I saw her again , mama's and papa's The Cord rules!
Yeah buddy congratulations you got it great choice.. as much as I love the darrin I’d take a 4 door cord 812 over this way more space and seats/seating position is better but visibility isn’t great
Well done sir 😀👏👏
darn! You beat me! Good job!
Finally, a song I recognized.
Yes, the Cord rules.
It was awesome to hang out with you at the museum! We can get together and talk cars, drool over them and have a good meal anytime!
Yeah totally. I can’t wait =)
Beautiful job of describing the detail of this car and showing where she fits in Packard history. You have piqued my interest. I have to go to Ohio this Fall and will definitely check out the Canton museum. Thanks!
It's worth the road trip! The collection there is stunning! I've known Gary Hussar the curator for years and he's always getting 'new' cars for us to enjoy.
Definitely worth the trip lots of cool stuff there
Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful
😍Beautiful Packard!👍👍
I own one of those.
Its about 2.5 inches long and has Tomica stamped on the bottom.
Awesome Packard and an exceptional presentation.
Glad you dig this one =)
One of my dream cars!❤
Thank you for sharing 👍😊
You bet I love these as well
Hi Jay! The 1940 Packard Darrin was designed by Howard "Dutch" Darrin, a fine automotive stylist who was a consulting contractor for Packard from 1937 to 1954. He also designed Kaiser's Darrin sports car of 1954. One of his stylish cues in design were the sloping doors on his 2-door models.
=) I’ve been look for the Kaiser darrin those are so few and far between
What an absolute treat !
Glad you dig this episode when I saw that for the first time I was like Gary you’re holding out on me I didn’t know you had a packer Darren lol
Certainly much more prestigious!
My dad loved Packards and owned a 1949, and a 1956. But postwar Packards were considered inferior and rightfully so. It's no wonder that they went defunct, leaving that huge, multilevel factory to rot in Detroit. It's so symbolic of that city.
Packard lost its way after the war in my opinion I think they died during World War II they should have made the Merlin smaller.. after the war in hindsight it’s always 2020 they should’ve merged with Pierce arrow and peerless they could’ve been the three peas under one roof.. instead they got catfish by Studebaker crooked the books. The only reason Packard bodied bodied with Studebaker was to survive the 50s and the only reason they died in the 50s was because of that move. Packard was one of if not the most prestigious brand America had to offer in the 30s outside of Duesenberg of course but if you talk to anybody that drove a Duesenberg versus drives a packard, The Packard drives so much better Packard is all about balance light steering. I’ve talked to people who have driven Duesenberg they said that they drive like an old truck not a new one they are more fun to look at then drive. In the fast Duesenberg I’ll head to supercharger if they made them with and without the blower without the blower they wasn’t very powerful..
One day maybe we will get to compare those that would be so cool
Hard to beat that Cord . 1939 Darrin was a sharp looking machine. I guess at 6' 2" you would have been a really tall guy back then.
'39 Packard, Cord all the way. 1941 Packard reminds me a little of aftermarket hoods that used to be available for VW Beetles until Rolls Royce threatened to sue; think that's due to headlights set into the fenders.
The '39 to my eyes was the best looking of the three !!!!!!.
Always a fan of all Darin and Dietrich bodied Packards.
Agree =)
This car is absolutely stunning. I can see this car in pre-war Hollywood driven by some blonde starlet on her way to the studio. The Cord is gorgeous too.
I saw a Duesenberg enter a show one time and every one stopped what they were doing as I glided by.. this would be that same thing what a beautiful car
Another really nice ride. This one is just uber rare to see today.
Which is a bummer if that car was sold today (stretches a little in the front tall windshield) it would be a hit
At first I thought the 29' Packards were tops for style, but the 1937-1942 Darrin Packards look superb! Thanks Jay for this excursion into Packard's finest looking car!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I think what makes the 1941 grill look taller is look at where the headlights are mounted
1939 Packard love the single grill 😉
Dare to dream ??? Rebodied to a 2 seat roadster shortened the wheel base 14 or a little more in inches and reduce the trunk length??
More of a Jaguar 120 feel 🤔 ☺️✌️
Wow I never saw that but you’re right this does kind of look like a bigger Jaguar XK 120Just a hood isn’t as pronounced wow that’s crazy
What a pretty rare, and unique car, Jay. Thank you for featuring it.
