The fact that they helped him in his build, invite him to drive the original cars, and show him around, is the exact definition of being a car company supporting car people… well done W motors
interesting all the positive comments are at the top and all the negative at the bottom even with similar likes...
@@axelillopr wow crazy
I agree W Motors appreciate what Casey and Genius Garage were doing and took enough interest to know the students by name and what each student did. Thank you W Motors for your interest and wonderful experience you gave Casey. I hope to see the Genius Garage Lykan out of the body shop soon and driving. In time I see more development happening.
Thanks Casey and you great students for making a mock up into a real car.
It’s crazy to think they helping someone build a rep cuz he can’t buy the original is dope .most companies would try to stop u
@@fullplatestamp9644 The car itself is a kit car made on ruf .
I don’t believe any car is real until it has a Doug Score.
I give it 10/10. You can enjoy the videos now. 😁
@@hilanddoug That's not how true Doug Score works
@@8draco8 But my voice is less annoying. 😁
Doug sucks.
@@8draco8 yeah, whats a doug score without giving a hypercar a 1 for its practicality?
The Casey/W motors saga has made W Motors maybe my favorite manufacturer. The fact that W Motors didn’t pull a Ferrari and try to attack Genius Garage for the build was the first pleasant surprise. Then seeing that they were happy to provide some assistance and followed the build was even more impressive. Now choosing to give this rare opportunity to, I say this respectfully as someone with zero followers, a rather small channel based on the fact that he probably would get more from the experience than anyone has me sold on the company. That’s a really awesome story and a really awesome company.
:)
I think the image of W Motors/ the Lykan was somewhat tarnished because we had already heard crazy and unreal claims from the Emirates with the Devel 16, so probably we all collectively put them in the same "scam bag" together
@@CaseyPutsch man I love what you do with the students at GG. Having that opportunity is every hot-wheels-collecting, need-for-speed-playing 90's kid's dream
Arab Grifters making a 3-4 million dollar hypercar out of a Porsche.... Is your favourite company. Wow. Aim higher dude.
I have lost respect for Ferrari and even Mr. Ferrari himself. He was a really egotistical bastard. He treated one customer so badly that the customer promised him he would regret it. The angry customer's name? Ferrucio Lamborghini. And not only that, he fired a lot of workers and Mr. Lamborghini gave them a job. I heard the team is doing terribly in Formula One now. I couldn't care one bit. Schumacher and Raikkonen did the work for them. They didn't know what the hell they were doing before those two came along. Last I heard, they put the wrong tires on Leclerc's car twice -- in the SAME race!
I can feel the excitement in Casey's voice. He definitely had the trip of a lifetime and enjoyed it to the fullest.
yeah thats a paid spokesman for a fraudulent company is supposed to act dude. you think the dudes at ENRON were telling everyone their company sucked?
He talks that way about EVERYTHING! Probably talks like that about the giant dump he just took.
@@ezacher4634 Excellent point.
I have honestly been looking forward to this! Great story Casey.
Happy to bring you along!
The fact that W supported them with G's build gave me a sense of respect. To invite Casey to come enjoy the real deal just kicks it up another notch. Don't know of any other Company that would do that.
Agreed and thanks!
They got IMMENSE clout and good will from this. They gained more "advertising" from this one trip than they could have ever bought.
Good job guys!
As soon as I learned Casey was going to build the stunt shell into a car I was waiting to see W Motors go full Ferrari on him and send lawyers to put a stop to it. Instead W Motors did the exact opposite. Definitely earning my respect and proving to be a car company of real car people. Great story.
That's how you know behind the company there are actual car people there
@BEEF SUPREME how are you getting ripped off? Were you forced to purchase one of the few vehicles produced? I don’t think you understand this market and who these vehicles are sold to and why.
Learned a lot of things I never knew about W Motors and now I have a lot of appreciation for them especially for the Lykan and Fenyr glad that they had you over in Dubai so that you can drive their cars! Looking forward to more of the series Casey hopefully some top speed runs and laptimes!
