You should be. This is my first time ever seeing or hearing of JP but he seems like such an amazing ambassador for car culture and just an outright genuinely nice person.
Thank you guys so much for watching. I'm bummed we didn't have a chance to go to JPs private track as it started raining hard right after the dyno pulls. I'll definitely visit again for the next season of Capturing Car Culture!
Thank you so much for making this happen. I can't tell you how much this did for me watching this, while in a dark place because of no lights.💯 I miss real car culture in the states.
@@Resist_OppressionI’m stoked this helped you man. I’ve been and still an right we’re you are. It gets better. Maybe reach out to a health professional and spend some time with them. It sounds weird and your pride gets in the way but it does help. I promise it will.
JP is one of a kind. His ability to transport his enthusiam and happyness to the viewer and staying the respectfull and humble guy, with all the success he has as a selfmade man makes me happy. Being able to remind yourself from where you came and stay true to yourself while being a boss of that many employes is remarkable. I wish him all the best in life.
JP has to be the most extraordinary guy that happened to European car culture. Humble, yet crazy enough to fight for his dreams and love for engineering. A human being with a big vision and a big heart but also someone who has seen the darker side of life. It tells a lot about him when you see what he does and who he became.
This is my first time ever hearing about him as an American even though I've been consuming automotive content since I've been a kid just like JP. Him talking about the car brochures hit me right in my childhood 😂 He's one of the best ambassadors and personalities for car culture that I personally have ever seen. You can tell he has a passion to inspire people about cars, but even more so with children. Seems like he'd be that really cool uncle you'd always want to hang out with.
As a German JP makes us incredibly proud, and he is right, its a fight to be a car guy in germany but the fact that he inspires so many ppl in germany to keep following their passion shows that its a fight worth fighting! There won't be another one like him!
Honestly he is why the Police is that fucked up about a tuned car.......a lot of his Fanboys did like him and removed Resonators and drove way to hard around.
@@tt-rs1457 You can't possibly blame all that on JP, people have been doing this since cars were around... The internet as a whole made car culture more accessible, but also push it into the mainstream more. And this is always connected with problems, more people being stupid etc.
Please don't view it as a fight. And please don't victimize car guys. It's just about liking cars and sharing the enthusiasm. That should be a good thing. A fight is not. Maybe there's people out there feeling like they need to hate on car enthusiasts, but only because people that get all aggressive and gatekeepy-fighty over their hobby is just easy to hate. If you see someone ready to hate on you stuff, welcome them with open arms and show them what you like, you'd be surprised how many haters immediately show their sympathy. The hate that car guys experience are a fraction of what other minorities experience. Maybe try turn that experience into something good for everyone. Be nice.
@@kooooons I think you missed the point bro. In Germany the rules and regulations you need to follow and how these things are enforced and monetized is what’s making being a tuner in Germany a fight, sometimes literally.
@@imGeistevereint No, the original comment claimed it's a fight to be a car guy. Not to be a tuning company. I believe many car guys think that they are oppressed in some wa. But I also believe thinking this way is part of the reason why car guys do face some hate and prejudice and why they think this is everywhere when really it isn't.
"What the Hell...!!!". Larry, I have been a car person my whole life and the JP experience was one of the Greatest Car/Person Experiences ever. The Ultimate Car Guy... I'm not a traveler but before it's all said and done I have to go to Germany. Thank you and JP...🚗
When he said: „Nobody of the employees would ever bother them like „why are you here“ they can be here and sit on the floor for 8 hours and sometimes they do this.“, i was tearing up.