You bet I love packards going to definitely be featuring more =) while I was at the museum I shot 6 cars 4 of which are packards =)
Remarkably beautiful cars. 9:00 That's exactly how I engaged overdrive in my 55 Plymouth. WYR: 1. 1940 Model 2. Cord
That’s awesome I think I would go with the cord as well because I actually fit in that car the only downer with a cord is the
Visiblity
Some of the changes in the '41 model were adopted by Packard to address some of the problems of the Darrin design . Gorgeous it certainly was , but the changes to the bodywork as compared with the standard PACKARD convertibles , resulted in a slight loss of rigidity , and some scuttle shake on the move . This was fully addressed in the '41, with the addition of the lower sills and the changing of the door hinges to the front . As for the Overdrive , remember that in addition to the gas pedal controls , there was a LOCK OUT button on the dash , so that when you needed to get out of overdrive you kicked down the gas just for a second , and as the motor roared (showing you were back in normal high) , you pulled out the lock button to lock out overdrive . Some fancy coordination was sometimes needed on sudden steep downhills where engine braking was urgently needed !
Thank you so much for that information and insight I saw that lever but when I found the button map in owners manual it wasn’t mentioned.. which was weird
Jay…what Derrick forgot was the cast aluminum cowl that one of Dutch Darrin’s guys came up with…ala Duesenberg. This really gave the custom bodies the needed rigidity that Packard execs demanded.
Definitely a Cord!!❤
I’m not sure if you mentioned it specifically, but that signature sweepdown/notch at the back edge of the door is called “The Darrin Dip”. The car with Dutch in the picture 2:53 is the famous Kaiser Darrin with the unique pocket doors from the early 50s.
Awesome thank you so much for mentioning that =) going to cover Howard Dutch Darren in an episode one day as well as the next time we do another car and talk about some other cars he designed
I luckily got to see that car in person about a month ago when I went to canton classic car museum
That’s awesome. You should’ve let me know. I would’ve totally met you down there.
What was your favorite car there I was just there yesterday they just built a 1932 Lincoln v12 Murphy body disappearing top do you wanna talk about royalty? Holy shit that car was incredible. The paint was so deep that every time that I walked up to it, even though it was a silver car, I could see myself in it… I don’t think I’ve ever seen a silver car/dark gray that had that much depth interior was perfect a lot of times when people redo the interiors for whatever reason they don’t pick up material that isn’t the same or isn’t stretched right this was top-notch. I can’t wait to show it. I’m not entirely sure when we’re gonna get to it. I’ve had a crazy week.
@@What.its.like. my favorite car there was probably the cord 812 or the model A hot rod. The cord is so cool because it’s not something you see too often and it’s the first car with pop ups and one of the first cars with front wheel drive. As for the hot rod, I’m a big fan of American Graffiti and hot rodding in the late 50s and early 60s in general
I love Packards. I'd take any of them, I wouldn't care! Packard s all the way
Me too it’s always the Packard unless that packard model doesn’t accommodate me some cars tall people don’t fit in well
You have Exquisite taste brother, super cool ride!
These were and are spectacular super luxury, and legendary cars. These were the absolute right direction for Packard to be going, not the Clipper introduced in 41. The Clipper was a separate line, and should have been a separate brand. It was, but too late in 1956. Oddly, the bullet free standing headlights in 1940 was very passe. And, pretty much the only brands still not putting the headlights in the fender was Packard, and Cadillac. My Druthers: the 41 Packard, and 39 Packard Darrin. Did you know? Dutch Darrin continued to sell the Kaiser Darrin sports car on the Hollywood strip after Kaiser moved to South America? Sort of like the Avanti story, but it didn't last long.
I saw a black version of this car years ago in R.I. it was owned by Clark Gable and was for sale in 1988ish for $1M even. The place was a dealership/museum with all these incredibly rare cars that my friend took me to. Incredible.
Imagine what the car cost now I can’t believe some of the prices of some of the stuff this is an absolutely gorgeous Packard but unfortunately if you’re tall you can’t enjoy it i’m gonna go back there once a month and shoot some more cars next time I go back I want to compare the Packard with the cord 812 and show the difference is the 812 there’s a whole lot more space in.. The only downer is Visibility in the cord
Great story you know I’m a huge Packard fan there is at least 4 in the pipe line
Wow.. Finaally caught one when it goes live..
