The Reliability Concerns of Carbon Fiber Cars: A Case Study

Mears reliability is definitely a concern when it comes to carbon fiber cars. The high price point of these vehicles can be daunting, with some models reaching prices upwards of $75,000. However, if you factor in the cost of the warranty, which can range from $5,000 to $10,000, the overall price becomes more manageable. With proper maintenance and care, a carbon fiber car can provide years of reliable service. In fact, many owners have reported high mileage without major issues, making it a worthwhile investment for those who want a fast and great-performing supercar.

A Comparison with Other Cars in the Same Price Range

When considering a carbon fiber car like the Mears, it's essential to compare its features and performance with other cars in the same price range. The Guyardo is another car that falls within the same price bracket as the Mears. While both cars offer impressive performance, the Mears stands out for its unique design and exceptional handling. With a starting price of $120,000, the Mears offers an unparalleled driving experience, making it a top choice for those seeking a high-performance vehicle.

The Importance of Maintenance

While carbon fiber cars are known for their reliability, regular maintenance is still crucial to ensure they continue running smoothly. Shane, one of the hosts, shared his personal experience with maintaining his Mustang, which serves as a great example of the importance of upkeep. With proper care, a carbon fiber car can last for years, providing countless hours of enjoyment behind the wheel.

New Merchandise and Giveaways

The hosts at the farm are always excited to announce new merchandise and giveaways to their audience. This time around, they revealed new t-shirts, stickers, and other goodies that fans can purchase or enter to win. With each purchase, customers receive an entry into a drawing for exclusive items, making it an exciting experience for all involved.

Favorite Generations of the GT500

When it comes to the Ford Mustang, opinions on the best generation are often subjective. For one host, the 2013 model stands out for its unique design, which still looks timeless today. Others prefer newer models, citing their sleek and modern aesthetic. Regardless of personal preference, each generation of the GT500 offers a distinct driving experience that sets it apart from others in its class.

Shane's Experience with Mustang Ownership

One host shared his own experiences as a Mustang owner, highlighting the camaraderie that comes with sharing passion for the iconic car. Shane and another host bond over their similar heights, leading to some lighthearted moments in the studio. With Shane's enthusiasm infectious, he brings joy and excitement to the conversation, making it an entertaining read.

The New Fire: A Reflective Headlight Feature

A new feature on the latest GT500 models is the reflective headlights, which add a touch of sophistication to the vehicle's design. The hosts were thrilled to share this update with their audience, highlighting its benefits and aesthetics. With the new headlight technology, drivers can enjoy improved visibility on the road while maintaining the car's sleek appearance.

Manual Transmission: A Driving Experience Like No Other

The manual transmission in the GT500 is widely regarded as one of the best in the industry. For those who have never driven a stick shift, fear not – Shane and his hosts will teach you how to navigate this complex process with ease. With smooth shifting and responsive handling, the manual transmission offers an unparalleled driving experience that's hard to match.

