"A car dealer lied to me" - no....really?
I appreciate your content, the way you do business is more in line with my vision of dealership that I want to own soon. Keep it coming, you are an inspiration to many, no snakes on a plane here. Thank you Craig.
not trying to be that guy but the audio is really quite then loud for me
Craig, audio levels were rough on this video but otherwise, another entertaining 15 minutes. Thanks.
thanks for watching!
Hey Craig, I've been watching your channel now for awhile and thought I should finally write you a quick post to let you know that you do a great job! Very entertaining and your "prank gone wrong" with your mechanic that wasn't showing up on time was great😂🚔❗He definitely didn't deserve to work for you any longer and you handled that perfectly. Keep up the good work brother and I can't wait to see the Ferrari you end up buying! 🏎️ Btw- I didn't hear anything wrong with the audio, not sure what these other people are listening to videos on these days🤔???
@@FlyingWrenchAutoGarage thanks!
Crap audio,,,
It seems it’s your first videos🤦♂️
I’ve been trying to flip cars but I always end up getting attached to them and spend more money than I should on them 😂 thank you for the uploads very entertaining!
When you sold your truck today in California and you live in Massachusetts and you are on the way to my family’s condo, may act up in a few days who knows lol! I started watching you while I was in japan and I see your vehicles on the local classifieds and these videos really show your transparency as a dealer and I really wish more people would do what you do Craig!
Please learn how to do audio better so that we do not have to keep raising and lowering the volume. I assume you never watch tour own videos after editing because most of them have audio issues. Enjoy the content, just trying to help. ✌🏻
just trying to help but came across quite rude
@@cjbaldwin256 I agree there are better ways to critique.
Try not to hurt yourself when adjusting the volume....
Started flipping cars in October I’m on my 6th car right now I’ve been learning so much from your videos
how do you get cars to flip?
Awesome 👏
@@basel6829 I bought my first car from a family member for 300 and bought my second from a local public auction. The auction I use is non profit they actually go through the cars and try to inspect them, if they don’t pass they write everything it needs on the inspection sheet. The cars are donated and they have repos. I suggest starting at an auction like this if you have a little car knowledge.
@@lilrob19944 yeah I definitely have the car knowledge! How exactly do you find these public auctions ?
The name of the game. Dealers don't care who they burn.
*some dealers
*Most dealers, but yes some are very nice honest people
@@nodsib 95% of dealers.
Yeah, fair enough, 95% is probably accurate
yeah some... sadly most. I have a small car dealer in Las Vegas. I really care about my clients. wack dealers giving us a bad name lol
After watching your videos I finally just bought my first flip at an online auction hopefully it goes good! Thanks for the awesome content!
Good luck!
I love ACV! Bought one from them today! Thanks to you that’s how I found out about them lol!
20:16 that left rail in the back has been skated. shoutout to whoever chopped it
Another great video. German is the man and his skills are amazing. You two together are like Batman and Robin or Batman and Superman but your both on the same team.
Hey Craig. Great video once again. As a guy inspired by your videos to finally pursue my dream of vehicle restoration and sales (Thanks for that). Just love the idea of doing videos on each car rather than just pics, so sort of mini car reviews. Just wanted to know you camera setup? I like the idea that the video seems a little 'fish eye' so you get all of the detail in of each car. Great work man....keep it up!
Gopro hero 8
Great video keep them coming I am looking out for the next one.
Audio levels need some attention. Thanks for sharing
I'll work on it
@@FlyingWheels honestly I’ve been watching for a little bit and don’t notice anything really that’s bad. Love your videos man, especially the 400 to a Ferrari series!
I enjoy all your videos, Craig! Thank you for taking the time out of your life schedule to make these videos and teach us on saving $ and how to make extra $
When he sells it someone’s gonna make a video of how I was burned by a dealer
YES....YOU ARE CORRECT...A TYPICAL DEALER
It went on youtube for the world to see. There's nothing to hide and transparency helps on the backside. But hey, Hate if you must
The pictures were clear enough for you to zoom in on a particular area. Even though they weren't that close but they weren't far away either
You guys did a nice job repairing the minor damage.
Man at ctsv looks absolutely amazing great job to u and ur crew
Man I wish I could get my hands on one of these. Especially the wagon version
Driven the wagon ( not a v wagon ) and it’s really comfy but not nearly as spacious as it should be - the trunk couldn’t fit a double stroller which is my rule of thumb
@@adriandenson8855 if I find one, I'd keep it
40K you can have mine? It has 32k miles and makes 720 rwhp on E85
@@Joeshomegarage message me www.flying-wheels.com
@@Joeshomegarage man idk why you sell that beauty. Thing looks super clean
10:50 you're welcome
Thanks!!!
