5 JDM Cars RUINED By Clout...!

5 JDM Cars RUINED By Clout! WhistlinDiesel would've never stacked two Skylines together if all y'all Clout Bois didn't worship the Skyline so much. Actually y'know what, I think he'd still do it regardless, it's too Funny. Clout Chasers and Clout Culture has ruined Car prices and really the car community in general. People act like a car is somehow going to change their life, fix their non-existent Marriage, grow hairs on their chest, and make them a Main Character in Initial D, when in actuality, they'll be some broke boi bumming around in a 10 year old Civic they still bought for $20K because Modern Japanese Car Prices really be like that. You can buy a V8 Mustang for cheaper than a Civic SI in some cases. Like that's crazy. Y'all Weebs be wildin, even in the car community. Drew Peacock was right. Anime should've stayed separate from Cars. Y'all brought this on yourselves. I just make haha dumb videos, it ain't on me. I do still regret not buying an NSX though. I also regret my poor sweet dear child, the RX-7 FD from ever being desecrated by clout bois. Oh dearest daughter, how thou sanctity is forever stolen.

bro being a senior in high school in the 2010s must have been awesome for car affordability

[DanmakuMaster]

I'm surprised the AE86 didnt get mentioned. Just want to say tofu tax is a hell of a drug.

[ritchiesiepman]

Basicly the F&F movies made JDM cars expensive as hell. If these movies weren't made, i think these cars wouldn't be that expensive

[ASEM-]

I'm so glad I like the FC more, because while they're not cheap, they only go for like 1/5 of FD prices, usually around 10k under and mostly stock.
I hope I don't end up regretting saying this...

[theitalianjojo]

Another honorable mention should have been the AE 86 - it barely has 120 horsepower yet they sell for way more what they are worth.

[DangerAngelous]

The automotive equivelant of "I should of bought a house instead of being a 10-year-old in Year 4 back in 2008"

[Cloud_Macchiato]

Honestly kills me to know that a clean NSX was only 30k max not too long ago. Been obsessing over one lately cause they just seem like awesome cars to drive around in, but seeing prices now for them being 80k+ is so disheartening. Now its another car in the “pipe dream” section

[easternequinox]

You've nailed it. Anyone with a decently developed mind would know that JDM cars, especially the one's from the older eras are slow by today's standards and buying them would be more out of passion and just appreciation of the thing for it's legacy, not because of how it's hyped to be some monstrous supercar slayer from the get go.

[noobonthetube]

Part of the reason why Mazda stopped making rotaries is that they have extremely poor emissions

[JadieI]

What truly does hurt me about the S bodies is how kids nowadays take them cut the body and fenders just to make a “drift missile” that ends up wrecked and in a junkyard or it ends up on marketplace for 10K with plastic fenders etc like smh.

[johnpark]

I'm genuinely disgusted by clout boi culture, those mf's just
ruined every and any chance of regular people being able to
afford a cool car, over-hype them, and always expect too much
out of them. The Supras and R34s will never be the same again.

[toughtntmandoesanimations]

I feel like I can't admit to loving the RX-7 and Skyline GTRs because of their reputation. They are genuinely beautiful pieces of engineering that I'll never be able to own now.

[Jimmy-hrty]

I absolutely agree that the clout has damaged the reputation and ability to obtain these cars. It does make me sad because as much as I would want a Skyline or Silvia I just want a car I can be proud of taking care of and working on to be in my vision. On top of that what's also unfortunate is that depending on the car the parts can be so expensive so while some may have spent so much to get the car initially they'll have to spend a good chunk more for parts. Good video though and happy you touched up on this topic.🤟

[LightBeerTV]

I always wanted a R32 skyline since I played Gran Turismo 1 when I was a little kid in the late 90's.
So I bought a bone stock R32 GTS-T for 7500 USD in the UK in 2019 and it lived up to my expectations.
Spent so much money restoring/repairing it that people around me think i'm stupid, but that car means a lot to me. 😅

[rudrakshmishra]

I'll admit that Im a GTR fan boy but i didnt become one by watching paul walker drift away in f&f, my obsession cam from watching old racing videos. And this is exactly why only the C10 and the R32 are the ones that i actually like. And despite not owning a single one, it emotionally hurts too much when i see one getting trashed or be converted to a 1000hp build

[DiscoBallGaming]

If your doing a US version, the 1969-1970 Dodge Charger is ABSOLUTELY worth mentioning, they destroyed so many in Dukes of Hazard, they had to search for owners with a helicopter

[WRX_Caleb_Earl]

Tuner car culture is based on price; you used to be able to find a 240 or something for $500 from an old lady; now you’re watching them sell for $5, 000 full of rust

[Ashkanz]

The story about the car looking cooler in the movie, is exactly why you should be aware that you'll never know what it's truly like until you drive it.

[acenigerian]

I feel like the mk 3 supra are still affordable in some places because it isn’t as recognisable, I had a friend bought one for $400 because the owner mistook it for an old celica. So you can still enjoy mk3 supras (for the time being)

[Adiya_]

Another JDM car that I think has been ruined by clout culture is 350Z (/G35). You see these cars on street takeovers, and honestly it kinda gave the G35/350Z a bad rep, in my opinion G35/350Z is pretty good cars, but their reputation has been ruined by street takeovers, it also effect other cars too like Dodge Challenger and Charger because you see these cars on street takeovers too
