would be a priceless memory to sit and chat with Jay before I pass away, I could also run a marathon..LOL! Enjoy the priceless collection of his passion which we share, without ever going for a ride in any of the cars except through Jays cameras. TY for sharing Jay!!!
I love the recognition Jay gives to the previous owners of he’s cars , the respect that Jay shows to others show that he is a humble man at heart and throughly deserves all his success.
"I think it's wrong for these automobiles to sit in a museum" words of a true car enthusiast. I love what you do with these classic pieces of art and drive them how they were meant to be. Thanks Mr. Leno for all your videos
@@TucsonDude at least he admits that not everybody can afford everything he can he doesn't act selfish he enjoys the cars and lets other people enjoy them to he is a true car collector
Yeah thanks jay.... we all are so happy seeing a billionaire with 300 cars.. we are all so grateful...please jay....help us a little bit more...be more rich!😂😂😂😂😂
I am so grateful that Mr.Leno shares his collection with us and,not only displaying them,he gives us the history of the cars,explains their mechanics and allows us ,vicariously,to share the experience with him.These cars are works of art.Danke,Herr Leno!
It's a delight to see this car out on the road instead of gathering dust in some museum - and being cared for by someone who truly loves it. The smile on Jay's face says it all.
Jay, I love this show. My son and I watch an episode a day. He's two and a half and already knows how to identify the different cars and loves looking at engines! Thank you for doing such a fantastic job!
Back in 1974 I was driving my brothers PV 544 Volvo through Bay Head ,NJ an old rich town on the Ocean when this old lady w her hair up in curlers came driving around the corner w A Bugatti Royale!!
I hope more people adopt jays philosophy of actually driving these cars, and sharing the experience. it's just amazing how much more you can learn by the noise, and the steps taken to even get it started. naturally if it's a one of a kind, well...it should still be driven, just maybe very very rarely hehe. I love seeing the polished areas people would normally ignore or pan away from, seeing the stitching, and the way people solved problems we don't even see as an issue today, like leather straps to hold the hood down, wire (omg!) that actually connects the body to the chassis..wow. just wish we had smell o vision ;)
Jay! I have no words for how thankful i am that you take care of a car like the 37A. Drive it like it was meant to, instead of letting her die in a museum. And your smile, while doing it, so happy to share! Thank you!
Yes, yes! My feelings exactly, it is wrong for the magnificence of iconic vehicles to be wasted in a museum and not to be experienced. It's not that it is wrong to preserve the machine but the point and appreciation of their qualities ability to inspire emotion is lost if they are not permitted to strut their stuff. Art is to be looked at, machines are to be experienced. That is why I can spend so much time watching Leno's Garage, he lets these old icons stretch their legs. It is the closest most of us will ever get to relating those cars to cars as we know them today...... as I drive to work in my Honda Civic financed over 84 easy monthly payments.
I just love those vintage Bugattis. Ever since I built that 1/8 scale model of a Type 50T made by Pocher back in 1982. It's great to be able to see videos of these fine cars now.
I grew up in Anderson, IN, a few blocks from a shop that was restoring Bugattis in the 1950s. I passed by the shop every schoolday on my way to school. Back then, Americans had never heard of Bugatti. When I tried to explain to my friends the significance of that shop, they just looked blank at me. I will always regret that I never stopped and talked to the people inside.
This has to be one of my fav's Jay! You can really tell how much you love it. It's an incredibly beautiful machine with an amazing sound. Indeed, imagine this in 1928!!!
@@atlskyline1 Jay said he has all the same clothes so he doesn't have to pick something, just off to work, I have seen him on the tonight show,he comes out before the show starts has on the same kind of jeans, smart move. I think your right as well.
I like to think that after Jay has passed on someday that his garage will live on as a national treasure. What a fantastic collection of cars and memories he has acquired. I really enjoy that the cars have a story, from owners, to races, to engineering feats. His garage is literally like and automotive time capsule and the best part of it all is they're all still living artifacts that run and drive. God bless you Jay Leno, you are a true legend of car culture and history.
