THIS is the content people want. No fluff, no drama, just pure good car content. And a dreamy Vin.. We're all super pumped on this channel and whats to come for you man.
Not really. Most viewers who follow Vin aren't car noobs, so tutorials for noobs are meh. More shenanigans and less tutorials for noobs please. Editing is on point though.
Our channel is the same no fluff but it's hard to get viewers for a just rebuild and fix Ferrari channel. But it will help folks rebuilding the same model down the road for information needs. But to get subscribers it's difficult.
Hmm i dont know if i agree. It is hard to make "shenanigans" content solo and with no space. This channel will be about what im doing with cars on a weekly basis. Sometimes itll be at the track, other times it'll be at home and sometimes i'll try to teach people something. @@jbgood71
Cool. Your channel, your script. Just giving my opinion. There's an audience for everything. Tutorials on what to look for when buying cars ain't my jam, so probably won't be a regular unless there's something more entertaining. You already have a following from Hoonigan, so no need to wish you luck.@@vin_tra
Bro , get it title and plates in Florida … We have no emotions here , do that and take it back to cali .. My brother in law lives in Virginia and all his cars are title and license in Florida , he doesn’t have to deal with no high property tax on them and Virginia emissions !!!!!
360 owner here, F1 boxes are fun if in full working health and properly setup which yours isn't, it probably just needs the PIS (clutch bite point) adjusting using a diag computer, headlights can be split to clean inside and polish lenses as I've just done mine, for spares there's quite a few good suppliers here in the UK that ship abroad - eurospares, superformance, scuderia, all supply new and used as well as Strada spares on Facebook that breaks a lot of Ferraris. Mines currently in bits for a winter refresh of everything - major service with belts and timing reset for upcoming ecu reflash, gearbox service, suspension overhaul, new breaks all round, re-paint side skirts and front bumper, headliner and minor seat refurb, a/c repair, engine bay refresh, injectors plus more that I've not remembered. If you need any advice id be happy to give it. Enjoy it
Heat exchanger is not an exclusive problem to just the f1 and symptoms of that are oil in the coolant or coolant in tranny oil which starts manifesting as diff whine.
@@vin_traafter watching Tavarish video again with his 430 Scuderia manual conversion with eag stuff. Looked them up didn’t think it was 30k for the kit but makes sense.
@vin_tra you should call Dan and Josh with Normal Guy Supercar. Not only do they have a RUclips channel, but they're also a dealership and parts supplier. I'd recommend a consultation and maybe a collaboration to get that Ferrari completely sorted and also manual swapped. Stay safe and keep it classy 🥂
I have worked in a shop that specialized in rebuilding engines like this. Your emissions problem most likely has to do with the camshaft gears not the belt itself. Definately a timing problem, the dino/tipo engines have adjustment at the cam gears the guides are weak. They have a habit of wearing out, almost immediately in some cases, going from 1000 RPM to 8500K almost instantly has it's drawbacks. The cam(s) is likely floating between two positions getting the car to pass emissions sometimes. This being a 1999 car it likely got this problem early and the owner was chasing the issue. it sucks. could be the cams themselves too... but it sounds healthy enough. just like 2 siamese b18C5's . I've driven this one F1 and 6 speed. the F1 is kind of more fun. This one was my favorite until i drove a 458.
@@716tg3 You're welcome. Emissions Controls are not common knowledge. I've replaced enough timing belts on honda D-series to get them to pass the Ontario E-test to know. On a side note, Vin should be really careful with that reverse lever. It is very expensive and tends to break when forced. DO NOT EVER FORCE IT. The 360 Spyder exhaust system is also a worthwile upgrade if you can find one cheap.
@@belgianbushrc7934 Soichiro Honda loved ferrari's engine note and racing. The whole point of DOHC VTEC was to make a cheap little car feel like an F1 car. You can see design language from Ferrari in the shape of an EK front end.
