YEAH, that's the one I would pick. Oh and you drive around with a constant erection from all the power and luxury.

      Plus, he factors in a different revenue stream. He “lost” some money on the car, but he is able to depreciate the vehicle itself, expense repairs to some degree, but he made all of that up plus more via advertising and CZcams revenue. I’m certain it is a net sum gain for him.

      I think the issue is that these cars have appreciated a lot in value and are now like 500K. Plus I feel like hoovies channel is more about keeping it a little "realistically achievable" for it's viewers so I don't think this would be a fit in that way. The SLS isn't my favorite car either, but I get why it would fit his channel.

      @@stephans1990 no they go for 220k at dealerships, I could imagine the cheapest in America could be like 180k which is in the same ballpark as the other 2. But alot more SLT and gt40s were made than McLaren's in fact with only 1000 SLR McLaren's produced period between 2 years, Bugatti has produced roughly 2.5x as many veyrons and even more chirons, this is a very rare car and will most likely appreciate given it used to be the fastest and is a Mercedes McLaren shared nameplate.

      McLaren SLR. I followed a factory fresh one from Woking, where they were made, to Guildford. A gorgeous car and will most likely appreciate in value. I recall Clarkson stating, "At full chat it can empty its fuel tank in 20 minutes."

      Is it a Z3 or a Z4, I still haven't figured that out. Don't know my BMW roadsters that well. All i can say with certainty, it's neither a Z1 nor a Z8, because those would've been something special.

    It always freaks me out when Hoovie does recaps because it reminds me how much he's done with his life since I started watching his channel and how litter I've done with mine.
    Hoovie: bought a new house, got married, had a kid, may have bought a new car or two.
    Me: is still in college. Still.
    Also someone please explain to me why I was more interested in the red trailblazer EXT driving past in the back ground then the camaro he was driving lol

    I am a Ford lover, and even I say to go with either of the Mercs. Haven't seen an SLR on a channel and those cars were awesome when they came out. The SLS was one of my favorite cars when it came out and I kind of forgot about it. So I would say either one would be a great choice.

    @jakebarnes9018 Před 3 lety

    I’d go with the SLR, from what I recall they’re actually pretty reliable cars, the V8 and transmission package is similar to the unit in a ton of period AMG cars, and there really isn’t that much trickery going on otherwise. The only thing to watch out for is part prices on the carbon fiber pieces, iirc the hood alone was a $75,000 part from MB.

    I always find it amazing when people let cars sit for extended periods of time. My grandfather bought a new Cadillac in 1960, Coupe DeVille. The generator went out on it the first year he had it. The story goes, the nearest dealer was a 3 hour drive away, my grandfather got in an argument with the dealership about getting it fixed at a local repair shop. That didn't work out so he just parked it in the garage and got another car. It sat there under a cover, inside a garage until the 90s. I really wanted it but didn't have a good place to keep it until I was out of college. Grandma ended up selling it right before I was ready. She got totally conned too. If memory serves, she sold it for $700.

    I just did a bit of research and discovered real story behind SLS which is really interesting. In early 00' Chrysler developed a completely new Dodge Viper. However, Mercedes-Benz was fed up with Chrysler loosing cash, so they took it from them to create the SLS AMG and told them to do a deep restyling of an old model instead (for 2003). It's true you can look it up. I find it fascinating that SLS is really a... Dodge. I always thought that similarity when it comes to proportions is just a coincidence, yet it isn't. You should get it.
