That was really upsetting to me about how that tool reacted to winning a luxury car. His reaction was almost like well great now I have another vehicle to take care of! Why did that fool even enter the sweepstakes if he's that unappreciative?? This really pissed me off that some people could be so unhappy about winning something so cool. What a jerk!
@8:17 that's kinda arrogant, i'm no bootlicker but he's litterally doing his job. Dark tints are one thing, but tinted windshield? totally asking for it IMO
great someone with a ton of cars already wins... figures. Dude didnt sound that surprised or excited either. I would have blown my stack getting that news. Not like its a million dollars but still a once in a lifetime thing to win.
@@MarkfromNewYork There's no inspections so it's not like they would know. Plus I doubt the cops there would actively be looking for it while out on patrol. They'd likely only use it as an additional ticket to give to someone who is being difficult.
@@TheCobruhAlienat0r they would know when they see you, I have seen plenty of dudes pulled over for a a tinted windshield. In Lee county, Collier county and in Miami. Any cop doing their job would pull you over for something like that.
To be fair, is someone who doesn't have a car won, they probably dont have a lot of money. You gotta have some money so be able to daily drive an AMG. With gas, maintenance parts, and repairs, people without some money wouldn't be able to afford that, also insurance would probably be somewhat steep. As an AMG owner who is also a broke college student, that's why I don't drive mine very often haha
@@jevinkames yeah but guy was like “ another car was given to me “ if a new young person won this car he would keep it by using his mind. Parents would help and so on.
That winner from TN definitely had a "could take it or leave it attitude" during that call. Very funny, as these are the type of people who generally win these sweepstakes.
This cop is definitely an understanding person. He was beyond reasonable. Sounded like his intent was to encourage safety and make sure you understand the rules and that you’re not endangering others.
What's wrong with tinting the front side windows? Kinda defeats the purpose of tinting your windows if you can't keep and the sun and heat off of you. Now I agree tinting the windshield a dark tint is ridiculous but doing a clear or 80% tint is not a bad idea. I have an 80% tint on my windshield and you can't even really tell that it's tinted on the outside and you definitely can't tell on the inside, even at night. It does however help immensely with glare on the road on a rainy night and with trucks and SUV's bright lights shining in and hitting my eyes. It takes the intensity out of the light so that it's not blinding. I would argue that makes it safer for someone to drive at night because I've gone over the line on occasion and have gotten honked at because I couldn't see the lines on the road on previous cars before I tinted the windshield.
Ever thought of your next project being a V12 Benz? Got me a CL65 and it blows my mind every time I "drive" it. Insane torque for what is essentially a 2 door luxury car. Its got the Ying, and a whole lotta Yang if yuh catch my drift. BTW,..live in Canada.
Cops tried to do the exact same thing with my buddy. They can't write you anything until the car is in motion. In other words he can sit as long as he wants (basically playing who pulls out first) but as soon as you put it in gear and pull it on the road they can get you.
Mike, you got lucky that the cop was cool. i live near you and many cops are all about the revenue. I often wonder how streetspeed and durtymax jack get away with what they do.
I wish someone else had won the C63. The guy didn't seem to care. I feel like there are a lot more deserving people out there who would have been much happier!
Mike, got a tip for you... Go to a tint place get them to remove the windscreen tint and all others if you need, then get them to do ceramic tints dark all round the car accept the windshield and get that one done in clear... Now when you drive and you see a cop, always pull down your front windows and drive pass them, keep the windows down until your not in sight of the cops... that way you never get a ticket... done this many times...
AutoVlog Great Video I'm sorry to hear that you got pulled over and I'm glad that Officer was pretty cool and Congratulations to TJ for winning the Giveaway AMG C63
Laminate the inspection sticker and adhere it to the outside of the windshield. I do that with our state Park stickers cuz I have a UV film on the inside windshield of my 21 F350 and didn’t want to cut that film either.
Funny to hear you say Mount Mt. Lebanon as i live in the Mount Lebanon 🇱🇧 (i suppose they named your town after our country Lebanon 🇱🇧) great content as always keep us the great work you do
A state trooper did the same to me. Only difference is that he noticed my tints and waited in the street for me to leave the parking lot to pull me over
Really pisses me off that loser won, I would’ve literally passed out on the phone. He could’ve been way more appreciative it didn’t even seem like he knew what he won.
Yesterday I told my son I was getting the M3 windshield tinted. Today, I see your video and change my mind. The police in WA don’t seem to be as peculiar as in the NE and SE of our country.
