1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,520
There was multiple typhoons and 
cyclones. 

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:04,440
Wow. 
There's a whole weather front 

3
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:10,000
coming in. 
This week on that car show, 

4
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,880
Danny P is back and he's on 
fire. 

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,680
I drive a very special Porsche 
9/11 R and an even more special 

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:22,000
Alcoholics GTA R Lindsay gets 
behind the wheel of both the new

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,320
Toyota Land Cruiser and it's 
upscale sibling, the Lexus 

8
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,560
GX550. 
And Dan writes A heavily edited 

9
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:33,000
magazine article and takes a 
Spyder Rs to Radwood plus the 

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,520
$1,000,000 Ferrari Luche. 
Our thoughts on that Ducktail, 

11
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,960
the GT3. 
We share our That Car Show Car 

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,560
Week auction preview and we 
revisit a little segment we call

13
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,200
if we Ran Porsche. 
This is a fun one. 

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,640
The gang is all here and it's 
that car show. 

15
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,000
So welcome to this week's That 
Car show. 

16
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,360
And in a week where one car 
manufacturer lost 60% of its 

17
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:05,080
share value because of potential
bankruptcy, where Porsche were 

18
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,880
down 21% year on year in car 
sales and Polestar have had to 

19
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:15,200
issue a fire sale, it's our job 
to bring a ray of sunshine to 

20
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,520
everyone's everyone's lives. 
So it's not quite as bad as it 

21
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,320
kind of I doubt to be, but how 
are we doing guys? 

22
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:24,600
So happy to see you both and 
happy to be here. 

23
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,640
How about you guys? 
How about them cars? 

24
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,040
Right. 
Look at them here. 

25
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,080
Good news. 
Support you, Larry, is that 

26
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,360
they're actually up 19 percent 
on 9 elevens. 

27
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,640
You're on you. 
So it's not all, you know, 

28
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,800
whatever the right word is, it's
not all doom and gloom. 

29
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:43,840
It's not all take hands and 
loose A's. 

30
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,920
Yeah. 
What have we been up to? 

31
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,600
Maybe I'll start because it's 
been a while. 

32
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,320
Yes. 
I went to Radwood, Radwood in 

33
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,840
the Pacific Northwest. 
So I don't know if you guys, you

34
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,600
guys are familiar, right? 
This is the 80s and 90s event 

35
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,880
that is owned now by Haggerty. 
Yeah, right. 

36
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:08,160
Friend of the show Art runs it 
and it was at Griot's Garage 

37
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,760
which is down in Tacoma. 
My good friend Jeff Jones picked

38
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,800
me up in his Spider Rs and we 
created. 

39
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,880
That car, by the way, that's 
like, that's a very good example

40
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:22,200
of a Spider Rs Jeff, so. 
Why, it's even more so. 

41
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:23,840
He probably should kill me for 
saying this. 

42
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:29,240
So he's upgraded to stereo, he's
got a new exhaust coming, and 

43
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,720
then maybe something soon 
happening to the cosmetics of 

44
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:32,960
the car, but I won't give too 
much. 

45
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,120
Away. 
OK, so watch this space, Yeah, 

46
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,120
for Jeff's updates. 
Huh. 

47
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,000
Yeah, it's becoming coming the 
most loved spinner Iris there 

48
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,040
is, I think on the market. 
But yeah, he's got some smart 

49
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,840
ideas for cosmetics. 
Taking a note out of the STS 

50
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,440
book, but I won't give any more 
away because that's now that 

51
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:52,720
car. 
I don't know if you guys have 

52
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,600
been in that car, but it has the
air intakes by your ears. 

53
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,200
So either side of the the engine
gets fed with air right by your 

54
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,120
right ear of your passenger or 
your left ear if you're if 

55
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,680
you're the driver and it makes 
some great noises. 

56
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:13,040
So, so it was fun cruising down 
in that right. 

57
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,760
There was no parking because it 
was all all full for 80s and 

58
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,680
90s. 
So we had to like do a bit of a 

59
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,360
shortcut and, and find some 
parking. 

60
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,800
What sort of stuff would you 
expect to see at 80s and 90s? 

61
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,040
And I'll let you know if it was 
there. 

62
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:34,640
Deloreans. 30M Threes. 
Yes, lots of E30M threes. 

63
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,760
And what's the what are the M5 
of that era? 

64
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,920
I don't know the 28 E 28. 
There you go. 

65
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,560
E 28. 
Yes, there was E 28. 

66
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,760
I don't think I even know what a
did you say Riata or Miata? 

67
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,760
Yeah, the Buick Riata, when I 
went the first time to Rabbit, 

68
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,880
there were like 4 of them. 
And I mean, that must be a a 

69
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,760
huge percentage of the Riata's 
still on the road. 

70
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,200
Surviving, yeah. 
I'm impressed all these years 

71
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,200
later. 
Yeah, I wouldn't know whether 

72
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,120
I'd recognise 1, that's 
probably. 

73
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,400
The US only car, yeah. 
Yeah, there was, and I don't 

74
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,440
think I've ever seen one in 
North America. 

75
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,200
Do you guys know what the 
Vauxhall Calibra is? 

76
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,800
I don't know if I know model. 
I feel like I've seen them, but 

77
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,079
I might not have realized that's
what it was called. 

78
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,400
So this was, if you know the 
Cavalier, the Vauxhall Cavalier,

79
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,880
you may know this was the 2 door
coupe version and at the time it

80
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:31,240
had one of the most coefficient 
drags of any car and it was one 

81
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,440
of those. 
But that's amazing. 

82
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,880
The one that really stole the 
show for me. 

83
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,960
Winner of the show. 
You can't go wrong with a white 

84
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,600
Testorosa, can you? 
That's like. 

85
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,280
No way. 
That's amazing. 

86
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:45,800
I mean, that is the definition 
of Radwood, isn't it? 

87
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:49,400
Right, right. 
So that was that was my winner. 

88
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,560
2nd place, very close, was a 
yellow SAP 900 convertible 

89
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,320
turbo. 
Oh yeah. 

90
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,320
That's those two cars really sum
up an era, sort of the beginning

91
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,080
and the end, right of of that, 
you know, place and time. 

92
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,760
So. 
Yeah, now I know. 

93
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,480
So I have been to Radwood in San
Pedro. 

94
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,840
I haven't made it to the Pacific
Northwest 1 yet. 

95
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,480
They always have an SUV section.
Were there any of those at this 

96
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,640
one? 
There there was. 

97
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,680
I wouldn't say it was a 
dedicated section for SUV's. 

98
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,280
There was a section for the 
GMC's. 

99
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,720
So they made the Cyclone and 
what was the other one they 

100
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:28,880
made? 
The typhoon. 

101
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,480
Typhoon there were there was 
multiple typhoons and cyclones. 

102
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,400
Wow. 
There's a whole weather front 

103
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,160
coming in at that point. 
Batten down the hatches, guys. 

104
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,960
Red was in. 
Before I. 

105
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,640
I don't think I've ever seen so 
many in one place, and I think 

106
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,680
there was like 6. 
Yeah, yeah. 

107
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,720
Again, I would imagine that's 
like a good percentage of the 

108
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,800
ones that are left. 
Right. 

109
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,480
Especially in the Pacific 
Northwest, you know. 

110
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,200
Yeah, yeah, that's pretty wild. 
That's cool. 

111
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:59,360
Were there any like Land 
Cruisers or Broncos or? 

112
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,440
It was a Broncosu. 
Cheaper. 

113
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,640
I saw a Bronco and I don't think
I saw any Land Cruisers or you. 

114
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:07,560
Know. 
It's weird because you get 

115
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,000
selected. 
They didn't make it the event, 

116
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,480
sorry. 
Yeah, they were camping by the 

117
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:12,120
side of the road. 
What? 

118
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:17,400
Was I thinking of in LA that I 
think there was a sidekick like 

119
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,200
a? 
Suzuki Sidekick. 

120
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,560
Suzuki Sidekick. 
Thank you. 

121
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,840
That's a car that was 
everywhere. 

122
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:25,320
Like I don't know when I was in 
high school, right? 

123
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,280
And it's been years since I've 
seen one so. 

124
00:06:28,280 --> 00:06:31,240
They had one at the event in LA 
and it was like it was such a 

125
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,120
blast from the past. 
Yeah, yeah. 

126
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,120
It's funny, I think you look for
the cars you want to see, right?

127
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,760
So there was probably like all 
the cars you've mentioned were 

128
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,280
probably. 
They just didn't register, Yeah.

129
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,760
Yeah. 
So that was a fun morning, 

130
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,400
Saturday morning. 
And then we went on to the 

131
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,160
Lemay, which is the the Car 
Museum, and they had a German 

132
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,560
event on. 
Oh, how was that? 

133
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,520
So it, it was good. 
Lots of porches, as you'd 

134
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,480
imagine. 
It was interesting. 

135
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,880
I don't think, I think I saw 2 
Mercedes in a field full of 

136
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,320
cars. 
Kidding. 

