5 Cars Collector Snobs Inflated!

- Cars are meant to be driven. If you take that away from us car guys, someway, somehow, we'll find a way to put it back on the road. We don't even have to buy the car from you. We'll just build a whole arsenal of replicas, so good, that it'll tank your car's value. Who cares about original VINS once 50 years pass. The best car...is the one still on the road. Get outplayed Collector Snobs!
THIS VIDEO ONLY REFERS TO CARS THAT INFLATED RAPIDLY DUE TO SNOBBERY. Car Guy's are guilty of inflating cars due to hype like the BMW M3's and Nissan Skylines, but none of them reach the level that these cars have. I'll make a car guy cars inflation video on it's own.

The worst thing are supercars, engineers put so much effort and work into these
And some supercars only see sunlight ONCE in thier life

Wow guys, don’t you ever like it when you slam your car at 120 mph, and it’s an expensive repair
Brick Man this on time I slammed it at 180mph and I couldn’t afford to pay for my brothers life support...
But my cars fine repaired that.
Yeah, I think the entire limited production thing is bullshit. They could mass produce these cars easily and that would make them cost much less (along with deleting gimmicks such as $2039292929 materials for reducing 2 kg) That would make them accessible to a lot more people.
This is why i respect Jay Leno majorly. He drives every single one of his cars, and takes so much care of them, they basically just rolled off the line.
That’s because jay knows he doesn’t own these cars. He is just their caretaker till he isn’t with us anymore.

@@Journey_Awaits I mean, someone like Caroll Shelby already had more than enough money to live a life of luxury. And that 25 million dollar offer was probably very, very late in his life.
People who hoard cars with no intent of driving them dont deserve cars. Ive met a dude who has a 100% real gt40. (im fairly sure it is one of the gt40s that ran le man). The dude still takes it to hill climbs and races competitively. #driveyourshit
Missed opportunity to say #driveyourshift
viper he is worthy of that car
viper same in here, there is a guy in asia who also has a real gt40, and he always take it to the race track and a car meet without being on top of a trailer
And it really sucks as well. I understand that a person will keep their car in a garage for the winter in icy regions as salts can ruin the chassis, but not driving them at all is just wrong
viper Yes they do deserve it cuz they bought it. They do with their cars whatever thebfuck they want. Life isnt fair sirs, if you think you deserve it more than then then bust your ass tryna get one and don’t be saying “oH tHeY dOn’t dEserVe iT”
Fun fact, Shelby still makes replicas of the Cobra to this day
that would be factory five.
Lol if Shelby made the replicas then it wouldn’t be a replica...it would be a Shelby cobra 😂 but factory five and some others make them

You can honestly put all the "best known" JDM names here since they will be the next thing blown to the fucking moon in prices in a few years.
RX-7 FD3S, Skyline GT-Rs, Honda NSXes (as mentioned in the video), JZA80 Supras, FTOs, Integra Type-Rs, GTOs (as mentioned in the video), the list goes.
Not just helped by the general "low" production numbers, but because these cars are so popular for modifications that an unmolested car is worth a fortune.
There was a guy near me that owned a Gallardo like 10 years ago. He drove it EVERYWHERE, I first saw it when he took his grandson to McDonald's in it. He let us sit in it and rev it, best experience as a 14-15 year old car guy.
4:50 , gas Kings is in jail? I remember being disgusted by his content and would always ignore his videos in recommended. Huh

He lived maybe a 15 minute drive away from me. I met him multiple times just around town lol

You kind of need to drive cars every now and then, keep everything lubricated.
All out basement dweller collectors haven’t quite realised that
It’s also best to run the engine every few weeks in case it’s sitting out the winter so the oil doesn’t get too thick from the cold weather
The fact that most F1 will never see the road again just breaks my heart so badly
It was supposed to be the greatest road car ever created.Not the greatest garage car.

