GT-R SHOPPING WITH PAUL WALKER 

Rest easy buster. I almost got tears as the anniversary of his passing a customer brought me 2 cases of corona beer. It was poetic in my own little world

For many who grew up watching FF, he was probably the reason we all got into cars. For Paul!

Every other RU-vidr ever in craig's shoes: Paul was my greatest friend! Craig: we weren't all that close. Way to keep it real. Love that attitude.

When I was in the Army I was fortunate enough to meet Paul at the Atlanta airport when I was heading overseas. He took the time to speak with us for a few minutes and seemed genuinely interested in what we were doing, despite the guy he was with trying to hurry him along to his boarding gate. He even took a photo with us. I cherish that moment because I always thought he was the coolest dude ever and appreciated that he was willing to hang out with us for a bit.

Man have the years gone by..rest in paradise.. Paul Walker..gone too soon

I'll always miss Paul... the series and the world are not the same without him.

I was into cars before the fast and the furious but the first three movies is what got me into tuner cars then JDM cars, as a kid I’ve always wanted a second gen Eclipse like the one Paul drove

Paul was such a positive influence on the world especially me. I didn't even know they guy and he made me want to be a nicer person.

Because of him i started loving cars, and specially R34, and i can surely say, its not only me!

I think the only other car guy would be Sun Kang, but we all grew up with Paul. Guy was a legend and I'm so happy to hear that he was a humble, down to earth guy just like how he seemed to be. He's a major part of why I love working on my car. RIP Paul

I was very saddened to hear the news of Paul’s death, right here in my back yard. RIP Paul.

R.I.P. Paul!!!Man, I wish we could time travel back to the day's when life was truly what life was about and everyone was genuine and not paranoid of one another!!!The 90's and the early 2000's was the high light of my life and I miss it dearly!!!

Paul Walker was a great guy all around. I still miss him.

11:08 I can imagine him saying that, your sacrifice will not be forgotten and it will never be in vain Brother

Rip Paul 🙏 you'll never be forgotten

Honestly I greatly appreciate how you are honest and straight to the point and stayed true to the story And how you didn't add in any unnecessary details especially with money and fame when talking about your friend, Paul Walker, and over glorifying some things like how some people would when they're with celebrities It's been a long time since he had passed away and really it's just hard to believe that he's no more especially as someone who had a great impact on the car scene and the community the Fast & Furious series just wasn't the same after he passed away with F7 being the last one I truly enjoyed He'll be dearly missed and he will be forever remembered for his character and personality my thoughts and prayers for his family and friends

Paul was like an uncle where I learned & wanted to be like him. We're blessed to have him root for the folks into cars such as him

Thank you for your love of cars. RIP TO Paul Walker for being the type of person he was we all miss him. Peace ✌️

For Paul. Many of us wanted to be just as cool. Nobody succeeded. Legend

Rest in peace, Paul Walker 🧡💔

RIP Paul. What a legend.

RIP to the legend, Paul Walker.

Paul was a loss to the entire world, we need more people like Paul Walker. I know i cried a little bit that day, even as a grown man i was such a fan of the movies and Paul's character, it was just devastating. RIP Mr.Walker. We miss you.

Till this day I can say I love cars because of that movie..

Thanks for sharing this story. Paul may have been the best acting "non actor" we have been blessed to have as part of the car community. You say he was the real deal, and so do many other sources. Gone too soon, but never forgotten. And another huge thank you to Cody Walker for carrying on Paul's legacy and stepping in for the movie(s). My heart goes out to the Walker family.

Happy you told the story here for all of us to hear. We all Appreciate it. Thank you Craig :)

He really seemed like an awesome dude. The type of guy who could really get along with anyone. I remember hearing about him the day he died and it was a huge shock. My entire school was talking about it. He really had a lot of fans.

Big time miss Paul Walker, One of the biggest reasons why I wont sell my supra is out of respect to paul, everytime I sit in it and fire it up just reminds me of him and the first movie in 2001 that made me fall in love with tuner cars, ontop of that single handedly building it up from scratch, getting bits and parts to get the way I want it and it still isnt finished since 2010 lol, Hopefully by summer 2023 next year I have the bodykit fully completed and painted.

Miss Paul and those early F&F movies will always be a part of my passion for cars.

For myself I never met Paul Walker but when I heard he was gone it honestly was heartbreaking and my opinion the franchise hasn't been the same since I do respect that they pay homage to him that's pretty dope I miss u paul rest in paradise thanks for the entertainment you gave us it will never be duplicated

May he drives in peace, while traveling to heaven. 😔 Thank you for giving us the best moment. Miss you Paul

Love this video hearing Paul was a true car guy

"Who loved surfing, guns, and cars" And also his 16 year old daughters friend.

