I know I'm going to get bashed on this, but I think he needs to get a real job. This hobby has enough YouTube experts. If you don't know the facts, then don't act like you do.

No bashing here. I already said in my previous post that he is spreading untruths and misinformation and there is already too much of that on the www. If he truly is attempting to profit from the sale of the cars he videos, he may well find out he needs a license to do that and run afoul of laws.

I don't think he is a scammer. He a social media hyped newbie. He lost me when he stated that the two marks in the Z28 trunk indicate the two stripes on car. His audience is not geared for true enthusiasts just an opportunist looking for clicks. I recall him at Camaro Nationals and his team member mentioned he was hoping to get a TV show ....

I agree 100% and was just thinking that to myself, which is why I try not to give them any clicks. VGG/Derek is great though!