Man, I hate it when cars that are meant to be driver focused ends up going up in value and ending up becoming a collector`s item. I`m sure many of the 90s Japanese sports cars will end up being garaged away for investment purposes in like a decade. I do have to admit people who buy cars as investments really contribute to performance car sales though.
I’ve been watching all your vids today I just rewatched the cheap things expensive cars do video and as soon as I got the notification I clicked
Next should be 5 cars weebs inflated or 5 cars movies inflated

I know i'm never gonna see a cobra, but seing a well made replica is still enough to make me smile.
That’s one thing I like about Jay Leno, he takes amazing care of his cars, and drives them. I love watching him drive some of those rarer cars on the road, hearing the engine and seeing them in their natural habitat: on the road.
Towards the end of the video when you were talking about the car terms like supercar and hypercar, I just wanted to add that there already another new phrase. Mr. Koenigsegg calls his cars “megacars” lol. Damn, I wonder what is next... “colossalcar”? 😂
7:21 that is my computer background picure
When you said the McLaren F1, I felt that... The $1 million price tag 15 years ago actually seemed reasonable when I was a kid, I wanted to work my ass off to get one, it's my dream car. But as time went on and the auctions went from 8 to 10, then 10 to 15, then 15 to 20 million my heart sank😖 the car is more of an investment than anything else, a jewel for collectors to flaunt their wealth but rarely gets used properly. Most if not all the owners even know how to drive it on a road course and have probably never used the dual luggage compartments. And that's the worst part it was ment to be a practical hypercar more than anything, how many hypercars of today actually have some form of trunk? That's also why I kinda hate the P1 and the Senna. (Lol that was kinda long, sorry)
there's someone in my area driving a silver early model NSX around, so at least there are a few out there still being driven, exterior was bone stock too
I can give you a really good example of this from a car you wouldn't know.
That car is the Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase 3. It is an Australian car that used to be sold for 70 grand back in the day but now they go over a million dollars. This has made XY falcon prices skyrocket so now trying to buy a replica can be worth $150,000. Even normal XY's that are rusted out recks come to $20,000. It is insane.
8:34 "Pagani Veyron" - Bladed Angel 2020
Saw a 2005 GT. It actually drove out of the show. Man was nice, and said he’s taken it to the track a few times...
When i see viper in this list my heart sink right that time.
I was once at a show where a guy had a replica 40s MG, based off an MGB GT. Talking to him about the history of his was more interesting than talking to the owner of the barely driven original next to it.
I'm going to say thank you for showing me these kit cars because if I didn't I might not be able to ever drive them(GT and Shelby).
I don’t entirely agree with this vid as collectors are gonna collect cars and drivers are going to drive their cars. It’s what your into and i don’t see people who collect cars as keeping cars out of peoples hands. It’s kinda sad to see people say that collectors don’t deserve their cars, when in fact they have expensive “real” cars that they try to keep nice and they’re expensive.
When it comes to replicas,
Say I made a replica of a really old and very rare car, and I made a market for it for 1/100 of the price, would you say that the originals are therefore less valuable because their are now 100+ fake cars that look like it. No. It would make originals more valuable because having an actual 100% real version of the car I pristine condition in my books would be way more valuable, it would also IMO make the originals more likely to turn into collectors items.
Just my thought on the whole thing. And overall just seems like collectors didn’t inflate the price of some of these cars you mentioned near as much as people who replicate it.
And as for which car I’m referring to the Ferrari 250 gto is a good example worth 40 million and considering what you said on your video price wise it could be made in under 200k. Making it 200 times cheaper than the original. Kits and replicas may be cheaper and easier to obtain they’re still not the real deal they may look like a duck, talk like a duck, and even act like a duck, but it’s not a duck.
I love jay leno because he has a collection that outshines these snobs yet he drives his cars and works on them he isn't just a rich boy
Also: buying a viper would be awesome i would definitely love to see you buy a viper as a project car and using it in your videos
Yes though I don't know how often they drive but they run!
As a superformance cobra owner myself, it is a shame that real cobras never get driven. There was a day when it was just a car. I'm glad to have they replicas for sure, they allow people to build them and customize them however they want. My car is built by superformance so it is officially licensed by Shelby. It is the closest thing to the original. On the out side it looks period correct with 15 inch wheel and no luxury features like a radio. But underneath it is a modern car with a super nice chassis, coilovers, wilwood brakes and brand new engine. Great video Bladed👍
Hey Bladed Angel I think its great you called out BS on all the snobbery! Average people that work hard for their money should be able to enjoy the finer things in life also sometimes. There's nothing I hate more than a trailer queen. Plus what a waste of money to spend a fortune on a car to never drive it around.
8:34 ah yes my favorite pagani

There’s a nice collector in my area who has tons of cars, easily a 10mil collection, but he actually understands the purpose of the cars and drives them but also keeps them in a museum for the public to look at as well.

