Worst FAKE THINGS found in Modern Cars 

I'll go first: Mine has those fake intakes for the brakes. Plastic headlights (all modern cars do). Somewhat fake-y diffuser. And worst of all - oversized exhaust with a small pipe siting inside it 😒 But the leather is real. Door handles are real metal, as well as all the brushed metal details in the interior.

I actually like seeing fake badges, because they're so hillarious. One of my neighbours have "Palisade N Quattro" on his hyundai and it's really the joy of my life.

*Carwow stick of truth enters the chat*

The fake engine sounds get me the most, especially the old ones on the VW Golf that just sounded like a cat slowly dying.

Honestly I didn't even know a lot of the stuff on cars was fake until I saw this video. Good job bringing awareness, Stype.

Man, stype keeps swinging and hitting all the time, good job man and I wish you success!

MANY FACTS MAN fake stuff makes the cara worst

I agree with everything accept the plastic headlights, not having to worry about stones destroying the headlights, or even the heat from the bulbs cracking the glass, id rate that as positive, because honestly, polishing the headlights after 10-15 years, not a big deal, the car would probably need an entire polish afther that amount of time. (Granted it might be worse in more Southern countries with more sun)

Some of these fake diffusers/lips serve a purpose, they often separate the airflow or create small vortices to increase econemy (but I agree that most of them are just annoying, like the new Supra.)

The new Civic Type R and the GR86 are a good step in the right direction. I also was shocked when I first found out about the GT500 and GT350 grilles, ruined these cars for me. Something we have to give BMW credit for, is that the vents in the front of the G80/82 M3/4 are all real.

The smaller amount of fake vents on the new Civic Type-R is something that makes me like it more; its just what it needs and that's it, also that is something that make the Civic Type-R a interesting sleeper for me, it looks a innocent econobox made for the average driver that goes from A to B, but inside its a car that likes to go _fast_ well that's a bit hard to apply on the new Civics Type-R, with that massive wing and the red Type-R logo on the trunk, doesn't really look like an sleeper anymore, but still can engage some tomfoolery around the track

Uggghhh. Faded Headlights.....agree on making me ANGRY

Stype, gotta say you make great content man… perfect blend of creativity, humor, and cold hard truth on this one!

To solve the sound problem there's a much cheaper solution: just remove the sound insulation, so you'll hear your real engine sounds, and not those idiotic speaker sounds.

Mine is pretty light on the fakery as far as a modern...ish car goes... (thank goodness!!!) it actually has real leather AND real wood!!! (but also real fake chrome... and those damned plastic headlight covers.) Your commentary was absolutely on point. I'm glad there are others out there that are absolutely fed up with all this fake crap.

3:31 Then there's me putting 'NISMO' badge on my old ass 2007 Avanza. 😂

The fake badges are gold. I once saw a Toyota Yaris with a BMW logo and a GTR badge lol

6:30 with modern design it's really difficult to make headlight covers out of glass

I don't own a car yet but I do agree with the fake exhaust thing. I mean, be blunt if you have one exhaust like the old JDM cars (even Chevy Cobalt SS is still being honest to herself).

3:28 me after seeing a car from Kerala in top carsTV. 😱 After realising it's about fake badges 😶

You forgot the fake brake caliper

This was such an entertaining way to start my day. Thanks for the video.

The fake engine noise from speakers is a turn down for me.

The river joke was smooth man 😂

These vids are the best. Keep it up, Stype!

Epic informative video, you helped me more than you expected.

Fake sound and exhaust is beyond hilarious.

Imo I think the Fake vents in the FK8 Civic Type R is actually helping with style. The fake vents maybe noticable but atleast it's not like the FL5 Type R which is being more plain and boring than a Modern Day Mcdonald's Restaurant.

0:49 That "nothing" sounded personal.😂z

2:08 Downforce *SQUEAKY!!!!*

I saw a legit Bugatti emblem on a kid's rusty Ford Ranger. I hope there was great story involving Pilsner behind it.

congrats! great channel bro!!!

Love your content 👌 from Germany

Gosh, stype just keeps posting bangers. This man deserves that golden plaque now.

I used to put hockey cards in the spokes of my bicycle to make 'engine' noises. Who knew I could have been an automotive design engineer?

