The CEO of W Motors speaks out about the VINwiki/Genius Garage Lykan!

[@klobbersaurus685]

It's so exciting that the manufacturer is supportive of this project. It's always wonderful to see this kind of partnership across the automotive world

[@CaseyPutsch]

Agreed!

[@fastfoodyums]

HUGE ups to w motors for this. This is class. Far beyond what I would ever expect from a manufacturer

[@iannoone7428]

It’s call business lol they are going now launch em all over the world . Free advertising

[@maanavchellani7115]

They haven't manufactured anything till now though! Lol 😂

[@CaseyPutsch]

This was a big surprise and huge honor. I can’t wait to visit the UAE and share the experience with everyone!

[@Threebs_]

I so badly want to see this visit with my own eyes (i live in the UAE) but that’d be too much wouldnt it haha

[@mooj0101]

Well done brother for you have come a long way. Have a nice trip to the UAE.. Love from your long time subscriber 👍

[@thebrassmonkey100]

So proud and happy for you Casey, and all you do to....well, can't say "give back" because all you've ever done for us who prefer our kool-aid flavored with octane, is just give and give. Thank you so much and also Sam, and the giraffe that stuffs himself into these beautiful exotics, Mr Bolian.

What an outstanding thing to happen, when people can collaborate and work with each other to showcase something special purely for the enjoyment of others. Absolutely wonderful.

[@dipstickjamming5532]

Shmee actually went there and drove old and new model. So when many were talking trash and claimed "it's not a real car" I tried to comment and link those dummies to Shmee video of his visit to W Motors. Drives me crazy when folks are quick to judge and talk trash without even doing basic research on the topic. It really shows those people ignorance. Thank you VinWiki for bringing awesome content and resources to Automotive community. Also Thank you To Casey for amazing Genius Garage content and showing/teaching ins/outs of everything Automotive and Racing. His channel is creating/inspiring new generation of next Designers/Engineers and even Racers. Keep great content coming guys and Thank you.

Wow… it’s almost unbelievable that this video got made. Big respect for all at W motors.

[@rcw198]

Up until now I was unaware that the Lykan was an actual vehicle in production. I thought it was specifically a car made for the movie. I’ve been to Dubai. It is an amazing city. Since you are going all that way you should take in some of the attractions. I highly recommend dinner at Atmosphere, the restaurant near the top of the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. If going try to book a window seat. It’s amazing having dinner looking down on the sky scrapers. A day trip to Abu Dhabi is also something worth doing. We spent a week in Dubai and will never forget the experience. It’s an entirely different culture than we are used to here. Everyone was very friendly.

[@gregmather3343]

Huge shout-out to W motors and their CEO for reaching out, very cool.

[@GreekPower]

That Avalon King ad at the end hits harder than a George Lopez intro at 2am.

[@LongTimeAgoNL]

Wow. Kudos to W motors to actually make such a cool and informative video!! I also actually thought it was just a shady money laundering 'car maker'. But they're actually passionate car people that are just not that 'well known' around the world!

[@brandenjones192]

Seeing that blue one completely changed my mind on the car. It looks amazing.

[@marcus_w0]

W Motors is like : "Well, let's build something like a Lamborghini - but not so tame and subtle"

[@CaseyPutsch]

Yes!

[@danielseelye6005]

Interesting irony there: Lamborghini was to be a "better" Ferrari, not so tame or subtle and now the shoe's on the other foot.

[@atticus6572]

W produces stunning designs and I commend them on their communication - this is precisely how you connect to the far community. However, I've never seen or even heard of their cars driven or tested. They're more myths than reality.

[@kerryL]

Bro I think you missed the point of the video

[@Eatongee]

Shmee drove the Fenyr late last year. He was escorted around town by the Hypersport. :) :) Cool!

[@maximiliankylen]

Love how W Motors reached out to you, big respect! Looking forward to see you and Ed drive them! ;)

At this rate I think Project Binky will get finished before the Lykan...

[@toddcaspersen8041]

Lol! Updates on binky are so far apart I just about forget about it, then there it is on my feed. Speaking of which, should be about time for a new binky vid, isn't it?

I think there are brackets on Binky that are as complex as the doors on the Lykan.

Vinwiki has been a big deal for some time but this feels like a paradigm shift of how big a deal this channel is going to go out on a limb by end of 2022 this channel will hit or almost hit 10mil (the fact this has under 60k views currently on a video i think will hit millions down the line feels cool to get to see this)

I am very happy and very impressed that W Motors are embracing this the way they are. They could have been like "Stop what you are doing! You are going to ruin our company!" The entire ideal that they are being supportive of this. I think if Casey was just building the car for them selves it may not have gone well. Because it is part of an educational process for teens and young adults made the difference.

Indeed, Casey is is quite the whiner and somewhat of a pretentious prick. Rob is a little more down to earth, but I don't think he's ever done an honest days work in his life. The man also still thinks strip clubs and cocaiñe are cool too evidently. Most of us gave up on all that by 25.

So that truck they are building has like some designation similar to the LM-002 or the 'Rambo Lambo'. It was meant to be the 'Spiritual Successor' to the LM. They brought in former engineers and designers from the LM project to have them help do the design. The thing is similar to the TRX. It has 730 hp and 810 lb ft of torque or something very similar to that and it's a hybrid. It's AWD. The vehicle can crab crawl. It can run on the electric motors to silently approach. The outside is bulletproof. The underside can take a blast from a hand grenade. It has a hard point mounting system for a weapon system of the client's choosing. The shifter is this fighter jet looking thing to increase power.
