When you add a new car to your collection, if you’re anything like Tom from Tom’s Turbo Garage, you probably take a deep dive into the history and lore of your new purchase. The video below is exactly that, a collection of Autozam AZ-1 stories to help people understand the climate in which this car was built, and its…
Kia’s Stinger GT is remarkably similar to Ford’s Mustang GT in that they’re fun to drive, about the same price, similarly beautiful, and pretty darn close on the drag strip. Given ideal conditions and an ideal driver, the Mustang GT will eke out a victory in the quarter mile, but as has been proven before, and again…
A team of Australian urinators/YouTubers have tackled the decidedly non-trivial problem of automotive urine-extraction systems. Having to pee while driving is a genuine safety issue, and I’ve attempted DIY urine management systems myself. These guys have made one very significant improvement that dramatically helps…
Over the past few years, legacy print magazine Motor Trend has built up a sizable and enviable digital video operation, including 5.6 million YouTube subscribers and an ambitious on demand video network. But earlier this week, in another sign of YouTube’s fading relevance to publishers and the increasing revenue…
Without the crowds, without the ‘booth babes’, without the hustle and bustle, the Tokyo Auto Salon is a gorgeous affair comprised of everything from widebody Porsches to drift cars to body kits for Civic hatchbacks. It’s an incredible display of incredible cars, and I’ve personally always wanted to attend. (Update: …
This is one of those stories that, at first, just seems simple and terrible. Unfortunately, the more that gets revealed, the less simple everything becomes. The whole thing revolves around one awful event: a 1981 DeLorean destroyed by fire. However, since it’s blown up on the local news and Car Internet, a lot of…
It’s fun to look back on BMW’s history through rose colored glasses and remember how great they were. The video focuses mostly on the E38-generation 7-series and the E39-generation 5-series, both great cars in their own time. There are also short discussions with BMW higher-ups; perhaps most interesting of those is…
Dutch fabricator and YouTuber Mastermilo embarked on a journey to make what he dubbed the “MiniGolf.” He took an already shortened VW Golf (which can be seen here) and made it even shorter, with frankly hilarious results.
John Cena has to be the second most-loved American celebrity made famous by wrestling, right? Apparently he’s also really into cars. It seems as though Cena’s been making a YouTube car show on his fiancée’s channel for, like, six months. Huh.
Ex-Vine star and sentient dab Jake Paul is, without a doubt, the worst person in the universe, regurgitating played out memes and destroying things in the name of “random.” Unfortunately, one of the victims on his tour of dumb was an E30-generation BMW 325i and we cannot in good faith let that slide.
He’s all over YouTube: the bro with a handheld camera and a “crew” who makes a channel where he ogles supercars, including the ones he inexplicably owns, and then racks up the views and the followers to a pumping soundtrack of bad electronic music. How can you follow in his footsteps?
YouTube user Attika has Legos, and is clearly not afraid to use them. In the past year, Attika has posted videos of some incredible automotive creations like a Porsche 911 GT3 RS and a Lego Evo. Admittedly, many of the early builds are (still impressive) Lego kit creations. But this one leaves those builds in the…
We’re fans of Formula One’s long-awaited introduction to the modern internet as the rest of us know it. F1 is now using its vast back catalogue of clips and race footage for good by putting many more recent bits up on YouTube, with a big push of famous moments from a certain grand prix during its race weekend.
Mmm... routine municipal work. I don’t know about you, but when I’m looking to decompress for a few minutes during a stressful day, I like to pour a fresh cup of coffee, sit back and soak in basic tasks carried out on a day-to-day basis, like a new road being built.
McLaren Special Operations built just 25 MSO HS cars by request when a customer wanted an even more ‘roided-out car than the 675LT. It was weirdly secret when it debuted, but thanks to the miracle of YouTube we can all now take an ungodly close look at it.
If you’re like me and commit yourself body, mind and soul to the uncaring void that is the internet, you’ll have known that two of the biggest automotive YouTube channels came together for a budget build-off using Craigslist and whatever local connections they could exploit. However, for those that haven’t watched the…
The reason all those stupid car rescue and rebuild reality shows do so well is because they prey on that part of your brain that has convinced you that you can get something for nothing, if only you get the right deal. Well, here’s what that looks like without a network budget, completed by one determined guy in a…
It’s one thing to read about how to fix your car on a forum or in a Bentley manual. It’s another thing entirely to watch someone else do it correctly on video. Thankfully, the miracle of the internet makes learning to fix your car easier than ever.
I have a hard time caring about supercars unless they’re being used for super-hoonage, so YouTubers bragging about sweet new rides they’ll only use to hard park in Monaco have always rubbed me the wrong way. Fortunately, YouTube star PewDiePie’s new ride blows all of those basic supercar videos away.
