I decided to live in my Audi TT in Beverly Hills, California. I would just stand there on Rodeo Drive for eight to twelve hours a day, just hoping to see cool cars. Every evening, I would park outside McDonald's, edit my videos, use their free Wi-Fi, post the video, and then I would find a different residential street every single night to sleep in the car. None of my friends knew that I was living in my car because I just felt like such a loser.

Then I finally got my big break. There's an event in Sun Valley, Idaho, called the Sun Valley Tour de Force. What's crazy is it's a Bugatti North America event. That weekend, I filmed a video called "Bugatti Veyron Super Sport Hits 246 Miles an Hour." The video got just over a million views in 24 hours.

What's crazy is that one of those Bugatti Veyrons is this car right here. Really, it's the exact same car. I haven't said this story in so long, but it's just like so crazy to think how you can be down and out, and then in one weekend, things can change so quick.
