A big applause for his wife for supporting John and letting him go with his gut feeling. Seriously, much respect for her. She had two kids definitely could say sell that damn thing but no. Seems she really acknowledges his love and passion and good instinct for making great deals.
Being a filthy rich business owner doesn't hurt either.
@@RedLP5000S Doubt he's filthy rich, well off - probably, but you could be just as well off with a lawn care company.
Yep, one of my exes was like that, and we ended up with an absolutely crazy cool VW New Beetle, slammed, 18", custom paint, exhaust, everything... - she got to keep it when we split, I had no use for a car and wasn't sure what I was going to do then. Still miss it sometimes because of the work that went into it, but I'd have had no use for a car then, and now much much less - I've a broken back and couldn't even get into a car without help, or drive it. Still love cars, but they are of zero use to me personally unless someone else helps me and drives it.
She was smart. If she made him sell it he would also resent it. Trusting him to make the decision at the right time paid off for them both. Trust is a wonderful thing!
Any story John brings to VinWiki is a story I want to listen to.
Same, I love hearing him talk about older Lambos
Both him and Ed are great story tellers
Such a great and captive storyteller.
Agreed him and rabbit are All-stars 😎
He is the goat ! I love his content
Another stop and watch immediately Car Stories guest, Thanx Ed. Love your work and passion John!
'One of a kind'
'How many did they make of these?'
'One'
Shootout to yesterday's video. Truly awesome patience
I thought “1 of 1” and “one of a kind” were pretty universally known terms😂
Biggest take away from this story is how great his wife is. Better keep that one at all costs.
Probably the best case that could've happened, he was able to fulfill a dream and got to make some great memories, it paid off financially and the car went to someone who also treats it with the passion it deserves.
I love to hear the histories of John, he seems to be a guy so humble, even negotiating cars worth tens of million of dollars!
This seems to be the week of Lambo stories and the wives behind them. Wonderful to hear that everything worked out for the best in the end.
Don’t forget about “I make $7.50 an hour and didn’t key Bams hummer after work where I get paid $7.50 an hour” yesterday
John, though I've always liked/appreciated Lamborghinis...they never had the passion for me of some other brands. Until I started watching your VinWiki stories. Your passion, knowledge, and especially family connection with your father, has given me a newfound love and passion for them. Thank you for sharing your passion and your stories with us.
I saw a Jota a few weeks ago driving down the highway! It was silver/grey and purple on the outside, I knew it was a Diablo but didn’t know what a jota was. Never would’ve thought I’d see one in my hometown
I almost skipped this vid, but once I saw John, its a must watch
I love the SE30 Jota. - My dream Diablo when I was a teenager... and it still is nearly 3 decades later!
1:21 The magazine that John is talking about is the July '95 issue of Performace Car magazine (photos by Roberto Carrer, words by Mark Walton). I bought that magazine back in the day, scanned and archived all the Jota pages before the original mag inevitably disappeared into the abyss of my past. - "Adrenalin has widened my eyes to the point where I feel as though I can no longer blink" - Remember that quote John? 😉
What happened to the video about Bam from the Regular Car Review guy? Went to show my wife and it's gone.
What a fantastic story. Thank you John, and thank you Ed!
Hey where’s that video from yesterday with Mr. Regular and Bam Margera? I can’t find it anywhere! 🤣
removed, it was awful.
Jota is ultra exclusive, but the SE30 and LP640 will always be my favorite Lamborghinis ever built.
Not sure why, I am as happy to hear John's success as if my own.
Beautiful story, I always love John's stories. Is great that this platform keeps letting us meet this passionate experts in the field. Thanks Ed for the channel, thanks John for the story and I hope you guys keep sharing. Greetings from Dominican Republic!
I saw that Purp SE30 when I was in Miami last week. It is absolutely stunning in person.
There will always come a time in a car enthusiast life where we have to choose between a house and our car. Glad he managed to keep a resemblance of something similar.
John is one of the best story tellers!
His success is simple - being at the right place, at the right time, and always ready... and a lot of leg work. A lot.
Kudos!
Take a shot everytime he says Jota 😂
Another great story thanks John.
This car still invokes the same emotions when I first saw it in a Dupont Registry mag when I was a kid. Gorgeous dream car. Great story!
I bought a candy bar and a lottery ticket yesterday and won enough on the lottery ticket to cover it's cost and the candy bar and felt like I was ballan out of control!
I don't know if it's John's stories, his delivery, or his cars. But he kills it on all levels!!! LoL...
Always love the SE30 stories from John. Best Lamborghini ever - no discussion about it. But I've also watched so many of John's videos that I've become used to his language patterns. Whenever he says "insanely passionate customer," it's code for "insanely rich customer." :)
I think their customers are extremely rich even if they are not that passionate :D Have you seen their inventory ? :D My favourite pattern from him is that "we really had no money at that time" :D
Never get tired of this story. The ultimate dream car for many of us.
I think Diablo SE30 purple is THE best looking car ever, of ALL cars ever made.
There are many other great looking cars like Miura, Countach, Lambos overall, 288GTO, Lexus LC, bmw e46 m3, McL F1, F355, Esprite, SLR, 918 and so on, but this purple Diablo SE30 is No1 for me.❤❤
´John, a gentleman and a great story teller. Definitely a plus for VINwiki! Cheer from Portugal.
I bought a factory 'Yota in 1980 and sold it a few years later for about $7,000. I loved that little Celica ST. 😆
You just have to love John, such an inspiring guy!