That engine looks like it was sculpted. Beautiful! I prefer the old Bugatti's over the modern ones. These old bugatti's are real pieces of art. One other great thing is, that Jay Leno drives this work of art in the way it was meant for. Not keeping it away in a showroom, but just driving it on the road and not too slowly, LOL!
The Bugatti coupe in the corner of the garage would look fantastic out on the road. Some day, I hope. What incredibly excellent videos coupled with interesting information. Thank you.
Jay needs to have his own parade. There could be 40 of Jay's cars in the parade and each driver must wear a J Leno mask. It would be hilarious and beautiful. .. Do it Jay.
Well over 1,000,000 dollar Bugatti and Jay does the right thing.... he dives it in modern day traffic... like it was meant to be... my man Jay.... well done !!!!
Thanks for the ride along Mr. Leno! You think like I do in that it's a crime to let these cars just sit and never be driven. My father and I mess around with old international harvester tractors and we try to use all of them in the field as often as possible. Our oldest horse is a 1929 22-36 and let me tell u its areal trip to hand crank that puppy to life! Cheers!
The sound of this car has been by far the most satisfying of any car Mr. Leno has ever shown! Totally unbelievable for an almost 90 year old automobile.
I don't think that I've ever seen Jay Leno as reverential about a car as he was about this one. His closing statement that he hoped a future owner would remember him as a guy "who took good care of it [the car]…" was touching and heartfelt.
to hear you say "that its wrong to let these cars sit in a museum and that they should be driven on the road" is fantastic and its great to see you driving each of these old cars and showing us on youtube as most of us would struggle to see otherwise
I have my computer hooked up to my big stereo system and I crank this up! This and the Barchetta are my favorite sounding of all his cars and the Monza is a close second. Thank you Jay for the efforts getting high quality sound recordings!
As a boy, I looked at photographs and dreamed about cars like this hoping, maybe one day I'd actually get to see one. But, never did I think I'd get to see one run - and hard. Usually, with historic machines like this, worth so much, owners might start it or move around just above idle to show it off - making me feel terrible. What a pleasure it was to see this thing run as intended. Thank you, Mr. Leno.
Absolutely bloody wonderful!! Given the opportunity to own a Bugatti, I would take something like this over a Veyron or any car from the later company.
That is just, I don’t know how to describe it , just love it. It’s like a fine Swedish watch combined with chesterfield furniture and metal art. I told ya, I don’t know how to describe it.
I agree. My spring break is about to come to an end in two days and I literally spent roughly two hours a day watching his videos on this channel. It's simply amazing how much knowledge he has.
Hell yes, that thing doesn't deserve to be in a museum. It deserves to be "enjoyed as intended." If I owned one, it'd be my daily driver in the summer. Looks like a ton of fun.
Thank you Jay for another ride in a piece of history and a smile. Gotta love the old stuff car and machines and tools. True craftsmenship. I miss your show Jay always good.
+Alex Green IIRC People in general were shorter and smaller back in the 20s and 30s I would have stood well above most men of that era, but even today car racers use shoes that are more like thin cycling shoes with extremely thin hard soles, this type of racing shoe was common even back in the 20s and 30s, that might explain why the clearances are so tight in the older cars, at least in racing type cars. I have to admit, if I had the money I still wouldnt hesitate to order the Pur Sang version of it :-D
+Gama Goat well I am an 11...size 11...*shoe* size that is. Tight spaces are a problem, I once got stuck in an Italian....footwell... of a Fiat. Oh dear this isnt coming out right is it ?
This TH-cam Channel is Awesome.!! Absolutely my Favorite Channel... ... It's car like this ,and the history behind them .. Great Car.!! ... Great Video.!!
What an amazing sound! Jay is 100% correct -- nothing else sounds like that. And you'd NEVER get to hear it if that car was stuck in a museum somewhere. I love what he says near the end of this video -- you preserve the cars because they're classics, but you still drive them because that's what they were INTENDED to do! Kudos to you, Jay, for actually driving your cars, in addition to preserving many wonderful pieces of automotive history!