This one’s super late I’m not going to be in town the next couple days
Even with the low compression of that flat head Packard was thinking performance. Notice they place the exhaust manifold above the intake to prevent pre heating of the fuel mixture.
Don't know much about American 1940s cars. This is a beauty!! Thanks for showing!!
You bet =)
The 41 also had now conventional door swing vs the suicide doors of the prior years
With stunning looks, inspired by Art Decco styles, lovely cars, they were made great back then, thanks for sharing, cheers CB Australia 🇦🇺👍
This car was stunning bucket list (one day would love to drive one ) =) welcome to the channel glad you dig
WYR: 1. 1940, don't care so much for the 41 front end. WYR: 2. Wow! I would never have guessed that the Cord would ever come in as my 3rd choice but gotta go with Delahaye first, then Packard. Yeah, I'm shocked too! ")
Great choices =)
The obvious longer rear ends on the '39 and '40 models look more sportier than the '41 model shown.
1940 Packard…. I would want the sedan. I still swear I saw one at a Packard meet around 1980.
I never knew this sedan existed until a couple days ago crazy thing is I saw more pictures than just those two pictures of the sedan so I don’t know if there’s more than what was said to be produced because it was one year only I’ve seen multiple colors of cars unless it’s the same car they painted it like Carroll Shelby did with his cobra in the beginning..
That was a bittersweet day because that’s a car that I’ve always loved and I didn’t quite fit in the car for it to be a comfortable driving experience and they’re super expensive and they never come up for sale the crazy thing is I fit in a cord but visibility isn’t good..
The suicide doors on both the '39 and '40 models look more classy than the '41 models doors.
That curve in the door is a Darrin trademark known as the “Darrin Dip”
Thank you so much for pointing that out something I totally forgot to mention.. When I find a kaiser Darren going to talk about other designs that he also did =)
This car oozes style and exclusivity. It’s no wonder the biggest movie stars of the time owned them. I would vote for the 1941 only because it has the speed line chrome accents. They’re all stunning.
Great work here, Jay! WYR #1 40 Packard. #2 DELAHAYE!!!
Glad you dig this video I shot a lot of B roll watching it back was like watching XXX move for me I love this car BUT even if I had the money I’m not sure I’d buy one it’s cramped for me the cord could be had for a lot less without the blower (810) and more space in the car I also shot the 812 and that had more space than the Packard but visibility isn’t great
@@What.its.like.I'm surprised to hear that, because it looked like the Cord was pretty cramped as well. I had to laugh at your xxx reference, since I am regularly accused of watching car p0rn whenever I'm slacking off my chores around the house. Guilty as charged. Keep up the good work, buddy!
Haha yeah
What a fascinating tale you can tell, all based upon historical events, which still sound like something from dream land. I cannot stop loving the Packard, they were a rare opportunity for the introduction of spaciousness with style in every automobile they built.
Never a company to rest on its laurels or to produce economy vehicles, it still saddens me that they went under in the 1950s. Even at that time their vehicles were above the limitations of the big 3.
Glad you dig this episode this is one of my favorite episodes so far I’m a huge Packard fan in the mid to late 30s they were top of the heap in my opinion
@@What.its.like. I agree with you, the Packard's were always a cut above the rest.
39 Packard Darin for me followed by the Cord!
Sweet =)
Great looking car!
One of the best looking packards
I'm in Detroit, such a shame that fantastic car company lost out and watching that sad, old factory here in Detroit disintegrate into rubble and graffiti.
I watched a bit on the Packard plant that building was built to last think of how many years it’s been mostly Vacant in the elements and still stands.. I saw they started ripping in down.
Jay, that car looks like it wasn’t made for tall people. I can’t imagine you sitting in it with the top up.
It would be a top down only car lol
You think the Packard execs were blown away!
I like the 39 interior
The 40 looks like it has a thermostat grill. I think its such a fine design, perfect for me as I'm only 5 ft 6.
I think you said it was the 180 anyway the long limo, those little seats in the back would be perfect for putting your feet up on a long cruise.
I was going to pick the 37 Cord but then you mentioned the Delahaye, so I have to pick it as french cars of this era are absolutely awesome.
Thankyou so much for your efforts and time doing this, I know you work hard but nowhere near as hard as your fans in trying to decide what they like the best. You take care and I look forward to seeing another great show soon.
See yah.