Thank you kindly! Much more to come.
Go watch Donut Media video from couple months ago about Lykan, you'll learn more ;)
I like your bmw
Been waiting for this!! Been following Casey on instagram and the trip looked so epic!!
Thanks man! It was a crazy trip!!
Very impressed that W Motors got so involved with Casey. We all usually expect companies to pull a Ferrari and shut things down but not them. Kudos
casey is the only millionaire dumb enough and desperate enough for attention to work with them. why dont they work with real companies?
It was just a PR move. They need to prove to his audience, that the real car is significalty more premium than the car he built.
Love the videos... looking forward to the next car Trex episodes you guys are killing it bud keep up the great work
This video has changed my opinion about W Motors, tons of respect for reaching out to Casey and helping with the build.
This dude loves hearing himself talk.
Love the story and really loving the videos on Casey's channel about it. Can't wait to see the rest of the video series. Car trek 6 is amazing ed you guys are way to fun to watch.👍👍
This is awesome! Glad to see W Motors be supportive and stand behind their car
Thrilled you were able to share this with us! What a story and what a car :) I'm thrilled it is real!
Thanks for making this the top comment. so now I don’t even need to watch the video to know the answer. Thanks.
@@FukkUr1500 😭😭😭👍😂
I got goosebumps when he said that the production team at Lykan was complimenting his students. That's soo cool! Thanks for the great story Casey
Thank you kindly
Great video, but still not a single clip of the engine bay? And not a single sound byte of the car running up those hills? Kind of disappointing…
Hope he has better "arguments" then his last video - where he basically said "no no no it's all true nanananana" like a child :)
This car is the biggest troll of the 21st century.
Congratulations on a million and a half subscribers!!
Great video that was so much work thank you for all you did
I just love this story about the Lykan i probaly will never own 1 but it surely is a nice car. Also the story about it keeps being written its wonderfull to see a car company being so nice. Hopefully the few who can get a Lykan eventully will enjoy the hardwork it took to build and create such a machine. i wonder when cassey putch is done with his version of the lykan it might not be totaly the same but its gone be intressting for sure. Also many thanks for Vinwiki keeping me entertained during a reallife crissis and a covid lockdown + collecting these wonderfull storys on this channel ive been lurking for 3 years so this comment is surely earned.
Happy Xmas and New Year 2022 lets hope on a brigther twomorrow.
Cheers and thanks!
@@CaseyPutsch Youre Students at Genius garage get some real chances i dont see things like this happen where i live sadly (Holland). My last local Automotive Study school closed down this year there are to little with intresst to attend or are passioned to keep it alive and wrench. Ive never had a proper chance of being educated into serten automotive branches / i worked in a car&truck paintshop with industrial sized machinery but they tried get rite of me illegaly + i worked a lot with no proper income or papers due of my past i have a handicap payout. Ive been trying to get out of that. (last 6 years ive struggled) i can write a book or tell the whole long crazy story how and why things happend but im just a european dont know if Vinwiki would be intressted in my case might maybe be finished in 5 april 2022 before i can be publicly about it. Im stil passionated working with cars and truck + learning things even with my form of autisme i stil enjoy but nothing has gone easy for me. I truely Enjoy the footage i wachted over these few years. And how you help these young people ive never seen such a honest supportive group. Once i was around there Age i was told you are 18 figure it out. With no real form of support or help. Keep up the good work Casey.
@@CaseyPutsch th-cam.com/video/v_PPMl7JnAU/w-d-xo.html
The long videos of the trip are worth a watch. I find that car folks spend so much time and money on their life style they forget that the car community is global and super diverse. Their are other cool brands except what u know and see at car shows.
Best story Casey has done. The genuine humble excitement in his voice made it. Congrats on all you've done with the students you mentor. Not many like you left in the world. Your thr real deal.
