Darren "IShowSpeed" had a weird interaction on camera during his latest stream from the Nürburgring race track after a car seller refused to have a serious conversation with the YouTube streamer when he asked about the price. The seller flat-out refused to talk with the content creator after he tried to chat with him.

Darren has been traveling around Europe over the last few days after he got a house to stay in Germany to watch the ongoing UEFA Euro tournament. On June 27 he had planned an IRL stream at the famous race track Nürburgring in Nürburg, where he even raced in an F1 car.

While roaming the racing complex, he came across a KTM X-Bow with a for-sale sign. IShowSpeed was excited about the car and immediately tried contacting the seller. However, the person's demeanor was anything but enthusiastic when the 19-year-old YouTuber enquired about the car and declined to sell it to him.

The streamer got visibly upset when that happened, and while walking away, stated:

"You don't want to sell it to me? Okay then, just say that. You got it for sale, bro. Okay. What the hell is wrong with that dude, bro?"

Since becoming a professional YouTuber a few years ago, Darren has become one of the most popular livestreamers on the platform, recently crossing the 25 million subscribers milestone. While he does a variety of content on his channel, his IRL streams and football content are the most well-known, often attracting hundreds of thousands of viewers to his broadcasts.

As mentioned, he has traveled to Europe to watch the UEFA Euros but has been streaming from different countries. On June 27, a day after he went to watch his favorite team Portugal lose to Georgia in their last group stage fixture, IShowSpeed visited Nürburgring to race some cars on the famous track.

After racing for a bit, he saw a KTM X-Bow in a parking lot with a for-sale sign and considered buying it. After the owner of the car showed up, he looked irritated that the streamer had stepped on the car while looking at it. IShowSpeed apologized before proceeding with any business negotiations:

"My fault, my fault, yeah you are right that's on me. Hey, look though, I can buy this? Huh?"

The seller did not answer right away and eventually replied:

"If you can."

The streamer then asked about how many miles the car had been driven and the conversation turned a bit tense after the owner of the KTM pointed to a sticker on the car which had all the information:

"How many miles on it? Oh, it says it? I don't see miles."

IShowSpeed felt he was not being taken seriously and told the seller:

"Hey, I am being serious. I am just interested in buying this car. Is this street legal?"

In response, the man noted that the car had a license plate. The streamer did not appreciate the tone of his voice and stated:

"Yo, this guy is an a**hole, okay. Goddamn, alright."

Despite getting succinct responses from the seller, IShowSpeed still went through with trying to buy the car and asked for a test drive, but was quickly declined. The YouTube star was getting increasingly frustrated with the seller's short and dry answers:

"And it's going for $75K, right? Yeah? Alright, that's what it says, okay. Can I test-drive it to see if I like it? Nope? Just around the, okay. Well, how much did you buy this for?"

The man just responded by saying they should stop:

"I think we stop here."

Visibly annoyed, IShowSpeed reiterated that he was serious in his offer to buy the KTM X-Bow, even stating that he had the money:

"Hey, I am serious I am not trolling I am trying to buy! I got the money. I am serious though. Why do you think I am not? I am serious."

IShowSpeed had to walk away from a crowd of his fans after dealing with the car seller who refused to engage in any negotiations.

The reader should note that the streamer already has a couple of Lamborghini at home — an Urus and a Huracan with a custom CR7 livery.
