It’s Eric.. I’m coming out there, I talked to you before.. probably March!!!! Let’s get together!!!

[@KK-xq2mc]

Thailand is really the land of custom cars. There is a motto among teenagers that Driving as usual, I'd rather walk. Even a 200-300% import tax on cars can't stop them. Driving around the city

[@fookie02]

Yes! Work hard Drive Faster ❤

[@unirax8628]

buy 1 car give gov 3car 🤣🤣

[@seoulgt86]

I love how you have that genuine friendships with the people there, the car clubs. Pull ribs on one another and build memories. Everyone’s love for the culture is clearly showing. Dude, I commend you for this awesome journey and to the Thai people letting them know:HEY WE”RE HERE TOO. WE GOT A STORY TO TELL. Love it.

[@DefensisIndus]

Thai and Americans would get along perfectly with this amount of passion for cars 🇹🇭🇺🇸

[@nmstreetth666]

🇯🇵🇹🇭⛽🚗

[@tylaranderson8559]

I love Thailand's car culture. The detail that is put into all of their cars whether it is a show car or a truck that they use every day for work they all are amazing. And no matter what the weather everybody seems to be having an incredible time. Thank you so much for another great video

[@804_Rider]

Ive been wanting to for years, but I seriously need to head out to Thailand as soon as I can! The culture is unrivaled!

[@JaxHawkguy]

Your videos have made me want to pick Thailand for me first true vacation trip out of the US.

[@jamiemumby]

Great to hear Larry's perspective on the car/ Thai culture! 🙏😊

[@derrekjohnson777]

Absolutely awesome video. Fyi, not only does the USA need a car event like this but we need more car washes like Thailand. Hilarious that they ran around with your camera while interviewing with Larry.

[@CBMedia404]

The car washes here are amazing, they are everywhere and full inside and outside washes for $8! I get 2-3 washes per week between my 2 cars and motorbike lol

[@ZXLNT]

@@CBMedia404 I'm not sure thats the kind of car wash he is talking about..

[@ThePoxydonz]

@@ZXLNT LOL

[@harrisonchr]

This is an awesome looking show. You are lucky to have experienced it in person. And it's great to see the car culture is alive and well in Thailand.

[@mikewright84]

Happy Holidays Chad thankyou for all the content this year and all the best for 2024!

[@CBMedia404]

Thanks Mike, Merry Christmas and have an awesome NYE!

[@bountyhunter0071]

Hi Chad, this video was awesome. Thank you for the content. Happy holidays and all the best for 2024!

[@VTX1800MC]

❤ That was a happy ending. Thanks from Sweden. 🇸🇪

[@jackedMT]

I went to this event was so fun! So many sick cars. I saw it on your channel last year.

[@jaszm4713]

Had the opportunity to check out this meet when I was Thailand last week, just a couple days before heading back to the US. I’ve been following CB for a while and getting to experience this meet in person was surreal! I especially loved the drag races and drifting. I definitely agree that Thailand has an amazing car culture. Also got to meet Chad himself. Super awesome experience ✌🏼

[@rdrezi1717]

Whats this meet/event called?

[@grotesmurf1]

Loved it when the guys stole your phone.... priceless! Merry Christmas and a blessed and healthy 2024 Chad, stay safe man!

[@mujaku]

These car clubs are wonderful to see. Men are becoming artist mechanics. No need for war. We have beautiful cars. Call it art in motion.

[@aleximercedez2068]

Happy holidays Chad from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦 Iam very happy to see all the best car shows

[@Got_braaaaap...]

I adore the Thai car culture...the diesel-tuning and sound in particular. But here,in Belgium...yep,don't even try to lower your pick-up and work like them on the engine. You will never pass the MOT. I would love to introduce this here,it would be something new and exiting.

[@richandru4929]

Thank you for videotaping the great car show in Thailand. I will be back in the summer time . Hoping to see an event of some sort. Keep up the greatness.

