My 3 attempts to buy Hoovie's cars...

[@user-od9iz9cv1w]

Like many Hoovie fans I saw this unfold through Hoovies eyes. He bought them kind of two for the price of one and then the prices doubled. So he had some big assets. When he was contemplating selling the first one, he was troubled by a big tax obligation. Selling off a car that had windfall profits would put an end to this financial concern. Clearly he wasn't ready to part with it and even though he was doing the smart thing by selling it, he found he just couldn't do it when it came time to go through with it. I think we can all relate to this. He felt bad. He sold the Diablo because he never drove it and never bonded with it so he cashed out on a windfall.

[@Jesus_christ333]

the diablo is so much cooler😭

[@nickmaclachlan5178]

He spent a pile on that Diablo though. Isn't that the one that was sat without a steering rack for months on end? I'm not surprised he didn't put tyres on it before selling!

he lost his mind when he got on the mopar forum with that travesty bird clone car that he overpaid for and then ended up going thru just to be able to drive it and the winged car experts told him the truth about the cars background and actual value. that car was actually Wrecked and totalled and then Clipped back together using another Body Shell.. he ranted and raved and hey he knows everything and those experts...dont. these are people who have been saving restoring and preserving wing cars for over 30 years......they can look at a Rivet and tell you if its original hardware in about .03 seconds. hoovies a real jerk...funny how he sold it shortly thereafter too. and it went to a non wing guy who has no clue. i used to be a suscriber too,till i saw the real hoovie in action.

[@regretabletangibility]

Oh damn?! Already that a happened??! Wow. I can't believe Tyler did make her sign a prenup.

[@Midnight.Shadows]

honestly I'm glad this ended up with a happy ending, yeah John Temerian didn't get the Countach (yet) But I'm glad the two became friends and still were able to make a transaction. I think one of the problems with selling a car like that, in hoovie's case 'letting go' is that he's actually one of the passionate people about the car, so often you get these rich people that just see it as a way to more or less just launder money or it 'looks good' on their picturesque mansion's driveway. As such, those kind of people really don't care and will sell just because of a good offer, but in Tylers case, and I bet that John probably understands this which is why they're friends and didn't grow a grudge: When you actually care about the cars like these two do, its harder to let go, I'm sure both of them have cars they wish they'd never sold, and in this case for Tyler, the Countach is the one where he doesn't want to make that mistake.

[@MichaelJames-lz7ni]

When it comes to Ed/Hoovie cars "for-sale", the sale is motivated to promote a partnering website ('Cars and Bids' or 'AutoTempest') or to generate content - most of the REAL sales happen off-website with their personal friend network. I also see that when Hoovie says he's going to sell something, half-the-time he refuses the bids he's sent, and he ends up keeping the car....

[@teddyboragina6437]

yes, when someone is selling something they are looking to make money. that's pretty standard.

[@MichaelJames-lz7ni]

@@teddyboragina6437 But you're guessing - truth be told, KZbin channel profits most-often pay for the vehicles, and the business-tax 'write-offs' mean that Ed/Hoovie pay ZIP for the cars. Since they fail to disclose the sales-prices of the cars they actually DO sell, their profit-margin is just a guesstimate.

[@Christian_Johansson]

Tyler Hoover is the human personification of "clickbait", he can't help but lie to get views and he has no problems with it. I would never trust someone like that, if my life depended on it I would rather go buy a coffin and embrace the end. Clickbaits and the persons using them for profit are the main thing ruining internet and especially youtube.

[@abigalanderson7494]

If I remember correctly, Hoovie payed 250k for both cars from a doctor

i met tyler, hes a really nice guy. i doubt there was any ill will towards the transaction.

I don't think there was either. Hoovie knows how iconic the Countach is and how much it's worth. He liked having it and couldn't part with it. I don't blame him, I'd have trouble selling a nice Countach that I got the deal of the century on either.

[@dillonh321]

Tyler has had a rough time for the last year or so. Between divorce and poor financial choices (renovating a farm and not paying taxes). So he probably really needed the money so he tried to get himself to sell it but just couldn’t because he loved it too much.

[@natec4359]

I never was much for selling to resale people. I know they have to make a profit but with Hoovie's notoriety he would have no problem getting at least retail for them. I have a guy right now that wants a bunch of my early 60s f100 parts to for pennies to resell when we know the same people. Maybe he's a better salesman though.

[@DustinHasVideos]

In general I agree but I disagree on this case because John’s business isn’t flipping cars quick. He takes in cars and makes them like new. He makes his premium from the prestige of selling a sorted car. I have friends who buy imported cars from Driver Motorsports because they believe (and usually true) that the car is more expensive but has been went through and will be higher quality
