    Bro, this video is gold! Maybe it'll shut people up cause you could've gotten anything you wanted at this point but you're choosing to be different and build this car. I can definitely see the bond. Most people just buy expensive cars that are weak just because other people like it! Stay true to yourself!

      Jason Nguyen I totally agree. At the end of the day your car should fit you, and no one else. Your 250 definitely does that for you, and in 3 weeks my 2nd Gen 350 will do that for me too 😁🤘🏾

I got it solely for daily driving and making it look cute haha. Yet people always gonna the cause it’s slow! Like who cares, if I advertised to be the fastest, I wouldn’t have bought it lol.

      @theylive2749 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Idk about that. Much respect to this dude grindin but dropping $60k into a car that won’t resale for 1/4 of that isn’t a good business decision. Again, no disrespect to him but his views don’t justify the car being a sound business decision. I bought my GSF for $10k less than what he has in this car. He could have bought an ISF for $25k and invested the rest for a better return than TH-cam.

    • @go1more365
      @go1more365 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@theylive2749 Sure there are a lot a factors that go into blowing up on youtube but modifying a car like an IS would be more relatable to a bigger target audience. A car as rare as an ISF won't be something the average "car person" would search. So his videos on the mods he's done for the IS would have a bigger reach.
      An example would be some channels that feature the BMW 335i like Adam LZ. The car is cheap to own(relatively) in comparison to an M3. Had Adam owned an M3 straight for the get go, who knows his channel would be at the level it is today. Again like I said, many other factors contribute into the success of a channel.
      Also a final note. If he bought the ISF, the amount of money it would require to make mod videos for business/entertainment purposes would be many times higher.

    • @JasonNguyen
      @JasonNguyen  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They Live I mean, I personally don’t like the ISF inside or out. It’s only respected because it’s v8 but it’s an ugly car lol. I also didn’t spend 60k and I do feel like this channel would not exist if I got another car that’s already being vlogged with on TH-cam. That to me is strategy. Regardless of what the resale value is, it doesn’t matter because I don’t plan on selling the car lol. There are already plenty of videos on the F series cars and what not. Plus, even if I had $60k, why buy a car just to not be able to mod it. To me, that’s extremely boring, sure you get a nice car that’s fast or whatever but it doesn’t have you own unique taste to it. But that’s just my own genuine opinion. This car has done way more than I have ever asked for lol. I’m grinding and finally doing TH-cam, which is what I’ve always wanted to do! So I’m def grateful for this lil cute ass 250😭
      Plus, why don’t you tell every other TH-camr that they should invest instead of living their dreams lol. I don’t think people want all the money in the world like others, I personally want to do something that I genuinely enjoy and still get paid for it

    I’ve spent almost the same on my heavily modified Lexus GX 460 overland build. Full interior storage system, on board air, trunk table, modular rack, shift knob, gauges, cameras, lights, giant tent, skid plates,etc. I could go on 😂 I’ve been thinking about adding some proper vip style mods once I’m finished with the performance mods. If I do a couple of performance mods (suspension, wheels, tires, snorkel, & breathers) then I’d be right at your $44,000 budget. If I add the vip stuff I want (tables, wireless charger, stars, stereo, curtains, tint, hookah, refrigerator, etc.) probably ~$60,000. I also paid $26,000 cash out the door for my Lexus, bone stock 1 owner soccer mom oil change every 2000.
