Social media influencers are rich, or at least they try to appear so, and one ornament involved in that kind of career path is a luxury car, to complete the look. That’s probably why a Georgia-based influencer decided to livestream her luxury car shopping; only, her viewers and the car salesman were disappointed after her 2-hour test drive yielded no luxury car purchase.
21-year-old Booklyn Frost from Atlanta, Georgia, aka Brooklyn Nicole, is the influencer in question. Recently, Brooklyn Frost went to a car dealership full of Mercedes-Benz and Porsche cars to shop around. In the livestream, watched by more than 600 of her followers, Brooklyn Frost test drove for around two hours before ultimately telling the car salesman that she’s “gonna go home, and think on it.”
“I don’t think Mercedes is exactly what I want. I’m thinking about Porsche as well and stuff, so yeah,” added the influencer. Brooklyn Frost did ask for the car salesman’s name, implying that she’ll come back, but at that moment, her chat started criticizing her, accusing her of wasting the car salesman’s time. While test drives are part of their job, two hours is a pretty significant window of missed potential sales because of Brooklyn Frost.
A person in Brooklyn Frost’s chat even mentioned that the car salesman, Trent, had already introduced himself numerous times during the test drive, and the influencer still couldn’t remember his name. Brooklyn Frost, however, clapped back at her chat, “Chat, I’m not window shopping. Ya’ll want me to just get the [expletive] car that I first looked at. It’s like getting an apartment… Are ya’ll crazy? I’m not about to just buy a car because my chat says ‘buy a car.'”
People online are torn on the influencer’s mindset
Reactions, typically from Brooklyn Frost’s actual chat during the incident, range from finding her decision hilarious to outright insulting her; one person even insinuated that the influencer is not at “that level” yet, especially with only 600 subs watching her. “Girl just get something you can afford,” quips one commenter on the chatbox.
Others have pointed out just how much Trent, the car salesman, was holding back his frustration or disappointment with Brooklyn Frost, “He just tryin to sell [expletive] he mad” with another saying “Trend ready to crash out.” One commenter also reminded Brooklyn that “This is the 4th time looking at the same cars.”
Outside of her Twitch chat, Brooklyn Frost’s decision was also met with some mockery. “With 600 subs maybe should be at a Honda dealer” claims an X user. Still, some have defended Brooklyn Frost, “Lmao clearly don’t know Brooklyn she got money and her brother make hella money,” with another stating that she was wise to bide her time, “No one just buys a car, when they have other cars that they would like to see. If I’m planning to spend 6 figures on a car, I’m looking at everything and everywhere before I make that purchase.”