Haha yeah thank you glad you dig the channel and this episode some more stuff coming when I get home =) 1933 Chrysler imperial is next
All of these models are absolutely gorgeous!!🤩 I think though I would take the:41 first , and the '40 second. 😎 Video!
If you think you are smarter than the previous generations, 50 years ago the owners manual of a car showed how to adjust the valves. Today it warns you not to drink the contents of the battery.
That’s crazy I just said that in the new video I don’t know what happened to our society, common sense is dead.. and honestly I think it’s all by design.
Episode that I’m working on right now is Walter P Chrysler very own Chrysler imperial.. and while working on this episode I found exploded diagrams explaining everything they don’t do that anymore
Okay, on to the choices- on the first, I'd actually go with the '39, mostly due to the front end and grill. For the second choice, it's obvious. The Delahaye. Yes, Darrin is great, Cord's great, but the 135 is just liquid car.
Sweet choices =) delahaye is a super cool car
In the first scenario, I would take the 1939. In the second scenario, I would take the Cord 812.
Sweet choices =)
Hi Jay!: What a GREAT Car! Like you, i think the 1939-41 Packards were the best looking made by the company. The Darrin bodies were probably the pinnacle. I know she's not the most comfortable, but that body was a sports car of sorts. They are not usually great comfort machines. I am not sure how Clark Gable fit in his, but he WAS kind of skinny! I bet it was just as cramped in his Duesenberg SSJ! (another GRAIL car, along with certain Bugatti 57's) I was also not aware of the other Darrin body styles either! Will have to research those further in MY Packard book! I actually like all three model years, would take any of them!!! Now for the WYR's. #1 Can I pick them all? ok, ok, I guess 1939. #2, Man you are killing me!! Going with the Cord here, just because of the supercharger. Again all three would be NICE NICE NICE!!
The cord is more comfortable but visibility sucks especially looking out the rear I’m going to compare those next time. Glad you dig this episode lots of packards coming =)
Great choices I can’t wait to find the other models and body styles
The front of the '40 model is the sportiest looking ! more forward appearance.
That Grey Cord on display is super gorgeous !!!!!.
I shot that too one day I want to compare those two
The '41 Darrin looked slightly "pudgy" compared to the '40 and '39 models judging fro the three model profiles presented.
Thank you for the tip on Bill’s channel, will definitely check that out. Choices? Impossible for me on the first one - all 3 a gorgeous. And while I think the coffin nose Cord is beautiful, the Packard wins that one (because it’s always the Packard). Thank you, great job once again! ~ Chuck
So glad you dig this video chuck I did 6 car that go around at the museum
1933 Chrysler imperial not just any Walter P Chrysler’s own imperial that one is next
The others 1940 darrin
1937 packard henney flower car
1926 packard 6
1937 packard invalid car (it had a built in wheel chair in back)
1937 packard 12
I was at classic auto mall and shot 41 packard 120 sedan it was a little rough
Going to mecum tomorrow hopefully get some hard to find stuff Kaiser darrin maybe
@@What.its.like. Have fun at Mecum - safe travels!
I’m out there now (not mecum yet but Harrisburg PA I can’t wait for tomorrow
I prefer the 1940 Packard by Darrin but the De La hay of 1937 would win easily, it just wasn't on your list. I like Cords, but the 812 doesn't appeal to me as much as the Auburn boat tail or the Dusenburgs. I own three Packards, five model T's from 1914-27 plus a few modern cars. I'm looking to add a really nice model A ford and a 1937 airflow to the garage but that's it. The Packard I want is an early twin six - they are incredible automobiles. It's a full time job keeping them serviced and cleaned.
If I may add a plug - "Detroit Steel Artists" by Kilkenny is a great book about the pre-war designers.
Seen a few at shows always yellow the kaiser was unique also a darrin 🎉
I’ve been looking for a Kaiser Darren to do for almost a year now the car is like a ghost everybody knows somebody that had one..
@@What.its.like. 👍 saw them occasionally not crazy about the sliding doors .
Just my opinion, but the 39 looks better. But all three are fabulous!