Watching your videos truly is a well needed breath of fresh air compared to many other automotive youtubers. Your calmness and energy with no excessive yelling is SO nice! Keep it up vin, your on a path to something great. Keep it real, keep it YOU. 😄
I think my favorite part about this, besides the clean editing and the obvious effort toward putting together comprehensible content, is the lack of hype monster behavior. It's Vin, he's a guy who's doing stuff, he's not pretending to be anybody, and it's super chill. Some silliness, fun with the clip inserts and music on scene switches, and an intense lack of bullshit. It's setting a really cool kind of feel for the channel, and I think it's a good beat.

As someone who spends a lot of time on car YT, I gotta say your channel is very quickly becoming one of my favorites to watch. Great music and chill vibes. Keep it up man can’t wait to watch you succeed!
I really didn't know who you were until I saw you on DDE's channel, I love the chill relaxed style of vlogging here. You definitely been added to the watch while doing Cardio list.
My buddy made good money building carbon fiber headlight bucket replacements. Because of that $3k price tag he was able to sell carbon ones with good margin, but at a fraction of that price. I think it included a new lens... But yeah, those were frequently broken from rock chip type damage... Good luck, love the car!
I bet you can fix those headlights for under 200 bucks my man.. get some wetsanding paper, 400g, 600, 1000g, 1200g.. then polish.. and hit it with a 2k (two component) clear coat.. I've done this myself a couple of times, my current car, I did this 3 years ago, still clear as glass!... I masked of the area around the lights, so still on the car, and even used a rattle can 2k clear coat.. works like a charm.. just give it 3 to 4 coats.. no problems with cleaning with heavy brushes that way.. really enjoyable content.. down to earth, relatable and aproachable to many I guess! keep it up!
With the transmission issue, definitely take it to a shop ASAP and have the fluids drained to see if you have coolant in transmission from failed heat exchanger. Very common fail point and if not caught early will need new transmission.
Honestly, I am loving the channel, Vinny. Keep it up, man. The 360 is super awesome. I would love to see you get a manual kit for the car, I think that, plus seeing you doing it as budget as possible will be such a cool series to checkout👀
Doing the mods WHILE doing maintenance is the way to go imo. because the future maintenance will be on the modded stuff. i needed to replace the clutch in my mr2 upgraded the clutch and did the rear main seal on the engine and seals on the trans too while it was out.
This is the content so many of us have been waiting for; all killer no filler 👌🏻. Love the laid back, open and honest approach. Great visuals and soundtracking. What a vibe. Keep it up man; enjoying watching from across the pond 🇬🇧
Yo I absolutely love this Vin. You and Dan were the reason I kept coming back to watch the Hoonigan stuff. Seeing you doing content on your own is such a breath of fresh air. Thanks for doing this!
I’m not a car guy per se but I have really enjoyed your content. It’s a lot different than other shows and super informative. Got me kinda thinking would be fun to buy a neat car to keep for a while and enjoy. Good stuff man. Crushed like 6 episodes already.
Also, $2500 for mounts is way overkill. IIRC, motor mounts and transmission mount will be well under $1K for all 3. Motor mounts are super easy. Trans mount is a little more of a PITA, but doable.
Had to come here to get my hoonigan fix Vin. Cant ignore the corporation of that channel now it’s sad to watch the vibes gone you can feel it just watching 😢
You shouldn’t have to blip the throttle to downshift and you don’t need to lift the throttle to upshift. The computers do that for you based off of throttle position and rpm. It going into Neutral probably is an indication of an issue with the F1 system or the clutch life is at the minimum. If you keep the F1 system, get an updated TCU and it will improve the shifting drastically
Dude! Wasn’t your biggest fan on Hoonigan. But this Vlog is sublime! So refreshing. Beats are brilliant, garage door opener is becoming a staple 👌 just needs like 5% more doggo content haha
This is shaping up to be a great channel. My suggestion for the audio is making an enclosure for the mic so it can only receive sound from one direction. Like an insulated studio booth, but tiny and open on one side. Google mic enclosure for inspo. This is not practical for every situation, but works really well where it applies.