All of "us auto enthusiasts", will forever remain in debt to Mr. Leno. There are many "car collector's", but, only Jay Leno "shares his passion so often & unreservedly" with "us"! We all dream of these wonderful rolling masterpieces of human work, knowing that we'll never be so fortunate, as to actually being the caretaker of them. Mr. Leno let's us, just for a few all-to-short moments, "sit in the driver's seat, and realize those dreams"!
Watching this episode as well as many others for probably the hundredth time (just finished the 55 Mercedes-Benz 300SL gullwing ep. as well.. anyone who is watching this video and has not seen that episode should definitely watch it, oh and the Jag XK120M episode ). Actually all of these shows are great but what I feel is really great is when the car featured is one from Jay's own collection. His enthusiasm for these amazing cars is inspiring, interesting and a lot of fun to watch. It is simply incredible that on one channel we can see anything from this 1928 Bugatti Type 37a to an amazing Lotus Elan 26R to a sweet little Datsun 510 restored by Jay's prop guy (really an amazing Datsun 510, would love to daily drive a 510 like that). It really seems that even though Jay spent his career as a comedian and host of The Tonight Show, his real legacy will be the awesome care and admiration he has for these timeless and beautiful automobiles. So while it may be somewhat belated I would like to say Thank You to Jay the car guy for sharing his real appreciation for these very important pieces of automotive history. Good to know we have this video library as an online museum of sorts. One of my all time favorite channels.
Owen Satmary lol. "original engine that old." No. It's cause government has strong emission laws and sound laws. Get a inline 4 with a straight pipe and it sound ok.
Man I absolutely love the hand crank oil pump reservoir for adding in oil while you drive. That kind of ingenuity is what really stands out to make these early vehicles so darn special to me.
Cars of 20s - 30s is my new hobby and I'm still not quite pro in this entertainment. Judging from on design, Alfa 8C 2300 (1933) looks better. To brand Bugatti, I respect. And most of all I rated type 57G Tank (1937).
Technology...wow. 80 years later my Touareg is faster than this. One of the faster cars you can get back in the day to a modern SUV lol. Apple to oranges I know, but technological leaps we have made
Yeah man, as long as we appreciate our engineers and mechanics of yesteryear. Thanx to them we are enjoying our cars tha t can outperform their thoroughbreds of a century ago.
I wish people would stop saying how they love this show,but not the Tonight Show. It sounds like a backhanded compliment to Leno's new show. I always thought Leno was the best late night guy,but to each his own.
I love how Jay Leno isn't just some rich dude who owns a ton of cool cars just because he can. He actually loves and understands the engineering and historical value behind them! I'm not one to get "star struck" over famous people at all but I would love to meet him! Keep up the awesome work educating and entertaining us car nuts like yourself Jay!
naive
would love to have a week with him and really see thw garage and rude in some rare or just cool cars
chris herbert yeah man
He is awesome
well said
touche!
can we all admire how casually Jay told us how he finds it fun to handbrake slide in a 1928 Bugatti racing car
Owned by Veyron himself, no less. Jay's a boss.
He (like all of us),
has done/had "worse fun" 😄
I've logged more hours watching Jay Leno's garage than I did watching him on the tonight show.
+Mahatma Coat I never really watched the show, but I can guess that I've spent at least 50 hours watching his videos on youtube.

I understand what Jay means when he says "it's wrong to put them into museums." Very cool Jay.
It's wrong, but it's also something only the extremely rich can enjoy. At least they can be viewed by the public in museums.
Our museum runs and flies our stuff...can be especially challenging on aircraft.
Isn’t that exactly what Leno owns, a car museum?
@@scottbaxendale323 Private collection.