Honestly can’t go wrong with either of them any of them I should say I hope I did this car justice showing all of the lines what a incredible car
The cowl/windshield affair was a 'speedboat' design - if you look at watercraft of the era it's instantly recognizable. Darrin, of course, is (and was) a book until himself. Maybe not quite as out there as Lowey, but worth a look and he did a beautiful job on the full size 51 Kaisers. WYR: 39 Darrin for purity, then the Cord for (relative) practicality, driveability and especially performance since you gave us the 812 with the supercharger - at 0-60 in around 13 seconds or so. that Cord might seem painfully slow today - but it would have beaten a 77 Volare with a 318, lol.
I definitely want to cover more Kaiser Fraser on here I’ve been looking for a Kaiser Darren for almost a year I saw one at the Gilmore Auto Museum when I was there both times but I want to actually cover the car much as possible I would really like to see it drive because seeing them drive us to a totally different thing
Great choices
Thank you so much for all of that added information and insight as well this car was absolutely gorgeous one of my favorite packerd designs of all time..
1) 1940
2) Cord (the Packard is beautiful but the Cord is prob THE most beautiful of all time)
One day Going to go back and compare the two
The Darrin is\was a special one! Any chance on doing 1954 Kaiser Darrin?
Yes I want to cover a kaiser Darren really bad that’s been on the list to do for almost a year now it’s like a ghost I know a bunch of people that had friends that had one but I can’t find one but I’m not giving up it will be on the channel eventually I wanna do more Kaiser Frasers in general definitely a Henry J as well
Overall the Cord is stil the best looking car !!!!!!.
Episode for that next week =)
1: 1940 Packard Darrin.
2: 1940 Packard Darrin.
Tune: Sounds like the Beatles, but I could be wrong.
Sweet choices =) I chose that part of the song strictly for that reason it was the mamas and papas I saw her again last night because I actually saw that car twice I ran out of time the first time Bill shot the behind-the-scenes Cadillac V 16 episode and then I found out they had a packer Darren and I was absolutely in awe of it
@@What.its.like. Okay. I like cars of that era because there are no computers other than the clock and the driver's cell phone.
450 SLs are available at junkyard prices. They were the greatest of their time but completely forgotten now. I looked at one as a restoration but found restored ones going for under $4000. The restoration would have cost at least $20,000.
I reviewed that car last year and to date the worst car I’ve ever reviewed.. it’s nothing what it claimed to be, SL stands for super light and yet it weighs 3600 lbs, no company but Mercedes would advertise that as light weight.. just saying it was over priced $30,730 in 1980 which in today’s money 113,786.40 and what did all that money buy you... nothing in my opinion both the Lincoln and Cadillacs (79) are faster drive better seats are more comfortable you could buy both those cars and a garage to put them in for the cost of the 450sl.. I never got those.. they drive like crap they sit on the ground it’s hard to get in and out of doesn’t get good gas mileage. Costs a ton when things break. One day I’ll compare all three, everyone has a car they don’t like and that’s mine.. if you dig that car it’s cool I just don’t get it
@@What.its.like. They came out in the early 70s. Did'nt know they were made that long. I like the Mercedes 2 seaters the best but I don't like Mercedes or German cars in general. 3600 pounds is like an old Camaro, lighter than I thought. No Cadillac or Lincoln ever had the cachet of a 70s 450 SL. They were movie stars cars.
I seem to recall Lindsey Wagner in one.
I want to cover that car again but I want to compare it to the Cadillac and the Lincoln I just don’t get it you can sit on a concrete slab and have a better seating position than sitting in the car I get it it was about money but it is same goes true today just because you spent a lot of money on a car doesn’t mean it’s good..
This car not made for daddy's. It's a wealthy playboy model.
39 Darrin 40 Darrin
Jay, you know I love Packard's and that gorgeous red Packard Is my holy grail.
Sure, it may not be the most practical vehicle, but if you could afford one of these you could care less whether it was practical or not. You were making a statement! One that clearly said hey, look at me I have arrived.
I don't care anout a family sedan. This is my FUN car. The back seat is small because I don't ever expect anyone to actually sit there.
Jay, When you were doing the buttons switches and knobs, It appeared that there was a knob on the left hand bottom of the dash that looked like it pointed down from the bottom . I was wondering if that was for a power top or a vent or maybe I wasn't seeing something right?
I have no idea what that knob does it wasn’t part of the dash diagram that I neglected to put in the video.. I’m a huge Packard fan as well.. this was a bitter sweet one. Because this is another packard I’ll never own, because how costly they are and size restrictions, Doug demuro talks about cars he can’t have because he can’t fit and he is taller than me.