Just do an 80% tint or a clear tint if your ultimate goal is to just keep the heat out. I did an 80% ceramic tint on my front windshield and you can barely even tell it's tinted looking at it from the outside and you can't tell at all on the inside, even at night. It does however help immensely with glare on the road and takes the edge off the bright lights of oncoming trucks and SUV's.
Cars for future give away that hit that 25-30k mark, can be fun (enjoyable content) as well as fun to own and drive. Volkswagen GTI, Golf R, Audi S4, S3, BMW M car (any), Porsche 981 Cayman, Macan, Panamara, (skipped Mercedes because you just gave away one, lol), Ford Focus RS/modded ST, Mustang, Chevy Camaro, Corvette, Mazda Miata, Maserati, Honda Civic Type R, Hyundai Velocetor N, Toyota Yaris GR, Kia Stinger. Hey, just a few cars, food for thought. Great video, awesome to see someone win that beast, a meet up video would be great content (maybe you fly out, film the delivery to him, some shenanigans and other interesting content from TN). Bro, get your Audi R8 inspected 😂 Again, great content, throughly enjoy the channel.
Take off the windshield tint and do a wide curved banner at the top instead. Pretty much gives the same effect without worrying about the inspection stickers and the cops won't bother you as much.
Hi Mike - loved the video, been following you since the throw keys out of the window. I’d be “woooo hoooo” if I’d won, but funny to hear you go “well you’ve 5 cars now” . Keep doing what you do, love the Audi, I have a TT myself but great to see kinda first hand the Audi I’d love. Keep smiling , can’t wait to see what happens on the tint
Another productive member of our society.... I'm sure he sleeps good at night with his hard work of messing with folks over tint on some windows... Only a handful of guys in the world could do that job... I'm sure he loves his life...
Ruh-roh. Busted by the po-po. Love your channel. Been following you for a while and checking in. Enjoyed those Ford ranger videos you made doing goofy things. I own a fusion! Ha. 2013 hybrid. You miss yours at all? Probably not when you have an amg C63. What a beaut! Wish my genesis was boosted. I'd go toe to toe with you I'd bet 😄
Cutting out for the inspection won't be a big deal. I got the same and it you can't even tell. They just need to be careful when removing the inspection sticker to install a new one. Check Amazon. They even sell inspection holder that sticks to your windshield and you won't have to cut into your tints.
Hahaha I parked at the Mt Lebanon police station in my catless header 5.0 with 15% tint for about 45 minutes because I was waiting on a guy from Facebook marketplace to buy something. Man I was sure getting some weird ass looks from those guys as they were coming in and out 😂
Wow 😳 he was really happy about the news of winning a C63 .. but maybe it didn’t really means a lot for him when it’s the fifth car he gets .. sometimes life ain’t fair .. I hope that he will pass it on and give one of his five cars to someone that needs a car .
There's a place called Mount Lebanon??? 🤔 I live in city's called, Santa Ana, Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Fullerton, Brea, Fountain Valley..but Mount Lebanon??
You're not allowed to have any dark tint on the front windshield at all in Pennsylvania... if there is just clear UV protection tint you can get away with it but any dark tint fails Pennsylvania safety inspection. 20-year Pennsylvania state inspection mechanic. You will have to completely remove the front window tint.
Luckily I’ve been through Mt Lebanon a handful of times with a tinted shield and made it through. They can be brutal apparently. Jefferson Hills also are tint warriors 🙄
You're making me miss the 'Burgh...lol. I've driven Rt. 51 more times than I can even count and I've spent time in South Hills as well. I grew up in Penn Hills and spent most of my time in the east suburbs of Allegheny County. Unfortunately I relocated to Tennessee for work 10 years ago.
Congrats to TJ! He was way more calm about it than I would have been. Sounds like an excuse for a road trip to TN Mike, and maybe a stop in knoxville 😉
I moved from Mike's hometown of Pittsburgh to Tennessee 10 years ago and now I'm trapped behind Confederate lines. Living in the Volunteer state is like being stuck forever in a Dukes of Hazzard episode.
dude reacted like he won a bag of rotten eggs!!!!
i mean he was at work, he could prob work as lawncare guy or sum and didnt wanna go nuts bc the whole neighborhood would look at him crazy
I agree
Some people react differently than others. Who cares?
I've shown more excitement at finding a coupon for a few bucks off my pizza takeout order
I’ve seen more excitement at an elderly bingo game.
true
Some of those bingo tournaments are pretty wild affairs tbh.
Lmao. Underrated comment. Seen you on rideshare videos. You an Uber driver?
I’d be a bit more excited if I won a C63 AMG !!
Lucky guy...
Should fit right in w/ his 88 rangers & 03 marauder.
“As we get older our eyes go bad”
Lmao. Officer called you an old man. Get that windshield tint off you boomer! 😂
Lol
When you leave Mommy's basement. you should you should swing by and give him a hand with that.

