As the internet swallows up nearly every single industry there is, our way of gaining entertainment, doing business, and communicating also drastically changes. With the entertainment business in particular, the internet has allowed so many people to share their passion with the rest of the world.
Car enthusiasts benefited greatly from the accessibility of knowledge and community forums that grow larger every day and a few have garnered large enough followings to make a living out of their love for cars.
Well, I shouldn't say a few because there are literally thousands of car YouTubers who make a killing posting frequent videos, but among them are a select few that define the segment. Some of them have their eyes set on just muscle cars, and others on supercars, but one guy that brings many types of enthusiasts together is Adam LZ.
Who Is Adam LZ?
YouTube has been growing exponentially since the year it was released by Google in 2005 and you will have a hard time finding YouTubers with frequent videos dating back over 10 years but Adam has been posting nearly constantly since over 6 years ago.
At first, he was posting videos of him and his buddies riding BMX at a very high level. Over the course of his early videos, viewers would soon find out that he was a professional BMX rider. BMX content dominated his video feed for the first half of his career on the site and was still integrated until just a couple of years ago when his car videos started really blowing up.
And once they blew up, they didn't stop. Adam starting making more and more videos of his car projects, which seem to pop up one after another, and people starting flocking to his channel. This sparked a frenzy of builds ranging from all corners of the enthusiast spectrum.
His Well Known Builds
We'll leave the double-digit list of Adam LZ's builds for another day but we wanted to feature some of his popular builds to show off his taste in automobiles.
Porsche 911 GT3RS
When the 991 GT3 came out it was plastered on everyone's timelines. It was a 4 liter flat-six that revved to just about 9000 rpm and set production car lap records all around the world. So when the following generations came out Adam fell in love and bought his dream car. He first featured the 911 on his channel Feb 9, 2019, and has added an insane cup car exhaust along with other small mods over the last year.
Ford Shelby GT350
The GT350 twins- the regular and "R" variants- were, let's face it, the best set of Mustangs ever designed and sold. They look muscular, handle sweetly, and absolutely scream up to a whopping 8200 rpm. Adam bought his used to daily drive and lend to friends because it's comfy, has good highway gearing, and is fun on any road trip. Just a week ago, his particular GT350 actually caught on fire during a track day and burned the engine down and most of the front clip. He is now in the process of getting a new engine and getting her back to ripping.
2019 Ford F-350 Powerstroke Super Duty
There aren't many other trucks that are bigger than Ford's current generation F-350 SuperDuty. Adam Bought his 2019 model mostly for towing as he was going into his Formula Drift season but he started using an enclosed transport vehicle instead. Now he just uses it for utilitarian purposes and towing anything he needs wherever it needs to go. These things make near 1000 lb-ft of torque and with his PPI tune, he is probably making just that.