Love the video Casey and great job W motors for actually supporting and not hating like most car companies
As soon as I knew about Casey gettin the stunt shell to build I was waiting for W Motors to go full Ferrari and send an army of lawyers after him. Instead they did the exact opposite. Really awesome and makes me a big fan of the company.
Casey u're a BEAST! Merry Christmas 2 you and Ed.
Love this! So much respect for W Motors!
So is there any footage of actual testing? Not just clips of a leisurely stroll up a mountain
Anytime a prototype is driven, it IS testing.
@@izzyplusplusplus1004 yeah, look at his history of this car. He said he was going to put this thing through it's paces, on the track... Not the grandma driving he did
@@floridamanHooning So, did you have hidden telemetry on the car, that even W motors didn't know about?
He did actually have loss of traction a few times on the sand.
Go watch some rally or hillclimb vids, and yee yee!
@@izzyplusplusplus1004 do you not understand the entire history of why he even went to drive it?
I’m really proud that those people knew your students by name. That’s honestly an honor, I know you know it.
For a guy selling a hypercar with headlights with gold and diamonds in them, Ralph Debbas is a super approachable guy. All interaction I have had with him was really enjoyable. All the stylists and designers were awesome as well. I want their new cars to be even more unique and stunning.
Cool, so it's a REAL 3.4 million dollar RUF with a body kit....
@CZINGER-21C he probably also thinks the Mk5 Supra is a BMW.
Nothing like actually being in the sky! This is one of the best car stories I've ever heard, considering the content and history of his project.
Thank you kindly.
Whoever is heading up PR over at W Motors is really on point, that’s all I can say!👍
Agreed!
Your Legacy is not what you build or accomplish but what you teach the next generations. That will last longer than anything else.
Genius Garage is doing that.
Thank god for that, imagine only being remembered for shilling on behalf of the $3+ million RUF body kit maker.....
One of my favorite roads where I live in Hawaii is up a 10,000ft mountain. it literally goes above the clouds. The air is cool, the views are incredible and the road is twisty. But it’s a public road popular with bicycle riders so you need to be mindful not to hurt anyone of course. I wish we had a racetrack here to go 10/10ths but it’s an amazing place to drive at 6 or 7/10
That would be epic! You’d love the mountain road in Dubai. No cyclists. :)
#kanakamaoli land
#shoots #menpachi
Name of the road ?
I was driving on a long downhill stretch of an east coast mountain highway or "skyway" as it's named... I was going 70+mph and a cyclist in thigh high spandex passed me going atleast 75-80mph! 🤣 the brass of that guy! One bad bearing or road debris and he would've been a grease spot 😬 turns out there was a time trial cycle race taking place that day on that completely open road with only a small warning sign on the more popular entrance side! I really hope the guy that passed me won! 😄👍
Maui?
Could not wait any longer for this!
I love that you got to experience this!
Super-interesting. Nice adventure Casey.
Oh and hey best regards to Ed and all at VinWiki from the UK
Great story, fun and informative. It was the perfect match to go with the coffee and donut I ate for breakfast.
If there was anyone who should have done the testing - it's Casey
No, IMHO Chris Harris should test it
Why? Casey is not cut out for that. Test drivers need to be good drivers.
@@8draco8 th-cam.com/video/v_PPMl7JnAU/w-d-xo.html
oh man you know the kids helping him on his build felt great hearing about W Motors knowing them and having things to say about them all.
Best video you've ever done.
Let's see the results of the student's work when able.
Thanks for the good work!
Just waiting on the body shop.
It's awesome that the owner of W Motors is such a nice, down to earth kinda guy. You don't see that often and I really look forward to more of these videos.
I live in Zagreb , Croatia. Rimac is also from here. Few years ago there was Lykan in city with test drive licence plates.
After that there was a talk between petrolheads that Rimac is doing infotainment system for W motors.
"I promptly got rid of my wife's Mustang as soon as I deterermined I was a pretentious twat"
I think you’re on the wrong video and there are 5 people equally as confused.