And mostly thanks to him I’m now a big fan of old cars and likely will be a curated customer at some point down the line lol
Cornelius Would Be Proud.🙌🏼
I love john but the "im not some rich guy" while wearing a Beverly Hills Sushi Club hat is hilarious to me
He hangs around people that live in a reality in which money doesn't exist ;)
@@johanndaart7326 it _does_ exist, and in great amounts too. 😜
My parents took me to the British International Motor Show in England in 1994 and there was a purple SE 30 there. That was when I fell in love with the Diablo. Guess we both got the bug about the same time John.
Awesome story!
In 2019 I sold the shares of my business to the other two partners and had a down payment for a house for my family and my new business. Sometimes it makes sense to jump at a big change, especially when you get to have your cake and eat it too!!
I love John's passion for all things Lamborghini. Great story and glad that he was able to actually keep an SE30 in his garage.
I love how Ed’s sponsorship message includes a quip about Car Trek & Fires! Natural Salesman.😂👍
John has the best stories !
Only took a few seconds to hear the word...Muira 😂😂😂
Great story, thank you for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your story.
Best to you Scott 🏁
RCR been real quiet since yesterday
Smh 💀
It's nothing worth them making a fuss over, what do you expect???
Such a great story, thanks for sharing !!!
What happened to the Mr. Regular video about the ski resort?
Removed because it was awful.
@@burnzy3210 but the comments were golden
@@burnzy3210that was fast lol, it really was awful but the comments were amazing
who's mr regular?
@@SATISFACTIONZ0R story on bam margera at ski resort yesterday..
Enjoyed the story and how passionate John is while telling it!
“I’m not a rich guy” proceeds to buy a car that has no comp in the country…
It's actually called a JOTA, not a yoda. The Jota first appeared on Laverda Motorcycles of the 70's & 80's. I had a 1000 Jota that was based on an Italian engine with Japanese instruments!
Very cool story. Enjoyed it.
Im sure there are Lamborghini "historians/enthusiasts" that know more about these cars. But, I suspect they are older and unrelatable. Something approximating professors/librarians. John is the guy that every has as a friend. He has forgotten more about these cars than I will ever know. It really is mind blowing
🎉great story! You can feel his passion for these cars
Best of both 🙌
Those Purple Diablo SE30s are one of my favorite Lamborghinis too ever since I used to read all about them in car magazines in bookstores or wherever. I did a roadtrip across the country to CA in 1997 where I saw one at a dealership in Palo Alto and they actually let me get in it and take a few pics. I still have a 1/18 scale diecast model of it. I wonder how many of the Purple ones were made ?
to this day the purple/blue se30 is one of the coolest cars in my book. looking at it as a kid it didn't even seem real, like a spaceship
Congratulations on being a home owner man! 😊
Love dis guy story's!!!!
The Rabbit 🐇 also.
Very motivating
What a lovely guy & a lovely story.
Damn good story 😊
I love this guys stories
As soon as i see John Temerian It's watch now time.
That blue top. Spectacular
Hands down my favorite Lamborghini. I hope one day to own a replica. 🤣
John is a master storyteller.
This dude is the goat I swear
John is such a great guy.
What a story, glad i have watched this video.
12:33 this is the photo… wow
I remember the first one i ever saw (also the first time i got to ride in a Ferrari), i have a photo of it, but sure it has different front side indicators than the one in the first side picture in this video (at 40sec). Are they made with different versions?
Edit: The one i saw, was in Spain, Marbella, hit me up if you want the photo and short fun story about it.
5:18 i know assetto corsa when i see it ;) lol that car is a blast to drive
Another story to help drive up the price of another car Nice
By the time watched 1/4th of this, I’d shared it with 4 people as a truly interesting and passionate discussion by someone who knows everything. I thought it would have 5M views and 2.5likes
This will get big within the next 6 weeks
A Jota kit is sitting in Toronto, and it has never been used!
Nice story 👏🏻👏🏻
Bro will never let it go
The best car in GTA 1. It’s truly an OG.
Sweet yarn John one of your best
Love John's stories. Ince again, not disappointed..
Great story
Beautiful story! =) I just bought an 1:18 AutoArt Diablo SE30 viola yesterday. My all time favourite car.
1:05 I had the earlier version of that model in yellow
Awesome story John..well done!
Great story.
You took the correct decisions John.
This is one of my favorite color on the diablo, one because of cosmic girl by Jamiroquai and two men this color is beautiful.
This Orlando Bloom impersonator has some pretty good stories.
I love this guy pause, rabbit is the shit too. rabbit gets the 🏆🥇
I wanted an F1 so bad as a kid. Now I just want to see one in person. There is no way I will ever be able to drop 20 mill on anything ever.6
Cool story bro
Hope all guys here find women like his wife!
There is a Japanese guy in SF with a blue targa, I've seen him in Japantown.
I bet that Lamborghini Expert Olivier is the Olivier Nameche
Cool story
As soon as I saw a Lamborghini I knew it had to be John
A SE30 got sold from northern Sweden recently
John should’ve kept the jota he was actually born for this big part of lambo history wouldn’t be told if it wasn’t for him and pops decades but I understand why
My question is, if he was living in a condo, where in the heck did he keep the Lambo? Parked in the parking lot? Please answer this!!
07:29 Sounds like that car could've benefitted from VTEC 😘
John is the Lambo Master
