Why it worked
This video works because it visually demonstrates a significant transformation of a common product (a car), appealing to viewers interested in upgrades and customization. The rapid cuts between different modified parts, coupled with the price overlay, create a strong sense of value and a desire for similar enhancements. The clear before-and-after implied by showing the parts being installed and then the finished product is highly engaging. The voiceover provides context and highlights the features, while the on-screen text reinforces the cost, making it transparent and aspirational.