This is my favorite channel to watch when eating dinner after work.
Thx!
Looks like you either taped this late in the afternoon or happen to film on one of Sean's rare days in on time.
So cool what he does. Just started flipping stuff. Such a fun and rewarding thing.
Years ago owning a Cadillac meant that you made it in life, now it means you got played.
No owning a brand new cadillac means u made it in life buying a used high mile one means u got played
9 minutes in and I still don't know what the dealer did...🙄🙄🙄🙄 (Edit)
Vehicle complaints start @10:50 ...you are welcome.
New subscriber! Been watching lots of your videos! Thank you for posting!
Great video, because of your series i found a trailblazer SS for 5k and grabbed it asap
Whoa!
Craig, dont throw ur head back so hard when u accelerate u gona damage something. Lol. Love the videos. Very entertaining and informative. Lotsa love from South Africa
...gotta dramatize man...
I love the CTS-V's. I hope to own one some day. But personally I prefer the last generation CTS-V... I'd still own the newer Coupe's, but I prefer the 4 door that still has the 500+ HP. I don't really like how the back end of the Coupe looks like the older Eldorado.
I hate when that happens! Thank goodness for dealers like us! ❤
No wayyy... this isn’t the one you just bought is it?? That things beautiful!
I have 2
I'm looking for one too how much
Hey , how did you sort the curbing on the chrome wheels?? Love the channel iinspired the set up of my business and channel
always love the vids and watch every upload but you still havent fixed the audio bro :p Randy at AAR uses the Rhode 2 wireless or somethin like that and its perfect.
What grit do you wetsand with before buffing the paint? Do you wetsand the entire car even if it didnt need it in certain spots? Thanks
Just found your channel. Like the content and you seem like a really good guy. I’d buy a car from you if I lived nearby.
Great video - integrity is important in your business.
The more I watch your videos the more I like Cadillac. I'm not sure that's a good thing for my bank account lol. Great video. Great car. Keep em comin'!
Damm that paint job at first come out horrible glad you got it fixed tho
How did you not notice the taped up front bumper and the curbed wheels when you first took delivery of it?
It’s a pretty Cadillac for sure
This is awesome just subbed
Thx!
I'm so inspired to buy one now. Thanks for this video!
Love your videos watch all of them. That audio tho phones on max and my truck volumes all the way up and when a commercial hits... wow it gets fucking loud lol
Hi Craig
I’ll probably come see u when I’m ready to buy my next truck ( has to be 4x4) lol
Did u ever put one of ur sport cars on a DYNO ?????
Thanks ,
I enjoy ur channel 👍
I am interested in buying the textured coating used on the passenger door in this video. I looked in the amazon store, but didn't see it. What was used? Thanks.
Audio levels jump up and down. Content is great. Thanks!
Can’t watch this video at night… kids tryna sleep but volume up and down throughout
Honestly,for only 31k dollars for this car i would expect to have to work on it because clean cts v coupes sell for 50k euro in my country,so for you americans it's still one heck of a good deal.
I love those cars too, but I wish they kept the open sunroof. I had an earlier CTS and loved riding around with the sun and air.
8:52, thats what those shiny things sticking out of the side of the car are for... Most refer to them as side mirrors or wing mirrors.
Can't believe you let that happen.. you always on point....✌️
Love your channel, Im from the Uk, so its nice to see US cars.
Love your channel but you have got to get someone to assist you with the audio on your videos. If you’re using a video editing software it can be easy to fix. Holler if you need assistance. Really enjoying your channel!
Really good video so interesting for some new buy and selling cars
Glad you enjoyed it
I hope you got a good return on investment on that beast. Excellent work! Love those CTS-Vs! 💪💪💪
11:50 CRAIG u are too forgiving Shawn is back already?? don’t let him trash your shop/vehicles or come in hungover or late he needs to be held to a standard. German is a very good one ☝️
Video and car project took 3 weeks. That was an old clip
@@FlyingWheels awesome man. Keep up the good work. Love the videos. Every time u post one I want more content from flying wheels great stuff. Wish I lived in New Hampshire I would come work for you
You add tons of value
I see the guy from your last video got his job back!
18:48 in the written description "front bumper cracked on passenger side", what is that?
That stretch of 111 headed towards kingston would be perfect for a top speed run 😉
i think the metallic one with these seats would look killer! keep it and sell the other one, black on black.
THIS WAIT IS TOO LONG!
Second time I watched this video because thanks to it, you make me want a 2nd Gen cts v
The volume difference between your voice and that intro was wild
Can you do a video with German showing how to buff a car???