@@TucsonDude at least he admits that not everybody can afford everything he can he doesn't act selfish he enjoys the cars and lets other people enjoy them to he is a true car collector
we really owe men like Jay a debt of gratitude for actually driving these cars, thanks Jay!
I owe no man anything.
@@Make-Asylums-Great-Again stop taking every comment so litteral ....oh great one..
Yeah thanks jay.... we all are so happy seeing a billionaire with 300 cars.. we are all so grateful...please jay....help us a little bit more...be more rich!😂😂😂😂😂

I love that Jay Leno actually drives these cars instead of leaving them to look pretty!
You wouldn't keep a horse in a barn just because its old.
It's a delight to see this car out on the road instead of gathering dust in some museum - and being cared for by someone who truly loves it.
The smile on Jay's face says it all.
Jay, I love this show. My son and I watch an episode a day. He's two and a half and already knows how to identify the different cars and loves looking at engines! Thank you for doing such a fantastic job!
You sir are raising your son right!
got yourself an engineer there.
It gets even better. Jay Leno is now his imaginary friend. He walks around talking to Jay about his cars, trucks, and diggers. Hilarious.
Nathanael Slater hilarious, but watch out. Do give him some actual friends, just saying. I myself grew up as a lonely kid.
I wasn't a massive fan of the Tonight show, but I really enjoy Jay's car enthusiasm and this channel.
John Klatt Jay's Headlines segment was usually pretty good. Other than that though...... anyway ya this is definitely his "natural" habitat
yes this is the real Leno..a mad heavy metal car nut..
Back in 1974 I was driving my brothers PV 544 Volvo through Bay Head ,NJ an old rich town on the Ocean when this old lady w her hair up in curlers came driving around the corner w A Bugatti Royale!!
Ditto.
Although he was dynamite on Letterman in the 80s.
I stopped watching late nite shows when Leno retired. All the new idiots are too stinking left wing political hacks!
I just fell in love... this car sounds AMAZING, especially considering it's a 1.5L!!!!!!!
I hope more people adopt jays philosophy of actually driving these cars, and sharing the experience. it's just amazing how much more you can learn by the noise, and the steps taken to even get it started. naturally if it's a one of a kind, well...it should still be driven, just maybe very very rarely hehe.

My heart races just watching him drive Bugattis. Imagine driving one back when it was new. That would have been a life changing experience.
Jay! I have no words for how thankful i am that you take care of a car like the 37A. Drive it like it was meant to, instead of letting her die in a museum. And your smile, while doing it, so happy to share! Thank you!

People take their Honda Civics for granted when in fact they are better engineered than any Bugatti, past or present.
He doesn't have a Bugatti he has a Bugatti room full of Bugatti's.
Jay has so many sweet, sweet cars, but this has to be one of the sweetest.
That's less than the French museum with 123 Bugatti.
Does he own new Veyron or not?
i fell in love with the 37a when i was a kid looking through one of my grandpas old books.some day one will be mine oh yes will be mine
I have a Bugatti room full of Bugattis too, it's just that they're all 1:64 scale.
I just love those vintage Bugattis. Ever since I built that 1/8 scale model of a Type 50T made by Pocher back in 1982. It's great to be able to see videos of these fine cars now.
Nothing could be cooler! And to see it getting driven as it was designed to do!
This is beautiful Mr. Leno.

That sound is soooo good! Thanks Jay and thanks to the audio crew!
"The handling is really fantastic!" I bet it is! And, oh, the sound! Pure music! Thanks Jim, and thanks, Mr. Leno!
This has to be one of my fav's Jay! You can really tell how much you love it. It's an incredibly beautiful machine with an amazing sound. Indeed, imagine this in 1928!!!
Wow that really sounds amazing. Can't believe its almost 100 years old
They say jay could afford all these cars by saving money on clothes
Lol
@@atlskyline1 Jay said he has all the same clothes so he doesn't have to pick something, just off to work, I have seen him on the tonight show,he comes out before the show starts has on the same kind of jeans, smart move. I think your right as well.
