Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- Hikki Hut has loved JDM cars his entire life. A few years ago, he was able to purchase his dream car, a Mazda Cosmo. After buying his dream car, he built his dream home: a shop with living quarters above it. The shop transports you back to a 1970s-era garage, filled with all kinds of priceless decor and memorabilia.

Mad respect for this man, anyone who would give his stuff to others to help them restore their classic is truly an altruistic human being.
Thais are very much like this, always willing to help, some of the nicest people in the world
These dudes are Big Money. Family businesses that date back 300 years.
Brought majority of it in the last 5yrs… big money spent, awesome set up.
Once again, I’m blown away from these videos, and I’m not even a JDM guy…these guys have some impressive collections, wow!!
He's done it. He reached dream. Mad respect
WOW. just wow this guy is living every car enthusiasts dream. Mad respect
Brother this man is a true gem in the car community. Respect to his wife for allowing him to enjoy his passion of building cars. I am truly impressed 💯 all the way from Trinidad and Tobago. Great job looking forward to a revisit
Respect to his wife for allowing him? I've heard it all now. She knows what she can do if she doesn't like it. Fair Dinkum!
What are you talking about?! Listen to this 3:31 and this 8:47 . Respect to the man for doing his things despite the wife.
I mean youre with the wrong person if they dont let you do the things you love, like bruh :D
I love how his philosophy is "You cannot keep all of the things that you love forever, but at least you can remember them" so he has the scale models for his cars :')
That was my favorite part! I love the idea of making scale models of my past vehicles to remember them by.
Wow, he is so creative. His whole house is a living Japanese car culture diorama & it really makes the cars standout! Thanks for the video Larry & thank him for sharing his collection with us!
Props to Hagerty for hiring Larry. We love these videos.
TRULY APPRECIATE the opportunity to see all these cars .
Thank you Hut and Hagerty.
Larry Chen is important pillar of the car culture,, thanks for making these videos 👏👏
What an epic collection and beautiful house/museum! Well done Hikki!
Khor Pun Mak Krup Hut and Larry 🙏🥰 Wow! I’m really lost for words. I’m so often in Thailand for almost every major car event, I would love to visit this beautiful time capsule that he has created. Truly a work of art. Time, attention to details and of course money 💴🫡🥰👏🤙🙏
Not every rich people have a great taste but this man is the man...
Such a tasteful garage/house. Looks like the owner did a lot of work to make it this good looking and it really shows. I love how true he stays to his hobbbies. Also again: Perfect camera shots from Larry, such passion. 10:26 favourite shoot.
Life goal right there. This is actually what I picture in my head when I think about the house & storing space I want for my cars. Mad respect, sir. The Bellet was a nice surprise. Those are indeed incredibly rare, I wonder how many are still left.
OMG, this is BY FAR the best car collection video I have ever seen. Jay Leno needs to meet this guys, what an inspiration!!!
Absolutely beautiful home and garage... Amazing collection...
Words can't express what a wonderful home, and collection he has. So tasteful.
And mad respect to remember each cars he owned building a unique replica diecast ! So humble to share.. speechless, this guy is a true Legend..
This is probably one of the best videos you guys have made in this series, by far. All of them are great, but this one just felt something special.
There are car enthusiasts and then there are guys like Hut. To say I'm impressed is such an understatement by any stretch- he is living my dream, even if I'm not JDM only. Thanks for sharing!
This guy has impeccable taste. I’m inspired
Larry Chen videos are gold. Hagerty knocked it out of the park collaborating with him.
While this enthusiast's house and collection is so impressive I'm more impressed by you Larry you're commitment to the Hobby and the way you have turned it into an Art is amazing......thank you thank you
From CT
I could watch this every day, such a masterpiece.
Mind absolutely blown!!! Thank you Larry so much for sharing things like this as they are amazing to see and be very jealous of.
Hut is charming, humble, and a phenomenal talent. Mechanical aptitude and artistic flair in the home's design. The accessories/ posters create a special environment. I am floored by the gleaming engines - my kitchen has never looked that clean! Thank you.
There are some really beautiful ppl in the car community and i love when they are shown.
Repect,Love and i am in awe. Absolutely gorgeous
LARRY! You are the reason I watch all these JDM videos. You are the Number #! Show host on UA-cam
This is too good. What a garage full of amazing cars and memorabilia. You got to show more car collections and the car scene from Thailand.
Incredible! I didn’t want the video to end 😢
There are car guys.. then there are car guys… and then there’s THIS guy… huge love and respect