JP ist bei dem US Publikum viel Selbstbewusster und stolz drauf was er erreicht hat wie ich finde, bei den Deutschen würden sofort viele sagen das er Arrogant wäre..... schade eigentlich
Sein Gegenüber ist hier ein großer Faktor für seine gute Laune. Ich würd auch nur grinsen :D Sehr emotionales Video welches mir sehr gut gefällt. Da ist ein Hauch von Freiheit zu spüren den wir gerade nicht so "empfinden". Danke dafür
Das Problem in Deutschland ist, dass die Leute zu einem Großteil immer negativ eingestellt sind wenn man sagt, man ist Unternehmer. Bin seit 2012 auch selbstständig, und sobald man das erwähnt wird man von vielen nach wie vor extrem negativ empfangen. Die Gesellschaft bei uns würdigt Mut nicht, du musst hier Lemming sein, von 9 to 5 arbeiten und bloß nicht den Mund aufmachen. Ist leider so. Egal wohin man ins Ausland fährt, die Leute sind viel interessierter daran was man macht und wie man das geschafft hat, die Wertschätzung ist eine ganz andere. In Deutschland auch ein großes Neid-Problem, da geht es dann sofort darum "wieso verdient der mehr als ich" usw., mittlerweile kann ich darüber lächeln, aber es führt tatsächlich dazu, dass man sich zurückhaltender darstellt.
Yea that's unfortunate. Even without know JP's backstory growing up, you could still tell how passionate and thoughtful he was when crafting his museum and restaurant. There are many VERY wealthy people in the world with massive car collections, but I've always appreciated people like JP who had very diverse taste and knowledge in cars and motorsports. Much better than the rich that just buy every expensive and exclusive supercar/hypercar just to flaunt their wealth while barely know anything about the history and heritage of the car or manufactuer.
@@53Sickpig Speaking of freedom, what was JP referring to about Germans fighting a lot right now? I'm from the US and not familiar with the climate in Germany.
This is crazy… The restaurant itself is nuts. Closest thing I’ve seen to having a workshop and restaurant together is a coffeehouse with a workshop in La Habra. A museum and a real crazy shop with tons of cars? It’s other worldly…
I remember when they built the restaurant. Imagine a specialized car tuning company suddenly applying for a restaurant license, designing burger recipes, and all that. Usually a place like that would be outsourced, but they/ JP wanted to do all inhouse. He gets into all the details. Really special. And it was for sure a business risk to try.
I didn't know much about JP before this, I've seen few of his cars, but to know what he has done, what he is doing and what an amazing thing he is doing for car culture is unbelievable based on his story as a young boy. I want to learn more about him and his story, and I wouldn't have even thought about it unless you made this video, Larry. Likewise, I am blown away by all the pieces to his passion and would love to try one of his burgers, lol. Thank you for this one Larry, but you need to do more with JP please.
Problem about the book 1st it‘s completely sold out 2nd it‘s in german. You can still buy an audiobook version but it‘s in german too so you have to learn german to learn something about JP‘s childhood.
@@florianj6490 Yes know about JP for many years but mein deutsch bist nicht so gut and most his material is in German so not following the channel but many of his cars speaks for it self.
I'm going on holiday in Germany, in a couple of weeks. And this place just went on my MUST SEE list. Can't wait to surprise my son with a trip to, what basically is the car geek version of Disneyland. 😊
This video could've been two or three times as long and I still would've watched and enjoyed every part of it. JP is a big name in the car community in Germany. Glad we got a video about him in this series.
The Dahlbäck Golf is definitely the holy grail for all european car enthusiasts. 🙏 Nobody can better represent the german tuning culture than jp does. He’s the nicest grounded guy.
Well to be fair he represents one niche/section of it, very very strongly. Certainly far from representing german tuning culture as a whole, or even "typical case". He has a strong presence, but tuning-wise it's mostly rather one-note.
@@Happymali10 dude you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. At least half the cars featured easily have Tüv, the rest are complete builds including a golf 3 with the engine in the back and custom made body kit, a bettle from gran turismo and a fucking twingo with an r1 in the back. There are also enough cars that have like 20% more power than stock and which are completely road legal. They're are maybe 3-4 cars from the 81 mentioned in the video which fit your description.
And when you keep in mind, and this is no secret, he has talked about it in his videos and has written a book about it, that he does all of this while being diagnosed and struggling with Asperger Syndrom and also sometimes severe Depression. Suffering from Depression myself, i have no clue where he gets that energy and drive from, i certainly don´t have it. Our "Schokohase" has my utmost respect and admiration. A remarkable human being, very grounded and smart, loves dogs.
Jean Pierre is, without any doubt, the biggest automotive related TH-camr in Europe. It obviously helped a whole lot that he started on German TV, but what he built in the last decade is truly impressive. Consider that he walked those very streets when he had basically nothing and now he owns an entire block where he built his dream. I really need to go visit the pace museum. Kremo is a cool guy
What a humble guy. I respect that he came from the bottom to the top by working hard to make his childhood dreams come true. I cheer for people like him.
