The 2000s in Music

The 2000s saw the hypercar arms race begin in earnest, with the Bugatti Veyron shattering the 250 mph barrier and redefining what was possible in a road car. The Porsche Carrera GT, Ferrari Enzo, and Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren competed for supremacy at the top, while the hot hatch segment flourished with cars like the Golf GTI Mk5 and Focus RS. YouTube launched in 2005 and transformed automotive media overnight — suddenly anyone with a camera could share a review, a track day, or a cold start, and channels like Top Gear became global phenomena. Many early automotive YouTube uploads have since been deleted or lost to platform changes, making surviving footage from this transitional era increasingly valuable.