2:04 That E46 BMW M3 in background, brings NFS Most Wanted Memories back. Nice Cars and Iconic paint job

Thanks for the video Craig it was awesome. I'm a big fan of tuners and the franchise, I also collect and customize F&F diecast vehicles. I make the wrecked red supra version from the 1/24 supra diecast and would love to send you one for your toy collection if possible. Again love watching your videos and getting behind the seen info.

Also..thank you Craig for sharing your stories with us so awesome to hear and see what you have experienced in the fast franchise and in your own life behind the wheel.. keep them coming..👍🏼

Thank you Craig for sharing such an amazing story

This was really nice man! Thank u

Thanks for sharing Craig. I'm sure it's not easy talking about Paul.

Such a great video! Thank you Craig.🙏🏻

This was so fun/interesting to watch, especially with the Paul Walker theme in the background! keep making more videos like this!

Thanks for making these videos & sharing stories! Rip Paul we miss you!

very touching to watch this... Thank you Mr. Lieberman for sharing this with us this part of the story about you and him. I deeply appreciate it.

This was a great story and probably like so many I was glued to my screen listening and watching. For you to say you you didn't hang out at parties or weren't buddy buddy, you guys shared a passion and his hobbies that made a connection, you were still mutual friends and kept in contact, your raw emotion at the end of this video when you brought up the crash and those memories just shows, you were equally his family ❤️ much respect Craig, id of given anything you be in your shoes in the course of this franchise

Well said in your wrapup Craig, very nice tribute.

Dude I sincerely love watching your videos and seeing the old livery’s. I had multiple variations of many of your cars on my bedroom walls as a teenager. The bayside blue with red stripes was such a gorgeous car.

Thank you for sharing all the great stories. Paul was one of a kind. Great actor. Not only in the FF movies but all his other ones.

Awesome video. Thank you. We honor Paul.🙏🙏

I actually met my best friend at my job and we raced our cars to 2 Fast 2 Furious and before that, I was into cars but when the first F&f came along, that's what really got me into cars heavy and When Paul Walker passed, the franchise hasn't been the same because I feel that the only reason there was still a decent car scene in the movie was because of his love for cars!! Good video and story!!

Thanks for sharing the story about Paul. Lost too soon.. Cannot believe it's been 9 years.

Dude.. thank you for your honesty. I enjoy your content and I’m excited to continue watching. A lot of information and how you talk about it makes me listen more.

Thanks for being here with us in here Mr. Craig and sharing every memory and knowledge you have with us huge fan of you, god bless you 🙏🏻

Great video Craig. RIP Paul.

We Missed You Forever Paul Walker.

Awesome video Craig. Rest in peace Paul Walker!!!

miss my idol every day. Love this video, Craig!!!

We Already Missed Paul Walker A Lot Forever.

Great story! Thanks for sharing! RIP Paul!

Very cool video. We will miss Paul. Thanks for sharing it. 👍

One celebrity that seemed like an actually, genuinely good dude.

That was cool I love hearing about all the behind the scenes with the original fast and furious characters

You Knew Him on a Better Level Than We Did 💯🙂Perks of Your Job

I still remember the first time I watched FF. the sounds, the civic's, ... Thanks Paul for your influence.

Lego is going to make the 2 fast 2 furious skyline next year. I can't wait to get this

It teared me up, when i heard of his passing and i cant to this day listen to the tribute song, without dropping a tear. The passing of my grandparents after that, certainly didnt help either. I cant listen to that song anymore, i have to change station every time.

The end really got me. I remember where I was when we heard. I was at my brother's place. We were playing games with my niece and nephew just goofing off. I got a text with a screen shot of the news and didn't want to believe it. I thought it was a hoax, then it was confirmed and I just remember feeling sick to my stomach. I didn't even want to be around people any more. I, of course, didn't know Paul Walker personally, but he was just such a good, genuine dude and it felt like you did. He was a tremendous loss to the car community, as well as the humanitarian community. Nice video Craig.

I think the year 2000 was the year I got into cars. My dad owned a blue Buick Grand Prix with a 5.0. 4 speed auto. Not sure what year, but probably from 85-87. Had the console shifter too. He ended up selling it after my parents bought a house. Wasn't a fast car, but as a kid it was a cool car to ride in. On my 10th Birthday I had a Fast and The Furious birthday cake lol. That movie, along with Gran Turismo, Need For Speed Underground games, and then 2 Fast 2 Furious movie is what got me into cars even farther. It had a car model of the Supra. I've always loved the green eclipse, but later in life realized it wasn't even a 4g63... same as Jesse's Jetta not being a vr6 😅. Now I love drag racing, drifting, rally, and pretty much anything car related. I do have to say I have seen The Fast and The Furious movie at least over 50 times. I used to watch it as a teenager. My dad still jokes about it. Now being 31, I still watch the movie every 2 years. I know the first movie is a little unrealistic, but it still brings joy to me watching Paul rip the "420a" in the parking lot and say, "SHITTT!" 😅

Awesome video thank you so much for reminding everyone of how amazing Paul Walker was and still is in our hearts R.I.P BUSTER

Great video! The gtr from F4 I read it was a kit car

Yo Craig Lieberman You are the goat since 2001 Also Paul Walker was very lucky to have u as an awesome friend my G Since u guyz met in 2001

He's the reason most people today are into cars. Rest in piece, Paul Walker. 🛻

I remember when you guys came to Hot Import Nights in San Mateo. Great memories.

