Basically ****** of the car community. All he will bring is a whole bunch of folks into the market that will continue to one up each others dim witted ideas, which will lead to a lot of giant paper weights that they cannot afford to fix.

He is playing with his own dime. But keep in mind everything he does is a business expense and tax-deductible.

If you think he’s dumb you don’t understand the economics of YouTube for content creators. He bought that 996 C2 specifically to drive it until it grenades, because that’s good “TV” and gets clicked. As Atrox observes, these videos help the “996 Turbo brand” immensely, exposing the car to a whole new generation who perhaps like the headlights and interior after the old guard dismissed it. Is it smart to keep driving a vehicle when it loses oil pressure? No, but he knew that would get clicked and get him paid.
He just rubs me the wrong way, and I choose not to support him.
