Imagine posting someone’s worst moment and having the nerve to monetise it. As someone in the car community you should know better. Shame of you to do that.
I could watch Vin & Andrew driving, talking and loving this car all day long. Two people completely in touch with the driving experience. And the engine sounds amazing!!! Great, great video.
Nothing more satisfying than owning a car you’ve put a lot of thought and love into, and then sitting shotgun while someone who loves cars gets their mind blown driving it. ❤ all the love.
For a worth it series, do the Celica 5th Gen, all cars can be found in the US, alltrac especially. But the Gt-4 RC also can exist, the premium awd Japanese model everyone tries to make their normal Celica look like. Could do a stock vs modded in each trim. Lots of 5th Gen guys in the united states.
I respect the thought process of removing the OG engine and dropping the HKS crate in. That said, doing this kind of stuff in a car that could sell for $1.2m+… sheesh. I need to find out what he does to have those kinds of funds.
Vin, I absolutely love the format of your channel. Filmed and put together soo well. Incredibly entertaining to watch. Wish you did more videos per week
The original saying makes much more sense. It’s “you can’t eat your cake and have it too” meaning if you eat it. You can’t also have it side it’s already been eaten. Also, totally random side note, the fact the original motto is so uncommon, when the Unibomber said in his manifesto, it clued his brother in to tip off the FBI and it’s what lead to his arrest.
Vin this is the coolest shit ever!!! Absolutely love this style of content!! Its like donut style videos but with a presenter that actually want to watch and listen to! Well done bro!!
HKS GTIII RS turbos sound insane, they switched from Ball Bearing to Mitsubishi manufactured Journal Bearing, and the surge sound when you go off throttle is amazing and super distinct. Best without a blow off valve. I had one on a SR20det, which is almost the same turbo that's on this setup, crazy response and potent power. Not all about big singles guys!!
ACH is one of the sneakiest most dangerous roads to drive. I climb up to Mount Wilson (Road bike) a ton and grew up in Altadena. I've seen so many cars totaled on ACH. I used to take my built F80M up there and the road is deceptive.. It begs you to push and commit, and if you lift you're spinning out or hitting the wall, or worse going off the cliff... I've had to wait for CHP to pull people out and seen one too many fatalities.. On my road bike I can hit 40+ mph on the descent from Mount Wilson to Clear creek station. It's deceptively steep and if you're not a skilled enough driver to understand pushing your car while going down a grade, you'll be in trouble..
@@creativeclectic And that's why no matter how skilled you are, you never push beyond 7/10th in the canyons. Keep it on the track. But inexperienced drivers (especially today given how fast modern cars are) think they are Aryton Senna and go the Crest, GMR, or Azusa Canyon road and turn off traction control and drive 10/10ths for some odd reason. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Full credit to Andrew for showing this rare species to the world and sharing it with others. I too prefer the twin turbo set up to a large single as they have better street manners and listen to them spool 😍!!!
Definitely love the 400! So sick! The sound, the color…epic! Vin, thanks for showing it to us! Keep it up! Love the “is it worth it” ideas you’re working on! Supra?
Man, Vinny you are killin it. Another great video, the fucking 400R is THE grail car of the JDM world as far as im concerned. AND YOU GOT TO DRIVE IT!!!!
Vin the 90’s car historian. Sweet car..6 zeros on that beast. Carrera GTS is where I’d be but great episode. Really impressed with your vast friendships and their skill. I just want an Audi S8 v10.
I love the look of skylines so much. And I'm not even a fan of fast and furious and I don't care about the fact that they are rare. I just think they have a very timeless look. Especially the R32 has done it to me.
The ending almost usurps the whole video. Proves my theory; money and a fast car, a good driver do not make. I digress, what a beaut of an R33, stoked to see one out there being used. Thanks Vin.
I remember seeing the 400r in gran turismo one or two, and it was my dream car. I told myself that by the time I was 30, I could import one. Lmao had no idea they became this valuable! Not surprised though, so sick to see an og dream car from the 90s up close and personal like this
Vin can we please have a walk around of your beautiful home please, I’ve seen the interview with your Cliff May home but I hope I can speak for a lot of us but we would love to see your style of video as a house tour 🙏 been loving every video you’ve uploaded, keep it up!
Hey Vin, idea for an "is it worth it" episode. New edge mustang. 99-04. Lots of models in that time frame, but i think GT, Mach 1, and 03/04 Cobra would be the best mix.
your recent story about driving through Angeles Crest... that was from the heart and DRIVING WITHIN LIMITS is something that should be preached. Hope that you still make it out there and I would hate to see that ruined for you.
Of course it doesn’t worth it. They think it’s worth 2 million but no one is going to pay for it. Imagine this car worth more than Nissan R390? 😂 the power of hype and fanboy.
Huge respect to the owner for driving it rather than sticking it in a climate controlled garage and selling it at auction in 10-20 years
100 tercent
“It’s def totaled but no airbags is nice” another case of Tommy’s brutal honesty.
