Today I show you guys the new rebuild car project Mercedes S550 I just picked up from Copart! This is a 2015 Mercedes S550 I got delivered to my door for about $28K. The repairs don't look too extensive, really - looks worse than it is.
The heart to heart reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson explaining why people love cars. I'm so excited man, can't wait to see the finished project. Those S550's are beasts
just a reminder not sure if you know this but the SL spare needs to be pumped up before installing thats its flat state. this builds gonna be mad great eye on the purchase doesnt look like it needs much.
congrats man , im happy for you and looking forward to watching the repair videos , and you don't need to explain yourself bro, people will always talk, do what makes you happy..... much love from Cape Town, South Africa
Seems like one of the best run/drive vehicles I've ever seen come out of a Copart transaction. I wouldn't say it's an image thing but you like luxury (dude, footwell lighting? That's premium), there's nothing wrong with that, who wouldn't get one assuming they could deal with the repairs.
Enjoy, u earned it, doesnt matter what the reason behind u buying your Mercedes, for the SIMPLE FACT that u earned it , it makes u happy, what other reason do u need.love the videos

Someone once thought one of my cars was a "Status" car I was like 🤨. First upgrade no run flats😅. Cars will always be a utility just like your jeep 😉☝️🤟👽🙇♂️
Fk the haters. I also (finally) got an S class (also used) and some people insinuate it's an ego thing. I just go, "I guess you're right. I can't force myself to drive a crappy car"! BOOM! Shut their business! You don't need THEIR permission. Do what you like. Drive what you like. It's not your problem THEY have lower standards. "The best. Or nothing". Mercedes. Good luck. You're a good man with so much talent and blessed with a beautiful and awesome wife. (We actually like when she shows up! You lucky bastid)!
Those looked like kitten footprints so hopefully one wasn’t in the engine lol raccoons are pretty close looking. It’s hard to tell but I’m pretty sure it’s cat prints
What's the point of carrying the spare if it doesn't fit 😂 you'd have thought they'd put a full size wheel in the boot incase they were stuck. 🙄, well at least it's in your hands now so all is well 👍🇬🇧😇 she's a BEAST
I was going to ask if a winner on the Ducati giveaway had been selected yet (haven't seen anything related to it lately), but after hearing you vocalize about someone talking down on getting the S550...seriously if someone is going to dismiss your efforts on acquiring what will have an R title to it...they obviously don't get the point. Keep on building.
Announcement soon, waiting for PowerJDM to get back to me with the raffle data. They are sucking. They said they were on it but haven't heard from them for a week and some now. Thanks a ton, Shawn 💯
@@TheInja I actually went through all of the sweepstakes rules/info. Apparently they give the winner 7 days to respond to them and after confirming that they are eligible, they have another 3 days to get all the papers signed. So it could take 10 days from the time they draw a winners name. 😮💨 And unfortunately I haven't received the email about winning yet...... hahaha. Keep doing your thing and don't mind the haters on your "image."