Bro VIN, you know you’re fucking hyped to work this car back to sexy. You’re literally making this video feel like comfort food homie just because the DIY aspect beats paying someone else (mostly). I love you and your education bro, keep it coming!
@@vin_tra haha im sure! I think you did get a pretty good deal even with the work it needs. I saw another youtuber who bought a convertible F1 360 for close to 90k, granted it was red with the tan interior and he was in New Hampshire
@@TDRE88 i think its mainly the nostalgia factor, these were the supercars i grew up with as a kid. But i think the design overall is truly timeless. Pininfarina knows how to make a beautiful sports car.
One thing that plagued those 360 spyders, and coupes was the exhaust being directly next to the transmission, which ends up causing gearbox heat soak to rise and creates shifting issues. Had one come down for a brake job, went for a road test and the car was stuck in first gear the entire way, checked the gearbox temps and they were through the roof Still, one of the coolest cars of its time imo!
Seriously loving the new content. This is way more enjoyable than the newer Hoonigan stuff. When I first saw the interior I was thinking, "please just put Recaros in it. I know Ferrari seats are going to be expensive" haha.
"Do you think it is a good deal, do you think it was a mistake?" It was a decent deal for an average buyer. It was an excellent deal for you, where we get to join you on your journey of making the car better for you. And that is what we are here for.
Staples in a Ferrari headliner 😏 Love the content Vin! Keep it coming I can’t wait to see how the headlights turn out. I use Colgate and a drill with a wool disc to restore headlights.
Absolutely love the music in this video as much as the content. Definitely think this was a steal and the sound of that engine alone makes it worth it. Can’t wait to see this with a proper manual swap.
26:58 I REALLY LOVE THAT YOU NOW KNOW WHY FERRARI/LAMBO’S ARE SPECIAL😃👍🏽 You needed to here and feel it with Your OWN FERRARI🙏🏽 And now you get it Vin😃👌🏾 If it makes you feel good, its GOOD👌🏾
Another great video !! So great to see your growth. Doing a build is tough as we are almost near completion on our 458 spider. Sometimes I think doing the videos is harder than the actual build!! Well to be honest paying the bills for parts is just crazy!! Folks watching live the dream rebuild a super car !! Just secure a line of credit first👍
When I was younger a guy my cousin was friends with took me a drive in his 430 , pale blue with the cream interior , safe to say from that day I loved Ferrari , just the sound was incredible , can’t wait to see what you do with this one
@@adamthomas4638 the car was pale blue but had the cream interior , wasn’t a combo I have seen much of in exotic cars , always stuck in my mind since I was young at the time
Such a great video! But also, can we talk about that house?!? I feel like all the mid century style adds so much to this like old school Porsche driver vibe
I love this new channel. I will never own a Ferrari but it is cool to see what it's like to. The content is relatable and can translate to ownership of any type of vehicle. Vin you seem like a cool and real dude!
@vin - instead of sanding, I suggest using Maguire’s Mag Wheel polish. Tape around the headlight. Smear Maguire’s onto the lenses and use a slow speed setting on a buffer. I’ve done this on several of my cars including my 997 Targa and 3.8 GT3.
Vin, if you’re gunna continue making vlogs, I’d suggest getting a mic… you can hear the echo in the garage, and the fade of audio when you move in and out… a mic would 100% fix this issue! Keep up the great work! So happy for you having your own channel! And making a name for yourself separate from hoonigan! Anyway hope you’re doing well! Be safe and stay healthy! 💯🎉
Yeah, im working on it. I dont really love the way external mics sound and the deadcat is huge on the camera, so I need to find a solution that works for me.
Hello man, love your channel - absolutely. If I may chime in on the "snapping into neutral position": could be a lot of things: clutch is dying, being the most common. Engine lid sensor playing up (yes, I know...) - F1 gearbox actuator - F1 hydraulic circuit needs to be purged.