I was not surprised when he mentioned the Dodge Viper. Me and my dad use our 2004 supercharged Dodge Viper every weekend. We took it to a car meet and saw this dude with a rare 2010 viper for the street and track. His viper had a NA 780 hp engine but he only put in 30 miles over his 3 years of owner ship. And he did bring it in a trailer.
Honestly thought the old gen Miata would be on this list, the gen with the popup headlights, because I seen their prices and they're pretty expensive and rising.
Amazing how a BMW 5 series engine and some bus’ taillights can get up to 25M.
Scott Mccauley hmmm, don’t get me wrong, I think these cars’ prices are kinda justifiable. I’m just joking around.
The AMC javelin is a cheap pony/muscle car you can get right now, hopefully collectors don't drive up the prices.
shut up man thats my dream car. I need it to stay hidden and cheap
@@jeffmayo6002 Its mine too :)
Seems like a lot of classic and retro cars are fairly priced for now, but collectors are starting to affect them. As a member of the third gen firebird and camaro brotherhood, I’ve heard that collectors are starting to jack up the prices due to them having racing history and the firebird being in Knight Rider. Smh they need to chill

I feel very privileged for this, this comment is not to flex or anything, just informing a crazy scenario. When I was 11 my dads work friend was moving, and he had a 3000gt (Mitsubishi) and it was a vr4, it had a new radio and a body kit that had not been installed yet, and my dad bought it for the measly amount of only 1000 dollars, and when we came back home after loading it on the trailer my dad looked me in the eyes and said, “This is your first car by the way”, and I completely lost my shit

Dude, I might be getting c5 z06, what brand headers do I need to sound close to a Ferrari (like yours)? And do you know of any ones that don't dip as much as others?
Im big fan
Mine are custom made. No aftermarket company makes 180 headers for any Corvette. I know some guy made 180 Headers for the C5 and C7 on the Corvetteforum, but I think he's done taking commissions. In his words, "Way too much trouble"
@@BladedAngel damn, that's just really unfortunate, I was hoping one day to actually sound good and unique for once, oh well
Its even worse when people have classics just abandoned its honestly sad, collectors piss me off tbh so many cool cars just parked forever
Near me house, there’s a blue viper and it’s been parked outside in the street and never moved these past 2 years I’ve lived in this area
I get where you're coming from, theres nothing better than seeing rare and valuable cars on the road being used. But cars are much more than that, they're investments that people want to own for their own reasons. We should respect the choices of the owners as they wish to preserve the cars for a reason, whether be financial or personal.
I’m sorry I’ve got to say it replicas are disgusting and should be put in the same class as fake amg or m sport badges, you have to have owned one of these cars to appreciate how annoying it is to have an amg whilst some one put a fake badge on a c200d all that effort to have attained such a vehicle and some knob jockey violates your car and I actually think some cars if not most cars can be collected because some cars need protecting in order to restore the heritage because if everyone drove them how you would suggest then their would be none left and given basic supply and demand prices would sky rocket even higher
I can understand your points and I do agree to some extent but we can all agree some machines are too sentimental and too niche to be used and abused
I was feeling like I should save up for a Porsche 930 but after you said that Vipers are collectors cars and because I planned to have one down the road, I feel conflicted because old 911s are sky rocketing in value and Vipers are too. But I guess when I have the money I will have to take them out for a spin and just pick whichever makes me smile more.