137
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,240
I just, it's, it was just, you 
know, people just don't have the

138
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,120
Mercedes up here. 
Yeah. 

139
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:10,400
It's. 
Interesting. 

140
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:15,680
Why do you think that is? 
I mean, Pacific Northwest is 

141
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,560
dominated by Porsches especially
because obviously a lot of them 

142
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,000
are a wheel drive, but like lots
of M twos. 

143
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,920
If you guys know far the 
flywheel, Justin, he was there 

144
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,480
with his Rs 6. 
So there were two Audis as well.

145
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,920
So not many Audis. 
They were in the minority. 

146
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,280
The others were all in for 
timing belt service. 

147
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,320
There we go. 
There we go. 

148
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,240
But yeah, it was good to see 
some folks that I hadn't seen 

149
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,360
for a while. 
And yeah, so that was a good, a 

150
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,320
good Saturday morning, a good 
way to kick off. 

151
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,680
Yeah, it was. 
It was good fun. 

152
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,600
So how about yourselves, Ryan? 
I think you've been driving some

153
00:07:54,600 --> 00:08:00,600
more rarefied cars, haven't you?
I've been yeah. 

154
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:05,880
Our friend Tom Horan let me 
drive his new 9/11 R, which is 

155
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,480
sadly already moving on. 
But. 

156
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,040
But before it does. 
Incredible coming yeah, in its 

157
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,400
place. 
But so this is a really special 

158
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,960
example, you know, you know, the
9/11 R this was the car that 

159
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,600
Porsche came out was supposed to
be the last manual Porsche, 

160
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,360
right? 
And it was basically the GT3RS 

161
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:31,080
engine of from what 20/14/2015 
and effectively a GT3 touring 

162
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,679
body before there was such a 
thing, you know, as the touring 

163
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,360
that came along with the dot 
twos. 

164
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:40,760
Many of these cars were were 
white with red stripes or green 

165
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,039
stripes and a lot of silver 
cars. 

166
00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:47,200
This was a really special car, 
not metallic black with black 

167
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,200
stripes. 
And this amazing, I'm going to 

168
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,000
forget the name of the the 
color, but a dark brown interior

169
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,120
with with Papita inserts, just 
spectacular. 

170
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,720
I don't know, but you guys in 
the 9/11 R was never really a 

171
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,720
car on my radar. 
It I just didn't understand what

172
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,480
people went on and on about this
thing, right, Especially after 

173
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,400
the the the .2 touring came out.
Well, I'm here to tell you that 

174
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,840
it is a very special thing. 
People seem to fall in one or 

175
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,120
two camps. 
People who have driven it 

176
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,080
either, yeah, it's kind of like 
a Touring, but a lot more 

177
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,240
expensive or Oh yeah, that's the
greatest thing I've ever driven.

178
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,280
And I'm I'm kind of in that 
second camp. 

179
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,520
There's something about it, you 
know, 500 horsepower. 

180
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,400
It's that that Rs engine. 
It's, you know, it's a manual, 

181
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,000
obviously. 
And it's got this, this really 

182
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,200
light flywheel that just gives 
the car completely different 

183
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,760
character. 
So you do get that rattle at 

184
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,160
idle. 
It was just it it it it felt 

185
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,640
like 600 horsepower, right? 
It just it it felt that much 

186
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,040
stronger even than 500 
horsepower. 

187
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,240
Beautiful thing People who know 
know. 

188
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,480
I don't know if it's worth what 
they're trading for, especially 

189
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,320
in a spec like this right, which
is quite a bit more expensive 

190
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,360
than your typical white and 
silver cars, but just a 

191
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,840
fantastic experience. 
It's just, I, I swear that that 

192
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,000
model, maybe because it was hand
built in the way that the others

193
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,440
weren't, like this was going to 
be the swan song for Porsche's 

194
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,680
manual. 
That thing is like a vault, even

195
00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:11,120
in a way that other Porsches 
aren't. 

196
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,280
Just just perfect shifting. 
You know, the, the the engine 

197
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,040
was strong, great ride, great 
sound, just a wonderful, 

198
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,400
wonderful thing. 
Yeah, I'm a fan. 9/11 R Drive 

199
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,560
one if you get a chance 'cause 
they're really wonderful. 

200
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,240
Thank heaven for friends who are
generous with their keys, right?

201
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:33,640
I I know, I know. 
Yeah, yeah, pretty incredible. 

202
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,600
If I could afford one, I would 
buy one. 

203
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,800
But last I cannot so. 
So thank you so much. 

204
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,960
Just it's our friend Tom. 
Absolutely. 

205
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,520
And then you get in, you know, 
yeah, versus the the touring, 

206
00:10:45,560 --> 00:10:48,440
you know, is it worth, you know,
twice as much or whatever? 

207
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,720
I, I, I don't know. 
But it does have its own 

208
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,720
character. 
The the touring is wonderful, 

209
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,600
but there's something special 
about the the 9 elevener. 

210
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:56,920
I guess you get what you pay 
for, right. 

211
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,920
And, and the market sort of 
figures itself out, yeah. 

212
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,440
You know, some of the stuff is 
they're intangibles, right? 

213
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,040
But but they're still worth 
something. 

214
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,000
And you know, any, any modern 
Porsche really, right? 

215
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,520
They're all pretty great, 
especially with the, the GT 

216
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,000
cars, right? 
It's just, you know, you're 

217
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,520
starting to, you know, the, the 
decreasing returns, right? 

218
00:11:15,560 --> 00:11:20,280
I mean, once you once you get up
there, but yeah, this was really

219
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,600
wonderful. 
One of the best cars I think 

220
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,760
I've I've driven in recent, 
recent time for sure. 

221
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,920
So. 
You've gotten to drive some 

222
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,720
pretty fun stuff lately. 
So that's that's really saying 

223
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,000
something that this has sort of 
gotten under your skin the way 

224
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,840
it sounds like it did well. 
I'm going to tell you secret. 

225
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,480
I drove that car after I drove 
the Alphaholics GTAR. 

226
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,240
Now I've got a piece in Avantz 
magazine that's coming out in 

227
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,880
September, feature on the 
Alphaholics car. 

228
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,760
I've driven this before. 
It's a wonderful thing. 

229
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,960
Probably priced kind of in the 
same, you know, range as well, 

230
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,520
but couldn't be a more different
car. 

231
00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,400
It's awesome. 
It's special. 

232
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,840
I talk about in the article how 
it's like the 4th or 5th car for

233
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,360
someone who's owned everything 
right when you really kind of 

234
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,480
get into the weeds with new 
stuff, new flavours. 

235
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,320
But but it was that 911 hour 
that I I really kind of fell in 

236
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,080
love with. 
So don't tell Tom. 

237
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,560
But yeah, they're historically 
significant because they paid 

238
00:12:15,560 --> 00:12:19,000
for the development work for the
Duty 3 Touring. 

239
00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:22,160
I didn't know that. 
So, so yeah. 

240
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:26,680
So they were a premium so they 
could they could justify and get

241
00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:29,040
the money into the program for 
the GT3 Touring. 

242
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,360
So you know, when you look at 
historically buying these cars 

243
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,480
at auction, etcetera, it has a 
story to tell as well, which is 

244
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,680
interesting. 
That's pretty cool. 

245
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,800
But it's a similar price to the 
St. isn't it? 

246
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,800
So. 
Well, and it's kind of the same 

247
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,960
in the same spirit, right? 
You know that Rs engine, right? 

248
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,320
It just got that little extra 
Zing right then then you know 

249
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,560
the standard one. 
And so I've not driven the St. 

250
00:12:54,560 --> 00:12:57,320
have either of you, I mean we 
need to make this happen if. 

251
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,080
Not no, we do. 
Not I imagine that thing's also 

252
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,400
pretty wonderful. 
So. 

253
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,560
Yeah, that's the recipe right 
there. 

254
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,880
Rs engine, no wing, manual 
transmission. 

255
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,880
Jobs are good as we would say. 
I got a question for you guys. 

256
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:17,160
What is right now the most 
popular in terms of demand new 

257
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,520
car on the market? 
So I was watching some YouTube 

258
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,120
algorithm and it showed me a top
ten list of all the cars that 

259
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,560
are currently like they, they 
measure it in terms of days 

260
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:31,120
availability. 
And this has less than two weeks

261
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,160
to talk across the US. 
Can you guess What Car it is at 

262
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:39,240
#1 and there's a link here. 
It's Japanese. 

263
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,880
It's 4 by 4. 
Lexus GX550. 

264
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:46,240
It's not. 
It's the Land Cruiser. 

265
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:52,400
So they sell approximately 7000 
Land Cruisers a month at the 

266
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,360
moment. 
And at the moment in stock 

267
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,840
across the US there is less than
2000 available. 

268
00:13:58,680 --> 00:14:01,600
So you, Lindsay, drove one the 
other week and you were raving 

269
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,920
about it. 
And everybody agrees. 