Yeah,Paul was cool and down to earth to chat with indeed. On set of the Varsity Blues set, he liked my turbo s14 ,and drove it for a few donuts in the parking lot on set at lunch. We chatted alot bout jdm cars cause i was born in Japan, and my dad had a hakosuka 4 door,rx2 and rx3. He is missed indeed.

RIP to the REAL car guy in the movies

I totally agree with ya. Paul was just one of us and he seemed so genuine. I especially love that interview he did where he was saying that he loved when people called him Brian instead of Paul because he loved that character so much. I'd say the only other person that is just as passionate about cars is Sung Kang. He might not have a huge collection but he is a car guy and I love Tokyo Drift despite the hate it gets. anddd I hate to be that guy on such a nice video, I just can't stand where the franchise has gotten to with the all the crazy, bullshit stunts and the stupid plot lines. It ain't even about the cars anymore. They really need to just end it with this FF10... Thanks for the sharing the stories with us.

I remember working at Home Depot at the Torrance Crossroads in 2003ish, and Ken Takahashi would show up in the Apexi R34 for the Friday night meets there (I have pictures somewhere of him standing on my shopping kart killer '58 Dodge!), and I remember that Skyrine shooting 10 foot flames as he jammed down Skypark drive!

Great story!! RIP Paul walker !!

thank you, craig and paul for making me like cars

Great story.

A loving tribute to Paul Walker.

He was also into Harley-Davidson, Road Dog Customs did a Softail for him reminiscent of the old 40s-50s FL hardtails

You see. a simple suggestion of yeah you should tell that story to the youtube a verse. turned into a great share. dont keep these gems under the hat. let em shine. even if you think its a silly story. it means something to someone trust me on that.

That’s still a tough loss I loved muscle cars when I was a kid because of my dad being a gear head but it was Paul and The Fast and the Furious movies that got me into the import tuner scene I was actually 17 when the first film came out and 18 or 19 when the second film came out I use to have a whole collection of tuner magazines like Super Street, Import Tuner, and a couple others and I would look through them over and over again dreaming of the day I could build my own and have it in a magazine unfortunately that never happened but I had a deep love for Imports I was a huge Mitsubishi EVO fan I wanted a EVO 8 so bad.

it really doesn't feel like it's been 9 years since we lost Paul Walker.

A less known fact about Paul Walker is how he also used his wealth to help others by setting up charities and such. He was kinda guy who didn't make a big number of himself. A rare trait in Hollywood I reckon.

I still remember where I was when I saw the news headline. Kuala Lumpur international airport waiting for my Air Asia flight back to Hong Kong after a wedding. I still remember the shock and disbelief as I read of what had happened and the loss of such a genuine, down to earth and humble human being.

great videos always Skyline is my favourite. RIP Paul

He liked Guns that's friggin awesome :) i love guns and JDM cars also pretty amazing got another friend that has a S13 that has a serious RB26 Build over 800hp he likes guns also and i have a S14 with a SR pretty good build and a very clean car no rust at all. Paul was a legend among the Tuner community and car community in general. He was and always will be my favorite character in those movies it was such a shock to me when he died i got pretty drunk when i found out he died he was a hero to me and so many others.

Happy anniversary

He added an energy to the films that made them work

2:03 - aw, man - two of the most iconic cars ever in the same damn lot

Yep, We do miss you buddy.

Great video!

im glad paul got to drive those 2x gtr.

I’m so old I remember when MotoRex ran ads in Import Tuner and Turbo magazines

he will be forever missed...

Tuna no crust. Bought my first mitsubishi gsx 6 months before the first f&f. Own a 92 galant vr4 today. Started a revolution. Love making fun if all the quotes that don't make sense in the movies. But it's a cult classic.

Watching this reminded me about seeing an r34 skyline gtr at the long Beach grand prix that had a full movie look prior to the movie release or post release, I forgot. Do you remember which gtr it was, your hero car or a stunt car?

🙏🏻

Something worth noting, Paul’s qm1 r34 was fitted with a HKS 2.8L crate motor and made 800hp. It was fitted in his ownership and there’s a tweet on his twitter from 2012 about it. Really cool stuff and a genuine car guy. Rip mate