And shampoo and hairspray
He was wearing denim pants denim button up shirt and a denim jacket lol
Turns out his denim outfit cost 23k.
I like to think that after Jay has passed on someday that his garage will live on as a national treasure. What a fantastic collection of cars and memories he has acquired.

amazing...1928! Jay, you bring this stuff alive. Respect Sir!
What incredible fun he's having. You can see it in his face. He really enjoys what he's doing and it shows.
The Bugatti coupe in the corner of the garage would look fantastic out on the road. Some day, I hope. What incredibly excellent videos coupled with interesting information. Thank you.
Every bolt, metal panel and leather bit on that car is pure art.
I don't know how many times I've watched this, but it sure isn't going to be the last.
I seem to re watch these about every 4-6 months lol especially these old classic car ones that are actually Jays cars
I went to reply and see I already did 4 months ago lmao
Glad it's not just me. The worst is when you find yourself responding to your own comment from 4 years ago - "Oh yeah I agree!"
Listening to Jay Leno talking about parts of the engine, not understanding any of it but still enjoying every second.
Jay needs to have his own parade. There could be 40 of Jay's cars in the parade and each driver must wear a J Leno mask. It would be hilarious and beautiful. .. Do it Jay.
And Wear all denim
Well over 1,000,000 dollar Bugatti and Jay does the right thing.... he dives it in modern day traffic... like it was meant to be... my man Jay.... well done !!!!
Thanks for the ride along Mr. Leno! You think like I do in that it's a crime to let these cars just sit and never be driven. My father and I mess around with old international harvester tractors and we try to use all of them in the field as often as possible. Our oldest horse is a 1929 22-36 and let me tell u its areal trip to hand crank that puppy to life! Cheers!
Anthony Ross You should show them on the show. Maybe contact Jay.
The sound of this car has been by far the most satisfying of any car Mr. Leno has ever shown! Totally unbelievable for an almost 90 year old automobile.
Superb video Jay. I never realised how truly tiny those Bugattis were
I don't think that I've ever seen Jay Leno as reverential about a car as he was about this one. His closing statement that he hoped a future owner would remember him as a guy "who took good care of it [the car]…" was touching and heartfelt.
Thanks Jay, that was fantastic, the sound! I like what you said about getting them out. It's the way to enjoy them.
to hear you say "that its wrong to let these cars sit in a museum and that they should be driven on the road" is fantastic and its great to see you driving each of these old cars and showing us on youtube as most of us would struggle to see otherwise
i love these videos, 1928 Bugatti sounds gnarly
I have my computer hooked up to my big stereo system and I crank this up! This and the Barchetta are my favorite sounding of all his cars and the Monza is a close second. Thank you Jay for the efforts getting high quality sound recordings!
The sound - exquisite.
"I think it is wrong to let these things sit in a museum." God Bless you for driving these babies!!
Wow, amazing drive. Jay is a master at driving those incredible cars, surely takes ability and courage to drive the way he does.
As a boy, I looked at photographs and dreamed about cars like this hoping, maybe one day I'd actually get to see one. But, never did I think I'd get to see one run - and hard.

Thank you Mr. Leno for taking care of and sharing with us this beautiful piece of art and history!
sounds raw! love it.
Do you suppose this might be the only car in the world with the gear-shifter outside the vehicle? So sweet Jay...it sounds amazing!!
Love your channel, Jay❤️ Greetings from Siberia😉✋
You just can't see this anywhere else. Awesome and thank you.
love that car jay very cool . and the post drive hair doo to. keep these vids coming!
you have my upmost respect and attention thanks heaps aye!!!
Hell yes, that thing doesn't deserve to be in a museum. It deserves to be "enjoyed as intended." If I owned one, it'd be my daily driver in the summer. Looks like a ton of fun.
I love the sound of that engine. >:-D
STILL my favourite episode after all these years and still my favourite car in Jay's incredible collection.
i can see this vídeo all the day, that car is just, amazing ..