270
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,520
Yeah, but the Land Cruiser has 
an older, more grown up brother,

271
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,400
doesn't it, in the Lexus family?
And I think you've just got your

272
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,120
hands on one of those, Lindsay. 
I did. 

273
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,200
That was the GX550, and it's 
funny that you say that because 

274
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:23,600
I was just talking to a friend 
who said they had been on the, I

275
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,680
think it was the Toyota lot. 
Maybe they thought it was Lexus,

276
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,600
whatever it was, they were 
saying this, but I didn't have 

277
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,160
enough details. 
But yeah, they were told by the 

278
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,240
dealer that they can't keep them
on the lot and they can't even 

279
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:40,480
get them when they do so. 
Yeah, so I had the GX550, which 

280
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:44,320
is the Lexus version of the 
current Land Cruiser, which 

281
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,880
outside the US is the Prado. 
And I had the Overtrail edition,

282
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,600
which is the more off road 
outfitted. 

283
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:57,240
It comes with tougher, you know,
running boards, higher 

284
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:03,400
suspension, knobby tires. 
And it was, I did end up getting

285
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,520
to take this one off road. 
That was my wandering route with

286
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,120
the Land Cruiser that I did not 
have time to take it off road. 

287
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:13,920
And it was really interesting 
going into that car because when

288
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,360
I drove the Land Cruiser I was 
raving about it. 

289
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,840
My whole family fell in love 
with it. 

290
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,600
I was like, I could absolutely 
drive one of these everyday. 

291
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,400
It fit my life very well. 
Super usable, lovely. 

292
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,600
All of this. 
Everyone kept telling me that 

293
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,880
week, wait to drive the Lexus. 
Wait to drive the Lexus. 

294
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,400
I think I told you that. 
You did too, Yeah. 

295
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,200
And because the only thing that 
I noted about the Land Cruiser 

296
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,520
that I would change is a 
slightly bigger engine, because 

297
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,160
you do hear the engine noise and
it's not. 

298
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:49,040
Like 4 cylinder turbo versus. 
Cylinder, right, So you know, my

299
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,200
my like ideal dream spec would 
be the Land Cruiser with the 

300
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,600
engine that's only available in 
the Lexus, the V6. 

301
00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,320
So I got into the Lexus thinking
like all will be solved, and I 

302
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,720
was surprised how much you still
do here. 

303
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:08,000
The engine, given what everybody
had sort of set me up to expect.

304
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,120
But and so it was interesting 
because it it didn't feel like 

305
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,720
it was enough of a difference 
given the price increase where, 

306
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,400
you know, maybe you go get one 
that's a couple years old, Let 

307
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,800
somebody else take the hit if 
you really want the Lexus. 

308
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,720
But it felt similar enough to 
the Land Cruiser that I think 

309
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,840
you could get the Land Cruiser 
and be very happy with it. 

310
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,960
But I will say we did have a 
chance to take the Lexus off 

311
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,160
road and it totally transformed 
how we were feeling about the 

312
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,040
car. 
It was super fun. 

313
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:43,400
And the funniest part was we had
gone up a trail. 

314
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,880
We were out in Riverside and 
took a trail there that we 

315
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,720
thought would go all the way 
through into Orange County and 

316
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,000
basically put us like not far 
from where we want to end up. 

317
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,200
But it was closed because of the
fire danger because it's been so

318
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,760
hot here. 
So we hit the gate, you know, 

319
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,640
closing the trail and went to 
turn around. 

320
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,760
The only other car that we saw 
on the trail that day and we 

321
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,920
were out there for a bit was 
another Lexus GX550. 

322
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:07,839
Really. 
Oh, really? 

323
00:17:07,839 --> 00:17:10,200
It was. 
And it, we were just like we had

324
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,200
the best time. 
The other driver got out, we got

325
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,119
to meet them and chatted a 
little bit and I told him about 

326
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,680
the show and so he. 
Had the. 

327
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,599
Exactly. 
So he had the premium edition 

328
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,280
with off road tires. 
So I think it would be 

329
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,800
interesting to see how that 
feels like for daily use because

330
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,840
I think that might be the sweet 
spot. 

331
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,840
If you want the Lexus, get the 
premium one and like maybe put a

332
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,080
little bit of the off road stuff
on it. 

333
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,920
Because when you think about it,
unless you were buying it and 

334
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,400
you're going to be off roading 
regularly, which I would venture

335
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,840
to say most of us are not, the 
premium is probably going to be 

336
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,920
a better experience day-to-day. 
And it's still super capable off

337
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,600
road. 
So yeah, I think it's, I think 

338
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,480
it's a great option. 
It was interesting in the Land 

339
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,680
Cruiser, I had an adult and two 
kids in the back seat and in the

340
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,760
Lexus it just worked out that I 
had two adults and a child in 

341
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,080
the back seat and it was a 
little tighter. 

342
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:14,920
Obviously everybody was bigger, 
you know, in the first scenario,

343
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,000
everybody was like, this is 
fantastic, plenty of room. 

344
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:21,360
So it just depends on who you're
carting around and what your 

345
00:18:21,360 --> 00:18:27,040
lifestyle is, I think you know. 
Let me ask you, I think because 

346
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,960
so I I'm in Denver, obviously, 
so I'm at altitude and I drove 

347
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,240
both of these these trucks in 
the mountains. 

348
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:38,160
So, you know, I'm at 5280 or 
whatever here at my house and we

349
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,880
were probably double that a lot 
of the time I was behind the 

350
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,080
wheel, both these cars and they,
you know, I know turbos go a 

351
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:48,200
long way in compensating for 
altitude, power loss, this kind 

352
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,840
of thing. 
But I think why I like the Lexus

353
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,160
even more, I think the 
distinction was even greater was

354
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,720
here that that larger 
displacement engine fill fills 

355
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,640
in some of the the gap right 
between before you get into the,

356
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,640
the turbo, right. 
That makes sense. 

357
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,240
I found the Toyota a little more
on off and, and if you're up to 

358
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,440
me, I'm probably buying the 
Toyota just because it's cheaper

359
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:08,720
and it's basically the same 
thing. 

360
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,160
And that kind of but, but there 
was something about that 6 

361
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,200
cylinder. 
I think we drive so few use 6 

362
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:17,200
cylinders anymore 2 everything's
a, you know, a 4 cylinder turbo 

363
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,040
that you know, just but again, 
you know, the the land, the Land

364
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,200
Cruiser is already pretty great.
That was that was just, you 

365
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,800
know, that extra 10%, right? 
So yeah, no, I mean, I great. 

366
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,200
Vehicles, and they're 
everywhere. 

367
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,200
I think you'd be lucky to have 
either 1. 

368
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,320
You know, my sister and her 
family, we're in Colorado and 

369
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,480
they did some off roading and 
she's, it was almost entirely 

370
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:46,320
new Land Cruisers and FJ's. 
And you know, like that was 

371
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,560
really fun to see, especially 
having experienced both of the 

372
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,800
Land Cruiser versions and 
knowing that you've done that. 

373
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,760
So I think I don't think you 
could go wrong with either one 

374
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,280
of them. 
I think it's a matter of sort of

375
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:02,520
fine tuning based on what you're
going to be using it for and 

376
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:07,600
then, you know, go from there. 
Do you recall that the stickers 

377
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,080
and on both of those the MSRP in
each of this? 

378
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,480
Yeah, that was the other thing 
that was surprising. 

379
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,040
So the Land Cruiser that I had, 
the sticker price was 70 and the

380
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,920
Lexus that I had was 77. 
So that was another thing where 

381
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:25,120
we were like, there's really not
like there wasn't a huge price 

382
00:20:25,120 --> 00:20:28,600
difference if you really wanted 
the Lexus badging, you know, 

383
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:29,760
like if that was important to 
you. 

384
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,680
Like it's very accessible if 
you're already into the Land 

385
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:37,560
Cruiser territory. 
But yeah, they so they were 

386
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,680
closer together. 
But I think obviously when you 

387
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,280
get into like the premium on the
Lexus, like the premium trim, it

388
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,040
gets closer to 90 I think. 
Wow. 

389
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:47,800
Yeah, yeah, that's a lot of 
money. 

390
00:20:48,360 --> 00:20:50,800
It is. 
So that's why I always say find 

391
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,560
whatever you want. 
Find one that's a couple years 

392
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:59,000
old with the CPO and it opens up
a lot more possibilities. 

393
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,840
Yeah, yeah. 
Good trucks. 

394
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,760
Well, it might be easier to buy 
the Lexus in the minute, right? 

395
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:10,280
Based on demand, yeah. 
Yeah, 6 month of the six months 

396
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,760
of those. 
They're like the Charger EV, 

397
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,200
Dan, right? 
Right, there we go. 

398
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:14,960
Wheeling dealing at the Lexus 
dealership. 

399
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,440
But it sounds like the Toyota 
guys are actually putting Adms 

400
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,760
and and all that malarkey and 
just can't believe we're back 

401
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,280
to, you know, dealer fitted 
accessories. 

