Day 2: Driving my new Lamborghini 1,000 miles home!

[@petikoka2269]

I love seeing humble people winning.

[@ayaannadeem6814]

+systemspm No.. He just loves his car and puts out content to entertain us. Don't be jealous :)

[@Meeowwzterz]

+systemspm And? He earned it. Plenty of fuckboys on KZbin who inherit there parents money and buy the car just for attention and are clueless about what it can do. At least this guy knows about it and has been saving up and studying so he could get a fair price.

[@petikoka2269]

+systemspm study his demeanor. His body language. He's genuinely acting like a 7 year old who's spending his 1st time at Disneyland. He is thankful. Humble

must be scary parking your car at a motel I would probably not be able to sleep. great video and thanks for sharing.

Would love to see the look on a cop's face when they bust you at the Walmart thinking you're a homeless squatter, and you hop into your Gallardo when leaving.

[@jaimearredondo787]

Hahahaha

[@writerconsidered]

+Charles Godewyn that would make for an interesting paradox. I didn't have such luck when I was homeless sleeping in the back of a ford ranger. If only I thought to buy a lambo I would have had a free pass.

Thanks man!! It still hasn't sunk in! I walk out to the garage a couple times a day to check on her even after driving her all day!

Its so crazy to see him hitting 10k miles in the gallardo, now 8 years later he's hitting 10k miles in his Koenigsegg, this man has come a long way, love the success James.

[@TYG06]

a very long way and it great to go back to the videos to see how long he has come.

[@elijahpotter4724]

@@TYG06 for sure

[@sthr2110]

Don't take this the wrong way because I think it is AWESOME that you bought a car you enjoy so much. I hope it brings you much happiness. People keep making certain comments as though this is still a $200K+ car that they could never own. Truth is...they can be purchased for around $80k. Yes, that is quite a lot of money but it certainly is a far cry from original sticker price. He bought the car in an intelligent manner: he saved and bought a low mileage older model for a drastically depreciated amount.

[@mk2mister2]

Very well put!! I did the same thing with my Z4M Roadster. I bought a 2006 model 4 years ago with 11k miles for 30k. Now 4 years later, the car only has 24k miles and is worth about 27k and is paid off. While I do yearn for something newer like an Alfa 4c, the Z4M is still plenty fast for me.

[@jerrygraves6531]

The blue book for this car, just the default setting is over 100000 for one with 45000 miles. It's worth even more since it's only for 10000 miles on it

[@sthr2110]

+Jerry Graves They are readily available for less than $100K. I work in the auto industry and can purchase one for $75K consistently, for example.

[@sthr2110]

what a road trip this was bro great memory i remember it like yesterday you have come a long way and many more successful years to come

[@mrgylex123]

Love Super car owners that actually drive their cars! I picked up my v12 vantage last summer from texas and drove it 1500 miles to Boston. Best christening road trip ever!

[@mixflip]

that is epic! you can afford a Lamborghini but you struggle with $200 for a nice safe clean hotel room! I love it because that's exactly what I would do lol. I went to a car show in Socal and had to sleep in Victorville California for one night. the hotel was so shitty that I wish I had camped in a tent. I had red bug bites around my waist when I woke up. I'll never sleep in a cheap motel ever again. I subbed. I am like you. I have a day job and have other flows of income (youtube and Craigslist flips) so I respect what you do. I wish I had youtube when I was in my 20s.

[@janicegwyn9449]

I love your videos!. Love your attitude. I work hard for a living, too. I have a Z4 BMW but I am dreaming of a supercar. I love that you earned your car. It is a beautiful machine! Congratulations.

[@AlastorTheNPDemon]

Wow, very real person... very real super-car owner.... I never thought I would see this. I mean, I just saw your Lambo at age 26 video, and... well, let's just say that the fact the American Dream isn't dead brings tears to my eyes. Keep kicking ass, dude.

[@joerock5680]

Thats bloody awesome mate you can see how much you love this car, the excitement is jumping off the screen. It's clear you've earned this beautiful machine and not had it bought for you, much respect.

[@matthewroberts1397]

From not wanting to take the gallardo on dirt roads to camp too drive aventadors on off road trails and salt bed and a agera on an air strip designed for space shuttles.. you’ve definitely made it.

Amazing! I couldn't help but smile when you got your lambo!

These videos make me smile man, you're living the Lamborghini dream. That car looked so fucking good in that Grand Canyon sunset.

[@WyattHousePlanscom]

I was about your age when I took an Amtrak from Chicago to California, bought a classic 1966 Mustang fastback GT and then drove it to Indiana. Good memories you'll never forget. Still have that one!

[@ron999]

Stradaman, i think that liftmode is not good to leave it over night. Press lift only when you need it, and then put it down.

[@TheStradman]

Didn't realize, good to know!! I appreciate the info!

[@Josh-pb5eo]

From this to a Koenigsegg is a huge come up!

[@m-thusiast2924]
