isuzu is just excited to be at the meeting... dead. 😂💀
It was literally the best
Seriously guys this is like the best day of my life!
@@giovannybaez2648 who are you again?
@@purpleking6678 I'm you
@@giovannybaez2648 you funny, you should be a comedian
Donut gets it. They knew this year is already a bad April Fools joke, they gave us something we've been dreaming about instead. Thank you guys.
Buy "UMA"!! A cryptocurrency, Ethereum token that will hit $100 in the next couple months!!🚀🚀 lets push this price up!!! The future for sure
I was really really hoping this wouldn’t be an April fools joke
And it involves a special bunny... on the verge of Easter. Geniuses.
Yea
@@pier-lucgaranddion1527 the key of rocket bunny body kits products does still exist. To this day.
The "Gentleman's agreement" skit had me in fkn stitches, hilarious. I had no clue that car manufacturers had such a thing. Being a bike guy myself it instantly reminded me of the "agreement" of the big 4 of motorcycle industry after Hayabusa dropped.
Forrealss 😂😂😂
LOL SETTLE SETTLLE
Yoooo Ryan Hailey on the EDIT! Great job as always, I'm loving all this Donut content.
i was so shocked when i saw him and then to hear his voice..... I was blown away!!!!
As an Isuzu owner I just want to say I'm happy to be included
Subaru owners: am I a joke to you
@@alliwanttosayis2144 Daihatsu : Us too
Hahaha we are Finnaly included 😂
@@kaitospence18 daihatsu is toyota
Mitsubishi deserves the position.
Isuzu: “I think... it’s really nice... that you guys invited me.”
I NEARLY PISSED MYSELF 🤣🤣
No you didnt
And all isuzu does is make bikes n trucks
Thanks for inviting him he was sooooooooooooooooooo happy to be there.
"It's like...the best day of my life" lost it 😂😂😂
This guy is like that Isuzu rep in the video
9:48- 11:48 had me in tears. Isuzu's first line was the catalyst. I'm now in pain. I needed that. Thank you Donut!
What an awesome video/documentary. Love the history lesson on why 90’s Japanese cars are so amazing and lend them selves to being tuned so wonderfully. Just an excellent video Donut crew!
James Pumphrey: This is everything you need to know to get Up To Speed...
Me: You're as beautiful as the day I lost you.
He is so cool!
...stuff my dad would say if he came back.
Is that the annoying af fatass commentator?
im crying at the gentleman’s agreement animation 😂😂😂 They deserve a show of themselves
Mo powuh baybuh
I don’t care I’m taking this as canon for what really happened in that meeting!
Once izuzu came on i was 💀😂
I feel like Mazda was spot-on
That carports ad was amazing 👏
When you know Ryan Hailey you can see how much of him is in the edit of this video, not just his style of editing, it includes putting his own face and voice in this video all over the place.
I heard his voice dubbing the Japanese and I immediately said “wtf is that Ryan?!” It is a very distinct Ryan Hailey edit 😂
This is a FunHaus video and I won't be convinced otherwise.
Wait. If Ryan is in the Donut Media Cinematic Universe (DMCU)... And Donut still exists... Then FunHaus is still alive!
That Japanese Auto Meeting bit should win an award.
Mo powah babeh!
Isuzu had me wheezing.
MOPOWAHBABEH! >=[

@@TopCarsTV SETTLE!! settle... settolllllllllllll
My jaw dropped when you were able to get the man himself on a video call.
Crazy he's been using CAD longer than I've been alive!
@Bob Ross im pretty sure this is an april fools joke
@@danielthehuman4662 Who invented CAD?
Pierre Bézier
The invention of the 3D CAD/CAM is attributed to French engineer Pierre Bézier (Arts et Métiers ParisTech, Renault). Between 1966 and 1968, after his mathematical work concerning surfaces, he developed UNISURF to ease the design of parts and tools for the automotive industry.
@Bob Ross GPUs exist since the 90s bro. My father was working on CAD since i was born. The first thing i learned on a computer was CAD and Paint., on a windows 98 custom PC. CAD only draws lines in 3D space, if you dont need to render ur designs and you just need them for blueprints, you dont need a GPU anyway.
@Bob Ross My dad used CAD in 1995 when it was still called AutoCAD on a 100 Mhz Pentium with 4 MB of RAM, seeing him work in what seemed to be a professional version of MS Paint was fascinating for me as a kid. I should have paid attention to what he was doing at the time, I would have been rich by now.
@Bob Ross see u say that but the industeral exhaust pipe benders at my work run the software program on windows 98 infact everything there runs on windows 98 xD if we lose power we lose every single line of coded text for the programs accross the entire factory but hey it still works tho right xD
Dude, this episode rocked, you rock, the donut team rocks !!! Thanks for all 😘
I watched every second of this episode and enjoyed it thoroughly, this is the first time I've heard of him or Rocket Bunny, but I'm sure I've seen one or two of his creations and they are ABSOLUTELY AHHHH-MAZING
Thanks for this awesome expose' of him, it was very VERY RAD !!!!!
So happy to be wrong that Donut was teasing new Up To Speed episodes to prank us on April Fools Day
Me too 🙃
that would be way too mean of an April Fools joke
@@Donut JAAAAAMMEEESSSSS thank you SO MUCH for bringing UTS back!!!!
@@Donut up to speed on the Oldsmobile cutlass????
when he said: "this is everything you need to know to get up to speed on..."
i felt the void in my heart just get filled with happiness
Same. I was ready to run through a wall
@@MrKB087 😂😂😂😂
I cannot begin to explain the smile on my face when I heard the up to speed theme
Void filled!
That might be the best demonstration of the Japanese car manufacturers' gentleman's agreement I've seen in video form. Cheers man!
They need bring back Up to Speed, Car customization videos, mazda upgrades videos and some other old formats that actually what makes donut channel special
The gentleman’s agreement animation was awesome
moh powah babeh!!
Woah, woah, there, settle down. 😆
I lost my shit with Isuzu
Yes! Haha
I’m just glad to be here
Can't stop staring at that see-through Parrot on Jame's shirt.
I hate you for that 😂