I owned a 03 360 F1 Modena for 4 or 5 years from 2010 , put 40t km on it including hard track days. The comments re the clutch slip position is sort of right. It is adjustable and that makes a difference. So does the way you drive it, my clutch did not need replacement during the time I had it and the subsequent owner did another 20km without a clutch, after that I lost touch with that car. But it could be the F1 pump is on the way out. That is $$$$. I had an incredible TUBI exhaust. Your rear grill is a challenge style grill, expensive if original. The reverse selector looks like the spring has gone. You must ensure that the lever is forward. If the lever triggers the sensors when you are flying forward you can destroy the drive train. The big clutch savers are do not back it up slope, and get off the line lightly. I selected neutral last few metres to a red light but do not know if that helped or not. I did not lift the throttle on up change. My additional advice check out the electrical charge system cables for fraying which is common and can do a lot of damage(ask me how I know) especially at the engine end near the alternator.Check and secure all underbody panels, put a fitting on all mounting points. Buy parts like discs in advance and have them on the shelf ready to go. Same for tires. Check fenders and keep rolling them to prevent metal cracking. Get a radar detector and laser jammer if you are allowed. Have fun!
Love the explanation on the Chassis and Struts/suspension, I think putting in a gated manual will be amazing for your Ferrari, and if you got the money, you need to do it. Enjoy your Ferrari.
Great vid! Couple things on the F1...if you install a CS TCU your shift speeds and smoothness will vastly improve. Jumping out of gear could be the clutch nearing the end of its life, or maybe a clutch position sensor, or simply air in the system. Check the obvious stuff first, like F1 fluid level and bleed the system. The actuator may also need a bleed, which isn't hard but you'll need to remove it to access there 3 bleed screws on the gearbox side. These are pretty easy cars to wrench on, people are just scared to do it. You don't strike as that type of guy lol!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 basically a dollar a mile. I cant wait to watch your channel. Im ready to see this transformation of the car. The content is perfect just keep doing what your doing. Tell the guys i said hi 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I think that color would come a long way with a different interior and different wheels. Especially when parked next to an actual silver car. Subtle and understated.
Ngl, I'm psyched to see you enjoying your new life post-Hoonigan. Congrats on the Ferrari and I'm excited to watch the build. I've spent the last couple hours catching up on your content. Great shit bro 👏🏽 👌🏽 💯
You know you doing something right when you getting more views than actual subs lol as everyone has said already you’re doing great. Truly happy for you. Much love from South Africa. ✌🏼
I honestly like the interior colour a lot. With a nice dark green, or even dark purple if you're feeling adventurous, wrap it would pair really well IMHO.
Great stuff looking forward to seeing the finished work. You'd actually be surprised how many original and CS inspired carbon fibre upgrade parts are available. I can point you in the right direction and advise you on pitfalls to avoid.

I am so stoked that you have your own channel Vin. Seriously, you're an awesome human and enjoyable to watch and listen to.
Keep it up man!
Yo I absolutely love this Vin. You and Dan were the reason I kept coming back to watch the Hoonigan stuff. Seeing you doing content on your own is such a breath of fresh air. Thanks for doing this!
I’m not a car guy per se but I have really enjoyed your content. It’s a lot different than other shows and super informative.
Got me kinda thinking would be fun to buy a neat car to keep for a while and enjoy. Good stuff man. Crushed like 6 episodes already.
Also, $2500 for mounts is way overkill. IIRC, motor mounts and transmission mount will be well under $1K for all 3. Motor mounts are super easy. Trans mount is a little more of a PITA, but doable.