402
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,360
Like, you know, I didn't want 
the fluffy dice, but I paid to 

403
00:21:28,360 --> 00:21:31,160
have it put in the. 
But the undercoating, that's 

404
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,080
where it's at. 
I mean, you know, it's worth it 

405
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:33,280
all. 
Day. 

406
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,840
Oh man yeah, if you get the 
premium undercoating they stand 

407
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,640
on one leg while they spray it 
on. 2 layers. 

408
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,160
Dealers say, what else have you 
been driving, Lindsay? 

409
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,880
Have you you've had any other 
cars? 

410
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:52,520
I have So I had what might be my
favorite press car so far this 

411
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:57,800
year only because of the livery,
shall we say it was. 

412
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:02,400
So I had a new Bronco. 
It was a 4 door big bend with 

413
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,720
the four Wheeling graphics. 
And so it was the sunset stripes

414
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,480
and it just even sitting in the 
driveway, it made us smile. 

415
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,400
And I was talking to a neighbor 
and mentioned that I had this 

416
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,440
amazing Bronco and she's like, 
that's you. 

417
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,040
I've seen it driving around. 
I love it. 

418
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:22,760
It's so cute. 
And the day before it went back,

419
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:28,160
it was, you know, yeah, I, I 
would venture to say it is cute 

420
00:22:28,360 --> 00:22:31,000
and it is, it's just so 
cheerful. 

421
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:35,280
It's so happy. 
And it was, you know, I mean, I,

422
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,640
you guys have experienced this 
too. 

423
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:41,240
Like, obviously whatever you 
just stepped out of colors your 

424
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,760
experience even initially or 
like at least initially when you

425
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,480
go to the next thing. 
So I went from the Lexus to the 

426
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,920
Bronco and you know, we were 
talking about like engine noise 

427
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,800
or Rd. noise in the Land Cruiser
and the Lexus and the Bronco is 

428
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,960
a very different thing. 
And but it, I think we noticed 

429
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,680
the wind noise in the Bronco a 
lot more just because it was so 

430
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,640
different from the Lexus. 
But the solution is you just 

431
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,200
take the tops off and then 
you're expecting the wind noise 

432
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:13,640
and it's so much more fun. 
So it was great. 

433
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,800
Like we ended up taking it to 
the beach and cruise down, 

434
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:21,440
cruise down PCH in Huntington 
with the tops off and the 

435
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,400
windows down and it was like, it
does not get much better than 

436
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,480
being in the like sunset stripe 
Bronco on PCH. 

437
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,680
You know, like name a better 
scenario. 

438
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,400
I'll wait. 
I mean, that's in its element 

439
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:37,600
for sure. 
Yeah. 

440
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,920
Which engine was? 
It yeah, that is a good question

441
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,840
and I am blanking at the moment.
I will. 

442
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,120
So I think they do 2 two and a 
27. 

443
00:23:49,360 --> 00:23:52,480
I can. 
I can look it up if you guys 

444
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,840
want to chit chat about 
something else. 

445
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,400
I can tell you exactly. 
How it was. 

446
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,360
I just wondered what it was like
on the freeway, like whether it 

447
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:02,760
was nippy and. 
It was, yeah, because we did 

448
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,240
some, like, running around 
picking up car parts, you know, 

449
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,320
just like in LA and Orange 
County. 

450
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,720
It was great. 
Like, great pickup, the 

451
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,080
throttle, you know, we never 
turned the radio on. 

452
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,280
We're having too much fun just 
enjoying the car. 

453
00:24:20,360 --> 00:24:23,080
Yeah. 
We don't listen to the radio 

454
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,960
that much 'cause we're just we 
talk too much. 

455
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,280
No, I, I'm, I'm kind of with 
you. 

456
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,480
But in a vehicle like that, 
we're out cruising you. 

457
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,440
Know right like it had I thought
to turn the radio on, you know 

458
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,200
when we're going to the beach 
like that would have been I 

459
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,840
mean, like do some Beach Boys on
the radio but yeah even just 

460
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:46,040
around town it, it was great 
like super usable, comfortable. 

461
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:51,320
And that one is really special 
because the stitching inside, 

462
00:24:51,360 --> 00:24:55,000
you know so the stripes are like
it goes from red orange, yellow 

463
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,720
and there's like 5 or 6 
different shades in the 

464
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,600
gradient. 
So inside the stitching on the 

465
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,680
seats is red, orange and yellow.
And then the inserts on the 

466
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,840
seats mimics the stripes. 
And, you know, there's embossed 

467
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:11,480
horses and just all sorts of 
little fun touches that made it 

468
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,080
feel really fun. 
And it was like, if you want 

469
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,920
something that's going to lift 
your spirits, this is the car to

470
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:22,440
go get in that like, paint job 
package. 

471
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,320
So yeah, I will look up the 
engine. 

472
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,000
Nice. 
Walk amongst yourselves. 

473
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,280
Here we go. 
Well, while you're looking at 

474
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,240
the engine, so Ryan, you alluded
to it, but I think you've got 

475
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,000
two articles coming out. 
Yeah, in Advance and I will just

476
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,160
give a quick plug. 
I'm showing the latest version 

477
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,480
of Advance with the Curry GT and
yellow on the front. 

478
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,040
Yeah, because I've got an 
article in that one. 

479
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,080
And it's a very good article. 
That's kind of you to say. 

480
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,960
So it was heavily edited, but 
yeah. 

481
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,520
Stopped. 
Well, So what did you, what did 

482
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,720
you write about? 
I wrote about an off road 

483
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:02,800
experience last November when we
went to SEMA and took two days 

484
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:07,320
and went through the desert. 
And yes, I talked to Carl, who's

485
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,200
the editor in chief and said, 
hey, do you want the story for 

486
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,680
the the magazine? 
And he said, yeah, it's a 

487
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:13,920
different story. 
Would love that. 

488
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:18,840
So it's funny, like I, I, I sent
him the, the article probably 

489
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,880
January, February of this year. 
And it's taken, you know, that 

490
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,160
long 'cause you know, Karl does 
a great job of having themes for

491
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,960
each magazine episode and right,
you know, making sure that 

492
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,040
everything's curated and, but, 
but Ryan, you've got 2. 

493
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,680
So you not just one, but two. 
But they haven't come out yet. 

494
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:39,400
They maybe be really heavily, 
we'll see, but no. 

495
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,680
No, sorry. 
But go check out Dan's article 

496
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,760
because it really is great. 
The photography is great. 

497
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,960
And you know, as an author, you 
want to put the reader in your 

498
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,000
shoes and and I felt like the 
article really does that. 

499
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,520
It was an adventure. 
It was AI mean. 

500
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,240
It was a yeah, I don't know. 
It was he. 

501
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,160
Took us along with. 
It I wanted to be there, it was 

502
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,680
cool. 
I know and they share that Ivan,

503
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:00,760
who's the photographer. 
No. 

504
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:05,200
Well, and I realized they most 
that issue arrived at the house 

505
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,680
and I was flipping through it 
and I saw the title and I went, 

506
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,800
wait a minute, that sounds like 
what Dan did. 

507
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,480
And then I flipped to the 
article and realized it was your

508
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,400
article. 
Like we got. 

509
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,880
Guys, it's so cool that we're in
the circles we are because 

510
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,720
hardly a day goes by where I 
just don't run into a friend's 

511
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,760
article, whether it's the New 
York Times, whether it's a car 

512
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,160
magazine or car website, 
something like Avant's. 

513
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,080
It's just, and often times I 
don't catch it when I start 

514
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,840
reading it like this. 
This sounds kind of, you know, 

515
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,040
like someone I know. 
And then I go up, up, you know, 

516
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,840
back up and see the author and 
you know, it's, it's, it's 

517
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,200
pretty cool. 
It's pretty cool. 

518
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,000
And there's something about 
print too, right? 

519
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,520
To see your name in print, to 
see your piece in print, that's 

520
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,240
special. 
So plug. 

521
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,640
For a. 
Yeah, yeah. 

522
00:27:48,120 --> 00:27:51,440
And then this next issue with my
two articles is September 15th, 

523
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,040
I believe. 
So we'll, we'll, you know, we'll

524
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,040
look for that when it comes up. 
But one's on Bruce Meyer, which 

525
00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:00,560
I think we've talked about the 
others on Tom Horan's Alcoholics

526
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:04,320
gtar, which is a hell of a car. 
It's really, really pretty cool.

527
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,360
But much like your article, 
assisted in great part by 

528
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,560
wonderful photography. 
So can't wait, can't wait. 

529
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,400
Great opportunity. 
Avance Magazine is really, 

530
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,720
really on a. 
They do good stuff. 

531
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,360
On a great tear right now, so 
yeah. 

532
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,600
Well, they just had. 
Their. 

533
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,080
Classics on the green, Dan, did 
you get to go to that? 

534
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,120
I didn't know I was otherwise 
unavailable, but it looked very 

535
00:28:29,120 --> 00:28:31,880
good. 
It's, yeah, I got to go last 

536
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,040
year and it's just, it's such a 
lovely event. 

