Iconic.
He needs Jenny Craig
@@tdurden9532 LMFAO I remember that joke
Sad to hear. Did you hear? Accidental fire from Fluffy and he lost whole garage!!
T Durden you need to stfu
FFS, I spent all my money on cocaine!
As a German and life long driver of Volkswagen cars I bow my head and thank you for conserving so much of our industrial heritage in such a great shape. Thank you very much, Mr. Iglesias.
No! That sight of all of those beautiful buses was like looking into heaven. I just want one. I am so envious of his collection. It is beautiful and bitchen. 😎
I'd prefer if he didn't take them all for himself.
do you like fanta
@@cachelammotquabombtainha5m372 In the summertime when it is served really cold, then yes.
I've also driven Volkswagen cars during the last 50 years but I have NEVER seen such beautiful buses ever. My greatest respect Mr. Iglesias. Amazing.
such a good comedian and cool guy, protect this man at all costs
Never heard of him…
@@Sheepwillbesheep You should watch his Shows.
He seems like a cool dude. I've never found his comedy to be funny though.

Its funny because we have a bunch of siblings
Tbh the jokes been done so many times. George Lopez said, “Dog has more papers than some family members.”
The condition of these is amazing they look like they are brand new.
These buses more than likely didn't look half as nice when they were brand new :)
They look even better
Ok I don’t know anything about old vws did he restore them to stock condition or did he pimp them out?
@@f1v104 stock
@@f1v104 He says in the video that they are restored 😁
All BS aside I love seeing different people that appreciate different things. Even though I’m not a VW fan I appreciate seeing these taken care of and preserved.
Not such a bad guy after all
@@PhilBot4OOO Haha Cheers my friend.
I am a VW guy and really impressed by Fluffy's vision (enjoy the cars now, museum later,") plus thanks for busting a stereo type I had. None have risers do they👵🏻👍🏻
Plus they’re dumb expensive for a regular one imagine it hooked up like all of those
Imagine if they brought them back, exactly how they were, sales would go through the roof!
Of course, they can't. Because crash safety. And also, sales would most likely not go through the roof, lots of enthusiasts would surely buy them but the majority of average joes just want a comfortable, well equipped and cheap car. An old VW bus would only tick the last one. The new ID Buzz is probably as close to the old one they can make it and still fit the modern day demands for safety, comfort and equipment. Don't talk about the pricing though. 😞
@@Nukezone100 modernize the bus and i think it could tick all the boxes minus the cheap part. The design is nice and if it can be good on gas which i doubt it would. It would be awesome to drive.
@@Fluffypotato1990 its coming back as an electric bus its quite nice
@@Fluffypotato1990 modernizing the bus with safety regulations means it won't look the same anymore, the regulations prevent the proportions of the old cars to be fully present in the cars of today, at least it is what I think when watching newer "retrostyled" cars, some are nice but can't compete with the original at all.