When LARRY CHEN says ,,i've never seen one" you know it must be VERY rate
Incredible layout and automotive memorabilia collection displayed!!!
Outstanding...ive never seen anything like this! He is living the best life!!!!❤
HOW DOES HE HAVE THE TIME? This is amazing. Great job Mr Hut.
This is what happens when you’re the sole heir to a family fortune and have nothing but time.
@@mr.butterworth Gotta wonder what he does for a living. That takes megabux to build/maintain all that
already looking forward to the next visit , what an amazing collection
Man that is Incredible 🫶
OMFG. This is absolutely stunning. I've always wanted to have a living area I could park vehicles in.
Thai car collectors go above and beyond. I really enjoy seeing these types of collections. Thank you Larry...
Love from Germany ✌️
Just incredible what a pleasure this being documented in film
I have never in my life seen such an affinity to 90s japanese cars. An absolute spectacle.
There is Heng's Garage, then there is this. Screw the man cave, these are the ultimate car man house.
Ultimate car guys pad for sure! Super cool
@@dougquon1174 A dump? Looks pretty nice to me. Got a pic of yours?
Really cool dude. A true gearhead that can turn a wrench also. Lots of props to him
Sweet Jesus....
Both the whole house, garage and of course the man behind it all,
Hikki Hut, has built the most impressive temple to JDM cars and
culture, that I think I've ever seen.
It must be unreal to just walk around it all in person, and it probably feels like
you could go around it for a month, and still not see all the amazing little details.
How he has the time to even concentrate on one thing, like the decoration,
or gathering all of the exquisitely rare JDM signage, or the car parts, and then
to restore the cars with such attention to detail.
How the hell does he do it!!! 😅
And again…….. a Crazy good video thanks I enjoyed every minute!
This video is one of the best so far. Hut seems so cool and chill but must be incredibly knowledgeable about what he has.
You know he's a true car guy when the parts he buys, collects and uses are more important than the cars themselves
beautiful collection. What a setup!
Blown away that's all I can say about it thanks for the share guys beautiful home and cars!!!!!
Can't wait till Larry go back to visit Hut again. Waiting to see when he finish the work shop
I love this HUT guy's personality .
and his passion
What a great collection, Larry thanks for the tour.
Why are tears flowing down my face?
Because his garage is probably bigger than my house. lol
The Isuzu Bellett is actually why I watched this video. My father and I had an Isuzu Bellett 4 door rally car we used to compete with… I learned to drive, and compete in that car. It had a fairly hot SOHC GT engine with twin SU carbs. Front disc brake conversion.
Also had a Bellett GT 2-door project car that was never finished. Brings back sweet sweet memories.
"You can't keep everything you love". Sometimes you just have to let things go. Words to live by for sure.
Wish this would have been at LEAST an hr long. Soo much to see here. All went by so quick. Never stop drivin'.
Always loved this garage design and theme and wondered who the owner was. Finally get to see a tour of it. Thanks LC 🎉
So priceless in all aspects of life .
WOW!! Absolutely Amazing!! 😇
Blows me away
OH wow. I teared up a little when I saw that rx-7. My dad was huge into jdm in the 70s and 80s, and his favorite was a '78 rx-7 that took him many years to complete. I learned to drive manual in that car. What good memories were unlocked from this video.
In those days jsm wasnt even a term anyone heard of
One of my favourite stories you’ve done. Great job!
Living the Garage Life
What a genuinely nice guy,looks very well balanced and without any arrogance
What an awesome compound
Incredible car collection and space. The vision to put something like that together so tastefully as well. And a very understanding wife!
Wow very empresive!
Wow, that is so awesome. I love seeing the car culture from around the world and this guy clearly is beyond obsessed. I would love to have a compound like that someday. Much respect
Unbelievably amazing!
speechless...... hats off
This is the first Hagerty video I'm seeing and y'all have a new fan.
Wow. Impressive.
that was truly amazing, thank you so much for making these!!!
Amazing 😳
Stunning! Great passion for JAPAN
I love how people can make that much stuff look great and made respect for all the OEM parts....also love the idea of diecast cars wish i had models of some of the cars i have had over the years
That was an absolute pleasure to enjoy! Thank you for sharing
This is another level. Respect
Larry Chen Did It Again!

Beautifully Curated 😊
I've been waiting for someone to feature his garage thank you Larry

I came here to say GTFO fanboy but left truly impressed.
What an awesome garage/man cave just crazy ❤😊 you can see real car passion, great video Larry

Amazing home and collection. I wonder what his business is because I have been to Bkk and Thailand and this guy is wealthy beyond measure for that country.
Absolutely amazing love the signage