[@jmsiii4751]

I miss not living in Thailand... Going back to retire Dec 2025. Keep having fun brother, enjoy your videos. I'm an old racer and open track guy, even an old SAAC member in the second Shelby registry.

[@srrtbb]

Wow, I love both of you youtuber channels! It's amazing to see both famous guys meets and cool with eachother! Awesome to hear positive feedbacks on the car culture there ❤️!!!!

[@dr.blunty5670]

I moved to Bangkok from America a few months ago. I’m a car guy through and through. Is there a list of car events somewhere id love to make it to as many of these events as possible. Hook a brother up

[@chriscaliri7977]

If you’re a single car guy Thailand is prob the place be. The scenery and cars are both very nice lol.

[@gumbomudderx7503]

There are a few car clubs here locally where I am in the US, but the problem is too many gatekeepers and rule makers instead of just a welcoming group that wants to have fun. I’d love to be there experiencing Thai car culture first hand. It looks like it’d be a blast! The only part I’d dislike is the heat! I’m a cool weather fan. When someone from atl is complaining about the heat, I know I’m over my head! Lol

[@JNAMOTORSPORTS]

America sucks, we live in a police state and a bunch of hacked garbage unless it’s a shop car

[@CBMedia404]

It was unusally hot early Decemeber! It wasn't normal, now its pretty chilly(for Thailand) actually, at night I'm wearing a hoodie while riding my motorbike. This will only last a week or two though, its called Thailand winter haha

[@user-ju6vm8ir4g]

ทนๆ เอาหน่อย😂

[@CaptainKremmen]

You want to be there right now. Thai people are "freezing".

[@brassmonkey7566]

​@@CBMedia404 kinda sounds like Florida...😅

[@davelowell3008]

Wow Chad, one of the best you have done, Thank you.

[@swatty7iron]

Hey Chad. I work in the Hearing Aid industry. I would invest in some ear protection for these meets. Full throttle pulls from 3 feet away are gonna haunt you at 50+ if not... 🤘

[@4739-g9c]

Love how you get into the culture and show everything not just yourself and only what you like. Lots of activity it's awesome 👌

[@stefanw7138]

Fantastic production. Larry Chen in the house! Welcome to Thailand 🎉

[@2dogsmowing]

This is why I need to move to Thailand because of the great car culture and especially the beautiful women. 😁

[@LibertyLover5103]

Best Christmas Video from Thailand. #1

[@Nellie-H]

Amazing as always! We'll be in Pattaya in February. Hope there's a car show going on. Merry Christmas 🤠

[@บุญพิทักษ์ประมูลทรัพย์]

Be careful of traffic jams. 😂

[@JennaSeaCali]

Hey @Nellie-H I’m going next months. Find any fun racing there?

[@Mikertt]

Thanks for taking us around Pathum Thani Speedway. I've been to many events in Thailand to photograph the models at different shows, but I've never been to Pathum Thani Speedway because I hate being out in the heat. Funny how the first model that caught your eye also happens to be someone I know fairly well. I think next time I might need to go out and visit the speedway if they have another big event there.

[@benjaminandersen1097]

this was an amazing insight in a small bit of thailands modern culture, and having never bin to thailand, it really opened my eyes, the freedom and openness, i love it

[@JuicyJLee]

The Toyota Hiace( Quantum in South Africa 🇿🇦) is Huge we actually manufacture them in South Africa taxi 16 seater for transportation they will always have 4 x 12"/15" wooders most are white 15" white wall wheels ..if our drivers would see these beauties they would flip

[@_JimS]

Music, Love, Motorcycles and Cars.....the universal language

[@forgottenknowledge8917]

I'm coming to Thailand, maybe in December or early next year. I've been to Bali twice already and loved it. People say Thailand is better so I'm going there next. I want to check out their car scene

[@douglasholloran6513]

Car clubs are still around and doing well. I go to a few car show events every year that are run by car clubs also there are plenty of smaller gatherings weekly often combined with local businesses and car clubs.