I am blown away. The fact he said a kid with a passion can come just hang ou and enjoy for hour without being asked to leave is so beautiful. Her in the states this is unreal. Thanks Jp for creating this magical place.Larry Chen hats off to u brotha.
This really gives you a new perspective. As a German i am so used to all the crazy stuff jp does. On top of all that you have seen he puts out content every single weekday of the year. At 11:30h to the second there is a great video every day. Every single one
It's amazing what he manages to accomplish in Germany with his cars considering their stance towards cars and tuning. He is a tuning light at the end of the tunnel in Germany
This is beyond next level. Being in the States I fell like a lot of times we don't think about how important car culture in other countries. JP mentioned that one Dalbec car in the museum to European kids is more amazing than the McLaren GTR.
This is inspiration. Humble content. Chen and JP in the G "We're making what we wanted to watch when we were little" Create the world you want to see. This is why we as a enthusiasts exist and inspire to be more. KB4ever.
I said I'm just gonna watch 5 mins of this and save for tomorrow morning but I end up finishing the entire video and I'm thought it's 10 - 15mins long but no! It's nearly a hour long and I can't get enough. It's so much to check out of JPPerformance. Jeezzzzzz this is insane and emotional to me just seeing such a collection in such short video. Madness
When I visited the PACE museum a few months ago I was wondering who shot all those amazing pictures on the walls and now I know it's all yours - awesome work!
Thank you for making this video, I have never heard of Jean Pierre Kraemer before and just hearing his story has brought so much joy! The passion, and love that he shares with people is what life is! What an amazing person.
The Dahlback Golf is something special. I remember seeing that car at the race track in ≈ 2003. At that time the fast cars had about 500hp, the really fast cars had 600-700hp and the Dahlback Golf had 1000hp from 5 cylinder. Absolutely amazing car.
I really felt JP's passion, and your passion, as being something so deeply personal and genuine. Obviously you're in this because it's fun but you have such a deep appreciation for how you got where you are. There's a great mix of pride in your actions but with humility in your words.
This video is purely emotional. From smile to almost tearing up from happiness is crazy. I need to visit there someday and that is a fact. Thank you for both of you for an amazing video.
By far the best episode you've done! You can see in JP eyes that this is his dream! The way he talks about it, the way it's displayed and curated, simply amazing! Congratulations Larry, you are a very "lucky" guy!
NGL I would eat burgers and hear cars on the dyno all day 😸What a cool experience. Some of the builds look so amazing! Appreciate the videos Hagerty, whoever is running this channel, we love and appreciate you. 😻
Thank so very much, I’m German living in South Carolina and following JP for quite a while now. But I think this was the best showing of his work I ever saw. Some goosebumps involved 😊 I’m definitely planning to go there now and see it in person
Overwhelming car episode , at aw with the connections ; cars , people and the visions with a no limit dreams come true , epic !!! Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Jp kann mehr als stolz auf sein Unternehmen sein. Thanks you Hagerty, for visit Germany and JP is the only one who can represnt germany better than this guy. Danke JP für das du der bist der du bist! greetz from germany!
This video was very emotional to me! I follow JP since 2009 in his first appearance on TV at PS Profis and later on since 2013 at his TH-cam channel JP Performance. Your chat in the G Class was quite wonderful! Thank you very much for visiting him to show the US Audience was a nice guy he is and what he achieved in this topic.
JP is our kinda Jay Leno. We love cars and we definitely enjoyed the day in Dortmund. Men is special, unfiltered... always hard working. Much love from Würzburg 🇩🇪
Thank you so much for bringing this to America. Sadly I was in Germany a few months ago and did not know this existed. Will not miss it next trip. 🙏RESPECT 🙏
Larry tells fascinating stories. I absolutely love them. Hagerty has really good videos, but I look forward to Larry's the most. To hear the excitement in Larry's voice when he saw his own pictures in that museum was priceless. I wish his videos were longer.