I actually used to cut the fake intakes with my Dremel. It took a long time to do, and after I got a car with damage from water when raining and it was whistling when I drove it fast because of the wind 😅

The most That I hated Morden vehicle is fake exhaust tip

The small grille on the Shelby directs the air to the right place if the grille was bigger it wouldn't be better

I agree 100% with each and every one of them, well said sir

As a lady viewer (of a few years!) thank you for the inclusion;)

Im Muslim and so, I go to mosques on friday, and I swear, once I saw a second gen(XP90) Toyota Yaris hatchback, with a Nissan GT-R Badge behind the front grille, I pointed it out to my dad, and as a Nissan Employee and driver, he had a good laugh about it with me, and once, I saw a current gen Corolla with a Type-R badge on the trunklid, right next to the toyota logo

I literally found a BMW with the RS badge on it😂

Almost 10 years ago I got a normal Lancer, it was a higher spec but not the AWD, the last owner had put a Ralliart badge on the back, it was the first thing I removed. It also has a big factory spoiler which does nothing, I actually removed it for a couple of years. Plastic headlights are for safety and they don't tend to break as easy with stones, what is annoying is some still get sucked into buying the factory headlight protectors, which are also plastic! My biggest issue with fake things are the vents and exhaust, luckily my cars have real exhaust tips that are connected to the engine!

From RICERS to Manufacturers....there are A LOT of dumb ideas being glued, molded in, or built into cars that don't make any sense in the long run.

I’ve owned two M550d touring (the wagon). Some of the fakery but less than you might think. No fog lights in the front spoiler ( which didn’t try to be a splitter) because the ZF 8 speed needed a separate oil cooler so the other intake had the mesh but blanked. They had extended lips on the tail door ((9 mm, changed radius) to reduce “rear end float” at stupid autobahn speeds. The body kit was the same (ish) as any BMW 5 series wagon… but not really. Front and rear wings were wider because of the vehicle’s (unique) wider track. BUT… It had fake noise, trying to make a 3 turbo, straight 6 diesel sound like a normally aspirated straight pipe V8. I managed to get rid of the annoyance by a bunch of work in the software. It didn’t go any different, instead it sounded real (awful at tickover, wonderful between 200 and 5000 revs. Fake noise = 10/10

The legend is back when we most needs him

I saw a Smart Car the other day with a "S-Class Evacuation Pod" sticker on the rear and I liked that kind of fakery

I had cars with fake carbon interior: One on the dashbord (Ford Focus ST) and one on the seats (Seat Leon Cupra). I'm really not a fan of it, that came as standard with no other option. My car now (Cupra Leon) has a stupid diffusor thingy and also fake sound. At least the quad-pipes are real. I don't like fake sound, but if you would hear the inline-3 of the i8 without that fake, it would be even more awkward. I thing BMW wanted to mimic a typical inline-6 sound. It doesn't sound that bad IRL.

The worst engine noise fakery was when ford made the ecoboost mustang play v8 sounds out of the speakers

"fake b**bs" got my dying

We all hate vents that don't vent

The most infuriating fake thing are buttons. Instead of having actual physical buttons they all now have these crappy touch sensitive button. Just look at the VW ID 3 steering wheel. All just these touch sensitive buttons. You press them often accidentally, and when you want to press it, you have to look at the wheel to know where the button is instead of felling it. In general, you want to keep your eyes on the road, instead on looking where the button for the climate control is. Infuriating Level 10/10

Nothing worse than a BMW with one dirty pipe, one clean as brand new

I literally binge watched all of this man's videos and I wasn't subscribed? Damn.

I ONLY DRIVE BEAT UP OLD EARLY 70'S FLATBED FARM TRUCKS THAT SOUND LIKE HELL!!! AND I'M DAMN PROUD!!!

I saw a Jeep Cherokee from the early 2000's with the M stripes and the Audi S logo

A deflector came in stock with such a slow car as Volga 24--02 station wagon, issued in 1972. It was designated to evade dirtying of the rear window, however, didn't work well in this tole too.

In South Africa MANY people drive around in Mercs with the basic 200 engine but with the AMG badge on the back🤣 BMW does it as well an "M" badge on a 318i or 320i

FACTS. My new integara has fake side vents on the front fenders

Sometimes the fake badging can actually be hilarious I saw an old Mercedes C-Class with an Audi S Line badge Not an S badge But S Line A badge which shows that your diesel A1 has a sporty bumper

I saw a GTR badge on a micra 😂

4x4s with lifts, big tires, snorkels, roof tents, light bars, red tow points, traction boards without a single bush scratch anywhere on the body or under carriage. The fake is in the driver seat.