The 2,600-Mile Superstar: A Clean Title Car for Sale

A rare opportunity has arisen for fans of the GT500 – a nearly new car is up for sale, boasting only 2,600 miles on the odometer. With a clean title and no accidents in its history, this vehicle represents an exceptional chance to own a high-performance car without breaking the bank.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: engood afternoon guys and welcome to the channel I hope you guys are having a great day so this is going to be an intro that you know I wasn't really planning I have other content filmed as you can see I'm at the beach right now the dirty max is here my mom's Mini Cooper is here my brothers Range Rover is here so we're having a great time little family vacation but unfortunately something came up during this vacation just yesterday actually that I really felt like I had to talk about right away so I wanted to include it in this upload even though we're talking about I think this this upload I think I'm gonna put this in front of his all about wrapping the zr1 but anyway my really good friend Troy sours who I'm sure you guys know Troy sours the guy with the white McLaren 12c he's actually who got me into MacLaren's a couple years back when we went up to pick up we went down to pick up his car in Georgia he got his YouTube channel deleted and this was not by YouTube or you know some mistake this was a malicious person a malicious company out there fishing for youtubers and for some reason it seems like only automotive youtubers are being affected and they're getting access to the channels and deleting the channels that they gain access to and it's weird because they're not even asking for money or anything like that they're just deleting the channels I searched rois hours which I'm sure a lot of you guys watched his videos and were subscribed he's just gone he's completely gone the only thing that comes up is life Apollo's video this morning who I talked to on the phone last night his video comes up and you know videos with Troy in it like from obsessed garage but it's like the Troy sours channel never even existed and that is horrifying now I actually get emails like this pretty often to be honest and it's kind of scary but usually it's easy to see which ones are fake you know they claim to be like a Google email like about your secure like the security of your channel and say look all you have to reset your password and you know right away like okay this is not a real email but this one is a little bit different because it's coming from a different angle they're not posing as a YouTube or as Google and they're not trying to make it look like a security risk they are opposing as a company reaching out to do a sponsorship deal with a mobile app for like a game on your phone but they reach out and they say like you know we're gonna pay you forty five hundred bucks and all you got to do is click on this link and like this is how you're gonna get we're gonna link the channel to like to pay you and all that stuff and I didn't get the email and I didn't read into it so where I might have but I don't do sponsorships for mobile games so I might have gotten it but cuz I don't I just don't like mobile games so I might have gotten it and just deleted it I don't even know but basically when you click on that link what happens is that allows them to gain access to your Google account and then that trips like a security feature but they have access to your account so when you go to recover your account they can see that and that's how they actually gain access to your whole Google account and therefore also your YouTube channel since they are connected so really scary it happen - troy'd also happen to pure function the guy who coincidentally was just in my video from the other night when I was racing the Supra happened to his channel if you guys remember max T check vids back in the day when I used to get my Corvettes worked on at Andy's he used to work up there max got his channel deleted weird thing is and I think I mentioned this it all seems to be automotive youtubers so if you are youtuber and it doesn't matter if you have five hundred thousand subs or five thousand subs I've seen a lot of people getting this email be really careful do not fall for it don't even open the email just immediately report it as spam and you know I'm trying a lot of people might think like oh you have 900,000 subs like I'm sure you can just call somebody YouTube it doesn't work like that like I really don't have a I mean I have a partner manager but I don't you know I can't just call somebody up like higher up on YouTube there's not really anybody you can call so it's really tough to get in cotton I'm trying everything I can but it's not looking great to get their channels back and that's really terrifying I feel really bad for them and I'm trying again I'm trying to help but there's really not a whole lot I can do besides like hey can you please look into this and from my end they are saying that they're looking into it and getting it up the food chain but you know basically I wanted to say for two reasons number one be really careful if you are getting an email like this if you make youtube videos you know be really careful I don't know what their motive is besides just deleting channels it makes no sense to me and also you know if there's anything you can do to help maybe tag YouTube DM on Twitter Instagram whatever and maybe we can help them out because Troy had you know a hundred thousand subs pure function had about fifty thousand max had fifty thousand this other guy had like a one hundred and seventy thousand so it's really bad anyway I'm sorry to start on such a bad note but I mean it's really crazy Troy as you guys know like I said he's a great friend of mine been my friend for years and to see this happen to him and he wasn't like in everyday you know it wasn't YouTube wasn't his full-time job like me but he took a lot of pride in his channel he loved it he really enjoyed making videos and he took him a long time to get to a hundred thousand subs and to see that happen is really really really terrible and I don't even you know I'd be one thing if it was like they were asking for money and they would give you your channel back like okay that's bad but it's not that they're just deleting it I don't even get it I don't even get why they're doing it anyway now on to the rest of the content you know I wish them luck and I'm trying to help but this was just really bad so please be careful good morning gangs that is the best wake-up call ever good morning and welcome back to the channel if you all are having a great day we are headed to in chain designs to drop off the cr1 because it's rap time ladies and gents strike the black on blue is sick I love it it's a sinister looking car I love the blue accents which we are keeping the blue accents by the way but it's time for something a little bit different you know it's time to switch it up get a little bit of color in our lives here and I'm looking forward to not having to take care of a black car anymore that's gonna be great though I will admit it wasn't as bad as I thought like this car doesn't get that dirty but again yeah I mean it gets pretty dirty quick update on the zr1 for you I am still loving this car I actually made a post on Instagram the other day and you know I was saying I think this might be my favorite car ever I'm just I love it so much and I don't know why you know I wasn't in love with the first to see our ones as much maybe because the auto is so much faster but you know this car is super quick it sounds amazing like this is the best sounding car I've ever had by far I have more fun just like making the pops and everything with this car that I haven't in any other vehicle I've owned I love driving I mean I feel like it's it's great looking again the sound is perfect like everything about the car is just really good I am super in love with the cr1 I feel like it it might have to take the place of my favorite car I've ever had can you argue with that just look at it and what do we have here some McLaren filly inventory I do believe a 12c spider BAM busted headlines what's wrong with him yeah they had a lot of problems with the 12c headlights Troy had that issue a while back it's still a good looking car though a few years later that's a 2014 touching that was like a 2013 2012 this is when they put the button in the door now like Troy's car the original 12 C's had the swipe doors where you just swiped your hand then it would open it's pretty cool but it's kind of like brakes a lot hard to believe I know that that might break a lot but it was neat it's actually really cool spec gloss carbon orange stitching on the car carbon on the wheel it's a really nice spec 12c I bet you can get this for like 120 130 how much does not say but we could find out on the website feel like they're almost at the very bottom of their depreciation curve you can get a good one for like 110 120 130 for a spider carbon Mears reliability is definitely a concern but if you just factor in the price of the warranty for seventy five hundred bucks if you factor that into the price of the car and you prepare for it it's not a big deal and you can get a really nice fast great performing supercar for like 120 G's it's way better than a Guyardo which is like the other car you're kind of looking at in that price range rather have 12c than a Guyardo I mean reason number one boom so you got to do never seen a is here I know you go in the afternoon when I'm already going work oh man I gotta start coming in early you'd need
