The content creator took to Instagram this week to reveal he had bought his dream car, the $100,000 Porsche GT4.

“I started this account because the thought of owning a luxury car seemed crazy to me,” he said. 

“I was not a content creator by any means, I was too shy to really even show my face for the first year. 

“But thanks to all of you here, I am owning something that seemed so out of grasp just two years ago.”

Mac, who has amassed a staggering 13.6 million followers on TikTok, said he owed his success to that one question. 

“Now I don’t like to get sappy, but seriously, one question changed my life forever,” he said.

“I was just a regular dude with no editing or filming experience and within two years I was shooting videos with the president”. 

Mac was invited by to interview President Joe Biden in September last year at the Detroit Auto Show.

The video was part of a collaboration between Mac and the US Administration to promote EVs and it was watched more than 37 million times. 

In the video, President Biden said a move toward electric vehicles was a priority of his.

Mac went on to thank his followers for their support and urge them to take risks to make their own dreams come true.

“Take that risk, even if it’s something as simple as just asking someone what they do for a living,” he said.

Daniel Mac has even stopped Supercar Blondie’s very own Alex Hirschi on the road.