[@dmolina_damo]

amazing, meet, amazing tuning and projects, thanks, and happy new year, greetings from COLOMBIA

[@coyboybc]

The people there are so cool and have fun but they respect each other and no drunk idiots showing their asses or fights! The people in the USA can’t have something like this without some sort of trouble getting started!

[@MarcLawrencePH]

0:46 I love that shopping cart!! Hahaha! 7:07 Here in the PH, I believe the smaller ones (the less luxurious ones) are the HiAce Commuters (came only as a manual). The bigger ones, with more luxury and creature comforts, are the HiAce Grandia and HiAce Super Grandia. 11:51 Those would be the Toyota Altis. Known as the Toyota Corolla everywhere else. The Toyota Vios are smaller sedans. 15:40 That Vios 2nd gen is sick! One of my favorite generations of this model.

[@financierechris9566]

Your Channel is wonderfull hi from France ! love all those cars ! Have a good new years' Eve ! thanks for sharing !

[@samawan9473]

Hi Chad this Sam from Canada 🇨🇦 I saw you in Ptaya beach I took your recommendation to visit Pai ,love it here so beautiful! Thanks for the tip ! Love your videos!

[@reddskii]

Crazy Thailand. Their automobiles are so sick 😂❤❤❤

[@schuylerpitts7069]

They livin the fast an furious life and scene to the fullest!!! It’s jus like the movies

[@rccoleman670]

Insane vid bro. The quality and diversity….Yeah we Not getting anywhere close to that kinda action here in the states. 👏🏾

[@1oldskoolluvr]

It's great having friends like you do @ CarCult. I can only imagine what made it to the B-roll of that footage. 😂👍🏻👍🏻

[@TeajM1510]

Such a good video! Keep on going and greetz from germany

[@pierreaugustevinluan]

Connection Thailand Car Festival Is All Favorite Similar To The Philippines. Love It!!!!!❤

[@paullyDee16]

Ok this in our list next year for my 50th birthday in Thailand!!!

[@TheSwedishCarGuy]

Need to go and visit this place :D Epic video as usual!

[@elnavaflaco]

loving Tai girls they look like dolls❤️

[@Alsinsin]

Awesome event that I missed. And yes it rains in December like for the Souped Up Grandprix drag race. But that did not stop the fun for Under Up.

[@ScorpyDeNiro]

Thank you for another amazing Thai car event. Do they have a calendar with these events I can look up? That amazing Toyota monster truck on Jomtien beach was still there yesterday and last night, so I got to take some of my own pics. You're right, those shocks are crazy! Today it's gone.

[@Y_Not1]

Great video, car clubs are gone here in the US because they now would consider you a domestic terrorist group.😢

[@MyNameIsNotEmail.ItsEmail]

Car clubs are very active. They just try to avoid attracting certain types.

[@another_irate_user]

Your hanging around the wrong people or your not admitting your dangerous actions yourself.. either way if that's how you feel then your definitely doing something wrong.

[@focusedraider]

Cali got TONS of car clubs. Gotta try harder fam!

[@elisr357]

Only thing left is the Mini Truck clubs, and Bike clubs,

[@Y_Not1]

No I own a Highly modified high end car and happen to be a person of color so I'm always a target for the Police nothing to do with my actions at all but everything to do with being a dark skinned Republican.

[@rjanalexandersvingen2356]

YOU ARE BACK! Thanks man- GREAT VIDEO, Amazing cars, amazing girls, yes! keep it coming.

[@swizlstik]

Being a car audio fanatic, Thailand has an extremely large car audio scene

[@JFANDHISPEOPLE]

The car scene there is just beyond sick! The vision of every car is downright jaw dropping!, b safe , and its good to see "cream pai"

[@reedjacksonmaccom]

love that Larry Chen conversation. y’all get it. very good

[@107productionsllc6]

If I could give 20 thumbs up I would. What a great way to celebrate the various forms of car culture.

