I loved soaking in all the info I could about cars, even before I could drive. Obviously the content online is beneath you and not targeted at someone like you. I still watch videos and read about cars that I will never be able to afford and probably will never see in person. Not everyone has an M3 in their garage they can go drive anytime.

You can laugh all you want, but I truly do. Mind you, same goes for folks making TikTok videos or being social media "influencers".

Even the Porsche Cayenne GT or the BMW M5 CS, will be seen more on YouTube than in actual dealerships or driveways. Companies are realizing that YouTube is a way to use halo versions to sell more mainstream versions or even to just elevate the brand. As long as one understands what the influencers on YouTube are trying to do and the companies that sponsor the content (not all of it is sponsored of course) it is all good. There are a few serious reviewers as well in there, but the reason YouTube exists is to sell ads and for influencers to get paid. Clearly based on the types of cars that many YouTube influencers are able to buy based on their sponsorships, tells me it is a good business. I find it fun and enjoyable. But I am also mindful of the context. JMHO. |