So much respect for W motors! They are real car people.
Very cool seeing car people connecting and helping other car people.
That sequential reminds me of the ikeya shifter to convert h pattern gearboxes to sequential feel
I hate this video because it may be the closest you'd get to an indept and accurate review, but at the same time this guy was literally given one of the greatest honors by being invited to drive this thing. You know he's gonna thread softly when speaking about the negatives of the car, and may or may not be the best explained, because even if they don't tell him directly to not talk too much negative about the car (I don't think they did anyway), he's still gonna feel guilty if he were to expose something bad about it.
Doug Demuro needs to tell us its quirks and features
On the next episode Casey is going to talk about how the duvel 16 is a real car with a completely justifiable price tag
Did you watch the video?
@@Skilan506 you mean the video of him sitting in a chair telling us how good the car is? If lycan want to be serious let them go to the nurburgring and set a performance lap that many companies have.
@@shadowninja569 I mean that the Lykan at least has a working prototype, while the Devel still is nothing more than a rolling chassis (that in my opinion looks like absolute shit).
@@shadowninja569 find the lap time for a Ruf CTR3 and you'll have a rough estimate 😅
Awesome video! Made me tear up!!!
The detail of the small Lykan in the wideshot 👌
The Lykan hyper sport is literally a glorified Porsche boxter or 911.
I'd rather have the 911
Ruf CTR3, which would annihilate anything short of a GT2
@@jsquared1013 still a kit car
So radical. Thanks for this guy's.
Thank you Casey for sharing. This is so cool because I don't think I would have ever learned so much about these cars if you didn't make these videos.
Honestly, wouldn't be surprised if the movie Lykan that the kids built runs better than the real thing in the end.
That was a fantastic video and story! I am so happy that the car is a unicorn instead of an 80’s BW supercar
So it's a 10 year old kit car scam being hyped up by the guy that sucks up to W motors every chance he gets, got it. I un-subbed from Casey's channel months ago when he couldn't get their balls out of his throat but I guess nothing has really changed. Embarrassing.
Dangg can't believe I didn't get to meet ya while you were in Dubai!!
I love that explanation for fear of heights, “in my brain it is the easiest way to die”, gonna use that every time now 🤣
Technically your potential (energy) for death is increased the higher you go
If a car builder does not manufacture its own engine transmission or drive train. It's a kit car.
Almost zero car companies make their transmissions and many don’t make their engines….
That means you can be a car builder too.
The blue one looks incredible
this was SUCH A GREAT story!
LOVE driving cars that feel totally connected and make you feel really confident.... BUT that still have that "something" that wants to kill you the second you turn your back on it.
I love W Motors, I just wish they would get into motorsports. Would love to see them in the Hypercar class at Le Mans.
That would be epic!!!
Who makes the transmission?
Seams he is trying to sell one! Legend says all the students went to DUBAY to work on the other Lykan's!
Dude is always trying to sell himself. Its cringey
This was so awesome 😎
The lykan specifically are movie one offs. Granted there is like 3? But it's not a production car, so.....
So outside of that, the rest of W motors line up is boomin'. Right?... Right...
They should help him out more and setup a program with him that makes cheaper version kit cars Casey and W motors designed. Then have the opportunity to hire students from his program or help them out find careers in other automotive companies. W motors would get a massive reputation boost, while Casey doesn't have to stress as much like he does, just him building cars.
I said the same on Casey's video but W Motors today, is how I imagine Pagani and Koenigsegg to have been in the 1990s.
I really like the subtle detail of his watch strap being of the UAE's national colours. Next time I'm in another country I think I might have to do the same.
I’m impressed you noticed. I had such a nice time in the UAE when I saw the watch band I thought it was a nice momento of their 50th anniversary.
This platform is Like Santa to me. I want to believe. I do watch Caseys videos and I Appreciate this car and other cool cars for what they are and how they make me feel.
