    Keep the car Mark.....it must be in the custody of someone with a keen appreciation of Ken's driving genius, someone such as yourself, and it is my humble suggestion that every year, on his birthday perhaps, that the car be driven with utter enthusiasm in a fitting location to be determined annually, for all his fans to witness! Goodwood comes immediately to mind, with Ken's daughter Lia driving. Honestly, my heart weeps for his family. This was a fitting tribute. Well done.

    I can relate to this. I have had many celebrities die in my time and I was disappointed. When I heard about Ken I cried. I have been following him for years and he is the reason I got into cars and he became my hero. After seeing the type of man he was…I can’t imagine what loosing him would feel like if you were close to him. Such a warm, strong and loving man. My heart hurts for his family and friends. So much love goes out to them during this very difficult time.

    I think a museum piece that gets used and shown at events in a respectable fashion. This was the first of 4 and the very first one he killed tyres in. This car is more special and needs to be kept the way it was when ken sold it. Even pipe and nut and bolt. That's my opinion.

    It’s going to be a while before this one stops hurting. I know he squeezed every drop out of every day, but he meant so much to me and so many others. My heart is still broken. Ken is my racing/drifting/driving hero. He is the one I looked up to all these years. He influenced my love for Motorsport and my own racing and driving habits so much, and I will never stop appreciating that. I consider myself so lucky to have been around while you worked your magic behind the wheel. Thank you Ken, for everything over all these years.

    This video really hit me. My father passed away the day after Thanksgiving 2022. I purchased a house a month prior and was planning on having him move in. I hadn't spent much time with him through out the years and had hoped to learn more about him. He was only 57. Life is incredibly short and anything can happen. I feel like I took my father's life for granted.. It's been painful, then learning about Ken's passing... It has been depressing. 2 weeks following Ken's death I purchased an M52B28 w/ a ZF 5 speed trans to swap into my facelift E46 to follow a dream and to build something, a tribute to my father, a turbo car.

    while i agree, theres also the side of "how do we stay respectful to ken, while having fun and letting his legacy live on through his car." i think they would be smart to at least let it wait until this wound isnt as fresh. but after that, they should definitely set up a small, low stakes gymkhana or rally stage and let lia drive it in tribute to him and his lagecy.

Ken's love and dedication to the ever expanding circles of people around him will live on forever. All his cars should be celebrated around the world whether it's a racing event or car show. A reminder of a great man and also the technology that went into his rides. A museum residence would not do enough for Ken's cars and his legacy. We need to hear there engines sing again and again. Further more I really think a proper hooning is in order to keep his great free spirit alive. Donuts for Ken!!! Much love for [Hoonigan]

    from a fan aspect and a fan aspect only, i know ken would've hooned that car into the next life. this car deserves a final proper send off and then put into a car museum to forever remember Ken and the true impact he had on so many. He taught us to be dreamers, he inspired us to drive, he showed us life is too short to get caught up on little things and Most of all Ken show us how to not "be an asshole" in his exact words. I can only imagine what everyone at the team of hoonigan and those close to ken are going through right now because, even I, have the biggest hole in my heart from a man who only existed on my phone/ computer screen. I know you'll make the right choice for the future of this car.b KB43VER

I was in the NEC in 2019 with Terry Grant racing 3-wheeler morgan it was an amazing feeling sitting on the sides waiting to go out can't explain that feeling. Shame I missed you back sage may be one day I will bump into you.

    Give it one or two years of life, cruise around with it and have fun. It deserves to be showcase, given how prolific the car (and its origins) are. But do it in the way you had it in video: under wraps, seen from a distance, paid with full respect and honour. And I'm sure your connections with the Block family will provide opportunities for Ken's kids to access the car, should they wish to. And after all that, it will eventually become a piece of automotive history the public will get to see themselves without reservation like in a Ford Museum. You've done such a wonderful tribute to a man we all knew what impact he made in our world - a pioneer, a visionary, a legend. #KB43VR

    I met Ken in Dunedin New Zealand. he was out sight seeing and i happened to spot him at lawyers head look out looking at the surf (nobody else was around).. we had a chat and a laugh about the weather and the waves.. Truly humble guy , he asked if i wanted a picture or and autograph and i said "nah mate the memory of this is far better than any of that" He laughed grabbed my hand and put his other hand the other side of it and gave it a shake,, Best time of my life and ill never forget it.. RIP Ken

    Awesome respectful video. Great to see you put so much thought into what happens with the car. Definitely emotional. Knowing what ken was like but never meeting him in person I would think he wouldn't begrudge you driving it and using it how you want too. I think one if his kids driving it at some point would be amazing.

    The first thought, before you even asked, would be a museum but the only people who should advise is the family. You're in a tough situation. Good luck, what you're in possession of is monumental. The price of that car has just gone to the moon.