537
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:38,240
It's at the Chateau St. 
Michel winery in Woodinville, 

538
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,320
which is on the east side of the
greater Seattle area. 

539
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,480
And yeah, I mean, Chrissy and 
Adam, they just put together 

540
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,720
like such a cool collection of 
cars. 

541
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,640
You see some really unique stuff
and it's lovely because it's 

542
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,240
sort of like going to the Derby.
People dress up and they have 

543
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,760
sun hats and it's a very, you 
know, it's a more of a genteel 

544
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,360
cars and coffee. 
They would probably cringe at me

545
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,720
calling it a cars and coffee. 
So, cars and wine. 

546
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,200
I helped exhibit of that show a 
few years ago. 

547
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:13,520
Did you? 
And yeah, and I moved to car 

548
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,560
onto the lawn and moved it 
around car parks and stuff, so. 

549
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,920
In essence, I guess it's. 
Long enough now that they can 

550
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,280
talk about it. 
So there were three cars that 

551
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,000
were shipped up from LA. 
One was a Ferrari F41, was an EB

552
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,440
110 and one was a roof yellow 
Bird and. 

553
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,120
That's a trio, right? 
The keys were there and I was 

554
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:38,240
given the opportunity of one set
of keys out of the three. 

555
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,120
So. 
So what'd you go for? 

556
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,200
Very good mind. 
I'm 6 foot 2 and. 

557
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,840
All right, I'll tell you what 
I'm going for. 

558
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:47,520
And I don't know that I would 
fit. 

559
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,280
And this is a whole other 
discussion, right? 

560
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:54,600
But as crazy as this sounds, I'm
probably more likely to have an 

561
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,280
opportunity to drive a roof or 
an F40 before I would ever have 

562
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,400
another opportunity to drive an 
EB110. 

563
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,160
So EB 110 for me. 
Nice. 

564
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,760
And that's crazy. 
That was a well thought out 

565
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,840
well. 
But again, like, how lucky are 

566
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,240
we, right? 
I know. 

567
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,560
Which would you have picked? 
I would choose the F40. 

568
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,400
Interesting. 
So my decision was based on 

569
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,360
would I fit in the car and how 
many of them were made. 

570
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:29,080
And when you look at the F40I 
think there's over 2000. 

571
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:34,280
When you look at the EB110, I 
think it's around 500. 

572
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,120
It's definitely 6 figures. 
Sorry, three figures. 

573
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,760
My math's not good. 
Tonight there were 29 roof 

574
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:45,320
yellow birds and not all were 
yellow so I took the roof. 

575
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:47,680
Yeah, that was. 
That's the one I want to take 

576
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,520
home, don't get me wrong. 
Right, right. 

577
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,720
That's a very good car. 
And you're saying there's a 

578
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:59,440
higher likelihood of that? 
Well, now he's writing with 

579
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,080
Bruce. 
Maybe Bruce will lend him his 

580
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,960
his yellow bird #1. 
If you have an open spruce spot,

581
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,400
right? 
Yeah. 

582
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,200
Yeah, yeah, very good. 
Shall we talk about some rumours

583
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,320
and ideas that we've seen in the
press? 

584
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:13,880
Yes. 
Sir. 

585
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,240
Let's move on a little bit, 
right? 

586
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,800
Let's. 
Talk with Shall I quickly answer

587
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,640
the question so we can close the
loop on the bar? 

588
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,960
Oh, sorry, yeah no, you're good.
It was a 2.3 litre EcoBoost 

589
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,680
engine. 
OK, so that's the lower powered 

590
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:27,880
one. 
And you're saying it was still 

591
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,080
pretty? 
It was perfect, pretty nippy. 

592
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,360
Yeah, Yeah. 
Like no lag getting on the 

593
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:33,840
freeway. 
It was interesting because the 

594
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,120
throttle, you know, some 
throttles are heavier than 

595
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,200
others. 
This one was kind of middle of 

596
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,240
the road. 
It was solid, but not enough 

597
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,360
where you're like, OK, my leg's 
going to get tired on a road 

598
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,200
trip. 
No. 

599
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,760
So highly recommend. 
Yep. 

600
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,760
We do all right. 
I certainly do. 

601
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,160
So I was, I don't know if you 
guys have seen this in the 

602
00:31:56,160 --> 00:32:00,280
press, but Porsche is everyone 
uses the Nurburgring to test 

603
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,800
don't they? 
And some cars are more disguised

604
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,000
than others. 
But Porsche are a test driving 

605
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:10,520
and prototyping a GT3 with a 
duck tail on the back. 

606
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:18,200
So I wondered whether it could 
be the new Sport classic because

607
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,800
every generation they seemed to 
have a sport classic. 

608
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:26,480
The last generation was a turbo 
engines rear wheel drive manual 

609
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,560
car with a duck tail. 
But what else could it be? 

610
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,120
Did it have the double bubble 
roof by? 

611
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,480
Chance. 
I don't think it did. 

612
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,240
I'm still going with Sport 
Classic. 

613
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,240
I just, I mean, right, I think 
Mctell, you think Sport Classic 

614
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,480
so. 
It did have GT3 Touring written 

615
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,880
on the back, you know, on the 
engine Bay, but that, you know, 

616
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,320
they could put anything on it, 
right? 

617
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,880
Is that like a misdirection? 
Could be. 

618
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,240
It could be. 
I mean, Porsche have recently 

619
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,480
come out. 
The CEO has said that he intends

620
00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,640
to, you know, produce less cars 
but make more money on the cars 

621
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,000
they're producing, right? 
So maybe can we talk about that 

622
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,680
for just a second, I mean? 
Don't we all want to do a lot of

623
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,840
work? 
I mean the, the right, that's 

624
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:15,280
the dream, right? 
But, but you know, I, I, this is

625
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:20,280
when we need the new, I don't 
know, you call IT914924, 

626
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,920
whatever, right? 
More than ever, we need an 

627
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,840
accessible Porsche. 
Because even though those last 

628
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,640
718 Caymans, you know, even the 
base 4 cylinders, some of them 

629
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,080
were $90,000 before they stopped
making the 718. 

630
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:37,520
You know, that's way too much 
money for 95% of America, maybe 

631
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:41,040
more, right? 
We need a, we need an entry 

632
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,080
level Porsche. 
I think that's the direction we 

633
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,480
should be going, but. 
It would be good. 

634
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:46,720
We don't run Porsche. 
None of us are going to 

635
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,960
complain. 
Right, here's the question for 

636
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,440
you Ryan. 
Would you buy a hypothetically 

637
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,360
an Audi that was like Porsche 
designed Audi. 

638
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:02,760
So in the same way obviously the
Rs was Rs 2, they they put well.

639
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,400
This goes back to the, the, the 
like even earlier, I think, 

640
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,159
right. 
I mean, there was the Volkswagen

641
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:12,280
fox that was also the Audi fox. 
I mean, there was, and I think 

642
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,040
they made these mistakes before 
there was just too much, I don't

643
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,000
know, incestuous stuff going on 
with Porsche, Volkswagen and 

644
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,800
Audi. 
And I think, you know, it burned

645
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,159
them forever, right? 
So I don't know that they would 

646
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:24,719
ever do anything like that 
again. 

647
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,639
Dan, you know, like a like a 
you're talking about a basically

648
00:34:27,639 --> 00:34:30,159
a Porsche engineered Audi sports
car. 

649
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,400
Yeah, yeah, in the same way they
did it with the RS2, right? 

650
00:34:33,639 --> 00:34:37,000
Yeah, yeah. 
The wagon they worked with 

651
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,960
Mercedes on the was it the E500?
That's right. 

652
00:34:42,639 --> 00:34:48,520
So, you know, if they did a Audi
TT Porsche designed like, would 

653
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,159
that work to fill in that little
gap you're talking about? 

654
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,080
It's interesting because I want 
both of those cars very much. 

655
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:58,360
This is some of these things. 
Let me get. 

656
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:03,440
Both and then I will tell you. 
Yeah, I mean, just wonderful 

657
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,280
cars, right? 
Although I've not driven either 

658
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,080
one, you know, I have a couple 
friends here in Denver who do 

659
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,800
have 500ES or E500. 
So maybe the RS2 is a little 

660
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,000
tougher to come by anymore. 
But yeah, I don't know. 

661
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,960
It's, it's, it's, I think it 
would be all in the marketing, 

662
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,320
right? 
And it would have to be amazing,

663
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:22,560
right? 
It would have to look great. 

664
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,560
It would have to look great. 
It's that's a tough. 

665
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,920
One and drive great, right? 
Drive great, yeah. 

666
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:29,240
And. 
And. 

667
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,000
Ultimately. 
Yeah, like no excuses, right? 

668
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,920
No excuses. 
And the price point would have 

669
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:38,160
to be, yeah, first point would 
have to be like 60 or 70 grand, 

670
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,800
I would think, to make it make 
sense. 

