Gotta be honest, had no idea Cena had the knowledge he has of cars. Could tell that wasn’t rehearsed. He was genuine. New respect.

[stephenflanagan]

This man holds the record for most Make a wish kid visits. This man deserves much more but is still very humble.

[robertmiller]

Ive never been an MG fan but this car is absolutely gorgeous. Well done.

Seeing Cena happy makes me happy. After everything he's done for the less fortunate and also for our entertainment, I'm so glad there are others out there who put a smile on his face. This is so wholesome 😊

Dude it's going to be crazy seeing a car drive by itself!

[discingaround]

Usually I don't watch auto content, but love 'seeing' Cena! This whole episode made me smile. From the thought & care taken, to John's genuine response and show of respect to the craft....it was all enjoyable.

Cena's the definition of a gentle giant. He looks like he could break my spine by blinking hard but from what I've seen, the only thing that's bigger than his muscles is his heart. And maybe his smile.

Beautiful job, it shows how versatile Bill and his team are. Very impressive.

[carnut]

I am in awe of how this car came out. I can not even imagine all the time and effort that went into that end result. My hat is off to the shop’s employees.

[BigKrisMorris]

Can tell cena is a genuine car fan, he has just gone right up in my books what a legend 👌🏻

[jeromejozwiak]

Under the hood is so clean everything about this MG is badass.
As I said there isn't another custom car builder that can make this MG any better than what it is.
Bill and his guys did an outstanding job on this build .

[davidportland]

This is sleek, boys. John Cena became a fan girl when he first saw it. He was super happy. Well done! Love it.

[johnpender]

Speechless 100% 🔥 love it. Its possibly one of John's best cars he's gonna enjoy for the rest of his life.

[magnetsoldiercephas]

That is one of the most beautiful cars I’ve seen. Cena is the customer everyone wishes they had. Reaction to appreciation is outstanding

[Pitsy]

That was amazing - when I saw the title, An an Englishman and fan of MG, I was worried... but that is such a gorgeously understated restored; shame we never heard the engine when the bonnet (hood) was up and saw the stereo working with those gorgeous speakers!! Well done...

[jtarrant]

True car guys always keep their hands behind their back when looking at someone's ride ! That's true respect! 😅

[stevet]

I've watched John Cena in a few unrehearsed situations and each time he is humble, a true gentleman and completely respectful. It's easy to see that this is no act, his momma raised him right! Respect a real gentleman and 100% man, John Cena.
BTW, that MG is a piece of art, wow.

[chrismann]

Bill is one of the top 3 car builders around they do amazing work at extensive.

FANtastic job The homies @ Ekstensive TX Metal knocked it out the park! Great job!

[DisturbedShifty]

I wonder if Cena went around and thanked each of the employees after that? He seems like the type of guy who would do that.
