HOW TO NOT LOSE MONEY ON CARS- FINANCIAL RISKS OF OWNING YOUR DREAM CAR

A slightly different format for today’s video, let me know if you like it!
Investing in cars is dumb. But owning something you have always wanted and protecting its value is always a good decision in my book. Last year I managed to trade my way into my unobtainable dream car, this 2010 Porsche 997.2 GT3RS, and since then their values have absolutely skyrocketed. On paper that seems great but there are actually a bunch of downsides for people who like using their cars as they are intended.
Here are my top 3 things that depreciate a collector car/ super car and my feelings on each. In between each is a mini-vlog to break up me yapping forever. Enjoy!
Follow me on the other things, I promise its not just cut downs from this episode:

No offense Vin, but this video is better than anything Hoonigan has put out in a long time. As far as the vlog style is concerned, it's interesting to know your take on the enthusiast market imo and I know you're passionate about it too so it's not forced. It could be cool to see you discussing it with other industry people. Cool to see the local scene as well. Whatever happens on the channel, thanks for sharing!

[@318isGood]

Oh also another topic about depreciation/devaluing - modifications?

[@vin_tra]

I didn’t event consider mods! That is a great topic. I’ve actually done really well with modding cars but I think my car was cheaper cause of all its mods. Crap! How did I not consider that 😂a

[@BenBrotsker]

I hope so too. Hoonigan was special because they had corporation-sized budget but made content like a bunch of knuckleheads who love cars. We probably won’t see that happen ever again, but if the former Hoonigan and adjacent KZbinr hosts could all build a new culture of content in the same vein (but on a smaller scale) then the value given to the global car enthusiast culture will be immeasurable. I think if anyone can pull it off, it’s Vin.

i can already speculate the future... DDE gets the old hoonigan warehouse, (which we already know.) DDE already has mike essa and he's currently moving his shop to the new location, and then DDE builds even further by carrying on as DDE, BUT by getting some OG hoonigan boys to intergrate into the business as well to do what ken WOULD HAVE WANTED, and i for one cant wait.. thinking about it now... you guys are literally making 2024 the best year for hoonigan viewers and DDE viewers. keep pushing guys, ill buy into any and everything!!

Vin is keeping the spirit of Hoonigan alive. We don't care about brands and corporations and all that other bullshit. It's just car stuff for car people by someone who actually cares about cars. Thank you Vin. It's great seeing all the fellas looking happy and well.

[@jeepnfmpowder]

As one of the older guys here (probably), giving advice to help get people in cars so they can get out driving I feel would be a good thing. There are a lot of people that look to people like you, Hert, Zach, and even Scotto for what to do on their cars. Not a lot of info out there on how to get a car, how to make the most of your money to get on track. All the hidden cost to get on a track event is a surprise to most, they think they can just show up, pay an entry fee, and let it roll... Help keep car culture alive!

[@Harry_Gersack]

Who's looking at Scotto for what to do on their car?😂

[@megansuefry5408]

It’s interesting that you have the same fears driving your $250k 3RS that I have in my M6 2000 Firebird Formula. I’m constantly checking the mirrors at stop lights to see if someone is coming in hot. A few other things. 1. Most of us won’t ever have a car this valuable so I appreciate you sharing this insight. 2. The repaint tips are awesome. 3. Thank you for covering several of the things I mentioned in my comment from your prior vid, especially the C&C. 4. It’s always great seeing the OG Hoonigan dudes. 5. Most importantly, most of us appreciate you doing your own thing. You’ve been making content for several years and have the freedom to create content you may have wanted to do for years. Looking forward to those ideas becoming a reality!

The rear view thing is real, regardless of price, if you just simply care about your car. PPL in traffic are the worst!

[@Tubes12AX7k]

@@vin_tra True. From experience, I'll add a few more - 1.) You're going to get small rock chips no matter how hard you try not to. 2.) Even if you park it far away from other cars, someone will park next to you. 3.) speed bumps that you didn't expect, and have to take at an angle. 4.) You're not going to want to drive it in the rain.

I’m looking forward to how shocked you will be with how well your channel performs. My favourite Hoonigan videos were always because of the personalities of the people on camera. Guys like yourself, Hert, Zac, Danger Dan, etc.. May not be the numbers you’re used to now but I don’t see why it won’t get get there. You’ve got the recipe and experience. Happy to keep coming back!

