David Dobrik explains why a random stranger owns his Aston Martin YouTube: Vehicle Virgins \/ New Views Podcast HighlightsHaving revealed his gorgeous new Aston Martin DB11 in a \u2018mukbang\u2019 video earlier in 2020, David Dobrik has announced on his podcast that he doesn\u2019t actually own the car at all. After \u2018christening\u2019 his new DB11 with plenty of fried chicken along with fellow YouTuber Ugh its Joe, David has now revealed it\u2019s not actually his car at all. In his typical \u2018matter of fact\u2019 style, he announces \u201cI just got a new car\u2026 it\u2019s an Aston Martin\u201d casually on the \u2018Views\u2019 podcast. However, not everything is as it seems. David explains that he \u201cwent to the place to get the car\u201d but decided that he didn\u2019t actually want to own it long-term. Buying the car for just three months? Asking the dealership if it was possible to buy the car \u201cjust for three months.\u201d He also stated that he\u2019d \u201cplug them on Instagram\u201d before mentioning that he would indeed pay them for the three months, as expected. Explaining why he wanted it for such a short time, David said \u201cI\u2019m going to get bored of it.\u201d Being able to simply \u2018get bored\u2019 with an exotic car after three months isn\u2019t a bad problem to have, but it did present an issue for Dobrik. Unfortunately for David, the dealer said their \u2018entire business model\u2019 was built on people \u201cgetting bored of their sports cars.\u201d This meant that he would have to buy or lease the car, and then go through the arduous selling process in a few months time. As luck would have it, an anonymous wealthy fan happened to be in the dealership at the same time. David goes on to explain how the fan gave him his card, said they should collaborate on something and left. Later on, the generous stranger actually texted him to follow up on their conversation. Clip starts at 0:40 \u201cDo you want me to buy the car?\u201d Saying \u201cHey, do you want me to just\u2026 buy the car, and I\u2019ll just lease the car out to you\u201d the text caught David by surprise. This situation not only solved Dobrik\u2019s long-term car commitment issue, but also allowed the benefactor to pursue one of his own dreams of starting an exotic car rental company. By leasing the car off of the anonymous buyer, David is able to own the Aston Martin for as long as he wants, and then simply hand it back to the buyer when he is done with it. While it is an unusual situation, many YouTubers finance their cars and pay monthly, so in reality, this is no different.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
