Opened up YouTube this morning and it’s filled with first drives of the new 812. But it’s all from the more old skool media evo, autocar, pistonheads.
But nothing from any of the vloggers
Has the tide changed from influencer marketing and they were not invited? Or did they not want to go? (I know STG has mentioned that he try’s to avoid these launches as he can’t create unique content)
Autocar managed to make an exiting car very boring to watch. But nothing from any of the vloggers

Who's selling what?
Perhaps the recent drop in ad revenue is meaning they're having to trim out. I only follow thestradman as I now live near him, but he seems to be constantly buying and building things!
Tavarish, Hoovie and Goonzquad for three have listed all their cars for sale. I believe Hoovie has now sold most of his 40 cars, the total asking price for them all was something like $2.3 million.Perhaps the recent drop in ad revenue is meaning they're having to trim out.

I think having $2.3 million in cars he barely drives is the reason.

videos out of it, and plenty of money in the bank and get to keep the better cars in the collection.OpulentBob said:
He sold 23 of them, the most he got for any was $58k for the Hummer. The Lambos (all 3), and Ferrari are staying. I reckon he made a few hundred thousand, maybe a million, but he kept all of the big boys. (According to his last video, anyway)
Yes, I just watched his latest video and as you say he has kept all the big price tag cars and it seems a lot of what he sold was cheap tat he had bought for his reality tv show. I wonder if he is wanting to move away from cheap ‘hoopties’ and be left with a high end car collection not dissimilar to Shmee’s?sandman77 said:

But why are they doing this? Its weird EB, Tavarish and Tyler are all selling their cars at the same time?
EB was chasing after a cheap Veyron, and Tavarish was recently looking at wrecked Chirons. It's either just a coincidence of timing, or it's something to do with their TV show.Mark-E34-535 said:
Sarah N Tuned (I know, controversial sub, but the content is interesting, and the delivery is unique) has just bought an Audi Coupe Sport too - not the SWB, but still a very very special carhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHRwoy_N45M&t=...

I don't watch EB, Hoovie said it was just a coincidence and he got the idea from the others, Tavarish is trying to buy a fire damaged Veyron I think.Setting aside their YT personalities, they're in the business of selling views, likes and subscriptions, not cars per-se. It's another quick win for them, "I'm selling all of my cars" makes for a hell of a title, so they all jumped on the bandwagon.
In the end, Tyler didn't really sell any cars he really likes, but he used the attention to sell the cars that have run their course for him, he typically gets 2 or 3 videos out of a 'hooptie' buy "the cheapest in the US..." give it to Ninja / Wizard for the bad news, hold head in hands. Pick it up when it it's fixed and then park it in the garage/hanger. Once it's done it's of little use to him financially, he's better off selling it to free up space / cash for the next one. The market in the US like here is crazy at the moment.