[@robbiesmith6417]

The MG van is very cool. Never seen one till now. I love vans and station wagons

[@mamahenshorts]

i loved when carcult took the camera its like i got to see another angle of the culture there how they react with each other compared to possible changing thier behavior being on a foreigner's camera.

[@tysonlowet9057]

Another cracking video. Thanks Chad!!!

[@davidhughes1634]

Great video Chad, as always, a big thank you to you, for bringing us the best content in Cars,Vans,Motorbikes & allsorts of vehicles,i wish you all the best & HNY 24.

[@alyn7d7]

Absolutely love all your videos man keep them going even if it rains❤

[@andrewoakley4957]

What is really lovely is that everyone is just happy to be doing their thing without the we're right and you're wrong attitude. Also, more silicone on display at the end than all the detailing companies brought to the show 😂lol still looking mighty fine! 👌 I like that you included the phone footage of your naughty friends borrowing your phone, that's a positive culture right there. 😊

[@kwokweng76]

great high quality video chad.........keep it up

[@richardipsen]

Every video makes me want to come to Thailand

[@kanenstuff]

I missed this last year and back in KL now. I will be in Australia next year visiting the family so in 2025 I will have to visit Underup. You should get a perspex cover for the rest of your bonnet/hood and run it full time.

[@particleinthewave8378]

Cool event as always. Thinking about moving to Thailand next year but have an MX5 and my beloved Triumph cafe racer I don’t want to sell. I’ve heard it’s incredibly expensive to bring over cars/motorcycles into the country

[@srrtbb]

Yes, that's true. Since it is a miata and it is a 2 seater convertible, you'll be charged a hefty tariff. My buddy shipped his left hand drive s2k back to Thailand after school about 10 years ago. The custom charged him 400 - 600k baht = $14k - $16k if I remember correctly. Your motorcycle shouldn't be too bad. Is best if you sell it and pick one up there that's already registered and right-hand drive already anyway. My buddy had planned to switch the steering wheel over. That will cost decent for parts, but skill labor in Thailand is fairly cheap/affordable. Good luck!!!

[@SergioClaudio]

Looks like great fun. And the models 😍

[@schuylerpitts7069]

The vans were the best part!!! Love the vans!!!

[@sheafeehan2078]

This is awesome. Would love some more off-road/overland vehicles!!

[@watpuvinkulkarntawat9939]

With a lot of mountains and forests, we got lots of cool off-road clubs out here in Thailand. The challenge they like to play is modding daily used small car like Honda city or Toyota Yaris into off road monster just for the meme.

[@Trunch_Bull]

This put a smile on my face 🙂

[@jameshaynes8489]

i like what they are doing their looks like a lot of fun love it all

[@steven9541]

Amazing models especially the one you said been in many of your videos🎉❤Great video as usual

[@mustang7275]

Dude chads friends taking his phone and talking to it that made m laugh my ass off

[@MidCoast]

Exactly what the day needed. Thanks man!

[@bonezdigitalmedia8297]

The wheels on the SC are hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

[@bertel9744]

Good morning. Another video with incredible vehicles. Is there a site to be aware of the dates of events like this? I would like to go there during my next stay in Bangkok. Thank you!

[@mattwhittaker6680]

lol chad. You shit ya self when your phone went missing 😂

[@alwishy2696]

The guy in the 77 Sparco shirt hit the nail on the head, these events are for car all addicts to enjoy.