I was there that day this is nuts
11:40, I love the casual crashed M2 in the background like that's just everyday next to a 2 million buck car lmfao
You beat me to it 🤣🤣
I just saw that now as I read your comment Hilarious
LMAO I was like "what about the CRASHED M2???" LOL
Then I saw the end of the video and how Vin got that crash on camera...damn. Poor guy
Imagine totaling your M2 and Tommy F Yeah just comes outta nowhere and goes “no airbags is nice” 😂
Hahahahha he owns a body shop so he’s thinking how much to fix it
I had this exact thought. Lmao. Now a couple million people get to see it too.
I like how the M2 driver agrees with him but doesn’t know why I am sure. 😂
The awesome sounding induction noise over powers the exhaust in the video.
Bros driving an M2 in flip flops
Imagine posting someone’s worst moment and having the nerve to monetise it. As someone in the car community you should know better. Shame of you to do that.
Vin continuing to be the most WORTH IT automotive RUclipsr
I.C.E. is a dead term but that totally fit lol. OMG we're all old LOL.
😭😭
"Man, the comments probably are going to be talking about airlift existing"
M2 Driver: I'm turning off traction and stability control ok
HOT IMPORT NIGHTS … ICE !! Wow !! I haven’t heard those words in over a decade !!
ALAWYS A BMW DRIVER randomly crashing...
We’d be saying the same thing if it was a mustang
I can’t believe this one is in the states, let alone driving on the road! Thanks for doing what you do Vin!
Colorado plates...gonna have to keep an eye open for this one!
I could watch Vin & Andrew driving, talking and loving this car all day long. Two people completely in touch with the driving experience. And the engine sounds amazing!!! Great, great video.
Nothing more satisfying than owning a car you’ve put a lot of thought and love into, and then sitting shotgun while someone who loves cars gets their mind blown driving it. ❤ all the love.
The crashed bmw at 11:29 is crazy🤯
Was wondering what happened to it, *spoiler it's at **16:44*
I literally pulled up after them minutes later
The chain mic is such a casual flex, I love it lol
If I saw that car in the street I would guess it's a replica and no one would insane enough to drive a real 400r in the streets.
For a worth it series, do the Celica 5th Gen, all cars can be found in the US, alltrac especially. But the Gt-4 RC also can exist, the premium awd Japanese model everyone tries to make their normal Celica look like. Could do a stock vs modded in each trim. Lots of 5th Gen guys in the united states.

It's just a number,. peasant
Vin, I absolutely love the format of your channel. Filmed and put together soo well. Incredibly entertaining to watch. Wish you did more videos per week
There was a R400 in Calgary AB Canada at one point a few years ago, he'd turn up at a Cars and Coffee people just be like "oh, look another GTR"
Calgary gang!
He sold that car to a guy in the states I believe.
Best car channel atm!! Keep it up brother
Damn, I'd be smiling nonstop driving that thing. The sounds that come from that 400R are amazing!
Ahh that turbo OMG, so good!
Fitment on your GT3 is on point bro, I could look at that profile for days!! Love the channel Vin, peace

LMAO the dude who crashed his hideos BMW at 12:00
YEEEEEAWWWW Vin always bringing us the 🔥🔥🔥 Content cant explain how happy it makes me see you doing what you love to do🎉🎉🎉❤❤🇨🇦🇨🇦
This is the first video ive seen of you and it was pretty thorough. I appreciate that. Thanks.
Love how the owner smiles when it spools. Love ya work vin
This dude is actually really smart for swapping the motor
Vin this is the coolest shit ever!!! Absolutely love this style of content!! Its like donut style videos but with a presenter that actually want to watch and listen to! Well done bro!!
Your true love of the cars you feature comes out every time. You inspire me to learn more about sports cars.
I haven’t heard Hot Import Nights in a while
Geeze did not expect the see Hawkins in this video!
Wasn't pre planned. Saw Tommy at the Nissan meet in Little Tokyo and he invited me along. Was a great day. Also got to drive the 400r
Great surprise though. Love seeing some of my favourite presenters get together for fat chats.

Damn dude really totaled the M2 at the end 🤦🏿♂️

Love the “is it worth it” ideas you’re working on! Supra?
@ Vin thanks for videos enjoying them
Looks like the owner is happy af just kitting you drive the car. That is beyond cool man. We all happy you got to experience that. Bravo to both
That bov made me smile every time
Nice review series.. Definitely loving it..Keep it up!..👍🏽🏁
Man, Vinny you are killin it. Another great video, the fucking 400R is THE grail car of the JDM world as far as im concerned.
AND YOU GOT TO DRIVE IT!!!!
Huge respect to Andrew and Tommy F Yeah. This build is beautiful
Respect for Andrew none for Tommy
hands down my favorite car in gran Turismo 2! seeing one in person must be surreal!!
Thank you for making great informative and entertaining content. 👏
Vin the 90’s car historian. Sweet car..6 zeros on that beast. Carrera GTS is where I’d be but great episode. Really impressed with your vast friendships and their skill. I just want an Audi S8 v10.
