I think another thing to recognize is to not let cars ruin your life. So many guys destroy themselves financially for the build.. I was once at a track talking to an older gentleman and he was talking about how he's seen people ruin their home, not putting food on the table, just to make it to the track that weekend. That was really impactful to me and toned down my goals for my cars a lot.

it’s not about being unique, it’s about being yours. the problem is people keep trying to make everyone happy

This is a quote I'm going to take with me for the rest of my life: "Don't be unique, be genuine". This not only applies to cars, but for everything else; I love it.

I think this is a great video for a very specific reason: I love how it explains you don't need to change your car if you don't want to. Have the car you love, not the car you think others will love. Rate it.

It's fascinating to hear people candidly share feelings for their cars that I've never felt towards mine. Still driving my first after more than twelve years and been content with its stock reliability and never needing a u-haul through college and my early working life. I suppose my feelings towards motorcycles are similar, though it's more the joy of riding than souping them up. Regardless, I agree with your sentiment. Be genuine, whatever kind of vehicle(s) you own.

You summed up in one video what is taking me several years to figure out on my own about the car scene. It also makes me feel good that someone else feels the same way about all this stuff. Long time viewer, keep up the great work 👍

I appreciate this message so much. It's so easy to get caught up in the hype of modding your car to keep up with other gearheads in the community, all in the name of being unique. It's all in good fun. I personally mod my car based on either stuff it needs, or how it can be improved. If I have to sacrifice a good ride for new shocks, it's not worth it. It's a daily after all. Mod for you, not for others. And most of all, don't break the bank. It's a project, not your living.

There’s a difference between unique and being yourself. To be unique your making those around you happy. To be yourself your making yourself happy.

love you guys. Authenticity is the driving motive that makes builds great. You figured it out. This is the wholesome content the car culture needs to see and hear. Keep up the great work.

Bro thanks for your video. Me and my father have a Civic here and we want to build a car that represent us. And for a few months I've been doubting myself if i really want to do a transmission swap, if it's really worth it. And your video made me realise "its the car we want to have" it's what we'll drive everyday. Thanks man, you made me even more excited to finish and drive that car. Awesome video

man this channel is like an extension of Forza Horizon in a way, the videography, the music choice, the topics and the hosts are even so much better than Forza's, i'd really love to hear these guys in the next Horizon game, they're calm yet so exciting to listen to, unlike forza where they just feel unauthentic and overly excited, but these people here from gears and gasoline are incredible

Literally just do what you like because its your taste, not to be different. My build is extremely unique and I literally just do what I like to it.

one of the best way of seeing things i've ever seen in car culture, thank you for your content, it keeps getting better everyday.

I like watching you guys because of how genuine you are on camera.

I love this video! this is just so genuine and pure.

This is why I love your's channel, or channels like Mighty Car Mods or Nightride. Because you don't make "WORLDS FIRST 99999HP PRIUS WITH 2JZ AND 60 TURBOS", but a relatively normal, down to earth stuff that (most of the time) makes sense, are fun to watch, you can learn something from it and most of all, aren't just a viewership grab. Like the MR2, your K swapped Civic (that inspired me to build one myself), other Ben's Evo (that in turn got me to buy a Lancer lol), MCM's S15, Yellow Civic, the Levorg, Nightride's MX5, beater E30.. it's just stuff normal people can relate to, appreciate and even do themselves if they want to. As Moog would put it, it's about the PuRiTy.

Awesome video! I completely agree with your take on this topic. It's interesting to analyze the Automotive YouTuber brain. Most of the time we are building things to get attention and not because we actually like what we're building. I think many people can learn from this. I'm late to the party, but I love this video.
