SneakerHeadInTheBay he also has good taste of shoes https://youtu.be/ykEPEi_pgwo
This rapper knows how to financially spend his money
How the FOOK does someone ‘Financially spend’ money?
That’s like ‘Gastronomically eating’ something!!!
Read a book kids…..😂😂😂
This is easily over $300,000 in cars and parts dude idk what you’re smoking
@Lunch Box
Lol u don’t get the point “financially spend” becuz most of this car will still be very rare in the past few years and will go up in value that’s what the op means
@Cole Holden
Lol the skyline can cost up to 230k…. Enough to buy a lambo
“all of those cars combined probably dont cost as much as a lambo”
Stupid
He in prison now
U just earned all of the tuner community’s respect
You earn their respect by building your own car. Being a great driver. Having deep car knowledge. Etc. You don’t earn it by buying cars lol. In every industry or community it’s the exact same thing. Name a community and I’ll give you an example. You can buy entry with $. But not respect. Respect is earned through skill sets, knowledge, and relevant history. People that buy entry are even frowned upon. I never understand how people are so delusional.
@Tom lee and what about the people who buy these to collect them? Theyre not car enthusiasts? Lmao Ive been in this scene for a while and anyone dont matter the knowledge of cars they have can become a car enthusiasts.
Drift Nation that’s all there is in the states the Honda version of the nsx is rarer
jonathan kiezer Just because you’re not a damn mechanic doesn’t mean you’re not a car enthusiast
@Mike The Boss exactly, dude want you naming every spec and crevices of a vehicle like you taking a 5 course at UTI. Is not that serious to be a car guy.
*Now this is how you flex*
@nathan._ until now good one clown
Yea
Wow it’s really nice to see a rapper who actually knows about the dope cars he’s driving. And while everyone’s modern luxury/super cars depreciate in value as soon as they drive them off the lot, these JDM legends will continue to increase in demand and value. Hell of a car collection my dude, respect.
Exactly what I would buy if I was rich.
Same
If you aint rich then make yourself rich
U don’t need to b rich
@Mike The Boss you don’t? Rich is subjective, but always comes back to wealth. You can’t buy all these cars working at McDonald’s bro. Be real.
@Elliot Hyun u don’t need to be rich to have 1 of these cars!
Kris Wu is one of the most humble rappers after this interview
He used to be in EXO
@ρꪊꪑρ ᥴꪗᥴꪶꫀ 5.6 what does that have to do with anything
This guy just BUSTED on ALL the rappers in the u.s car game. STRAIGHT UP.
DarkPaladin1996 gracias senor
Frisbe homosexual? I’ve seen gays driving more Lambos, Ferrari’s, Audi’s and Benz .
People hate japanese cars cuz they can only see tail lights everytime it passes them😂😅jdm cars are made for speed american cars (most of them) are made for luxury
@BaoAn Dy깡다구 the only american cars I like are muscle, everything else is trash
A rapper that actually know engine parts a miracle!
Keller Racing I’m not sure if he actually knows what’s in that supra, he pretty much just said it’s was a 2jz and it was running on e85
@Mitchell Obrien Yeah but he does have way better taste in cars than most rappers of any decade lol
This guy is a proper car guy not like other rappers
Gavs Jay ybn Nahmir got taste as well
Mans owns an r34 that’s not even legal in the US yet lmao
you can get them legally but its hard and expensive
Diablo actually they can be found for sale but reach over 150k there was one for sale on top rank importers and also YouTube Adam Lz bought one
godspeedelijah 😂🤣😭
He is Canadian so it really doesn’t matter if the car is legal in the U.S or not.
@Conscious 1 ur comment didn’t age well 😂
I respect him and adore him more after watching this.. I’m now motivated to do better in life even though some people around doubt my abilities..thanks Kris
You got this. Let nothing stop you.
It’s nice to see a rapper into actual car culture that doesn’t just buy Lamborghinis because of the price tag. Especially the Japanese/Chinese car scene back in the 80s-90s. I’d much rather see a rapper flexing a Supra than a rapper flexing a 458 Italia. I can see this dude being a part of the MidNight crew back in the 80s Japanese car scene.
Also Travis’ new album cover for the Jackboys is sick to me. RX7,Supra hidden in the back and an old bmw rally car.
Because usually JDM and collector cars, you need a bit of knowledge in terms of engine model, which model series is the car version for rarity etc. The standard rapper arent that educated so they’ll buy something with a high price instead and flex the amount they spent.
Okay
E30*
He’s Canadian
Kids Chinese funny he likes Japanese stuff seeing as China and Japan hate each other
Sure he’s not THE tuner’s tuner, but he’s enough to earn the respect of the car community GREATLY.
Kris definitely became one of my favorite celebrities after this video.
I can assure you this man have the money to buy all those cars and none of these cars were his, this video is designed by his label to make him fit in American culture.
@Zayne W Then you know nothing about him hahahahahahaha. Have a good day sir
@Audrey Chen he used to be in EXO
@Zayne W You know that he broke lap records on several race tracks right?
Respect to this car enthusiast, reppin the real car culture out here with some of the most legendary cars ever.
He deserves so much respect in this world, he really is something else💖
When a celebrity shows you a car it’s usually the interior but this man shows you what under the hood. Absolute legend
@Joe ok
True asf
He is gone .rapper became raper lol rip
in jail now
This comment did not age well
It’s so rare for rappers to truly love cars like this, usually they just bought expensive cars without knowing anything about it. Wu’s knowledge and passion into street cars as a rapper –is second to none, he’s for real.
Mans was spittin bars, now he’s behind bars
