5 Days to Rebuild My ENTIRE Car

thought my pc broke at 27:17

UP TO SPEED MENTIONED RAHHHH 🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸

At 27:30, his speech about taking something good, tearing it down and building something better, might be the most inspiring thing James has ever said. I have been needing to make changes in my life and this may be the kick to get me started.

The fact that this man has an entire cabinet of re-plated hardware makes this an amazing video.

Every car guy/gal's dream isnt a garage full of supercars. It's to do a no expense spared build of their favorite childhood car. James is a real one.

27:16 The new engine sounded so good that it broke reality for a solid 12 seconds.

Chris/Castro's is well known from the r3v/greater e30 community, good to see he's still killing it. Also refreshing to see a youtuber/influencer doing a good build on an e30 with brands/parts/setups used by enthusiasts of that platform instead of just throwing an LS and a bunch of random brand or ebay parts at the car. Love the car, love all the decisions you made, but man those headlights are rough looking. Some smileys with an LED/projector retrofit would really tie the whole thing together

I've been a master tech for years and I absolutely love to see another guy be so passionate, dedicated and thorough with their work. Chris is one awesome dude.

Thanks for the shoutout James! We're glad everything came together exactly as you envisioned they would. Enjoy!

The before and after of James at 4:42 is unreal! Dude prioritized himself HARD

At 27:56 "Sometimes in order to be truly happy, you have to give up what’s comfortable in the moment, rip it down to the shell, and rebuild." That hit hard, and speaks to much more than cars. Awesome build! 🤘

I think this is the most authentic we’ve seen him on camera, like there was no real playing around and he took it so seriously and with the gravity it deserved. Respect

Gained a huge amount of respect for Castro as your friend but also as a business owner even while letting you have your pick through all of his spare parts he did not hesitate to supersede and step in to make sure you were getting the best of the best taking care of you as his friend but also knowing that his work represents his business

26:50 sure glad they blurred that number plate... eventually 😂 also love the corrupt footage at 27:17

If you guys haven’t figured it out this entire video is both financing his dream car and also being a tax write off for it

This is the first Donut video I've watched in a long time. The plated hardware goes so hard. Sincere congratulations, James.

A 30 minute Donut vid? Oh hell yeah, I'm gonna love sitting on the toilet during work for this one 🔥

I love to see James not being a character and just fully being himself in the garage. It’s super nice to see him excited to his core about his baby being built

The attention to detial on this build is crazy, all the gold palltes parts takes weeks to find and have sent off. This is a true passion build and I'm glad james can make him dream beamer happen. You've worked hard for it and deserve it.

The miniature Up to Speed interlude was delightful.... It was so familiar, from the background music to the change to James's delivery and demeanor - the whole thing took us back to those old days. Donut still knows how to Up to Speed. And while it's okay to move forward to new flavors of content, knowing they can still do it when they want to is comforting to me. Also..... Chris's shop looks like literally the best place to work on a BMW project. Parts and expertise literally everywhere! What an absolute dream scenario. Will definitely be checking out his YT and socials.