Had to come here to get my hoonigan fix Vin. Cant ignore the corporation of that channel now it’s sad to watch the vibes gone you can feel it just watching 😢
I love this channel,please don't stop it Vin
You shouldn’t have to blip the throttle to downshift and you don’t need to lift the throttle to upshift. The computers do that for you based off of throttle position and rpm. It going into Neutral probably is an indication of an issue with the F1 system or the clutch life is at the minimum. If you keep the F1 system, get an updated TCU and it will improve the shifting drastically
Dude! Wasn’t your biggest fan on Hoonigan. But this Vlog is sublime! So refreshing. Beats are brilliant, garage door opener is becoming a staple 👌 just needs like 5% more doggo content haha
This is shaping up to be a great channel. My suggestion for the audio is making an enclosure for the mic so it can only receive sound from one direction. Like an insulated studio booth, but tiny and open on one side. Google mic enclosure for inspo. This is not practical for every situation, but works really well where it applies.
So cool seeing the human aspect of an OG Hoonigan. You clearly love cars and respect the funny nuances of forgotten ones. Endless respect.
Bro VIN, you know you’re fucking hyped to work this car back to sexy. You’re literally making this video feel like comfort food homie just because the DIY aspect beats paying someone else (mostly). I love you and your education bro, keep it coming!
the 360 and 430 are my 2 favorite chassis's. both just so tastefully styled.
F430 is kinda like a chunkier 360 when you think about it
I do prefer the 430 but my wallet prefers the 360!
@@vin_tra haha im sure! I think you did get a pretty good deal even with the work it needs. I saw another youtuber who bought a convertible F1 360 for close to 90k, granted it was red with the tan interior and he was in New Hampshire
Its likely your favourite because they’re so closely related on the chassis side doors hood and lots of the suspension are actually the same
@@TDRE88 i think its mainly the nostalgia factor, these were the supercars i grew up with as a kid. But i think the design overall is truly timeless. Pininfarina knows how to make a beautiful sports car.
So great to have a Ferrari in your lineup! Excited to follow the progress!
You’re quickly becoming one of my favourite youtubers, you’re killing it
One thing that plagued those 360 spyders, and coupes was the exhaust being directly next to the transmission, which ends up causing gearbox heat soak to rise and creates shifting issues. Had one come down for a brake job, went for a road test and the car was stuck in first gear the entire way, checked the gearbox temps and they were through the roof
Still, one of the coolest cars of its time imo!
Seriously loving the new content. This is way more enjoyable than the newer Hoonigan stuff. When I first saw the interior I was thinking, "please just put Recaros in it. I know Ferrari seats are going to be expensive" haha.
Really appreciate the effort with the varied shots / overheads / whiteboards Vin, keep up the great work
When a car makes the right sounds it makes the experience so gooood!
This channel feels really refreshing. Absolutely loving it! I hope you’re enjoying it as much as we are Vin!
"Do you think it is a good deal, do you think it was a mistake?"
It was a decent deal for an average buyer. It was an excellent deal for you, where we get to join you on your journey of making the car better for you. And that is what we are here for.
Staples in a Ferrari headliner 😏
Love the content Vin! Keep it coming I can’t wait to see how the headlights turn out. I use Colgate and a drill with a wool disc to restore headlights.
Absolutely love the music in this video as much as the content. Definitely think this was a steal and the sound of that engine alone makes it worth it. Can’t wait to see this with a proper manual swap.
You're teaching car people to be gearheads and that's awesome man. loving your new lane of content. part car culture, part education.
Hell yeah, good to see this. Love seeing people showing projects in depth they are genuinely interested in, thanks man and we're here for it
26:58 I REALLY LOVE THAT YOU NOW KNOW WHY FERRARI/LAMBO’S ARE SPECIAL😃👍🏽
You needed to here and feel it with Your OWN FERRARI🙏🏽
And now you get it Vin😃👌🏾 If it makes you feel good, its GOOD👌🏾
Another great video !! So great to see your growth. Doing a build is tough as we are almost near completion on our 458 spider. Sometimes I think doing the videos is harder than the actual build!! Well to be honest paying the bills for parts is just crazy!! Folks watching live the dream rebuild a super car !! Just secure a line of credit first👍
Congrats Vin. That's a sweet driveway/garage collection, and knowing you have more in the warehouse is pretty nuts.