671
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:46,800
Would it appeal to you Lindsay? 
Like the Porsche Designs TT. 

672
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,720
Knowing that it's. 
Engineering excellence. 

673
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,520
I think it's one of those things
that you would end up you're 

674
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,160
like in theory it's great, but 
in practice people kind of go 

675
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:04,040
like, I don't know. 
And it's not like obviously we 

676
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,320
know Porsche does amazing work. 
Anything Porsche design is going

677
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:12,080
to be great, you assume. 
But I think it's kind of one of 

678
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,560
those like Frankenstein monster 
things where you're like, it's 

679
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,920
too many things. 
Mishmash is kind of that's my 

680
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,560
gut reaction. 
But I mean if it really comes. 

681
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:27,240
Out people are going to take the
Audi badge off and put a a 

682
00:36:27,240 --> 00:36:30,440
Porsche badge. 
I think the the the alternative 

683
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,280
to that, though, is you have to 
go and find another brand, 

684
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,000
right, Because Porsche are not 
going to build that car that 

685
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,120
you're looking for. 
Ryan Yeah, I know. 

686
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,240
Not right now. 
OK, let me ask you this. 

687
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:44,280
Are you fans of this Nuvolari 
concept car that Audi's come out

688
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,320
with? 
Because that's a love it or hate

689
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,040
it proposition? 
Have you seen this thing? 

690
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,000
There's only 500 of them so but.
What about a mini one of those? 

691
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,480
A mini Nuvolari. 
Well, I think we've seen that 

692
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,760
already, haven't we? 
We've seen that in the the TT 

693
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,680
Electric. 
Yeah. 

694
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:05,320
I I don't know it, it's such a 
weird like, again, I think 

695
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,480
they'd have to get it just right
because anything short of just 

696
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,680
right and it's going to become 
the laughing stock, right? 

697
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,160
Yeah. 
Well, and I I think you hit the 

698
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:18,000
nail on the head, Ryan, like 
anything where you go well, it's

699
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,880
it's almost a something. 
And so I'm just going to switch 

700
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,080
the badges. 
I feel like you've lost before 

701
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,400
you even start. 
If people are like, well, it's 

702
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,640
close. 
It's like what a lot of people 

703
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,520
experience with like replicas 
versus the real thing where your

704
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:38,440
entire experience is people 
going like, well, but oh, is it 

705
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:39,840
real? 
And you have to say, oh, it's 

706
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,160
replica or whatever. 
I think it's one of the like 

707
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,640
where you go, oh, it's an 
accessible Porsche, but it's not

708
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,160
really. 
And so then you end up in this 

709
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:54,040
weird limbo like. 
Here's what I'm afraid it's 

710
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,480
going to happen. 
Porsche really will follow in 

711
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,680
the path of modern Ferrari, 
right? 

712
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:02,240
Where there's not much in that 
modern Ferrari, price be damned.

713
00:38:02,240 --> 00:38:04,400
There's not much in the modern 
Ferrari lineup that I really 

714
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,400
lust after. 
The stuff I lust after are 350 

715
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:11,480
fives and 340 eights and five 
50s and 57 fives and F 40s and 

716
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,960
that kind of thing. 
And I, I I'm just afraid that if

717
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,240
if Porsche follows, I think, I 
think Ferrari should be going 

718
00:38:19,240 --> 00:38:20,560
the other way. 
I think there should be a new 

719
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:21,920
Dino. 
We've talked about this before. 

720
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,480
Yeah, right. 
I I. 

721
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:27,680
It's not worth it. 
Money's out though, is it? 

722
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,840
I know, but that's so that's the
problem because. 

723
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,880
That's the business problem. 
I know, but it wasn't always 

724
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,240
like that, right? 
You know, I'm working on the 

725
00:38:35,240 --> 00:38:39,240
Colorado Grand car descriptions 
right now for the 2026 running 

726
00:38:39,240 --> 00:38:41,400
of the Grand. 
And by the way, with some 

727
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,120
wonderful cars, just amazing 
stuff. 

728
00:38:44,240 --> 00:38:45,800
Just amazing stuff. 
But one of the things I. 

729
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:49,800
Really love. 
I don't think anyone will get 

730
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:55,440
too mad if I say there are 4D 
types, Jaguar D types and 20 odd

731
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,240
some Ferraris. 
But what's cool is, you know, 

732
00:38:58,240 --> 00:39:00,400
some of these cars have a 
competition history when you 

733
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,520
talk about the D type, right? 
When you talk about, you know, 

734
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,280
something like a 250 GTO or 
whatever. 

735
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:08,760
And a lot of these people submit
photos of the era and some of 

736
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,040
the photos are like the car 
rolling out of the factory with 

737
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,680
all the engineers and they're 
like white coats and they're 

738
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,760
taking pictures and they're 
smoking cigars and cigarettes. 

739
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,640
And it's just like there's a 
vibe, right? 

740
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,080
There's just a vibe. 
And it's special. 

741
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,800
Some of the cars, you know, are 
photographed in competition. 

742
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:27,760
And there's again, there's just 
there's something analog, 

743
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,960
There's something real that, you
know, I know those days are are 

744
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,600
long gone, but it wasn't always 
about what it's about now. 

745
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,560
And I guess that's what turns me
off. 

746
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:40,040
It's just you meet someone like,
yeah, they're not for me. 

747
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,360
Right. 
And unfortunately, I, I feel 

748
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,560
that way about a lot of the 
stuff from Ferrari these days 

749
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,680
and increasingly the Porsche 
stuff, right when I saw that 

750
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:53,280
new, you know, 911 career T come
out with wheels that we're 

751
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,760
hideous, right. 
The new GT3 touring has some 

752
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,480
funky bits. 
I don't know if you've seen 

753
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,600
Harry's garage, Harry Metcalf 
driving the thing where you 

754
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,880
know, I, I don't need to have a 
badge that says lightweight 

755
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,520
right on the centre stack. 
I don't need a sticker in the 

756
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,520
window that tells me it's a 
manual transmission. 

757
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,680
That's just Is ghost the word? 
You. 

758
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:18,320
Know not a German word, but you 
know, it's just I, I think we're

759
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:19,600
just going in the wrong. 
Direction. 

760
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,960
Well, that was one of the 
complaints when the St. came 

761
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,720
out, right? 
Didn't it have a manual sticker 

762
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:27,160
in the window? 
And people were like, why do? 

763
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:28,840
Why would you do that? 
That's the first thing I'm 

764
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:30,920
taking off, Yeah. 
Yeah. 

765
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,440
Yeah. 
Is there a new car that you guys

766
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,600
lost after? 
Because for me there is one 

767
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,680
Ferrari new I lost off. 
But before we get to mine, is 

768
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:44,600
there a a brand new car that you
lost after for its looks? 

769
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:49,280
I mean it. 
Should be easy guys. 

770
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:50,440
This should be so. 
Easy. 

771
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,120
I know we have a special color 
pack on it, but. 

772
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,920
No, I was thinking I'm like, 
this is totally not the like 

773
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,160
type of car we've been talking 
about, but I mean, of course a 

774
00:41:02,240 --> 00:41:05,240
defender. 
Here we go, an Octa. 

775
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,480
Yeah, right. 
Yeah, yeah. 

776
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,600
That or AG Wagon, although I 
don't love the interiors, but I,

777
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,440
I think just as a thing, the G 
wagon's pretty wonderful. 

778
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,960
Yeah, you know, yeah. 
I mean, despite it all, I I'd 

779
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,640
still take a a GT3 or something 
but but yeah, you know what? 

780
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:26,800
I'd take a 9 and 1.2 touring 
before I take a 992.2 touring, 

781
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:28,800
so. 
You're like, I'll be generous 

782
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,680
and I will like. 
That old, like, are we at that 

783
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,240
point now where we just start 
buying like the old stuff right 

784
00:41:34,240 --> 00:41:37,400
Where I mean the the oldies 
stations on the radio play the 

785
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,720
music of our youth. 
It's no longer the 50s and 60s 

786
00:41:39,720 --> 00:41:41,880
stuff. 
It's, you know, the Gin Blossoms

787
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:43,960
this. 
Is where? 

788
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,320
We're here guys. 
The first time you hear your 

789
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,560
music on the Oldies station is 
one of those like Touchstone, 

790
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,600
where you're just like, this 
cannot be happening. 

791
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:53,360
They don't call it the oldies 
though. 

792
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,200
What do they call it? 
It's it's. 

793
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,400
Classic now or something. 
It's not classic rock. 

794
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:03,800
I'm clearly not in the same 
demographic as you 2 I the the 

795
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,880
Ferrari 12 cylinder convertible.
I just think that is one of the 

796
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,840
most beautiful cars ever made. 
You know, I would if I had the 

797
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,840
money, I would buy one tomorrow.
It's it's that beautiful. 

798
00:42:14,240 --> 00:42:16,400
I need to think a lot bigger is 
what I'm. 

799
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,360
Hearing it looks like a modern 
Daytona. 