Will do
The CTS-V is not faster than a comparable year Z06. They do have more horsepower, but are a full half second slower than a Z06 to 0-60, the weight kills the CTS V, while the 3100 lbs Z06 is only 50 hp down the V ways half a ton more.
Craig, are you planning to buy a bigger shop/lot?
So uhh... Not making the image of car dealers any better huh
I’m not a professional painter yet, but I believe the fish eying was from that HF paint gun. At least it looked like that $15 gun to me. Shipped from over seas packed with oils so they don’t rust. It was my noob gun. I took the whole gun 100% apart and degreased everything!
I read up before I used it and sadly most people don’t degrease their brand new $15 HF spray gun and get fish eyes...and think they did something wrong.
Caddy looms amazing though. Love the big boats.
I’m gonna keep my eye on your site. I’ll be looking for something soon and I like the way you do things.
Thanks for your videos. Did some binging on your channel lol.
Thanks bud!
:)
A tip I'm trying to imply is telling the story on camera but to do audio recordings of the what is said or investing into a mic to clip to your shirt. That way you aren't just using the camera audio. And the audio can be adjusted when you edit to help soften that. You do great work tho. Love the few videos I've seen so far
I get missing some small details but not disclosing the doors did not open?! 🤪
Craig, can you invest in a wireless mike to attach to you so that the sound quality is better.
So I assume this was filmed before the auction video you posted where you bought another CTS-V?
yes
Man I have been on the fence... finally got everything in order to start my own lot..
Is it even possible to make money with these auction prices? Been watchin You for years now!
its hard work and a lot of hustle
Sure. Buy from. Individuals and sell at the auctions.
Settling for a GMC Terrain is ok, you know.
But, I guess the Bulova clock is hypnotic for some.
We just don't realize all the computing that goes on inside a used car dealers mind.
Must be tough at times.
nice skate spot behind you
Is that the factory exhaust tips?? I thought the tips were a lot clean with shape edges..🤔🤔
Thats on the non V version
I am pretty sure you get 10 days from the day you receive the vehicle for the coverage. I use them some times as well
Mean machine thank you for sharing
Not sure i like how you patched up that door trim or the front bar to be honest but at least you did something i guess.
Seriously that looks like hammered sh!T mine as well left it alone or got a salvage door car lid and replaced/repaired it properly
Recondition looks good
The CTSV Wagon is the only CTSV that's worth its salt really, it's more of the novelty of having a fast wagon. Same thing with the V70R, E55 AMG wagon, E63 AMG wagon, etc. people just love having the wagon that smokes other cars. The Coupe and Sedan get dunked on by the new 10 speed Camaro and Mustang with relative ease even though the CTSV makes a good amount more power, you just can't beat the modern transmissions. You can also pick up the 10 speed cars used for substantially less money than a used CTSV, I expect the market for them to drop pretty hard soon. For that matter, pretty much all sports cars are dropping in price pretty hard as the old variant LS engine cars and Coyote cars get cheaper and cheaper by the day. Gone are the days of the $25k 4th gen Camaro SS, $30k C6 Vette, or $40k GT500.
Craig....Audio.....But by now you know this....lol
Nice car! I appreciate the power and supercar qualities, But speed is the number one reason for crashes and death. I’d rather just feel like I’m going fast, but I’m not - hence the pontiac Solstice😉 feels like a race car
Craig can you do a video on floor plans?
the mechanics back? glad you guy worked it out
I want this exact car but in standard . I will even take a ats or sedan as long as it is the big V and standard . They are getting out of control with the asking prices for them used .
Love these cars, My daughter's base model made me want a V. Its not the same supercharged LS9 engine as a Z06 btw, it is the LSA shared with the Camaro ZL1. GM never lets the value of the Corvette be encroached upon by a less expensive model
It did say there about the front passenger side bumper damage, in the “announcements”
It did. There were no close up photos to actually shoe the damage though. It didn't look bad from far
It needs flow master 10’s at the tips with any resonators deleted and it will rumble like a beast it’s what I did to my Challenger RT Hemi
I will own a 2011 Cadillac cts-v That thing is awesome and I'm gonna get one!
I really hope you would do something about your audio sir. Your contents are really nice and I’m a subscriber but your audio fluctuates a lot. I hope this would help you improve at least on your audio. Thanks.
Looks like an origami Corvette, it’s great.
Can't find that car on your website. All I get are 4 doors
both are there. Reset the filter
Bought 2013 white 3.6 for my wife, love it, thank you God, no problems
Got burned a few times on ACV. Have they gotten better with arbitration?
Badass ride!
agreed