I truly can’t believe it
When I was younger a guy my cousin was friends with took me a drive in his 430 , pale blue with the cream interior , safe to say from that day I loved Ferrari , just the sound was incredible , can’t wait to see what you do with this one
That pale blue interior is so dope an I don't even like Ferrari that much you see that interior on navy blue ones
@@adamthomas4638 the car was pale blue but had the cream interior , wasn’t a combo I have seen much of in exotic cars , always stuck in my mind since I was young at the time
$55K is a lot of car! Huge deal. Looking forward to the build series!!!!
Vin is my new favorite RUclipsr 🤷🏻
Sam @ seen through glass crying genuine tears right now hearing you talk about how good your manual swapped 360 is going to be…
I think that Vin has one of the best lineups. Has a little bit of everything, Italian, german, Japanese, and American. Its just cool to see
Such a great video! But also, can we talk about that house?!? I feel like all the mid century style adds so much to this like old school Porsche driver vibe
Can’t wait for this build. I like the 360. Going to be a great one!
The F1 gearbox seems to drive a lot like the E46 M3 SMG transmission. I had one and it was a bit clunky and weird until you get used to it.
loving the vlog content vin, super nice to come home and relax to a vin vlog
This fool is already at 100k subs, Good job Vin keep em comin
Glad 1 vin has a channel 2 I'm here from the start💯
I love this new channel. I will never own a Ferrari but it is cool to see what it's like to. The content is relatable and can translate to ownership of any type of vehicle. Vin you seem like a cool and real dude!
Welcome aboard!
@vin - instead of sanding, I suggest using Maguire’s Mag Wheel polish.
Tape around the headlight.
Smear Maguire’s onto the lenses and use a slow speed setting on a buffer.
I’ve done this on several of my cars including my 997 Targa and 3.8 GT3.
WOW , RUclips algorithm starts to work excellent - I'm very pleased to watch Yours content - thanks 🙏
Ahh the way you describe your driving experience! Make me feel like Im sitting in the passanger seat.
Vin, if you’re gunna continue making vlogs, I’d suggest getting a mic… you can hear the echo in the garage, and the fade of audio when you move in and out… a mic would 100% fix this issue! Keep up the great work! So happy for you having your own channel! And making a name for yourself separate from hoonigan! Anyway hope you’re doing well! Be safe and stay healthy! 💯🎉
Yeah, im working on it. I dont really love the way external mics sound and the deadcat is huge on the camera, so I need to find a solution that works for me.
The garage is sick. I'm crushin on the back sliding wall.
Bro, this is so Casey Neistat back in the good old days, when he was fun, but with cars. I fckin´ love it - Cheers from Mexico city
I bought a miata two days ago and am going through the same thing This is the video and advise I needed.
Vinnie is the true car-dude RUclips content of 2024 that we need, but don't deserve.
good stuff vin, easy and relaxed content ! I'm here for it
The laugh from your GF about the 'shifter'! I LOL'd as well! Soo good man, love this model of Rari, congrats and can't wait to see what it becomes!
No matter how sorted a used car claims to be, they almost always needs work. You did good. Now tou can make it your own with less guilt
Hello man, love your channel - absolutely. If I may chime in on the "snapping into neutral position": could be a lot of things: clutch is dying, being the most common. Engine lid sensor playing up (yes, I know...) - F1 gearbox actuator - F1 hydraulic circuit needs to be purged.
It just needed to relearn gears which I did with the challenge tcu. But it is manual now so it doesn’t matter hehehe
I owned a 03 360 F1 Modena for 4 or 5 years from 2010 , put 40t km on it including hard track days. The comments re the clutch slip position is sort of right. It is adjustable and that makes a difference. So does the way you drive it, my clutch did not need replacement during the time I had it and the subsequent owner did another 20km without a clutch, after that I lost touch with that car. But it could be the F1 pump is on the way out. That is $$$$.