Great job, excellent delivery, editing was too notch and the length was good! Welcome back
I've been watching the channel for a little while and this longer format video made me subscribe . So yes, please keep them coming !
I love how Isuzu was just there eating ice cream and happy he was included in the meeting😂😂 also it’s awesome we finally got some new up to speeds
When the world needed it the most, *IT RETURNED AND IT SAVED US!!*

This has been sitting at the top of my suggested video feed for the longest time. And I can honestly say YT did me a solid. The episode was absolutely brilliant.
Ha! This whole time I was like "That really sounds like Ryan Hailey reading the translations..." So awesome that you got him to edit this ♥
The most iconic sentence of the century:
*"THIS IS EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TO GET UP TO SPEED ON (insert subject)"*
Toyota SUVs. Hilux
Isuzu D-Max, Kia cars, Rav4, Escape, and more.
Pandem
Subaru! *WRX*
Pontiac Firebird / Trans Am.
I was almost to start a funeral to Up to Speed, it's been a long time since we had a new episode.
next on up to speed:up to speed on..........THE C8 CORVETTE
I was walking in a funeral when I got this notification and did a 180
Starting to feel the same way about Salty Cracker.
I love the up to speed series. Very well done guys
I'm loving all the editing on this. Especially the board meeting was outstanding
CAN we pls Appreciate that Up to Speed is finally back😭
it's not
James father is very proud of him because he’s finally done a up to speed
I like your pfp
@@mopar_randy4952 You both are a man of culture
I find comfort that I'm not the only one who knows who that is
@@dravenator0545 Another man of culture
I thought this was the last time I would see something like your pfp
Wow. This was a great Episode. Seriously, thank you guys.
This guys designs and ideas inspire me so much he truly is the GOAT of the car scene
My eyes have been blessed with James' presance
Ya
Donut your guys' quality of editing and film is higher then cable. Y'all absolutely KILLING IT.
And DAMNNNNN that c8 kit looks SICK.
By boy Ryan does great work!
@@Creddz69 was gonna say the same thing, it's got that Ryan flair 😂
They do a great job and it's not like it's a few guys sitting around in the garage who decided to make videos. They went to arts school for this s***.

I hear you Ryan Hailey. Banger editing from you and whoever else worked on the vid too
Isuzu literally touched my heart.
reminded me of Louis CK
MOW POWA BABEH!!!
Well, it was his best day of life.
This was hands down one of the best episodes
You just missed James, I did too
No it’s not

Love you guys did this. I actually got the 7th s13 kit imported to the states it's labeled 007 inside the bumpers and flares. And I've still got it. Great piece of history!
This was so good. So well written and edited too. Nice work!
That japanese automaker meeting is top-notch content, god damn
Ikr🤣
Its exactly how it happened in real life.
Mazda is soo angry lol
Tell me why I could envision mazdas face lol
If Scotty Kilmer had cameo’d as Toyota, I would’ve died 💀
The Japanese automakers meeting was one of the funniest things I have ever seen
MOH POWAH
Facts, i was dyingggg
Isuzu is happy
Isuzu tho... xD
Honda: No more cars over 276hp
Mazda: TF you talking about
Isuzu: I just wanna say
Me: I can’t breathe 😂🤣😜
I really like these videos! Thanks for making such entertaining content.
I love up to speed 100x more than any other car video on you tube ........... nothing else is more cooler,funnier,and had mo powa baby than up to speed. Please never stop doing this program james humpry. We love you in south louisiana
I’m so stoked, when James says “up to
SPEEEED” it’s the same feeling of captain America saying “avengers assemble” in end game
Yes I can honestly agree
To quote the great Bart...
“It was called a gentleman’s agreement, and it was ignored by everybody pretty quickly.”
I really miss that Bart guy and his Science garage
@@DaTT78 every og donut viewers miss him..😢
@@lolyeet119 what happened to him?
@@yeahboi8680 got canned
@@skuylerknisely404 canned?
What i love about this channel, irs just love for cars all of it, everything about em passion, all aspects the community in a hole is awesome
One of my all time favorite uptospeed episodes ❤️
The car companies talking like south park canadians is literally the best thing I've seen last year and this year lol
“Seriously you guys this is....” 😂😂😂
*Companies*, but yes, I noticed the similarity myself
@@TBustah there is that better after working all day and 5 shots of vodka wasn't paying much attention to what I was typing lmao
I feel like James had so much fun recording the voice overs.
@@metaloverdose I bet would be hilarious
The car company meeting is the best thing I've seen in a long time.
For REAL
still laughing
Mow powah baebae !!!!
the isuzu bit got me in stitches
Subaru wasn't invited, damn
I used to want to be a automobile designer... and for a time I got to messing around with the idea of making body kits.
To begin with I was drawing the whole car but later I got the idea to take a photo of the car and slice off all the parts I wanted to change and essentially tried to draw it in "the right way"
this is making me reconsider this hobby and possibly take it up as a real business.
That was an awesome episode!!! those rocket bunny kits are freakin awesome!!!
James’ enthusiasm from the first up to speed to now is just insane
One day when I'm fortunate enough to visit Disneyland Tokyo, I'll slap a Pandem sticker to the Cinderella ride to pay tribute to Miura-san

