That's pretty cool that you got to participate in that!

The money aspect of cars is so weird, I learned some kind of lesson about that many years ago when I bought a charity auction car for $900 and then restored it for several thousand (not even counting my time) and there was never any good answer to how much I paid for it. If I said the auction price people either got upset that I was "lying" because obviously nobody gets a car like that for that price or they got hung up on the magical deal I got.. if I explained that I first paid for a sh*tty non-running beater and then spent hundreds of hours bringing it back nobody wants to hear a whole story. If I said I have "about 5 or 6 thousand in it plus my time" they were annoyed that I wasn't able to put a precise number on it.

Lately I just say "I dunno man, a lot at this point" when people ask.. which is still sh*tty since it sounds like I have regrets or something.

So the premise of a 95 GT for under $5000 is sort of like that.. yeah you can buy a tired and "well used" GT for 5k in 2025 but to make it perform as tested you're in a different league entirely. I think that for people whose hands haven't held a wrench their minds don't have the requisite framework to understand what goes into refreshing and refining a cheap car into a desirable one, and once it's desirable it's no longer cheap.

I guess what I'm saying is I wish platforms like Donut would be a little more on-the-nose about that. Jimmy says "Five thousand dollars? I'm in!" which doesn't do justice to what you've actually spent to achieve that specific car he's in.

That's funny. I watched it and instantly came on here and then saw your post. I wish they would have done a little more action shots/sound as you car sounds amazing. Cool to see an actually prepped car on their and not their hodgepodge "internet wisdom" cars.

I was today-years-old when I learned that Hoonigan was a show. All these years I thought it was just a meme-esque sticker.