Hey there, I'm from Germany and I watch JP's videos every day but you gave me a new and interesting point of view. You're also a very pleasant person to me since I saw you in the JP video "drifting in Willow Springs" for the first time! Thank you! Keep going and stay save 👍 Greetings from Germany 👋
I live 5 min footway from JP Performance and it’s heaven for car enthusiasts. It’s crazy that Hagerty comes here because I think on terms of video editing they are top notch of the industy! Never stop driving.
Larry, JP and the amazing video editing of Hagerty - it doesn't get better than that! 😎👍 And yeah, my jaw hurts now from smiling 43 minutes ear to ear... 😁
Really love it how JP makes so much for free! Me as a car enthusiast really enjoyed going to Motorworld in Munich cause its for free and got some special cars.. BUT JP'S experience is a whole different vibe! Love him so much!
Wow!!!! Wow wow! Everything about this! This guy is amazing. Never had heard of him! Love his attitude! Love the collection! Love everything about this! And thank Larry for all of the insane car content you’re putting out for everyone to enjoy! 🙏💚
"Wow, this is hands down one of the best car culture videos I've come across on the internet! Larry Chen always manages to capture the essence of the automotive world so brilliantly. Can't get enough of these visuals and insights!"
I am so thankful to Larry, and Hagerty for giving us this absolutely amazing vid! I've given myself a 3 year goal to go to Dortmund and spend a whole week visiting all of the JP Performance locations and just soak up the Car Culture. There is NOTHING like this in Vancouver. There are no people who have the amazing character that JP has. Bruh... I love it!!
I watch this guy every day and have seen many videos like this over the year… where other TH-cam personalities film a tour of JP… but your video felt fresh and special. I was glued to my seat even though I have seen all of it few times already. Nicely done.
I'm so glad you gave this 45 minutes of love. Felt like it needed every minute to capture the full experience. adding germany to my automotive bucket list.
Ich hatte keine Ahnung, das JP auch ein Museum hat. Man muss dazu sagen, dass ich seit ca. 2015 nur noch sporadisch mal JP Videos schaue. Was mich an diesem Video am meisten flasht, ist die Entwicklung JPs zu sehen, der schiere Umfang ist für europäische Verhältnisse einfach überwältigend und kennt man ansonsten eigentlich nur aus Amerika, das ist es zumindest, was ich erlebt habe.
Inzwischen arbeitet er auch mit vielen Leuten/Firmen aus der Industrie zusammen um seine Projekte und Visionen zu verwirklichen. Was er mit allen seinen Leuten erschaffen hat ist schon bewundernswert und wahrscheinlich in diesem Segment nahezu einzigartig.
Larry's point about access is spot on. I remember growing up and the only options you had were car magazines, and even then the publications that focused on guys like JP were either 20ish pages and you'd blow right through them, or were only published a couple of times a year. Thank you Hagerty and Larry for this series highlighting car culture all around the globe and doing so with such high-quality production and storytelling!

the Dahlback golf is why I got into VW's specifically. I need to make a trip to Germany and check out JP's places
I said I'm just gonna watch 5 mins of this and save for tomorrow morning but I end up finishing the entire video and I'm thought it's 10 - 15mins long but no! It's nearly a hour long and I can't get enough. It's so much to check out of JPPerformance. Jeezzzzzz this is insane and emotional to me just seeing such a collection in such short video. Madness
When I visited the PACE museum a few months ago I was wondering who shot all those amazing pictures on the walls and now I know it's all yours - awesome work!
A lot of goosebumps. I love JP and Larry.
Thank you for making this video, I have never heard of Jean Pierre Kraemer before and just hearing his story has brought so much joy! The passion, and love that he shares with people is what life is! What an amazing person.
The Dahlback Golf is something special. I remember seeing that car at the race track in ≈ 2003. At that time the fast cars had about 500hp, the really fast cars had 600-700hp and the Dahlback Golf had 1000hp from 5 cylinder. Absolutely amazing car.
I need to go to this place before I die. Absolutely amazing on TV. I can’t imagine what it’s like in person.
I really felt JP's passion, and your passion, as being something so deeply personal and genuine. Obviously you're in this because it's fun but you have such a deep appreciation for how you got where you are. There's a great mix of pride in your actions but with humility in your words.
