Learn why this E30 Touring is such a beloved driver's car and how Jason's 23-year ownership journey has transformed this classic BMW into a showstopper.

amazing car.. however those 2 are probably some of the last 2 people i'd want to be in a car ride with... one of these guys likely should no longer be driving given his recent history and the other guy is someone that relies more on shock factor than journalism

FWIW, the YT channel Stanceworks (sp?) is or has done a recent 3-series touring import and build..... didn't watch it yet, just saw title.

Watched this yesterday. I normally can't deal with Cammisa's antics, but I think being around Jay Leno forced him to keep that stuff in check. It's a decent watch. Not great, but decent.

So on a scale of Schmee and movie Senna, this is somewhere in the middle, you say?

Couple of clicks above Schmee, still miles away from Senna but what isn't other than the greatest movie ever made which of course is Monty Python and the Holy Grail. This cannot be debated.

I lost all interest in Jason when he blatantly sold out for Tesla at the cybertruck launch. Maybe I’ll watch this on mute.

Those "antics" are just his personality. I've met him - years ago when the scirocco.org group was still a thing. He's genuine as they come.

Then I loathe his personality and refuse to watch his videos.

He does seemed toned down in the little bit of this video I saw.

FWIW you can see Camissa’s personality in this video, as well as some behind the scenes looks at his garage setup. It’s an awesome fix of a banged up M5.

m539 has amazing videos.

Great find here. Jay Leno has seen & experienced more than most car lovers could ever know. He's a plethora of car knowledge & despite what some of the hater in this post might say... Jay & Jason are both stand up guys to the masses.

Tim off camera and from what I know is an incredibly hard working guy. I for sure dont mean to say bad about him personally. Not a fan of content or format but seen him in more serious podcasts etc he looks to be a genuine nice guy, and I wish him well.

To me it looks like most youtubers be it Doug or Matt Armstrong or Stradman or what have you get real bit of hate once they make it big. I mean whats the big deal, here I am liking cars and can totally do what they do, yet they get all the money and fame, not fair - seems to be the common thought behind the hate. I get it, but its off.

If Sreten (who is universally liked) gets bigger he too will find hate here for whatever BS reason forum people hate content creators.

If you want to see deep Camisa - see what he thinks about the recent podcast of Harris on Rogan. Really struck a cord with me when he describes certain things that went down there, and that podcast got rave reviews I recall.