This car was stunning I wish bill would have got me on camera saying wait you have a darrin lol. 1 at time seeing this car in person.
Great choices
What sucks is, me and the curator talked car for a while that day great guy =). But he was saying it wasn’t always like that and 1930s era wasn’t always priced high rich people ruined it for the small collector.. it’s happening to the muscle cars now 6 figures for 340 cuda.. I told him in ten years time the 30s cars are going to get cheap ( not all cars some will still be unobtainable for the common man because of exclusivity)
@@What.its.like. Jay it's like that with everything. I play guitar and bass guitar and the prices of vintage instruments are exceedingly high. In fact I feel sorry for the younger generation of up and coming musicians. They will never ever be able to afford to own any kind of vintage instrument of any type.
It's sad because if you are someone who was lucky enough to have purchased one of these instruments decades ago before the value went through the roof, you now have something you can no longer take out and use to play music, because if anything happens to it the value is gone. I am in that same exact position with one of the bass guitars that I own it's worth so much now I can no longer enjoy it.
There is a reason for this and these ultra high prices. Most of the ridiculous inflated prices are created by the vintage dealers . But that is a very long story for another time.
Somebody commented and said that that knob is To lock out overdrive I’ve been on the road shooting cars it’s been hard to look at all the comments I can’t go anywhere in August I have to other obligations I need to for Phil I’m probably going to make it behind the scenes episode
@@What.its.like. overdrive lockout would make sense
Went to mecum in Harrisburg and was a bit bummed the stuff I’m into not a lot was there
I love this car, it epitomized Packard to that era. The dash and interior are beautiful, obviously scaled for the normal physique of that era. The lower body crease is interesting, it’s there but for no reason. Of the three, I would pick the 41 for the front end. Thanks for the informative video, you pointed out some interesting things I did not know. 🤓👍
=) glad you dig this episode I love the design of this
Beautiful car. I've always loved the hood ornaments on these cars. But it does seem cramped if you're a bigger guy, which I guess I'd qualify as.
All these cars are beautiful, but I would go with the '41 Packard...I like the headlights in the fender look. And I'd pick the '37 Cord...I should revisit that one you did.
I shot the 812 that was there that’s coming next week sometime =)
Hang on and I will go out and check my Hupmobile fenders and get back to you.
1935 hupp
Yeah, I look at this car and immediately think Nash Metropolitan.
Window shape haha
This is creepy! I just watched the cartoon that they showed at the start of this episode! Watched it at 7:30am on me tv!
That’s crazy
@@What.its.like. the internet knows....
Gorgeous car. Dutch Darrin was apparently quite the character and a bit too controversial for the rather conservative Packard Executives. So the story goes that when he was wooing them for the contract, he felt the need to drop his pants in front of them to get their attention. It obviously worked…….
Awe man I like that story it’s crazy that he was building custom cars for people in Packard was kinda iffy about the design.. maybe we should do a video on the top 10 best looking Packards that’s gonna be a really hard one to put together but I think this belongs in that episode I’m not sure where it would rank
I saw her again last night, Mamas and Papas?
That’s it someone just beat you for title
Was THIS the car Jeanne Tierney drove in "Laura?"
Not sure but it’s always been one of those epic Packards in my book
5he '41 isn't even sleek enough compared to the '40 and '39 !!!!!
Delahayes
I want to cover a delahaye one day =) great choice
I just don’t understand that interior! The driving position is odd, and it seems the car was built for munchkins!
Yeah it was weird the windshield was to close for me.. the cord 812 is a car I shot there that day as well and fit better inside
Oh…and try again Jay! A 1942 Convertible Victoria just sold for over $800k.
Actually...$885,000:

www.conceptcarz.com/valuation/10098/packard-custom-super-8-one-eighty.aspx
Prices for the 1940 darrin the 42 is rare.. and would bring more money
Modern cars are major boring sh@t compared to these beauties. I'd put one in my lounge room if I could.
I totally agree these were machines they don’t make machines anymore they make appliances.. and everything looks the same with plastic fantastic parts nothing is real anymore. Not even the driving experience
Interestingly, using Vehicles seems better(* rather than displays of disintegrating……..
Yeah I really don't like this car looks like a death trap. The front window seems like it was designed to decapitate you.
A great channel but its name is wrong and tells nothing.
I think it is a good name because you’re trying to figure out what it’s like..