Remember when they literallly got fluffy on an episode in modern family
@@ahmedhashem8764 Yeah they literally noticed how similar they were so they made a gag about him being his real dad
@@ahmedhashem8764 Brother, can you tell me, I watched one of fluffy video, the one where a prince invited him to perform in the middle east. Is it true what he said? Was Jeff Dunham the no 1 comedian in the middle east?
@@muhammadsyafiq1004 wh- why the frick would I know dude
Oh sheet, thats funny!!!
My dad bought a new one in 1965 to replace our 1959 bug. What a huge difference in room. We could use it with mom,dad and three kids. He eventually gave it to my brother in about 1972 and my brother put a Corvair engine in it. Had to change the ring-gear because the Corvair engine turned in a different direction. I learned to drive in that bus and took my drivers test in it in November 0f 1968. As with every other thing he ever had, my brother ran the thing into the ground. I am not sure if he junked it or sold it for pennies. I wish I had it now. Those things have become valuable. At one time you could get a used one for hundreds of dollars. This collection is the best I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing.
Materialism at its peak
Damn. Didn’t realize he had this kind of money.
this was the comment I was looking for. I would have never expected him to have so much money. Maybe he's just especially smart with it since he came from nothing to something.
Skepticalorie huh??? He’s a super successful comedian. They pay him a shitton for comedy shows and movie starrings
Smh
It came from the cartel
Comedy pays especially when you good at it
Damn good investment those are. All they do is go up in price and they are in great condition.
Of course they are in good condition, they are all restored
Of course the car has been flown to Germany and back
he can turn them to taxi in the worst case, or uber maybe?
koolyo2foots - not trying to be argumentative...it’s only an ‘investment’ if he intends to sell someday and earn a profit. Otherwise it’s a collection. Plus he clearly stated when he’s ‘gone’ it’ll be a museum...which sucks. Cool cars (vans) like these should be driven, Enjoyed, then passed along...That...is Jay’s philosophy.
@@deaterk yep that type of car could have gave so much joy to the people who drove them
great video, thanks
I love VW Kombi.. I takes me back in the days.... great memories during my college days.
I spent years looking for a vw bus to go on surf trips with my squad. Didn't realize this guy had bought every single one ever made
Lmao same
hahaha
I’ve seeing one in Florida homie idkwiytb
😂😂😂 right
So it's either cocaine or this, very inspiring.
Or pyschidelics
He's a comedian. Of course he's gonna stir up a joke. Don't get your sissy panties in a bunch
Jaime Villa you can buy a tab of acid for $5-$10. But enough coke to last you a good time?..more like $100 or more..
It meant to be funny. But it isn t...
@@mendATTgmailcom take your own advice, people can't make jokes or be sarcastic anymore without the fun police coming to get you.
In 1980 I spent 1 year traveling around Central America in a 1964 VW van. Good times and fond memories. 🌺
No wonder it is so hard to find a classic VW bus, Fluffy's got them all! Amazing collection, so nice to see all the vans so well preserved! I'd die to get behind the wheel of one!

How ironic.! a lot of times this vids harm the perception of known characters.
@@jorgenegrete1888 except it doesn't, the quote of a luxury, not a necessity is about people claiming stuff like phones are necessary to live

Hi bhopper
@@mm-dd-yyyy hey cutie
Love Fluffy and love VW buses.Stepdad had '69 pop-top camper we went to yellowstone in,and in my 20s I had a '76 regular bus.Also had a '70 Beetle for 6 years.Nothing looks like or sounds like or drives like these classic Veedubs.They were a huge part of the 60's counterculture (I really dig that man!).Many fond memories!
I wish I could shake his hand and hangout with him for a day. What a legendary figure of our time and hilarious comedian
Who’s gonna tell him those aren’t Iron Man colours
Just posted the same thing. Looks to me like when my colorblind buddy sends me pics of how he sees everything.
Caytoh he said they were close. Not exact.
@@charlenezeoli-davis3136 tis a joke
Ironman was never in brown and orange.
Perhaps that was as close as they could get with using original VW colors...
looks like a GTA5 online carage. same car x10 in different colours.
right because GTA5 has VW buses for some reason
🤣😂🤣😂
@@eksine no, the BF Surfer is our friend.
It does look like it
I’ve never seen so much in that great condition. They look fresh out the factory
My youngest son has been a huge Volkswagen lover since he was 3 years old. Fluffy's collection is so amazing

