What I love about this guy is, he is the only YouTuber I know that would genuinely link a free PDF to his car flipping checklist without any obligation for you to enter your email to be added to some sort of massive email list so he can sell you a bunch of his sponsors products. Hats off to this guy a very rare individual indeed. 💎

- i offered him 2500 dollars
- he came back to me at 3500 dollars
- and in a classic negociation we met exactly in the middle at 2700 dollars
best laugh of the day chris 😂😂😂you kick ass

"Man, flipping cars for profit sounds like a fun way to hustle, but I'm sitting on a $75k emergency fund that I've been itching to invest. Thinking I might need more than just a wrench and some elbow grease to get a decent ROI. 😂 Any finance junkies out there who tried this and actually made bank? Or should I just stick to my index funds and let the market do the heavy lifting? 🤷‍♂"

Dude actually goes the extra steps. Not just going for quick cash grabs, but actually doing respectable work, whilst giving a second life to old equipment/cars.

My dad used to watch your channel so much. He passed away four months back. Just came across your fresh video after all this time but without him. Miss watching with him. Thanks for all your content Chris. God bless you

Chris is almost at 10 million subs and he's still making videos the way he always did, no merch, no website with more videos, non of that bs, he cuts to the chase, gives good advice and good videos, and he always has, and still does. keep it up.

[LazerAceJames]

hey chris. just bought a 2004 hyundai sonata for $450 and it is running and driving, clean title, registered, and smogged. just had to replace hood and drivers side headlight and it loooks brand new. so stoked. watching this video inspires me to find more deals and flip them.

[Yawny]

Dude, you should start your own automechanic university. I WOULD DEF ENROLL. Love the way you break things down and teach

[Bossmodegoat]

I love how he’s not just showing how to make a quick buck, but genuinely shows concern for the buyer of the car as well.

[Coffmanantics]

What I love is that this isn't a how to hide flaws it is how to legitimately fix things and make it a car people want to buy

[teminator]

my mechanic wasn't happy when i told him i did it with a youtube video

[anthonyz.]

I used to buy and sell cars and made a nice living from it… I didn’t start out with much so I used to fix little things I could and be supper honest with the buyers about what i knew…. I love the care you put into the cars to make sure you minimize problems for buyers !

[lt.chickenz]

I love how throughout the video, all Chris was thinking about was making whoever buys this car happy. Goes to show what an amazing human being this is. We need more people like Chris.

[Anju]

Half man, half legend. Not only does he go in depth of the how to's. This is actually the basis of any hustle. Find a problem, fix it and charge for it. I'm not anywhere near as handy as Chris but the fact he's not shying away from the cars that "seem" to require more work is typically where you'll find the gems. For the capable or semi car guy out there this is pure free insight on making some extra income.

[gopet]

Buddy DIY has a such a great series on car flipping. Showing his checklist, tools, process and cost analysis is fantastic. He even showing his failures which is unique

[Davonmilton]

Dude shows you how to save money and make money without feeling like it’s an advertisement. Been a follower for years and let me say you are a life changer. Learned more from you than I have from anyone. Thank you

[meganw]

I never cease to be in love with your scene transitions. The typical putting OUR safety glasses on (to your camera's lens) is an old favorite, but the 13:51 transition from the 17/20 photo on the AutoTempest listing in front of their house to the actual in-person Prius in your driveway was just exquisite.

I love these transitions, every time, and they're SUCH an added bonus to watching your videos that just make it super fun and fulfilling. Seriously.

[anson__carter]

Watched the whole vid not knowing how long it was, and it felt like a reg 10 min video clicked off and said wtf this was 47 mins lol. But i wasn't bored for a sec. But im also a car guy trying start a detail business so makes sense i felt at home with this vid lol. Thanks man great work.

[michaelsillusion]

One of the highest production values on this platform, let alone in the car space. The way you communicate in the videos to the camera shots to listing the products it's all incredibly professional and informative. You're doing great work, ChrisFix.
