Who payed the critics

What makes it different from others?

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

The cars are great, the host is a pompous ass. He may like the cars he pursues, but because he smells the MONEY he'll make reselling them. It's completely obvious because the show does everything it can to conceal ANY HINT of the car's cost. I just can't stomach Wayne's thin veneer of enthusiasm for the car itself (he obviously reads and researches the cars extensively before ANYTHING is filmed) and he love of the almighty profit. It's money grubbing flippers like Wayne Carini that drive prices up and are ruining the hobby.

Those posting reviews trying to suggest that Wayne isn't a car/motorcycle enthusiast or that he's just in it for the money are a)completely wrong and b) completely missing the point. First let's get one thing straight; he's running a business. Of course he's trying to make a profit if he didn't there would be no business to have a show about. Second regarding his validity as a car enthusiast I would love, love to see any of you try and match your car knowledge to Waynes. No one knows as much about a subject like Wayne knows cars and motorcycles that isn't dedicated and passionate about it and if you think otherwise you're only fooling yourself. Wayne's passion for cars and bikes is what drove him into this business and again if you aren't profitable you aren't in business. Now with that said as a fellow car enthusiast I find the show informative, entertaining and a true joy to watch.

I thought I was the only 1 who watched this show that realized Wayne Carini isn't a car enthusiast as he portrays himself to be. Every show does have him know every important person in the business. Every show has him drive and fly to these remote areas where vintage cars are for sale. Every show has a camera on him pace auction floors. Every show has him worry about his profit margins. Is his profit high enough for himself or his clients? The positive of the show is the displays of the rarities of some of the cars. I really like the old man mechanic. He can do anything. Now thats a car guy...The show should be about him. Not Wayne Carini's thirst of $$$ So if you LOVE Car Flipping and making $$$$ this is the show to watch.

When I first watched Chasing Classic Cars, I really wasn't interested in it. I love classic cars, but I'm not super into the high-brow world of specialty cars (i.e. numbers matching, ultra rare etc etc). I am interested in them for their history, but I find the circles that are involved seem to be not so much in my interest. Upon first watching, I assumed that would be the case. While Wayne is interested in unique and rare cars, he has a true passion for automobiles in general. On top of that he wants nothing more than for those cars to be on the road and driven. His knowledge of cars is amazing in its own right. His lead mechanic Roger Barr is also an amazing watch. No nonsense straight shooter with some great commentary. I would love to spend some time wrenching on some of those cars with him. Finally, to Newjunkees review. What did you expect? He's in the BUSINESS of making money off of automobiles.