Love your content one of my favourite u tube sub 👍
Tommi Makinen evo 6.5 would be something super cool to see Vin do.
A guy local to me in NC has one of these in white. Such an incredible car to see in person.
Great video Vin! Truly a unicorn and you were so fortunate to drive it. Awesome life man.
the M2 in the background lmaoooooo😭 cooked
Yo! I remember ICE!! Love what Andrew did to that 400R and he drives it! Good episode Vin🤙🏽
Great Video Vin..✌️
Still one of my all time favorite rides. Totally love this one, 😊
Because of people like you ... create the I want an the market goes mental
Andrew(s) is a legend. Dude knew what he wanted, made it and drives it. Awesome.
Vin driving a super rare spec Skyline and I'm over here just wishing to buy a base model.
I mean same.
this is the content Vin! Canyon content is the ONE
I love the look of skylines so much. And I'm not even a fan of fast and furious and I don't care about the fact that they are rare. I just think they have a very timeless look. Especially the R32 has done it to me.
Andrew is a real humble g.
I have a problem… I see a blurred image and went “oh a 400R. Nice!” Lmfao
The ending almost usurps the whole video. Proves my theory; money and a fast car, a good driver do not make.
I digress, what a beaut of an R33, stoked to see one out there being used. Thanks Vin.
Keep going Vin!
Crazy to witness an accident like that
Blown away. Such a good spec car too
Amazing car. Cool to see it being driven.
The unicorn of all GTRs... Woooooow... the turbos sound so good
just another joyous Thursday morning! Its like saturday mornings cartoons
Love the crashed m2 in the background
"Definitely totaled but no air bags is nice" lol that sucks though
This gentleman is a legend I'm glad he's out here driving that car like it's supposed to be drivin
I remember seeing the 400r in gran turismo one or two, and it was my dream car. I told myself that by the time I was 30, I could import one. Lmao had no idea they became this valuable! Not surprised though, so sick to see an og dream car from the 90s up close and personal like this
Not to be a hater, because I love the 360; however, the door closing @ 0:34 totally reminds me of an '87 IROC door closing.
Always look forward to Thursdays now. Maybe a worth it with the A5,S5, RS5 or B7 A4, S4, and RS4
Yeah that could be a good one
I love how Andrew drives this car. I hate seeing beautiful cars, just sitting in a stupid museum. Respect
Vin can we please have a walk around of your beautiful home please, I’ve seen the interview with your Cliff May home but I hope I can speak for a lot of us but we would love to see your style of video as a house tour 🙏 been loving every video you’ve uploaded, keep it up!
Siick. Thanks for sharing, Vin.
Hey Vin, idea for an "is it worth it" episode. New edge mustang. 99-04. Lots of models in that time frame, but i think GT, Mach 1, and 03/04 Cobra would be the best mix.
Best channel on yt
In 2002 my Father took 1 of those in PX against a car. It took him ages to sell, can't remember the value of it then.
Beautiful 400r and Beautiful porsche gt3rs ♥️
your recent story about driving through Angeles Crest... that was from the heart and DRIVING WITHIN LIMITS is something that should be preached. Hope that you still make it out there and I would hate to see that ruined for you.
Andrew is my kind of car guy. Make the car yours and use it. 👍🏾
What a classy build.
Thats one of the most unique sounding cars I've heard.
7:05 rich guy shit!
“Worth it” with Golf GTI’s please Vin.
Dude this car is so amazing and to drive it as much as the owner does is awesome! Just ignore the M2 crashed at 11:24…💀
Props to him for pulling that motor and saving it, the build is amazing...but the bags, lol...ballsy.
"Is that Vin & Tommy F *CRASH* NOOO!!!"
you can't have Cate and Eidth too - that's the original saying (well somewhere along those lines) we've been fvcking it up for years 🤣
I read the title of this and said oh we here go again, but the 400R is totally worth it. I actually like what the owner has done.
That was a beautiful car, idk about 2 mill....but sheesh 🔥🔥 another killer video too man!
2 mil is laughable for that car but as long as it makes him happy I guess
Tis no car, this is a peice of ART. THE MONA LISA.
Did I just see someone crash a M2 on ACH, and get out in Flip Flops? BRUH!!!!!
did you have a mic under the hood?? if not, those are crazy loud blow off noises lol. love it!
Nopeeee! That was just on us
@@vin_tra that's absolutely wild!!!
Andy seems like a really nice chap, i wonder what other cool stuff he has
How is the value 2mil if it has been modified so much? The valuation is usually based on it's rarity and especially original condition.
Shoutout mission raceway 🤙🏽
Great vid! Why not just buy another GT-R and just maintain the 400r?
a true anthusiast well done VIC
Of course it doesn’t worth it. They think it’s worth 2 million but no one is going to pay for it. Imagine this car worth more than Nissan R390? 😂 the power of hype and fanboy.