[@EyeCanShootFL]

Could this be done in the US? Yes, and has been as you explained. It's not about insurance, as much is about ignorance and greed. 1. HIN is and was one of the best along with NOPI nationals. Matter of fact, it had every one of these elements but with American Flair vs the asian flare. 2. The greed has moved things like HIN out of th convention centers (like here in Orlando and Miami) and moved it out to streets where for the same cost to the spectator and the folks showing cars has gone up but the grade of the show has gone down. There are no more models and if there was they would probably have a pe***er now. They removed the sponsors, the music, the DJ's, the lights, you know........ everything that made it a show. 3. PC culture which you brought up I don't think has a lot of effects, it's all about promoters doing things as cheap as possible. And taking advantage of car enthusiasts. 4. Tuners Invade is the closest thing we have now which is a garbage "show" in which one of the promoters is a known crook and in my opinion a pedo... people know this and STILL go to the show which is run in the middle of the day in Florida. 100 degree weather in a parking garage, nights are in the 80's and 90's and 80/100% humidity so you can imagine how well that goes and they charge top dollar. The show sucks, it's just rev bomb contests and men on men action. No women nor models there. What you see in Japan and where you are at now is still a thriving culture and tbh it's beautiful. The women are beautiful, the cars aren't just stickered and wrapped SHIT like they have here. Rather, beautiful pieces of art. I put it like this. Here in the USA they had to come up with a term called "Respect the build" because people just threw wraps on their cars and called them show pieces. NO. I do not respect it as a matter of fact you're an embarrassment to the car community. They did that so they could protect the soft snowflake feelings of these kiddos. Where you are, people actually make an effort. Shit, don't even clean cars here. Our old car shows and HIN included had something called concourse judging. They would take gloves and run up underneath your fender wells and check for dirt. We cleaned our cars OVER and OVER and then AGAIN at the car shows to make sure there was no dirt. Our car scene is garbage now, full of lazy kids. They want to rev and burn out.. or worse.. Roll race (insert rainbow here). Thank you for sharing a real event! It's nice to see... :)

[@teatiwmanreacts3927]

awesome coverage man... keep it up... how i wish we have something this big in manila.....

[@patlad8433]

Awesome Chad Happy Holidays

[@madcowmax]

Glad I stuck around till the end!! Love your stuff, thanks for the constantly awesome content

[@sirponeline4489]

Welcome to Thailand festival.😊❤

[@ryanchock3777]

Bro this is literally Forza Horizon in Real Life!! And I agree with larry and you the car scene over there is SO Much Better then America.

[@nicholasfuller8097]

Thumbs up for the Chinese MG van love the color too

[@perspective75]

Yeah sucks the U. S. doesn't have many car clubs anymore. I don't mind them vans, & what they're doing to them there so...👍👍 If I can win one of my dream cars, I'm going to try to bring car clubs back in America 🎉

[@SirZeck]

I agree, your friend is hot. But on a serious note that is the sick scene they have, Thai really is a sacred zone for anything that has engine.

[@Big.O.]

Sick video Chad I could’ve watched 2 hours of this easily or would’ve paid for a Patron only video that was more spicy. 😁

[@Charlotte_Photographer]

Sweet! Love the Scirocco highlight. Wish VW USA would bring them back, but saleman have told me it would compete too much with the GTI sales. Back in high school I had an '84 GTI and my best friend had the '78 Scirocco. Wish we could get that MG Maxus van over here too. That thing look sweet! Nothing tops what the BoostedBoiz are doing over here with their 9 sec Plaidyssey Van... (Honda Odyssey van combined with a Tesla Plaid)

[@danielferb4282]

MG van is sick 👑

[@maplejakee]

CB media the type of guy to say "what the flip!" unironically

[@AbroadInThailand]

Howdy from Thailand 🤠

[@cartdoc]

So..this gig is the" burning man" of Thailand car shows! Got it!

[@cartdoc]

Chad,Chad,Chad.. you gotta get back on a motorbike and go find us a cool sunset view and a cold Leo!

[@taohoo9]

totally agreed with Larry's. Import tuner inspired us.

[@Marz-px6vx]

CreamPie looks so damn good. What a awesome event with beautiful rides.

[@chriswright9962]

Great Video!!