"If I scuff it at Starbucks im gonna cry" I think I'd probably die on the spot
I scuffed my Volvo 240 polar at the grocery store. Sad and panicked I called my husband, apologised and said if you tell my how to polish out Ill do it! Best work I ever did on a car, I miss that car. When we are older we really want to own a Beetle
What's the point in having these beautiful objects that you sit and park and look at instead of living life in? Scuff it?- buff it out..I don't know- work at something? Fix something ? DO SOMETHING USEFULL?
I would not drive any of those cars to get Starbucks or groceries lol
@I am the Besthow is that a better Investment strategy?
@@MAYK1NG What would you suggest people do Sasha? Stop their love of buying nice cars because they can afford it? Leave people alone. They have the right to live however life they want if they can afford it.
This is an absolutely jaw dropping collection. Thank you, Gabriel for preserving these amazing buses!
Somehow I never knew that people collect these and restore them, but I gotta say, something about these busses gives the same satisfaction as a perfectly restored and maintained classic muscle car. What a great guy!
I wondered why he doesn't own super cars.. then I realized..he too fluffy for them
Ded joke but ok
yeah that bus is perfect for him
To fat to fit in one
None None boo
I thought about that but then there’s OMI ina hellcat who has so many super cars and he’s bigger.
so this is why it's so hard to find these cars out here 😤😭
Fluffy bought em all😋 that's okay, I know they have a good home, dry and rustfree, so we can admire them when we visit
Too many surfers and hippies took em to the beach.
@@aprilmason1616 shouldn't be fine with that though, it's just like how the PS5 is hard to come across in stock because they are all bought off and in someone's closet for resale at $800+.
@@mgf909 and 3080s are like $1,500. 3090s are $3k
@@mgf909 Here's the thing tho. You are implying that collectors are scalpers. Which they aren't.
The guy has those cars because he likes them, not because he plans on reselling them for a profit.
I find it amazing that he’s always a comedian no matter the circumstances
Stunning collection!!!!!! I'm not even particularly a VW fan, but they're do well done, it is amazing!
There's no denying that these vintage Volkswagen cars are so pretty despite their simple design, the Beetles and the Vans are the best for sure.
My dad had bought a brand new, canary yellow vw in the 70s. He sold it on some 20 years later after an accident. I would give anything to have it back, spent the best years of our lives in that van, camping, fishing, travelling, etc. My heart breaks everytime I see videos on these beautiful machines.
Buy a new one and start a adventure with your kids
That's why I can't look at antiques or collectibles or anything that relates to some of my collections that have long disappeared I've lost about five buildings full of collectibles and artifacts and antiques and I can't even look at the roadshow anymore it just breaks my heart
@@arlenmargolin4868 how did you manage to lose five buildings worth of collectables.
@@totalcontrol4205 wow that's a good question and I'm sure there's probably a bunch of reasons why I lost all this stuff the first time I lost a mother load was at a storage place and they knew I had a lot of good stuff there and when I was just a little bit late with my rent as I always was I came in to pay the rent and the guy told me oh we had an auction yesterday all your stuff was sold so that was one building and let me tell you if I gave you a list of stuff that was in that building you'd be sad too probably and the next four car garage that I had filled with goodies was due to that the person that owned the garage was selling the building and I just had no place to move the stuff and I tried to get some help from some people who could sell stuff online but time was ticking and everything was taken yeah that's my story I wish I didn't have to stick to it but thanks for asking anyway
@@arlenmargolin4868 oh wow, that doesn't seem fair that they didn't give you time sort something out. Life lessons I suppose...buy instead of rent a garage or shed before buying things to put in them. I've had some steep life lessons like that myself. Live and learn they say. Good luck.
OUTSTANDING. I am SO glad you have Burt Reynolds car. The colors on your cars are awesome and stunning. Love your shows.
I never knew Fluffy had a Kombi collection. Damn, dude! I LOVE these things. Had one for a while. Near lived in it.
I can guess why he thought of converting this into a museum.
Enters Pawn Shop...
Rick : So how much you want for this
Fluffy : so it's valued 3million
Rick : wow, that's lot of money
Fluffy : so, how much can you offer
Rick : 300K
"300k and I am taking a big risk. I have to get it framed, I don't know if I'm gonna sell it, it's.. it's risky"
Imma call a buddy of mine so he can check everything out
Well they wont sell right away. My money is going to be tied up for at least a year. Would you do 250k.

I didn't think he had 3 mil to spend like that. Good for him.
Stiz anley that nigguh is worth like 20 Mila, maybe like 50 now that Netflix sign him up.
19sert 19sert his worth more then that his been selling arena all over the country! Like NBA stadium multiple times every week! Imagine 20k tickets every week!
That’s good I remember his old Comedy Central specials and now he gettin movie money...I’m super proud of him💯💯
He is buying them old many years and restoring them. It is not that expensive like buying old Ferraris or Aston Martins... Like average Joe can have 1 or two.
I dont think he spent 3 mil on them, he probably paid way less than that its just their value that makes the collection worth 3 mil.
Wow I love your VW collection, they're the best I have beautiful memories of them as a kid, great video!!
Respect, buddy! I had a workhorse of a 79 bus for 4 years. Will forever regret the trade that sent it to my brother. I also drove a 73 bug for the 8 months before I entered the USCG. What a great way to blow cash!!

