What you didn't touch on is the use of the cars to create KZbin revenue. You must be using the cost of the financing and maintenance as an offset against income generated by your business. You may not want to share those details, but if you speak about the benefits of financing, you should give the complete picture. For personal use, I think financing a depreciating asset is a bad plan. But financing an asset that generates revenue is a good plan. Those that confuse the two may be in for some learning moments that may prove expensive. Also, financing an appreciating asset is a very good plan if you are into leveraged investments. In Canada where I live, your principal residence is a tax-free capital gain. In an appreciating market, financing your home is a way to leverage a tax-free gain. In a down market, it is a great way to go bankrupt. I believe your background is finance, so you no doubt have a strong base to draw on.

@@user-od9iz9cv1w I doubt he wants to reveal what he’s making in KZbin revenue, but knowing what other people make with similar channels and #’s of followers, it’s in the multiple millions per year. You’re correct on the financing of depreciating assets, but he’s not buying Toyotas and Hondas. At least half the cars in his collection are worth a bit more than he paid to double or triple what he paid. Those are the cars he uses to borrow against. The others he owns outright, or keeps for a while then resells to break even or make a small profit (G-wagen, Porsche, M8, etc)

So basically, apart from a handful of cars, all the rest of the collection is on finance. My one concern about this business model is this:- What happens if the market were to crash? Would you have to sell the majority to clear the finance payments? I know you choose cars based on what will get clicks & views (hence why the GR Yaris didn't stay around, because they aren't sold in the US & so didn't get the clicks & views). One other thing, you're paying a load for the finance on the fleet, but what does it cost to insure all of them? Are they on limited mileage policies? One other thing, the way this financing works essentially means that you're "remortgaging" to fund the new purchases (in house buying terms). Are the cars then effectively on "buy to let"?

I would suggest using only wheel soap and pH neutral wheel cleaner or even and all purpose cleaner, you ceramics don't give off the same debris as a steel rotor and are less damaging to the alloy.

Good video. I don’t know if you can discuss KZbin income or not but a more in-depth discussion on financing would be interesting. A lot of people think you just go get loans for cars then drive them around and pay the loans off somehow. From the comments they don’t understand finance at all. They don’t understand KZbin is paying for the cars (or the cars are paying for themselves). What you are doing with your vehicles is exactly how people buy investment properties - they use the banks money at a low interest rate and they take the rest of their money and invest it in things that make them passive income. Then take the passive income and buy more things that bring in passive income. Use leverage on items that have a higher value than the loan balance. Smart debt!

Sometimes you just get lucky with finance.. I took my 2021 AMG A45S PLUS in for a minor issue at Mercedes and to my surprise they asked me if I had any thoughts about selling it.. ????. Not really I said . But they told me they cannot get hold of new ones from AMG and even low mileage 2nd hand ones are scarce. So how much is it worth you ask. I originally paid cash.. No PCP's or finance.? I calculated I would have paid £19,400 in finance to date. They viewed the car and checked it over (7,000 miles in 18 months) and to my shock they were prepared to pay me £2,500 more than I bought it for new!!!!. Amazing. Mercedes have effectively GIVEN ME £2,500 so I can drive a car for 18 months and then given me all my money back. The money? I am planning on buying a new revised AMG A45S when it is released sometime in 2023 and the money from the sale is invested ( I did work in the industry for 36 years). Meanwhile I drive my 16 year old trusty Golf R32 until then.. Sometimes it all goes to plan.. So what happened? I sold the car back to Mercedes on a very hot day on Thursday .. Wasn't easy.. but I keep telling myself...its only a car..

His debt is smart debt. And he has money coming in from KZbin, made by owning the cars. What he’s doing is exactly what people do who invest in real estate. If you wait to buy a property until you have cash you’ll buy two or three in your lifetime. If you use the banks money you can buy three or more a year. You will always have 20% or more equity in a car / property, so you can sell it if you needed to pay off the loan. And with real estate you rent out the property so guy have income to pay the bank note. It’s more complicated than that, because you have to buy the property for a good price, don’t buy something that needs a ton of work unless you factored that into the purchase price, and make sure that it brings in a proper amount of income. I have one property I paid $80k for, it brings in $1,700 a month in rent and my bank note is $609.24 a month. I couldn’t care less about the bank note as the property brings in a great monthly rental rate, and I could sell it tomorrow for $130,000 or better if I put it on the market. That’s smart debt. It pays for itself and is worth far more than I owe. Bad debt is buying a tv on your credit card and paying 20% interest. The tv doesn’t bring in any income and it’s worth nothing if you try to resell it.

Was expecting a more in-depth breakdown on the numbers, as in how do costs accumulate when you compare an entry level like the Vantage GT8 to a mid-tier (GTR) to an end-game (Huracan STO) super car. Was at HR Owen and from what I understand, the standard is to have 30% down, 30% balloon over a 4-year term. This monthly obviously can be determined with a calculator, but if you add insurance, gas, servicing etc, then what do the actual all-in costs look like? Is it 1.5x the monthly? 1.75x? 2x? Just looking for more detail I guess.
@TheShmuseum2 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately you can't really give exact numbers because they vary so differently from person to person and different setups. In fact, it's actually not allowed to 'advertise' specific figures so I'm not able to do so. You should generally be able to get a better balloon than 30%, I'd think 40% after 4 years for most things, but 25/30% deposit would be sensible in most circumstances to cover potential overnight depreciation and negative equity risks.

If people are that inept in finance Tim warning them isn’t going to change their lives. People need to understand that KZbin pays for his cars. It’s all smart debt. He’s bringing in more than he’s spending. He’s not just buying cars to pay for from some other income source. It’s like the guy who wrote the book “rich dad poor dad.” I just saw a short video from him where he says that he loves Ferraris and when he wants to buy a Ferrari he takes $50,000 and gives it to the guy who runs his real estate investments - they go and buy a $250-$500,000 property (using the banks money and $50k down) that generates enough income to pay for the Ferrari. He doesn’t take his own money and buy the car. He uses passive income.

I kind of agree, not everyone is going to understand what finance means and what could happen if you don't keep up with the repayments however, anyone who talks to people about car finance like AMF, they'll make that quite clear

I still don't understand the reason of finance ...he is a millionaire and have to pay the cars after 4 or 5 years. And he can buy them personally.....so it doesn't make sense to me...whatever...😇

@@dr.go-fast financing allows him to buy more cars at once. Eg. He could spend 200k on a car and buy it out right or he could spend 60k in deposits on 2 cars and pay 3k a month. Each car makes its money so the more cars present the better

I find it interesting you can't see the back tyres trough the mirrors on the SLS. I remember once driving a RCZ R and it had the same "problem" but it had an option that made the mirrors go down automatically when shifting to reverse, pretty cool.

Ghosts are scary but when the designer of those wing mirrors pulls out a magic wand, I'm not asking question, I'm RUNNING. That wand is the actual ugly stick.

You need to get some Sams Detailing drying towels. Honestly they are epic and set a car quicker than anything I have seen.

Hi Tim, please don’t sell the DBS. It’s such a classic car. Great to have the SLS back and it’s looking fantastic and I’m sure it sounds louder.

Very interesting not sure what you did with buying the car then re financing on the SLS Black Series for example, but I like that idea. Did not think also about depositing for PCP balloon payment good idea that. Thanks for sharing Tim.
