It's "collector car" insurance, there tends to be a lot of requirements.

Excellent summary

[@justinbrandt419]

Wheels are period correct, they are the right color for the car. I like them. I would look into some custom ones just for tire options. Enjoy it!!!!

[@damstachizz]

The wheels are ugly as hell, but that's what the car came with so that's what they need to be when selling it. For driving around, much more subtle black with red highlight wheels would look great, and 5x130 isn't such a crazy stud pattern that custom wheels will be stupid expensive, even going HREs wouldn't be too bad. As for tyres, ed should double check with other veyron guys but going down from the custom 365/25R21 to 345/25R21 is only a 1.4% diameter difference which the stability control system shouldn't really care about, and that gets him on a size that actually exists. The worry at that point becomes load rating. Even the 355/25R21 PZero/Pilot sport 4 are only 107 rated, while the veyron is 108. In the real world, that means nothing. In a crash when the insurance company is staring at a $1.5m bill, that suddenly means everything.

[@NA-rp9kt]

So, to own the car will cost $626,325 in down payment/initial payments, plus $854,000 financed, plus $725,000 as a purchase option. That totals over $2.2 million, not including what could be a few hundred thousand in repairs/maintenance.

But it IS a business expense. Anyone can "write off" a car if it is used for business. You still need the money to buy it lol

[@carguy7627]

@@-Jason-L I understand. I am saying that I do not agree with this type of vehicle being a business expense and hence one of the reasons I would like to see the tax code rewritten. There are too many issues like this. However, I understand everyone won't agree and that's fine since it just my opinion.

[@markg1495]

Here’s the problem with your statement. Anyone can be in the know. You’re just too lazy to do research or ask

[@12b_combat_gamer]

Hey ed, im proud and excited for you that you got your dream car. I had mine but unfortunately had to sell it due to financial stress. It wad an 93 skyline gtt. Nothing feels better than getting behind the seat of your dream car and saying "this is mine"

[@gary_michael_flanagan_wildlife]

Wow I’m selling my mini Cooper for less than the cost of a key!! 🔑 haha

[@AdamDaix]

Ed is the man! Thanks for being transparent!

[@scottjua]

I would sell this thing as fast as possible… you owned it… drove it… get rid of it.

[@Tetrathegod]

Sitting in his garage will be worth much more, this is a 3 mill car in 5 years maybe less

[@jaymecm]

You should talk KZbin into sponsoring a cannonball run sort of deal.. a KZbin run lol. So many KZbinrs have been able to achieve getting their dream car lately and it'd be cool if all our favorite people got togeather with their KZbin dream car to do a run, Doug and the Carrera GT, you and the Veyron, Tavarish and p1, so on and so on lol I suppose I should say auto Tempest but be a good promo for KZbin itself a considering what it's done for us all, even those of us watching, seeing people we can almost relate to have their dream cars and what it's like to own them and use them, the most detailed car tours from Doug giving us a look all around at everything even how many cupholders lol, without you guys, all we'd have is the countach on our wall. So thanks, and congratulations for the 9 millionth time on your Veyron Ed :)

Dang I don’t even like renewing my registration on my corvette Z06 and mini Cooper. In North Carolina renewal is based on value of car. Is this how it works in Georgia too? Can’t imagine how much the Bugatti would cost!! Hadn’t watched the full video maybe he explained it

[@TheRealTomSelleck]

You pay a one time fee of 7% of the fair market value upon registering the vehicle for the first time. Thereafter you only pay for registration fees and immersions testing.

[@MIUBHI007]

It’s even better when there are 10 comments on a video that only has 2 views. I”ve caught (a few times) where KZbin has skewed the numbers back when a new video just comes out when hitting refresh multiple times (like once a min) to see the views being lower. I’d imagine it’s being done to pay the creators less.

what about your dreams

[@atheosxgaming]

"NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT LEVEL OF SERVICE" This attitude with companies is the beginning of me not giving a single fuck about them. Luckily i have no plans or means to be a veyron owner so i wont have to concern myself with it. But in principle. Fuck that. Sure its an expensive car. But a bolts a bolt. A belts a belt.

Thanks for laying this out Ed. You’re a true car guy extreme to pull this off.

[@binkleyme]

The wheels don't need to be black. They should just be... anything other than red

[@Ultimatebubs]

I guess that someone could buy the car from Ed and change the wheels if it really bugs them that much. What do you think that Ed would sell it for? 1.7? 1.8 million?

[@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes]

Congratulations! I’ve got a set of rear tires and rims from my Ford F-250 dualie that will fit on that fancy French VW if you want ‘em. They will fill out the rear wheel wells really nice!

I would pay double what you paid for your example for the Uzi ownership alone. Show me another rapper that can make Early 20 Rager

[@fazebugatti988]

i had a friend tell me he saw a veyron in atl and i didn't believ him, nice knowing there's one here now. I pray u bring it to caffiene and octane or at least the avalon car show on the oct 6th. would be great to see it out.

[@rickbrunsman9969]

So, he put 600K down, is paying a leas for 5 years at another 500K in lease payments. In the end, over 1.1 million plus taxes, repairs, and insurance and he does not own the car? How does that remotely make sense?

[@LoneWolfPrecisionLLC]

Lease to own bud

[@briankeery1]

Playing the long game......with the $725,000 buyout at the end, he's in for almost 2.2 (without repairs). The car all sorted out is probably worth that today. Because of the rarity of this model, in 5 years he's betting the car to be worth in excess of probably 3 - 4 million.

[@Poorschedriver]

@@briankeery1 exactly. Ed may act like he's poor and can only afford "cheap" exotics, but he's no dummy when it comes to finance.

[@DT-123]

@@briankeery1 Didn't the previous owner lose like a million? What if we have another recession and the car is still worth only like 1.5 million

[@briankeery1]

@@DT-123 The previous owner either bought high, or let the car slide on maintenance which drove the value down. Deferred maintenance was probably the reason.......can't say for sure.