Without a doubt one of the coolest Bugattis ever made
"We're here in the Bugatti room."
I wish I could say that...
You can say anything you want.
Thank you Jay for another ride in a piece of history and a smile. Gotta love the old stuff car and machines and tools. True craftsmenship. I miss your show Jay always good.
Wow I could NEVER drive this, my sasquatch feet are WAY too big for that clutch/brake/throttle set up.
I LOVE that outside shifter!

This TH-cam Channel is Awesome.!! Absolutely my Favorite Channel...
... It's car like this ,and the history behind them .. Great Car.!! ... Great Video.!!
My favorite video yet!
That sounds is amazing for a 1,5L 4cyl.
This series has the best videography and production values of any car vlog. Thanks
Wrong to let them sit in a museum. I agree. So what volunteer hours do you want me to work for you Jay?
Thank you for posting this. It's not how fast the car is that is important. It's how fun it is to drive that's important.
F**k watched loads of your films way to go mate running this on the road....superb car.... thanks a million for sharing this Sir!

It is simply incredible that on one channel we can see anything from this 1928 Bugatti Type 37a to an amazing Lotus Elan 26R to a sweet little Datsun 510 restored by Jay's prop guy (really an amazing Datsun 510, would love to daily drive a 510 like that). It really seems that even though Jay spent his career as a comedian and host of The Tonight Show, his real legacy will be the awesome care and admiration he has for these timeless and beautiful automobiles. So while it may be somewhat belated I would like to say Thank You to Jay the car guy for sharing his real appreciation for these very important pieces of automotive history. Good to know we have this video library as an online museum of sorts. One of my all time favorite channels.
This guy seems okay
He does seem OK! :0)
@Rene Benedict shush🤫 no one cares
That ride had my heart going, THAT THING IS FUN! I'm flabbergasted a 1928 tooling around spanking modern vehicles and sounding excellent.
11:41 You're here for this
That looks so fun!. Thanks, Jay, for taking us along.
"The Bugati Room"
Damn bro
Thx for sharing, Jay. Pretty amazing that a guy with one of the premier collections in the world is willing to share these cars the way he does.
omg why cant 1.5l engines sound like that today?
Valon Selimaj Catalytic converters, muffers, headers and emissions happened
Valon Selimaj hmmmmmmmmm maybe because it's an an original engine that's old
Owen Satmary lol. "original engine that old." No. It's cause government has strong emission laws and sound laws. Get a inline 4 with a straight pipe and it sound ok.
Emissions? He's driving that in California. Sound? I like that sound!
@@That_NJ_guy
Every straight piped 4 cyl ive ever seen has a god awful fart can on the back to ruin what would otherwise have sounded decent
Man I absolutely love the hand crank oil pump reservoir for adding in oil while you drive. That kind of ingenuity is what really stands out to make these early vehicles so darn special to me.
that was cool.
So amazing that the provenance has been so detailed and well preserved. The car really has that sound. Can’t explain it, just has it.
Cars of 20s - 30s is my new hobby and I'm still not quite pro in this entertainment.
Judging from on design, Alfa 8C 2300 (1933) looks better. To brand Bugatti, I respect.
And most of all I rated type 57G Tank (1937).
Wow, thanks man!
Thats one of the cars i want to see you drive for an hour. It sounds amazing
Technology...wow. 80 years later my Touareg is faster than this. One of the faster cars you can get back in the day to a modern SUV lol. Apple to oranges I know, but technological leaps we have made
***** Yeah feels alot faster than 120, 130mph in my Touareg feels like 80.
Yeah man, as long as we appreciate our engineers and mechanics of yesteryear. Thanx to them we are enjoying our cars tha t can outperform their thoroughbreds of a century ago.
I wish people would stop saying how they love this show,but not the Tonight Show.
It sounds like a backhanded compliment to Leno's new show.
I always thought Leno was the best late night guy,but to each his own.
Agreed.
nice underrated little bugatti !! and thanks for the ride Jay ,always a good showman !