I LOVE THESE TYPE OF VIDEOS. IT'S LIKE WATCHING A NETFLIX DOCUMENTARY. WELL-RESEARCHED AND ENTERTAINING.

Goes to sell it... "Perfect condition. Mature Owner."
It's the first of April, short month 😅

It had me thinking that the car was actually pretty fragile
Isuzu: I think, It's really nice, that you guys invited me.
Had me dying 😂😂😂
Same.
That whole segment was gg.
They didn’t invite Mitsubishi or Subaru though :(
@@johntruitt7433 They probably were invited. Started arguing the moment they met each other at the parking lot though.
Had me cracking up 😂
love videos like this , lots of information
Best episode..HANDS DOWN🙌🏾
I am so happy that this wasn’t just gonna be an April fools joke. This was the most enjoyable history lesson I’ve ever had
I n. I mf. I
I was expecting an April Fools video but instead got this master piece
You came here looking for copper, but instead you found gold UwU👌
Docta byte eww woo
Eww
Wow this was awesome, wish you did longer form content like this still
Thanks James, you made my day today as I have to go to school today. thanks and keep it up.
This is the most well made Donut episode I’ve ever seen.
that editing tho
Yeah for real tho, best episode ever
It seriously is
Ryan Hailey of Ryan's Shorts may be responsible for some of that editing magic. He's done great editing for Funhaus for a while.
That's because of my boy Ryan!
"THIS IS EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW, TO GET UP TO SPEED ON... " I miss those words
Follow by "I'm back bitch" makes this even better

This was a great episode. I enjoyed it very much. I liked that it was longer and told a story.
Great great episode!!!!!!!!!! thank you. you put a big smile on my face.
What a return. Ryan's chaotic good editing, rocket bunny, and all this on april fools but it's not a joke, what a world.
Hold up, does ryan edit for both Donut and Funhaus I guess?
As soon as he started Talking i Was like Wait..... i know that voice lol What are you doing here Ryan? lol
when did ryan start editing for donut??
For me its april 2nd
LMFAO Isuzu being wholesome is a great touch.
I freaking laughed out loud.
Thanks everyone involved!💌
Very good episode, thank you for the hard work 🙏
This got on trending and hit 1 million views in under 2 days. Really shows you how much we wanted Up to speed back
Shows how much Rocket Bunny is actually beloved in the world. The kits are crazy
He was gone, but now when the world needed him the most... He returned, and stronger than ever
Me looks more trim
I could watch videos with James for days. Very entertaining
First off like the longer video, I am able to just listen while I work or do other activities ,
Love the personification during that gentleman’s agreement 😂 and also learning more history behind some of my most favorite aspects of car/transportation design!
I can die happy knowing that Up to Speed has returned in all its glory.
You’re dying?
@@GardenGuy1943
Your brain cells are
@@justsomepandawithinternet ok panda, very cool
When the world needed him the most
He returned
I had an AE86 with a tri-Y header and later upgraded to a Mustang with actual HP but always missed the handling of my little car. Those kits are sick
Really great job. Excellent work I really enjoyed this content thanks
A beautiful Ryan Hailey cameo. The man, the myth, the legend
Yess
might as well since funhaus is almost dead
Didn't think there was this much audience crossover.
Add knowing japanese to the lore
Dude I was like what the hell is that Ryan?! These guys really like funhaus first bruce whose next get Elyse in here!
Do Liberty Walk next.😍

I DIDN'T YET
Hahahahahahaha damn
I skipped past Doug for this. I’m expecting something great!
Lmao me too
Omg I did the same lmaooo
Isuzu was so accurately represented in that reunion.
Highly entertaining and informative video. I loved it.
i am happy to see this channel can inform me about my jdm passion like nobody
I love how eventually the gentleman's agreement devolved into them lying about their actual horsepower numbers.
Mitsubishi has entered the chat.
Lol
Holy moly, that meeting of Japanese car brands. Can't stop chuckling.
y

Really got me when Mazda got that mad😂
I wanna like this video but it's at 420 likes ;)