Hahaha very funny
People can do whatever they want with their cars lol.
A man of culture I see "car guys, no collectors" it's what you want to do and that's a true car guy
Why own a car when you're not gonna drive it though, cars are meant to be driven, not rot in a multi million garage.
For the Acura NSX I would only ever get them early models because nothing beats the nostalgia of those POP UP HEADLIGHTS
One thing to consider with the early NSX's is JDM imorts. Seeing as some of the earlier NSX's are now legal to import due to them being 25 years old or older they are legal to import from Japan (and other places) which might impact the value of the ones currently here in the states. Remember less supply+ higher demand= higher prices but, more supply while retaining the same demand= lower prices. Sort of like what you stated with the Shelby Cobra.
That Mustang-chan cameo
What do you do when you constantly move millions of dollars through your bank account? You buy exotic cars, expensive art, gold... These things are like a savings accounts for the people that have more money than the bank.
This vid rly made me want a replica car because like you said they are pretty much the same car that is faster handles better and has nice modern features
Oh god the viper one hits home, was my dream car and I’d always see one in the town across from mine, it was an older man he drove the piss outta that thing. One year he wasn’t at the annual car show, found out he had passed and someone in the family inherited the car. No clue what happened to it haven’t seen that car since I was about 10-11. (I’m 18 now)
On the bright side I did see a 2016 viper at a gas station about 4 months ago
You'll be happy to know there's a gen-1 Viper local to me that gets driven regularly, part of a club for retro cars, one member has a Reliant Kitten with a bike engine, it's mental.
Ahh yes... nothing like spitting out my drink after seeing the thumbnail.
had each of these. The original cobra and I absolutely loved it. It was a great car. Then some hole backed up into it. Viper great car. the ACRs set all track records in America. Except for one track where the porche 911 spyder beat it. 2005 Ford GT crazy fun not so comfortable but has a lot of HP.
I can understand why people keep collector icons in garages for an extended time period, but they can at least drive them once or twice right? It’s sad that most collectors just let cars sit there and collect dust for years like it’s any better than just driving them around.
The Shelby Cobra 427 s/c is my favorite car but I wish people would actually drive it and not try to protect it as much as they do. When I lived in Arizona the only time I would see it was when Barrett Jackson is in town but other than that I would just see pick up trucks and soccer mom vans
There is a business in Cape Town (South Africa) called *Cobra Experience* ; that buys and rebuilds Ford AC cobras (Restomods). They then use them for sunset cruises, chauffeur drives and even lease them out. It's always nice to see them around the city and knowing that they are used to bolster my city's economy and tourism is also really amazing and something that I tend to geek out on.
I also believe *(if not mistaken)* that they are the biggest holder of Ford AC Cobras in the world.
I haven’t watched the video yet and i have a feeling the NSX will be on here
I was right
Not all Ford GT owners keep their cars in their garage. One owner that actually drives his GT a lot comes to mind.
Doug Demuro, of course.😀
You should talk about the singer vehicle design and how you feel about it.
Why I only discovered this channel now
Found myself in an honorable mention, I recently bought a 3000gt. Another one which was stolen was my 300zx been seeing ridiculous prices on those as well.
A friend of my dads has an Aston Martin DB6, a late 60s DBS, a V12 Vantage, Mercedes 280SL, and used to have an Aston DB5. He drives all of them. He takes incredibly good care of them, but they’re all driven very regularly. The way it should be.
One thing find even more funny is the a replica 427 Shelby cobra replica can had for around 27~28k now so guess how the owners with original Shelby cobra must feel
My neighbor two doors down got a first gen Viper with about 11k on the clock for right around 30k. Best thing about Corona so far has been getting to hear it start up when he takes it out in the morning
Craziest thing about the 99 vr4 is those glass headlights. You used to be able to pick up a pair for a couple hundred bucks and now people want like $2,000 just for the headlights and turns
Any classic Porsche could make this list or be an honorable mention, especially the more desirable versions of the 911. The first and second gen 911s used to be had for 20-30k but now they’re upwards of 80 and some of them go for 100 plus. Even the lesser known 912 is barely affordable anymore. The most recent “cheap Porsche” is the 944 but even those are starting to climb in price. A few years ago you could find a nice driver quality 944 for around $10,000, now they’re closer to 20. The 1984 911 turbo is my dream car but I’ll be lucky to ever be able to afford one