Automakers: "Dont write that down DONT WRITE THAT DOWN!"

On the Type-R's spoiler, if by work, you mean 'adds weight and drag, thus making the car slower, but able to take turns a couple of miles per hour faster if you are on a race track designed for a front-wheel drive car, but not on any city road made, ever', then yes.

Thr king has returned

Nothing can match the first generation Fabia Junior with the vRS badge on the trunk lid, the one with unpainted bumpers. I have truly seen such monstrosity. Just imagine a stripped-down hatchback with a 37 kW 1.0 petrol engine on which there is a badge from a hot-hatch with a 96 kW 1.9 TDI engine.

Thanks for telling us the truth

Great vid keep it up

I’ve kept the stock muffler on my mb 200cdi even tho it restricts a bit with a tune, because it’d just sound so horrible

I agree 100% with fake badges. I own sleeper cars because I love them. I have a 14 SHO. I'm honestly surprised I've yet to see a fake SHO badged Taurus lol.

My car has literally nothing hiding at all, no fake intakes, headlights covers do exist (not for long), exhaust has no speakers, and the interior is all gray plastic and it’s proud of it

What a great review

I like some amg series comes with “quad” tip exhaust but when you’re behind you could clearly see there’s only two

i remember hating on those front fake vents then after a few months later i saw a few car dudes drive around with newer mitsubishi mirages where they actually made the fake vents have a purpose lmao

My 2015 Jetta has one of those tiny spoilers. I thought it looked better with it than without. The interior has a lot of fake plastic carbon fiber trim, but the handles and all the metallic trim is real.

Yes Nice vid again Got an idea for The next one 7 most famous engines like The 2jz in The supra or the 1lr gue in The Lexus or the v6 violin just an idea

havent watched yet BUT i really like ev exterior sound and interior if done right its just modulated music right in the end

The Koenigsegg Regera has an exhaust pipe that isn't really an exhaust pipe. I think it's a fan. The Regera has two very small exhausts on either side of the false one.

my new 2022 car fakes intake vents but only on the left, not the right side.. why... and has some ugly plastic on the back. It also pumps fake 5-cylinder sounds in the cabin. but! the quad-exhaust is real and it does real growls, pops and bangs occasionally. can you guess the car? ^^

The plastic headlights probably are also for safety reasons, since it´s not glas that can shatter in a crash. Or something like that.

You are one of the only RU-vidrs that never disappoints!!!

Another addition I think would be worthwhile are plastic fog light inserts. I know that they're a necessary evil, but automakers could have at least used body colored plastic. But no, people who couldn't afford anything more than the base trim level are stuck with those ugly black plastic inserts that broadcast to the world how poor you are, as well as being a constant reminder of what you could have had. The same sentiment also applies to cheap blank switches in the interior.

I once saw a Persian-American gentleman put a BMW badge on an old Chevy Lumina from the 90’s at a car show. Real!!

I agree with you on these trends

The GT350 left grill whould work if they design a proper chamfer to it.

my cars faking reliability

I put a chrome "Police Interceptor" emblem on my Honda Element. I get positive feedback because it is purely for fun & humor😀

I'm glad my 7 gti still has real exhaust

"Fake ass" got me dying

1 acception for the trim. Forged carbon fiber wrap it just looks good to me even if it was fake plus I did not know it was that before lol I was like 15 when I got it

Plastic on headlights are also plastic, because producing shapes on plastic is much more easier and cheaper. Glass covers, as you may have noticed are way more simpler in shape.

The i8 is the only car excused from the fake exhaust treatment, as people wouldn't have bought it if it sounded like a 1 series, and they were trying to sell a supercar, which didn't really exist in EV form at the time

Stype, are you a door, cause you seem adoorable

0:59 Did I just hear that right? 🤣🤣🤣

BMW SUPRA had me killing 🤣

The new Civic (especially the Type R) is even more proof that smooth bodywork is 100% better than fake vents

Fake roof racks mounted on SUVs or "SUVized" compact cars. You see them, you imagine yourself camping in a roof tent, yet when you get closer you discover a note that says something like "do not put weight on these bars". It happened to me with my last company car, what a joke.

I saw an RSX with a full on Integra badge with the Type-R!!!

I actually bought a car that lacked the badges for the performance package it came with. Even the name badge on the back of the car was just rubber and one of the letter partially broke off within 2 years.

The mustang part😭😭😭🤣🤣