He says he doesn't have a cocaine problem and needed somewhere to spend his money
I would have never guessed coke was his thing... Usually people loose weight when doing coke.
I know he was just making a joke but sad thing is a lot of them do spend all their money on drugs
That orange and brown “Iron Man” van is gorgeous. I’d love to just sit in that beautiful vehicle.
Been watching Mr. Iglesias for a couple days and it's great 👍👍 100% recommended
I LOST IT WHEN HE SAID HE GOT MORE PAPER WORK FOR THAT BEATLE THAN HIS FAMILY 😂😭😭
trump and his followers aren't saying anything about immigrants. illegal immigrants aren't immigrants though

He's more like the fat goofy cousin who wants to get started on the cake and ice cream way too early
Beautiful collection. I loved my busses.
Awesome thanks for sharing 😊
This made me happy to think where fluffy came from to where he is now
These VW vans are awesome. Reminds me of my Dad’s 1965 van we used for his TV repair business. Fluffy is so genuine, and what a gracious man for turning this into a museum after he passes. Good on you Fluffy.
Congratulations, beautiful collection 😍 ❤️
I didn’t think I’d enjoy this video because I’m not a VW guy but I did enjoy this. It’s nice seeing his serious side with some funny jokes. He has a cool collection of buses that have been restored very nicely.
Loving this guy!!!!! Love that split window gray bug!!
And I feel guilty over buying a 12 dollar vinyl record...
Thank you....damn, that was funny!
Cause you're cheap!
It's the best way to listen to music and music is good for your brain therfore vinyl is good for your brain. Can you really put a price on brain health?

Amazing collection !!
Beautiful collection....amazing...
Man over here with a 3million worth of cars and I can’t even afford one that’s only 2,000
Yeah I know the feeling. Been trying to get me a old VW Beetle for years and the cheapest I found was like $2,000 with problems and a $200 rusty frame.
You gotta be funny these days..n in hollywood
don't do it! it will cost you more to repair.
Perhaps your priorities are the problem. Here you are on the net, presumably with a smart phone...
This man over here with 3 mil. worth of buses and cars,
Yet I cant even afford a damn hot wheels...
It's strange bc most of the time during his shows he just seems like a normal and relatable guy, but then you see videos like this and you remember "Oh right I forgot celebrities are god status"
Nah, he is just a guy with a hobby, an expensive one but still, he worked for his money and has a really nice car collection, what is crazy about that.

What I give to spend the day with this smart Guy. He sure got into the right cars and Busses and every one of his are beautiful. Watching this brought back a lot of good memories for me some bad but most great ones. what I give to have just one more of these before I die. I had 5 V W's and three Pop Top Campers I wish I still had all of them now. Every time I see one it takes me back to a simple time in my life. Best collection I never seen
While I realize that 3$ Million is a lot of money, it seems like this collection should be worth a lot more. I was really shocked to hear this number, and until they actually showed the numbers on the screen, I really thought that I was hearing it wrong, and that they were really saying 30$ Million. This is a Really amazing collection! All of the vehicles are so shiny and the paint jobs look so fresh and clean and new! Thank you for sharing your Fluffy collection with us, it's really cool!
3 is coding and nothing to do with the estimate of their market value. They are more than likely not his to sell.
@@charmingferret5916 Charming Ferret what does 3 is coding mean? Also, why wouldn't he be able to sell his Own collection? That makes zero sense. It's his "Fluffy collection" and they literally said several times throughout the video that he Owns them. And you wouldn't make a video about a rare collection and then list anything other than their Actual value/worth? That would just be stupid.

Love the hippy busses fluffy, they look really cool, just like you!
Wow fluffy yur VW buses collection looks amazing bro💯☮️
What a beautiful collection!!!
Fluffy!!!!!! This episode is long overdue!
That looks like a lot more that 3mil in there
Gibbet Hoskins what I was thinking 🤔 lmao
Probably worth more in europe !
Gibbet Hoskins 3 mil was probably just the hangar space lol
It's insured for 3 mil but yes it would be worth more if sold
Wow...livin the good life with his prized collection... nice 👍
Clearly this man has never seen "LOST".
Thats a great scene when Hurley gets the van going down the hill haha after also finding the old beer. Thats a crazy show but I enjoyed it.
One of the best episodes in the series!
Shambalah!