This vlog style is what is needed in the automotive community, as you said there are so many amazing KZbin channels that cover great builds but the average person can’t afford to build those cars without sponsors etc etc. you idea of talking about what it would take to buy/afford cars from a low to high scale would hit the nail on the head IMO

[@anthonyson9841]

This video is refreshing, it's not about the same thing everyone else is doing. Straightforward, honest information, without all the bs.

[@elliotnewton516]

You've stumbled upon such a cool niche with your channel already Vin. You're knowledge of cars and taste in general is hugely impressive, but I think (for me personally), your ability to chop and change cars has given you a far better understanding of the market than most. Keep it up, truly inspiring watching you! And your garage is the dream!

I was about to comment this on the Goodbye to Hoonigan video but I was afraid it was gonna get lost and figured I had a better chance of you reading this here so.. I never really cared for Hoonigan but I saw you appear in the DDE video so I decided to watch this and man, you seem like one of the most genuine, down to earth, sensible, full of emotion guys I’ve ever come across and even tho I don’t know you all that well, I wish you all the best on your journey and I hope you achieve everything in life that you desire and wish for. And whatever happens I’m sure that, like me, a lot of people will stick along for the ride brother. 🙌🏻

Thank god you doing this. It is better material than what hoonigan been posting for the last months.

[@McNasty43]

Ever since Wheel Pros bought them out, the content hasn't been the same.

[@SidyDidIt]

@@McNasty43it has been nothing but this vs that for like the last year which was cool at first but its trashed now

[@Harry_Gersack]

Does anyone have some insights on why hoonigan has gone to shit? Everybody is talking about that it's since they belong to wheelpros but I had the feeling it was already going down beforehand. Also why wheelpros has allegedly such a bad influence on their content? Why specifically? And why did they sell the shop? So many questions and sadly they don't seem to care enough about their original fanbase to explain it themselves..

[@ADSImagens]

Basically you're right. They were sold to Wheel Pros and after that things've changed. You have to understand that before that it was Ken and Brian that defined the kind of crazy content that we know for years. So now that they sold the company they have to follow rules put by the buyers that don't want the "Hoonigan" kind of content. Is more "arbitruary" and "responsable". And for the worst they started to doing the worst brand deals with huge car companies in the "This vs. That" like that Kia EV vs. Ferrari. We don't even have the crew working on cars anymore. So the guys that were part of the series basically quit and started their own things. What Wheel Pros didn't realized is that Hoonigan is not only a brand, is the people behind the scene and in front of the camera. @@Harry_Gersack

[@Harry_Gersack]

@@ADSImagens hmm responsible is not the first thing for me that comes to mind when thinking about how the content has changed. For me it feels like the videos are lower effort and more for the broad masses and not for the real car guys anymore. I know renting an airport or building a dirt track is not the least effort you can put in a video. But I see it like that: they rent the location and then they do the races and in one day they can get content for like 10 videos or so. I think compared to the hoonage and scumbaggery we know from years ago, that this is a easy way for them to make content. And from a technical perspective the videos have gotten really shallow. Not the true car guy content anymore. Probably helps to reach more viewers.. On the other hand I've recently rewatched a view daily transmissions from the donut garage and some of them had much more views than the videos from now

[@ZProoooo]

The point about mileage is so solid. Cars that have been driven have had some attention paid to them (especially older enthusiast cars). Plus, leaving a car sitting without taking care of it is potentially one of the worst things you can do to it aside from actually wrecking it.

[@AbominableJoshie]

You are doing the thing already. You are a part of the automotive cultural phenomenon that was Hoonigan. You stay connected with your friends from there, you buy cars because of your passion, you have your own unique perspective, and you're used to talking to camera. My deepest hope is that the lot of you guys all figure out that your contributions to that entity are valuable on their own as well and deserve their own deep dives. The "Oh, that's just Vin being Vin" or "Scotto being Scotto" brush offs to keep to the Hoonigan format doesn't apply anymore. You've got the content built in, and people will either stay because they enjoy it or not. Stop caring about what you think people want and just do you. And bring a camera. The rest will sort itself out. The happiest content creators are the most genuine ones. Hell, we saw Suppy smile today.

[@gustavofigueiredo1798]

I've commented the same thing under a lot of other comments on this video, but: I agree. Haha! Refreshing to see the wholesomeness of the people in here.

Glad to see you doing your own shit and happy to see it taking off, keep up the good work big dawg!!