I had an incredible TUBI exhaust. Your rear grill is a challenge style grill, expensive if original. The reverse selector looks like the spring has gone. You must ensure that the lever is forward. If the lever triggers the sensors when you are flying forward you can destroy the drive train.
The big clutch savers are do not back it up slope, and get off the line lightly. I selected neutral last few metres to a red light but do not know if that helped or not. I did not lift the throttle on up change. My additional advice check out the electrical charge system cables for fraying which is common and can do a lot of damage(ask me how I know) especially at the engine end near the alternator.Check and secure all underbody panels, put a fitting on all mounting points.
Buy parts like discs in advance and have them on the shelf ready to go. Same for tires. Check fenders and keep rolling them to prevent metal cracking. Get a radar detector and laser jammer if you are allowed. Have fun!
Dude, that's the perfect garage you have, thanks for sharing it all.
Dude, watching you learn the GB & Shifting, I'm smiling along!! '8500 RPM'!! YEAH Boiiiiii 🤣🤘
Love the explanation on the Chassis and Struts/suspension, I think putting in a gated manual will be amazing for your Ferrari, and if you got the money, you need to do it. Enjoy your Ferrari.
Great vid! Couple things on the F1...if you install a CS TCU your shift speeds and smoothness will vastly improve. Jumping out of gear could be the clutch nearing the end of its life, or maybe a clutch position sensor, or simply air in the system. Check the obvious stuff first, like F1 fluid level and bleed the system. The actuator may also need a bleed, which isn't hard but you'll need to remove it to access there 3 bleed screws on the gearbox side. These are pretty easy cars to wrench on, people are just scared to do it. You don't strike as that type of guy lol!
Keep up the great work on all the new content! Glad to see a regular person showing the real life of owning cars and going through the process!
I love the old school Daily Transmission vibes with editing and content delivery. Great content 👏🏽👏🏽
Vin is reviving the daily vlog style content, not having something big going on during the video and just everyday things you need to do is sick.🤙🏻
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 basically a dollar a mile. I cant wait to watch your channel. Im ready to see this transformation of the car. The content is perfect just keep doing what your doing. Tell the guys i said hi 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I’m digging your video format with the musical cuts. Keep it up Vin dope shitaki
Bravo Vin, Hoonigan-like editing and style but still no fluff and to the point. Also youre Vin-style.I like how you share what to look for in buying a car and are real with it. Please continue this effort of no fluff and being real 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽mahalo!!🎉
Congrats on 100k! That number is just gonna keep going up
I think that color would come a long way with a different interior and different wheels. Especially when parked next to an actual silver car. Subtle and understated.
Ngl, I'm psyched to see you enjoying your new life post-Hoonigan. Congrats on the Ferrari and I'm excited to watch the build. I've spent the last couple hours catching up on your content. Great shit bro 👏🏽 👌🏽 💯
Thank you!
@vin_tra of course my guy. Love to see it
I really enjoy the format and casual/informative vibe. Good angkes good transitions. Super super enjoy it
You know you doing something right when you getting more views than actual subs lol as everyone has said already you’re doing great. Truly happy for you. Much love from South Africa. ✌🏼
I don’t know about yall… but this wat I like to see… pure happiness 🎉 keep it up man,,,, keep this energy… don’t change up on us and sell out
I honestly like the interior colour a lot. With a nice dark green, or even dark purple if you're feeling adventurous, wrap it would pair really well IMHO.
Great stuff looking forward to seeing the finished work. You'd actually be surprised how many original and CS inspired carbon fibre upgrade parts are available. I can point you in the right direction and advise you on pitfalls to avoid.
Sure. But most are a billion dollars so I can't f with them
Such a chilled video, so cool, a proper car guy! You're going to be one of the greats!