800
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,960
Oh yeah, and I remember was it 
last year, the year before where

801
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:25,280
they were everywhere at car 
week, at least the coupe, right.

802
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:27,920
I don't know that it's 
beautiful, but it is it is cool.

803
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:28,400
It's. 
Cool. 

804
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,720
Yeah, that's a good choice, Dan.
Yeah. 

805
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,280
I need I need to think like a 
lottery winner rather than. 

806
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,560
AI mean you're going to need to 
be a lottery winner to put gas 

807
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:42,840
in an Octa. 
Yeah, it's easy to hate when it 

808
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,200
doesn't, when it's completely 
irrelevant, these choices, 

809
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:46,160
right? 
You know it's it's. 

810
00:42:47,720 --> 00:42:53,800
Yeah, no, it's so I have heard 
rumours that McLaren will be at 

811
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,720
the quail and they will be 
unveiling a limited edition 

812
00:42:56,720 --> 00:42:59,480
manual car. 
So following in the footsteps of

813
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,600
Ferrari that obviously have just
released a manual car. 

814
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:08,200
And if you think about it, car. 
Yeah, yeah, I mean, it's it's 

815
00:43:08,240 --> 00:43:09,960
technical. 
Well, you can stall it, right. 

816
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,040
So I'm I'm calling it. 
Manual that's. 

817
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:13,680
That's my definition of a 
manual. 

818
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,480
I can install it, yeah. 
And I will. 

819
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:21,840
Right. 
And if you remember the three 

820
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,840
McLaren, Ferrari and Aston 
Martin around the same sort of 

821
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:30,960
time, like all got together and 
produced these these topless 

822
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,840
cars, didn't they? 
There was the the Monza SP3 or 

823
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:38,600
SP2 or something. 
There was the Elva and Aston 

824
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,480
Martin had one. 
So it sounds like Ferrari were 

825
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,680
first out of the gates. 
It sounds like McLaren are going

826
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,360
to bring one to the the market. 
And I don't know if it counts 

827
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:50,680
but Aston Martin have got the 
Valor which is a a sold out 110 

828
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:55,280
builds manual car. 
Yeah, they're going to run out 

829
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:56,320
of V words. 
I'm just. 

830
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:58,880
Yeah. 
They're just going to start 

831
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:04,560
making them up. 
Yeah, it's didn't those, didn't 

832
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:08,000
those topless cars off, didn't 
they also also come without 

833
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,600
windshields, windscreens and. 
As I did. 

834
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,240
Some of them were refitted, 
right? 

835
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,480
You know, you couldn't give 
those things away at first. 

836
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:20,840
I wasn't, I mean. 
Car Week when the Monza was like

837
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,440
debuted and they had a whole 
bunch of them that were moving 

838
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:29,240
around on Moss kind of. 
And you know, to the uneducated 

839
00:44:29,240 --> 00:44:31,280
at the time, it was like, what 
is that? 

840
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,120
And why would you not want a 
windshield? 

841
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:36,560
Yeah. 
Goggles live and learn. 

842
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,200
You want to get that dirt around
your eyes when you take the, you

843
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:41,560
know, you roll to the club, 
right? 

844
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:43,920
The authenticity. 
They're goggles, right? 

845
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:44,640
Right. 
What's up? 

846
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,920
So we will watch this space to 
see whether the McLaren does 

847
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,800
come to the Quail. 
But if it does, you heard it 

848
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:51,320
here first. 
Yep. 

849
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:52,320
There you go. 
Yep. 

850
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,880
Yep, I think they will. 
I think 100% money's on that for

851
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,720
sure. 
So we will, we will see Morgan. 

852
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:03,800
So Morgan, the great British 
brand, is bringing their car to 

853
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:08,080
market in the US. 
They because of restrictions, 

854
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,840
they're not allowed to bring 
what I would call the full fat 

855
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,720
version, and they have to bring 
a smaller engine car. 

856
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,640
Who buys a Morgan? 
You mean besides Jerry Seinfeld?

857
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:22,560
Yeah. 
Does he have one? 

858
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,640
Yeah, he's a big Morgan 
enthusiast. 

859
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,000
Interesting. 
Our buddy Jason Meshnick, who 

860
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,440
who writes for Autoblog and 
other outlets, he had one in LA 

861
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,560
for a week, said it was the 
greatest car he's driven in 

862
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,040
forever. 
He said it was transformative. 

863
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,200
But I would put money that he 
had the bigger engine. 

864
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:44,160
I think he did. 
I think it was European, but I 

865
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,880
love, I love Morgan so much. 
You know, I mean, we've talked 

866
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,760
about this before, but I think 
it was last year's car. 

867
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,000
We were at Motor Lux and it 
started to sprinkle, you know, 

868
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,360
it started to rain and there was
a man out there wiping down a 

869
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,080
car. 
It was a Morgan and he was the 

870
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,160
CEO of Morgan. 
I mean, give me one other car 

871
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,440
brand, right, that that would 
ever, ever happened with, right?

872
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:04,120
So there's something just 
special. 

873
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,560
I would buy one. 
I really, I really would now. 

874
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:11,080
I think it's, that's a very like
location dependent device, 

875
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,360
right? 
I mean, I think if you lived in 

876
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,680
like Carmel or something 
beautiful, I don't know if 

877
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,640
Omaha, NE, it's going to have 
quite the same appeal, right? 

878
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,200
Well, or like in the mountains, 
like would you have one in 

879
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,960
Denver? 
You know, I've never driven 1 

880
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,400
and I think, you know, that's 
again, a probably a car that's 

881
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,960
1/3 or 1/4 or 1/5 car, right, 
Because is it the fastest thing?

882
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:36,240
No, I mean there's a you know, 
it's it's got its lane that 

883
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,800
right, It belongs in and you 
know, it's it's I don't know if 

884
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,520
that would ever be my go to 
sports car, but it it was just 

885
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:44,560
as a tour. 
I mean, wonderful, right? 

886
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,200
Right. 
Well. 

887
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,640
Percentage. 
If you had the ability to have, 

888
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:53,200
you know, a fleet like, that'd 
be a fun thing to have in the 

889
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,400
fleet you. 
Had six cars? 

890
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,400
Sure. 
What percentage do you think you

891
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,880
lose of performance being in in 
Denver? 

892
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,880
Like 2030% on a. 
Yeah, I forget what the 

893
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:05,960
algorithm is, right? 
It's always about the algorithm,

894
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:11,760
but I think it's something like 
is it 2 or 3% for every 1000 

895
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:13,800
feet you go up from sea level, 
right? 

896
00:47:14,720 --> 00:47:16,920
Maybe a little bit more. 
I think 2:00 to 3:00, two to 3%.

897
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,160
Some engineer out there will, 
will, will call me out on this. 

898
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,600
So, you know, maybe at home I 
don't notice it so much. 

899
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:26,800
A little bit, you know, I've 
driven my car or you know, the 

900
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,480
equivalent of my car, you know, 
an Angela's Crest and feels like

901
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,280
it's got an extra 50 or 100 
horsepower. 

902
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,600
But you know, with that smaller 
engine that would be that would 

903
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:36,760
that would be tough in the 
mountains. 

904
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,560
I think, you know, on the grand 
there are a lot of cars, you 

905
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,480
know, again, this is generally, 
you know, 1916 earlier cars, but

906
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:46,120
there are a lot of cars we just 
don't allow on because you know,

907
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,760
they've got to climb 14,000, you
know, foot passes or whatever it

908
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:51,480
is so. 
I mean, it's a real 

909
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,840
consideration. 
This is the same weight as a 

910
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:59,320
Miata and it's 255 horsepower. 
So I. 

911
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,520
Enough. 
I'm not convinced Denver is the 

912
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,280
right market for it. 
Probably not. 

913
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,520
No, no. 
So, Ryan, you'll just have to 

914
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,120
leave it at your Malibu house, 
which is fine, yeah. 

915
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:11,960
That's true. 
Yeah. 

916
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:17,520
I mean, you have, you know, you 
have the right tool for every 

917
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:21,400
job and that is a good fit there
and then you find some other 

918
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,360
stuff. 
But but there are people 

919
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,320
listening, and I know they are 
that have that at their. 

920
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,120
Disposal. 
Right, multiple homes with, you 

921
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,560
know, the the horse for the 
course or exactly right. 

922
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:33,560
And yeah, that would do the 
trick. 

923
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:35,840
And if there are people 
listening and interested there 

924
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:40,080
is a beta Configurator on the 
Morgan website. 

925
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,200
So I went and had a look and I 
think I put one extra on it and 

926
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:47,680
it was 100120K so. 
You said a a beater Configurator

927
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,520
or a beta Configurator. 
We would call it beta, but beta 

928
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,680
tomato. 
Tomato, whatever. 

929
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:55,880
They were still sorting out the 
ironing out the wrinkles or 

930
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:57,280
something. 
Yeah, no. 

931
00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,160
No. 
So it's not production fully 

932
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:04,320
right, but yeah, 120 K. 
So that's, you know, that's. 