This video is purely emotional. From smile to almost tearing up from happiness is crazy. I need to visit there someday and that is a fact. Thank you for both of you for an amazing video.
Awesome vid boys! New JP fan here now after watching him for the first time. Really cool setup and amazing rides😊❤!
Need to get myself to Germany.
So glad Larry has Hagerty backing him up.
By far the best episode you've done! You can see in JP eyes that this is his dream! The way he talks about it, the way it's displayed and curated, simply amazing! Congratulations Larry, you are a very "lucky" guy!
NGL I would eat burgers and hear cars on the dyno all day 😸What a cool experience. Some of the builds look so amazing! Appreciate the videos Hagerty, whoever is running this channel, we love and appreciate you. 😻
Thank so very much, I’m German living in South Carolina and following JP for quite a while now. But I think this was the best showing of his work I ever saw. Some goosebumps involved 😊 I’m definitely planning to go there now and see it in person
This is one of the coolest video's that Larry has brought to the channel yet burgers and cars damn what a combination 😂😊
Overwhelming car episode , at aw with the connections ; cars , people and the visions with a no limit dreams come true , epic !!! Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Jean-Pierre is so down to earth, amazing and successful gentleman. Thank you for sharing 😎👍
JPs shop has come up a bit since the hoonigan team came through. Great shop and cultural icon for the automobile and tuning.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST EMOTIONAL AND EPIC MOMENTS, YOU SHOULD BOTH BE SOOOO SOOOOO PROUD!!! NO1 ON EARTH HAS WHAT HE HAS. !!!
Jp kann mehr als stolz auf sein Unternehmen sein.
Thanks you Hagerty, for visit Germany and JP is the only one who can represnt germany better than this guy.
Danke JP für das du der bist der du bist!
greetz from germany!
This video was very emotional to me! I follow JP since 2009 in his first appearance on TV at PS Profis and later on since 2013 at his TH-cam channel JP Performance. Your chat in the G Class was quite wonderful!
Thank you very much for visiting him to show the US Audience was a nice guy he is and what he achieved in this topic.
JP is our kinda Jay Leno. We love cars and we definitely enjoyed the day in Dortmund. Men is special, unfiltered... always hard working. Much love from Würzburg 🇩🇪
Thank you so much for bringing this to America. Sadly I was in Germany a few months ago and did not know this existed. Will not miss it next trip. 🙏RESPECT 🙏
JP is by far the best car YTer worldwide
This is AMAZING! Thank You Soo Much For Being A Part Of All This Car Culture!
Very beautiful achievement, very beautiful backstory, and absolutely very beautiful personality! Thank you Larry, thank you JP!
So cool, thanks for letting JP Performance into my life. What an amazing dude
A dream come true. Just amazing. Congrats to this guy, we need many more!
Schokohasen!!!!!❤❤❤
Wish his youtube channel had English subtitles though 😢 Id love to watch all the videos. Jp please fix this for us outside out Germany.
It has. Push the CC Button top right
@@Epik-hm8ws Doesn’t work on any of his videos, it only shows German subtitles. It was the first thing I tried years/months ago.
Yep he should hire someone to make subtitles in English, would easily pay itself with the added revenue
@@Phil_T86 Ah ok, just checked with this very video.
on the PC you can have the subtitles automatically translated into English! Sure, it's not perfect, but it's better than nothing.
Can;t remember last time when I saw someone SO PASSIONATE about their dream.
Larry tells fascinating stories. I absolutely love them. Hagerty has really good videos, but I look forward to Larry's the most. To hear the excitement in Larry's voice when he saw his own pictures in that museum was priceless. I wish his videos were longer.
Hey there, I'm from Germany and I watch JP's videos every day but you gave me a new and interesting point of view.
You're also a very pleasant person to me since I saw you in the JP video "drifting in Willow Springs" for the first time!
Thank you! Keep going and stay save 👍
Greetings from Germany 👋
I live 5 min footway from JP Performance and it’s heaven for car enthusiasts. It’s crazy that Hagerty comes here because I think on terms of video editing they are top notch of the industy! Never stop driving.
