A wholesome interaction between a Supra owner and two kids brave enough to ask if they can hear the car’s engine.

That was so cute how excited those boys were. See, that took just a couple minutes out of that guy’s day but it made a lasting impression on the kids!
Love that! At one point he was like those kids
U have no ideas what dream n motivation he activated in those kids that’s dope n love
My son was very ill a few years ago and he’s obsessed with tesla cars lol for an event I knew a taxi firm had teslas in their fleet so well in advance I booked one to pick us up as a surprise. Didn’t turn up. Thank god I didn’t tell him before. Lovely to see him do one thing that made their day.
Edit. Post isn’t about good or bad points of tesla cars, its just a small kids favourite.
Super dope.. This was the Dodge Viper growing up for me. Then I repeatedly crashed it in Gran Turismo because the handling sucked. Sad times.
That was such a boss thing for that guy to do, fair play
Know that this is one of the highlight of owning this car!
The kid got so excited he moved through time n returned as a oldman
Just when you think everyone in this world sucks…. This happens.
God damn watching that whole video was worth it for that start up
I love that guy. What a good dude
almost every 12 yo boy on earth, for some reason
This was totally me a couple of weeks ago. Rang someone’s doorbell to ask if I could touch their wooly pigs 😂
He was revving for so long one kid aged 60 years
Be respectful and enthusiastic and there’s no telling what people will do for you. Good on the kids and the guy.
I always rev my car for the kids when they show me the “motorcycle rev” signal. Their smiles make my day.
Kid in the red shoes is a future gearhead he lost it when he saw the engine lol
He held his friend hostage at the door 😂
“So…er…what sort of security do ya got on this thing mate?”
I did not sigh up for this!
-That microphone.
Place I used to work specialized in Porsche. Teens (and more than a few adults) came in all the time asking to look at the cars. We always took time to walk them out in the shop and show them.
I always enjoyed that. The owner said it was as good for us as it was for them.
I’m 35 and those kids are braver than I am. But there’s a Ferrari F8 a few streets down from where I live and the next time I spot the owner, I’m gonna ask them for a picture.
Fair play to the lads for politely asking, and hats off to the guy for obliging them. They’ll remember this for a long time.
Small moments like this are what life is about.
This..this is our job as car enthusiasts!!! Show the next generation why we love cars. Let them dream!! I can’t wait to see what they drive in a few years. Thank you for taking time to let kids dream. It was the auto show for me as a kid and now automotive pays my bills and had sent me to some amazing places.
I have so many kids (and sometimes adults) come up and ask about my GR Supra. It’s not as cool as this Supra, but they still get excited. I’ll usually let them get in it and start it themselves. The way they light up when the engine roars after ignition and it fires off those first pops and crackles always makes my day.
Car guy making future car guys….fantastic!
The moment the kid says “Actually?” is priceless.
That’s a cool car owner and those 2 kids will likely become cool car owners when they get older. I love sharing my passion for cars with anyone who wants to learn especially kids
That kid aged very quickly at the end.
You could make this video into a modern day fairy tale. The man put a curse on the car so that it lures people in. When they can’t resist the urge to hear the engine and knock on his door, everything is just going according to plan. Once that engine kicks in, QUICK CUT, and then your a man.
I have a Mazda 3 with some stuff done to it. Had some kids on bikes ask me to rev it. Did so out of kindness. Kid no older than ten or 11 said it sounded like shit lol.
I feel one reason men get those cool cars, at least on some subconscious level, is to impress boys. Sounds weird lol, but sports cars and super cars, especially highly specialized ones like that one, are often the result of an enthusiasm for cars dating back to their own childhood. Seeing that reaction on a kid’s face is priceless, likely feels much nicer than some old guy saying “nice car”. That man will not forget that moment. I bet he never felt cooler.
This probably made the owners week, most enthusiast vehicle owners love showing off their stuff. And that is a sweet-ass Supra.
“You knock, I’ll speak” 😂😂 reminds me of when I was young
I don’t have a car nearly as cool as an MK4 Supra, but I have a car that a lot of kids and teenagers go crazy over.
I do exactly that whenever I have the chance. I also offer myself to drop off couples at their graduation parties just because it costs me next to nothing and makes people’s day.
I only have such a car because someone once did this and it motivated me !

Typical of older boy pushing younger boy to ask. 🤣
Not all heros wear capes. We need more men as mentors.
I remember back when I was 13/14 my neighbor always had friends over with cool cars. Modded beamers, vipers, etc.
Well one time, a buddy of his had a brand new 2014 STi in satin white Pearl. I told him it was beautiful and he says, “ you know, I’ve been looking for a word to describe it. I would say that’s it” and tossed me his keys…
I had no idea how to drive stick but I knew how to start it up. My feet barely reached the pedals, but the feeling of that car start lasted with me for a long time. He then took me on a ride and showed me what boost was.
I’ve owned a WRX and two sti’s now. These kids will remember this forever.
Man this is that this guy and every super car owner waits for. They love showing off their stuff. Every one made every one else’s day.
That was **really** generous of him.
The “no, *you* go” antics at the entrance beforehand took me back 50years and I couldn’t help but grin from ear-to-ear, so glad it was included.
What a sweet friend too. He went up with him to knock and supported what he wanted. Just a real sweet interaction.
As a corvette owner, nothing makes me happier than people (especially kids) loving my car and wanting to hear it roar. I love the warm months where I can drive it with the top down and I see kids with their parents pointing at it from the sidewalk. I love it when I park it outside of stores and shops and kids run up to tell me “I love your red car!”. Owning cool cars like that is such an amazing shareable experience. And giving kids the opportunity to ask about it and hear it is also giving yourself the opportunity to inspire those kids to own cool cars to share too!
That’s nice… I like to see that… now the kids have a story without criminal mischief.
I used to have a super loud S13
This disabled guy popped his head in the garage one day while I was washing it and asked if I could rev it up for him
I was like fuck yeah bro let’s go, bashed it off the rev limiter a bit for him, a lovely interaction I thought
Anyway that guy goes to my gym now and apparently he was just off his chops that day because he’s not disabled at all :/
That was a very cool move by the owner!
This guy is an absolute monster. He just singlehandedly kick started one of the most draining and inescapable addictions known to mankind in those boys.
Nothing I love more than curious humans, as long as theyre maintaining the bare minimum of human decency while indulging their curiosity, I will bend over backwards to answer their questions.