ok boomer !
Keep the tints just get her inspected

Many people have it, you get used to it. Who are the cops to say its unsafe, fuck them
Nothing wrong with a tinted windshield. You just have idiotic law makers in certain states.
Tinted windshield is pretty popular here in Arizona.
In certain parts of Illinois you can have limo tint and your windshield and the police won't say a word
@@crunchyblack2224 plenty wrong with tinted windshield, at dark it's pretty hard to see far away.
great someone with a ton of cars already wins... figures. Dude didnt sound that surprised or excited either. I would have blown my stack getting that news. Not like its a million dollars but still a once in a lifetime thing to win.
He had yard art,He'll probably sell it & buy a still!
Come and live in Florida - no inspection and no worries about tint due to the heat in Fl. Love to have you here !!!!
Yeah but you can't tint the front windshield in Florida either.
And catch a case of covid, baby!

I need a cop interaction for the views man. Dammit. Took forever. Then he hypes the channel like a champ. Mike is awesome
I’ve never heard anyone less excited about a competition win

@@thomasrossi31 that's the way the cops are in pa
I’d order a tow truck and have the car moved a mile or two out of their jurisdiction.
knew it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that windshield stood out! when we redo it we can put something less obvious as hell on there bro!!
You should get a Ford Mustang Gt as the next giveaway car. That would be sick!!!

"thats awesome thank you"
Living in Iowa I'm glad I don't need to do all that inspection bs. We can't have tinted front windows or windshields.
Cop:I can't imagine you see at night😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
I got pulled over today for my tinted windows got away with warning LOL
I just wanted to tint mine now it got me thinking 🤔 now
There is probably only 2 r8s that color in PA and your worried about being notified! lmaoo
That's why you do 70 or 50 on windshield, can still see inspection and no cutting. I've heard from a friend!
Laminate the inspection sticker and adhere it to the outside of the windshield. I do that with our state Park stickers cuz I have a UV film on the inside windshield of my 21 F350 and didn’t want to cut that film either.

How about an older model M3 or Porsche Boxster?
I cut around the sticker so it doesn't seem tinted I've also been pulled over for windshield tint on my mustang saleen
Always best to not get that chatty and chummy with police.
The winner has a Mercury Marauder. I had an 03 and an 04 Marauder. I had supercharged mine. Way to go TJ.
Love the R8 man, such a sick ride. Congrats to winner!
Shout out to your music choice 2Pac my Ambitionz Az A Ridah🔥🔥🔥🙌🏽
I could tell by the tone of his voice, you sure caught him off guard. I wish him Godspeed and a hearty congratulations are in order.
For sure he wasn't exited, he has four expensive cars. Nice video Micke with a big thumbs-up 👍
All right, so Ambridge, Castle Shannon, and Mount Lebanon are big "no-no" areas for my tinted G37.
Crazy! Lol. I got my windshield tinted too but I have a medical tint waiver in Delaware. Idk if Pennsylvania offers it, you should look into it.
Was about to say the same thing. We don't have inspections where I live. Just a money grab
Vehicle inspections in PA is a good thing. You should see the pieces of crap people drive here in CA 😂
@@Comeswoopfam I can imagine lol. Kina like FL. You can register dam near anything
I was waiting for how long it would take for this to happen lol
wow he couldn't have been less excited
Ironically from this angle the interior of the car looks pretty bright…. The tint is fine
I'm all for window tinting but windshield tint is just stupid
Have had a tinted windshield in NJ for over 3 years haven’t had a single problem. I’ve ever pulled over for other things and it was never mentioned