The first Lykan was a scam to raise funds to build Lykans' second car. It actually was a pretty intelligent business model. The second model Lykan has made available (forgot the name) is an actual supercar. The Hypersport? Not so much.
I wouldn't call it a "scam", the buyers knew what they were getting, and much of what they paid for was the exclusivity (and bragging points like crystals in the headlights). Lots of startup companies have to do something similar, heck look at Tesla with the original Roadster in order to attract investors and earn money to develop the first Model S.
When he says, "without pretense, without a put-on" it is subjective.
First off, nobody stays in the con game long, nor is successful, if they appear fake or hinky. You must know that the best con men (automotive, or mattress sales, or internet hustlers) seem legit and are perfect actors. (original G Ponzi, Bernie Maddoff, etc.) People's vision is clouded by celebrity and money.
Ugh… and were you there?
@@CaseyPutsch So, there is no question. Internet, YT is cannon? Were you there?
@@Redmenace96 this video literally shows him standing in their showroom with multiple examples of their cars.
@17:34, excellent poster for "Genius Garage"
That’s awesome they have an air hockey table in the middle of all the cars
So where can I see the video he's talking about because it was 20 mins wasted waiting for a clip of the car going fast with audio.
I had a somewhat similar experience in Cyprus. My mom wanted to see Mount Olympus and I rented a shitty SEAT to do that. Sightseeing over, I headed North and found a rugged mountain road devoid of traffic, so set about hammering that course. I had a few white-knuckle moments and Mom was speechless in fear as I took blind corners fast enough that plunging a thousand feet to our certain death was a thrill. Finally got down to flat ground and hit Nicosia for the sights, then back to the hotel in Limassol (the Royal Appolonia) - great hotel and coming back in, hit a speed bump that was not painted. The rear view mirror had obviously had enough, detached from the windshield and landed in the back seat.. I had to pull over b/c I was laughing so hard!
It's so cool W motors didn't try stop this build from happening. True car guys for sure. Please build a floor jack that looks like Vin for the car.
This could have been 8 minutes shorter and told the same exact story..
Yeah... But did it make 0-100 in 3s?
I am suprised the car was that sorted.
Idk what it is, Casey just gives me salesmen vibes? Half of the story is self pandering and talking himself up to sound cool.
"It felt like a race car, which I know because I drive race cars" cooool
The evidence shows that he does not drive them very well either. He was 5 seconds off the pace in a field of rookies in a preseason practice session for a junior feeder category just weeks ago.
Same here, he absolutely hyped this up and said he was gonna put it through it's paces.... Instead we get and leisurely stroll up a mountain road. Not that I expected any less, they didn't let him drive a production car because they probably don't have any(why wouldn't they let him use one otherwise?) And it absolutely couldn't handle testing. That much was obvious when the car nearly lit on fire from heat shielding from driving lol
@@borismcfinnigan3430 actually it was 3 with no practice. Sir, I don’t know who you are or why you invest so much hate. I recall you making an angry comment making reference to me being delusional because middle aged amateurs don’t get tests. Well I got a test. I also qualified for the series. Instead of continuing to make hateful comments, would you like to have a cup of coffee together one day?
@@CaseyPutsch why don't we have any telemetry or good footage of the car on a track, or even a lap time by their chosen driver ?
Glad to hear this car is a reality, always thought it was too pretty to become vaporware
It's real but it's not pretty at all.
Just because the biggest Lylan fanboy got to drive one around before it caught fire, doesn’t mean it’s a real car. They built their own crappy version with Porsche parts. It’s not a real car. They’re paying Casey to defend the platform. He’s a lykan marketing shill. This is his glorified response video to Donuts video pointing out the lykan BS
@@meangreen99 true to that, to prove anything they should give it for a drive to Donuts or an actual journalist like Chris Harris
@@meangreen99 Donut media is full of BS, Casey drove the vehicles and got to show us footage of it.. Donut has nothing but their own suppositions and BS point of view.
