I like Europeans who have a word they latch onto they tend to be nice people
From my reading Diablo Jotas had a unique ram air scoop that fed into the engine. The black Diablo that he references to doesn't have that. Supposedly the Jota package wasn't officially "available " in the USA but if you asked the right people you could get one.
that color is Violent
I'm sure he's a nice guy but I couldn't possibly have any less in common with this dude.
😂 there is a purple one where I live on the Isle if man that's been here 20 years or so. I've been in the car and know who sold it 15 years ago. I'm not sure why this guy talks about the colour like it's the only one. It is not the only one.
This guy has too much money to tell any story worth listening to.. sry just how it is… i don't want to hear from rich kids..
What was the reason the gentleman sold his father’s car if it was his dream car? Major plot twist other than a story about how a car changed hands a bunch
is the purple diablo on johns channel a different prototype?
Almost thought it was Mike Majlak😂
JOTA is a special edition of the Diablo SE30 with 595hp
5:32 goodfellas 😂
Nice Lambo Story Mr. Hess 🤩
Interesting story! I knew of supercharged Countachs that were modified by a Swiss gentleman, I didn't know that another guy did a supercharged Diablo
I like this guy. I really like this car.
And……..directly
Random 3.5 minute listening sample- the word "directly" not used once.🙄
What’s a yota?
Damn, Cum-fiber the men in that plant must of been working over time to get that part made 😆
Life is fun with cheat codes enabled😂
That car is actually for sale
3:15 Lol, this is why I was destroying Lambos back then. 750hp is huge power? LOL. I had a 700hp Chevy V8 that I put a SC on and got consistent 1300 hp… in 1998.
Wtf is up with this guy and the word "directly" ???
What an amazing Story. Moritz did it. He is a selfmade Business man. Go forward mate… you have a Gold hand
Where do these people get so much money 💰
Pretty sure there is/was a Diablo Roadster/convertable here in New Zealand
for most people this guy is part of the .01% club. not hating but very hard to relate.
That was an abrupt ending…
The way this guy talks about these cars like they are “just” an enthusiast’s car like a 944. I know he thinks they are special but when you have money like this you talk oddly about them.
It's always interesting to hear speech patterns of non-native speakers.
To be clear, I'm not saying his English is bad or wrong, I'm genuinely intrigued by things like what crutch words they use, or phrasing that is technically correct, but has a slightly different connotation.
Very direct guy😂
I fell asleep after I heard him say Directly..🤣
Rich boys with rich parents talking about rich boys stuff that no one cares about.
Gongrats VinWiki almost 2m. subs, im going to Autotempest, I just got a fully loaded hightop conversion van 1991 chevy 98k miles I paid 3k..time to compare..
That is one SEXY Diablo. Thank you for another great video!
Amazing story, and also the ultra rich tell some pretty good tales. 👍
take a shot everytime you hear directly!
I lost track how many times the car changed hands… it’d be fun to know the price each time.
Honest question, do people still use the vinwiki app? I started posting around 2019 and there was a very active community on the app, now it seems mostly Toyotas for sale in michigan with the occasional interesting car
The app itself felt clunky and outdated in 2019, now its almost unusable. Plus the main utility of the app itself (converting plate to vin) is just easier to do with a different app or website.
Its apparent to me that the point of vinwiki was never actually to “document” cars in a way that carfax does. I know ed really pitched it as that, but i still truly believe this was all just a long play to manipulate the prices of certain cars. Now that the market is slowing down, its no longer serving a purpose
I DIRECTLY enjoyed this story
DIRECTLY
I wanna say this comment directly his way of talking was distracting I lost track of who owned the car directly.
Lame.
Very cool story…..grüße gehen raus nach Frankfurt😊
Day 61 on waiting for you guys to do a video on a woman out in NJ that has a crazy collection of mainly Saturns … a forgotten true American car !!