[@JesseHires]

Cool cars, always. What I really enjoyed was the community and social aspect of it. Dropping in to see what others are up to, going to cars-n-coffee, driving, while your main story was talking about the financial risks of expensive cars. I guess that would be called the "B story". A lot of other KZbin channels out there seem like they are working in isolation because it never shows them interacting with the larger community except to do collaborations that feel too staged.

[@vin_tra]

I live for the community. Without it I’d have nothing to do 😂

[@midnitejmpr9429]

This was such refresher for me. Thank you for sharing some knowledge, I can’t even begin to explain how well this video was able to grab my attention and keep it. Already these couple videos have been great to watch, I’ll definitely always be quick to watch any more to come when I see them.

[@Ninjamox]

So i only discovered you with the recent DDE vid and have to say your vlogs are perfect for where you are at. It gives you momentum and freedom to grow in certain directions, and you are naturally really talented at talking to camera and sharing your enthusiasm. Keep going!

[@dbk81]

Vin’s ramblings are exactly what you’d do with a buddy just shooting the shit, it makes for great engaging content, keep it coming.

[@TheNudnikNation]

You are in a unique position compared to other KZbinrs and that is, your viewers are invested in you as a person. Your time on Hoonigan gave us all a chance to get to know you and feel as if you're a "friend" so to be honest, most of us are just curious what you're doing on a day-to-day. KZbin viewers are a voyeuristic bunch and we enjoy living vicariously thru the lives of people we relate to, & the same is especially true for car guys. We can't afford all the cars we really want so we enjoy watching others do it. Unfortunately for you that means you should just be a vlogger. Show us what you're doing. Even if it seems boring and mundane to you, it's a distraction from our own boring lives to watch how you live yours. I'm sure I speak for a lot of your fans when I say, we're just curious how you make a living playing with cars since that's all any of us really want to do ourselves. The other thing I'll say is, take advantage of your relationships with the OG Hoonigan crew and introduce us to your other car guy personalities. There are 2 keys to a successful KZbin channel; being good at what you do (I think that counts you out as a car builder ;-) sorry) and being an entertaining personality (that's your bread and butter). Jimmy Oakes channel does well because he's pretty good at both but where he really shines is his crew of friends that all seem to be having a good time playing with cars. Show us you and your friends having a good time playing with cars. We'll watch that, promise.

Your vlog style is grippy - it holds my attention. You’re adding a lot of value with your experience that people want to hear. You have a perspective a lot of people don’t. Love the videos! Keep it coming. Definitely want to see a finance video on how you think when buying / selling.

[@s.ol.5511]

Whatever you call this vlog/vibe works really well IMO. Your authenticity is what gets the views.

[@laynepalmer8690]

Dig it man! I’m a fan of vlog style content, I think that’s why I used to love tangents so much with the crew. Builds are sick but the whole reason all the old hoonigan stuff was great was because the personalities, obviously including you. So I think you’re on the right path content wise.

[@Yoshi-gz4rp]

Really refreshing and most of all helpful. For me at least these practical type of videos on being an enthusiast are important.

[@philipkingsford5477]

I love this Vin, the transparency you give to explain why, or why not you do things is so important now, as so many people and channels only show the 'cool', 'interesting' or 'amazing' parts of owning or having incredible cars and lifestyle. It's nice to know just because you have all these things it does not make your decisions easier. Keep these videos coming through! Im enjoying them alot as well as others!! ❤

[@Pocketdrummer79]

Personally I find that following someone on the inside of the car scene, watching them meet people, see their cars and share their opinions makes for the best content. I really loved Hoonigan's Carcain Abroad series and Scotto's Van series, and this video reminds me of those. Something about simplicity and honesty and real life setting makes it enjoyable. I would gladly watch more vids in the similar format, and if you go on a road trip, make sure to film it aswell.

Great video, Vin! Seeing the old crew will always be a hit with me. You're two videos in and already on my short list of favorite car KZbinrs. Be you! 11/10 on the video thumbnail too. 😂

also this was a fantastic video the cuts and editing were great literally did not have to skip any of it, which i have to do in alot of car videos these days.

I like this style of content aswell as out and about stuff, I'd like to hear about the raptors and other things! Honestly it's really cool to see you being your own person without the previous brand surrounding you. Keep it up man!

Love it Vin, I think about the same things and have the same worries, def helpful to hear you talk through it!

[@jsamuels2257]

Vin, you always deliver useful info in a practical, not-boring-us-to-death manner. You really come across as one of those frieds that happened to come up in the car game. Down to earth. So, yeah, I liked this video.a lot.
