TheStradman explains why he chose $1m Bugatti Veyron over McLaren P1 YouTube: TheStradmanWith many of TheStradman\u2019s fans hoping he\u2019d buy a McLaren P1 instead of the Bugatti Veyron as his first hypercar, Stradman took a moment to explain why this particular hypercar meant so much to him in a frank and emotional video segment. While YouTuber TheStradman \u2013 real name James \u2013 has always been open about his past, he\u2019s never really opened up about just how important YouTube was to him in the early days until now. During his early days of car spotting when job-less and living in his Audi TT, it literally came down to choosing between \u201cpursuing the dream\u201d creating YouTube videos, or eating a hot meal. One video would \u201cpay for two meals\u201d Describing the first time he laid eyes on a Bugatti Veyron in Beverly Hills, James said he knew filming an ultra-rare Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse would \u201cpay for two meals\u201d (through YouTube monetization) so he abandoned the pizza he was eating to chase the car down. Given that he would only eat out \u201cone time per week\u201d, for James to throw away his only proper meal of the week to chase the Bugatti down was a huge commitment. The rest of his meals \u201cmostly consisted of Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches\u201d while living out of his Audi. With the significance of the Bugatti making him abandon his hot meal for the week, it is only right that the Veyron would become his \u2018goal\u2019 car. While the McLaren P1 is an incredible machine, James said the Veyron \u201cleft such an impact on me\u201d that it had to be his first hypercar and it\u2019s the perfect \u201crepresentation of success\u201d. Clip starts at 5:00 Hinting at plans for the Bugatti Since he has now achieved his goal of buying and owning his very own Bugatti Veyron, it was only a matter of time before it was modified in some way. It seems that even the million-dollar Veyron is set to become part of the \u201cgrape army\u201d and Stradman practically confirms it in the above video. Confirming that the current white and black color scheme is a wrap, he says that he will be unwrapping it to reveal the color beneath. \u201cWe\u2019re going to unwrap it, and then we\u2019re going to wrap it pretty soon\u2026 you know what color we\u2019re going to do it,\u201d practically confirming the \u2018grape\u2019 wrap, which is only further backed up by using his purple trainers as an example. It seems we\u2019ll be seeing a \u2018grape\u2019 Bugatti Veyron sooner than we thought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