Larry, JP and the amazing video editing of Hagerty - it doesn't get better than that! 😎👍
And yeah, my jaw hurts now from smiling 43 minutes ear to ear... 😁
Really love it how JP makes so much for free! Me as a car enthusiast really enjoyed going to Motorworld in Munich cause its for free and got some special cars.. BUT JP'S experience is a whole different vibe! Love him so much!
This was amazing! We need more moments like this. Thank you Larry for capturing this for the community 🙌
JP is just such a lovely type of person.
Thanks Larry! We actually *need* JP to build something like this here in Los Angeles.
Need. The burgers too of course.
This is one of the coolest things I have ever seen, I’m blown away
Jp ist auch auf englisch extremst sympatisch, echt respekt. Tolle Persönlichkeit
Loved everything about this video. Two dudes who love cars just talking cars and living their best life.
Wow!!!! Wow wow! Everything about this! This guy is amazing. Never had heard of him! Love his attitude! Love the collection! Love everything about this! And thank Larry for all of the insane car content you’re putting out for everyone to enjoy! 🙏💚
What a genuine, humble person. Adding a visit here to my bucket list!
I love how much international attention JP generated in the last years! Thanks for showing this to the international community!
Willkommen in Deutschland 🇩🇪
This will be one of my favorite larry chen video...
"Wow, this is hands down one of the best car culture videos I've come across on the internet! Larry Chen always manages to capture the essence of the automotive world so brilliantly. Can't get enough of these visuals and insights!"
I am so thankful to Larry, and Hagerty for giving us this absolutely amazing vid! I've given myself a 3 year goal to go to Dortmund and spend a whole week visiting all of the JP Performance locations and just soak up the Car Culture. There is NOTHING like this in Vancouver. There are no people who have the amazing character that JP has. Bruh... I love it!!
I cant say nothing just, i raise my hat, keep it going, salute, good fortune and success Jean Pierre Kraemer
Awesome video. Representing THE German car culture. JP ist just a great guy. Thank you.
I watch this guy every day and have seen many videos like this over the year… where other TH-cam personalities film a tour of JP… but your video felt fresh and special. I was glued to my seat even though I have seen all of it few times already. Nicely done.
Mmmm the Dahlback golf. As a VW guy and a big 5 cylinder fan that car was and still is a major inspiration for me.
Dude seems very humble and greatful. What an awesome setup too
So viel Liebe und so viele Details, die kaum jemand zu schätzen weiß. JP und Team 👍
I'm so glad you gave this 45 minutes of love. Felt like it needed every minute to capture the full experience. adding germany to my automotive bucket list.
I love this series. Keep rocking Larry.
Watching this and parallel 24 hours of Spa is amazing! Larry and JP, perfect combo!
I've found a place i'd love to experience for once. Mercy! This is AWESOME. Huge big up Larry for sharing these gems.
Ich hatte keine Ahnung, das JP auch ein Museum hat. Man muss dazu sagen, dass ich seit ca. 2015 nur noch sporadisch mal JP Videos schaue. Was mich an diesem Video am meisten flasht, ist die Entwicklung JPs zu sehen, der schiere Umfang ist für europäische Verhältnisse einfach überwältigend und kennt man ansonsten eigentlich nur aus Amerika, das ist es zumindest, was ich erlebt habe.
Inzwischen arbeitet er auch mit vielen Leuten/Firmen aus der Industrie zusammen um seine Projekte und Visionen zu verwirklichen. Was er mit allen seinen Leuten erschaffen hat ist schon bewundernswert und wahrscheinlich in diesem Segment nahezu einzigartig.
I have no words for this person! Only ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️!!!!
seeingthe Z31 om disaplay made me smile. My first Car was a 1989 Z31 300ZX 5spd\, will always have that Car in my Heart.
I'm watching JP every Day over Years. This video was so cool and your Pictures are really Art. I'd liked it so much, thank you for this.
What a dead set legend. Such a nice, genuine, humble guy. So good to see that.
Larry's point about access is spot on. I remember growing up and the only options you had were car magazines, and even then the publications that focused on guys like JP were either 20ish pages and you'd blow right through them, or were only published a couple of times a year. Thank you Hagerty and Larry for this series highlighting car culture all around the globe and doing so with such high-quality production and storytelling!