@@socrateslandestoy6303 Just ask yourself one question, why has only one person been able to drive this car. A person who has affiliation with this company and is not independent by any stretch of the imagination.
So glad Donut Media decided to rip on W Motors... had it not been for that, we wouldn’t have this video! ❤️
Soo true! They r the real ones!!
I still don't know what a Lykan is other than it's not a kit car and not a 3.5 million car.
I guess it's a Hype R Car.
Has any pro driver that we know and trust put these cars to the test on tracks yet?
Cheers 🇨🇦
Even Chris Harris has drifted the hell out of the La Ferrari when asked to not do so by the maker, so that granny driving of the Lykan doesn't show anything from the car performances. Till then, it's just vaporware.
Pagani and Koenigsegg also shown prototypes in the past and they were beaten to hell by in house test drivers and the guest on the passenger seat, so its pretty obvious W motors don't want (or can't) show anything to support what they are claiming.
@@Spark972 Agreed
@@Spark972 this is VinWiki, not a review channel. The test driver that the company uses is a full-time professional who has competed for years in LMP1. There's only 7 in the world and they are all spoken for, but the Fenyr might get enough produced to eventually get one in the hands of a big-name guy like Harris or Harry Metcalf. How many CTR3s or Ruf RGTs or Chirons have been on those same channels getting slid around a test track?
I hope the students get a chance to do what you did and meet the W motors guys one day
Spoiler alert, while it seems like this definitely was a cool experience, and the Lykan certainly isn't vaporware, there's nothing particularly special about this car from a performance standpoint, and this video, despite the kind words certainly solidified that. Perhaps there will be a follow up on his channel of him ripping on it at triple digit speeds, some real metrics and maybe even some head to head comparisons but until then its still just a body kit on a Porsche with less reliability.
Its a 3 pedal vehicle. And that third pedal is no parking brake. It certanly is something special in todays day and age.
@@02lucy666 a manual transmission is nothing crazy there are many cars with them if you want one but most people don’t for many reason
I mean the thing we knew beforehand and definitively is that is has the ruf ctr3 drivetrain. Which has that sequential gearbox too 😄
Last time I was this early, Tina was still in perfect condition.
Is The Genius Garage Lykan Hypersport done already? I can't seem to see the finished product. I really liked the series and how the students were involved. But it seems the project will never come to a conclusion. Are there any video of the finished project?
Hi all.
Can anyone tell me what motor is in this car.
I love how they put in the part with Casey showing off the cars at W Motors and it’s like ok we have a Lykan and a Fenyr and pan right....a random air hockey table right in the middle of the showroom. I was like wait.....what? Had to rewind it to look again. 😂😂 It still blows my mind every time I watch one of Casey’s videos at how almost exactly alike our taste in cars are.
Is Lykon even for sale? Like they been advertising that car for so long and I don’t see any rich guys driving it
No, they only sold 7 and now they sell the Fenyr
There aren't any "rich guys" who own one. The people that own one of the 7 are in a different stratosphere, think mega-yacht ultrawealthy.
Genius Garage should have sponcers like crazy. Sponcers that give money just for a sticker on the car !!! Thank you for teaching the most valuable lessons of all. I'm sure you learn also. 🙏
Casey the only American to drive and work on a Lykan.
America’s lykan expert!
:)
I got to chase a Lykan from Baseline east onto the 210 west (Southern California). LOL, but I was in a 2000 Mustang GT.....so it did not last long by the time he got on the freeway.
This is the best one I have seen...damn impressive and then some!
The level of respect I have for W Motors just went up 10 times, and it was high before that.
Mine too, but then again, 10 x 0 is still 0
Of course it's not a legit hypercar. It's like saying that a Armani suit is the same as a tailored suit you bought from some one that run a drycleaner but also tailor suits. I would class it more as a sportscar. A hypercar entails it's on the edge of the most technological advanced sports cars you can think of.
Casey does bad ass things for the car people keeps that love going