933
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,600
I mean, that's a that's a 
Boxster 4.0, right? 

934
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,280
That's right. 
I mean, that's a or a spider. 

935
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:14,320
That's a yeah, you know what a 
Corvette ZR or not ZR1, but ZO6 

936
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,160
right. 
I mean, that's that's a. 

937
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:19,160
It's actually pretty accessible 
compared to like when you 

938
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,760
consider a lot of the stuff we 
talk about, that's much more 

939
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,600
accessible than I would have 
expected. 

940
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,680
Yeah. 
Yeah, so anyway, watch this 

941
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:32,120
space on that car. 
Week is shortly upon us and some

942
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:36,840
things are new such as last 
week's show, you know, changing 

943
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:39,080
of the guard and that was a 
great show. 

944
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:42,360
By the way, guys, if if you guys
haven't listened to it, who are 

945
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,200
listening today? 
There's a change in the guard at

946
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:49,200
Pebble Beach and I think we got 
an exclusive right. 

947
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:50,960
We do. 
I think so. 

948
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,520
I haven't seen them in any other
podcasts as as our friend Lynn 

949
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:55,320
Woodward would say, how about 
them apples? 

950
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:59,400
Right, so I imagine he'll start 
popping up on other shows now, 

951
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:00,920
but. 
I mean, they're going to notice 

952
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,840
that he was on our show. 
Yeah, he's awesome. 

953
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,440
He's like, he's like our age, 
you know, and he's like been 

954
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:10,720
handed the keys to this, this, 
you know, this thing, you know, 

955
00:50:10,720 --> 00:50:14,320
we know and love and we love, 
but he's the guy to do it. 

956
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:18,080
He's he's awesome. 
Check out on last week's show if

957
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,480
you haven't listened to it. 
It was a really great 

958
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,720
conversation and he was, yeah, 
he was super fun to record with.

959
00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:28,080
Yeah, new things at Car week, 
but there's also traditional 

960
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,040
things at car week. 
And one of the traditional 

961
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:34,280
things are the auctions. 
You know, it's, it's usually for

962
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,840
a lot of the, the auction 
houses, it's usually their top 

963
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:39,040
auction. 
So the 1:00 where they're going 

964
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,240
to make the most money, the one 
where records are going to be 

965
00:50:41,240 --> 00:50:43,960
broken, you know, it's a big 
deal. 

966
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,920
So we thought we would have a 
look at some of the highlights 

967
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:53,000
and maybe low lights of, of. 
So we've got a few picks of 

968
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:56,600
what's going on and, and 
generally speaking, if you've 

969
00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,160
not been to Carwick and you're 
going this year, you can get a 

970
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,000
pass to go look at these cars at
those auction houses. 

971
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,760
If you are credible enough to be
a bidder, then they'll let you 

972
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:07,680
in for free. 
If not, I think they they charge

973
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,440
a very small amount for you to 
go and have a look. 

974
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,760
So first up on the lot and I 
want you guys to keep your 

975
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:17,320
paddles down on this one. 
Don't worry, they wouldn't give 

976
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:21,160
me one, dear. 
RM Sotheby and I guess this is a

977
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:24,280
tradition for Ferrari, is that 
when they have a new model, they

978
00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,640
tend to do like chassis 0 for 
charity. 

979
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,120
I really hope that this sells 
because it's for charity. 

980
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:39,440
But it's the very first Ferrari 
Luche Yeah, this is so who who's

981
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:41,040
buying that? 
And I I've put in the comments, 

982
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:44,760
is it a rich person looking for 
a tax write off and wanting to 

983
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,680
save the planet? 
I. 

984
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:49,600
Mean I hope that person shows 
up. 

985
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,880
But there, there's 600,000 I 
think new, this one is a tailor 

986
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:59,400
made 1, so it's obviously 
bespoke, but like how much 

987
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,320
bespoke really is there going to
be in that car? 

988
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,600
And then they're advertising it 
for $1,000,000, yeah. 

989
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,120
What is it? 
A special colour? 

990
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,240
It's what's, what are we, what 
are we dealing with? 

991
00:52:08,240 --> 00:52:09,640
What are we working with? 
Oh, it's white. 

992
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:12,560
Worst. 
The worst color for Ferrari, 

993
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,680
generally speaking. 
That we Well, unless it's a 

994
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,240
testarossa Ryan. 
That's right, that's right. 

995
00:52:17,240 --> 00:52:20,640
That's how much cocaine is in 
the dorsals of this luche. 

996
00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:26,920
Not enough is the answer. 
Value add Yeah, I don't know. 

997
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:28,760
That's a tough one. 
I'm I'm sure someone will. 

998
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,040
I mean, you know, $1,000,000 is 
nothing to some so many of. 

999
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:35,280
You. 
Know there's a lot of yeah for 

1000
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,640
charity. 
Somebody you know, some 

1001
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:42,200
magnanimous individual will show
up and help. 

1002
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,000
Well, didn't think of 1,000,000 
bucks for some sort of Corvette 

1003
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,200
recently like maybe the 1st ZR1 
or something. 

1004
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:51,840
So maybe this isn't so far like 
the the gulf between sticker and

1005
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:53,960
Yeah and. 
Predictions. 

1006
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:58,040
Although I think on the the ZR1 
it's a slightly different story 

1007
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,560
because I think it's Mr. 
Hendricks and he collects 01 of 

1008
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,400
every GM car and he's got a big 
joke. 

1009
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:08,360
So, but it could be there could 
be a Mr. Hendricks for for 

1010
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:09,320
Ferrari, right? 
Yeah. 

1011
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,640
I. 
Mean it'll always be 000 or 

1012
00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:14,200
whatever so. 
Yeah, I mean, we won't, we won't

1013
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,640
kind of lament this point long 
term, but like. 

1014
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,600
But the new owner sure will. 
There we go. 

1015
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:24,320
I wonder if this is a car that 
history is going to be kind to. 

1016
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,400
So over the years, there's been 
various cars that just didn't 

1017
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,960
sell when you weren't well 
received. 

1018
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:35,920
You know, examples I can think 
of were the E30M3, the E36 

1019
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:40,760
lightweight, the LFA when it 
came out, they didn't sell, but 

1020
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,320
now there's there's a market for
it. 

1021
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,960
And, and I also think, and this 
is going to be most 

1022
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,280
controversial thing I've said 
all year, I think the Cyber 

1023
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,160
Truck at some point in the 
future will become a design 

1024
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:54,520
icon. 
I watched a Harry's Garage video

1025
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:56,440
with the Bitsarini. 
Did you guys see that one? 

1026
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,720
Yeah. 
So what interests me on this new

1027
00:53:59,720 --> 00:54:04,840
Bitsarini was it was designed by
Fabrizio Gagario of Ital Design.

1028
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:08,320
Very famous dry designer. 
He's designed all sorts. 

1029
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:15,120
I know that the guy who penned 
the Enzo, the Cyber Trek is his 

1030
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:17,800
favorite design and car. 
That's interesting. 

1031
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:24,120
So, yeah, so that's Ken Okiyama.
But Fabrizio turned up in a 

1032
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:27,480
cyber truck. 
So these famous designers are 

1033
00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,120
all buying cyber trucks. 
So we won't limit on this point 

1034
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:33,880
because it's, you know, we're 
not a big fan or I'm not a big 

1035
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:38,040
fan of that car, but. 
But your prediction is. 

1036
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,200
Funny. 
Classic. 

1037
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:43,720
It's funny you mentioned 2 
middle-aged men because you've 

1038
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:47,160
you've seen the meme going 
around the Internet right About 

1039
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,640
how? 
Have you ever seen a a a cyber 

1040
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:51,040
truck? 
A cyber truck pull into a 

1041
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:52,520
parking spot and a family gets 
out? 

1042
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,160
No, it's always 1 middle-aged. 
Man. 

1043
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,800
That's that's the target or 
that's that's who this thing is 

1044
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,200
resonating. 
It it it's it's non design, 

1045
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,200
right. 
What was that car you had at the

1046
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,640
Peterson Dan that that Demiro 
drove in one of his? 

1047
00:55:10,240 --> 00:55:13,640
The the low res. 
Yeah, the low res, I mean that 

1048
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:16,360
is this car as production 
vehicle. 

1049
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:17,440
Yeah. 
Right. 

1050
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:22,520
I, I, I guess I'd have to look 
at the numbers to see if they'd 

1051
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:24,480
ever actually be truly 
collectible, right. 

1052
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:26,960
I know they're, they're only, 
they've only made a fraction of 

1053
00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:30,320
what they were predicting, but 
that's. 

1054
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:31,240
Interesting. 
We'll revisit it. 

1055
00:55:31,240 --> 00:55:35,320
We'll put this this podcast in a
time capsule and revisit it in 

1056
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:40,520
20 years time and and and then 
we'll note that anyway, let's 

1057
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:43,600
move on to some cool cars 
because we've done it with the 

1058
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:44,680
electric stuff. 
Are you? 

1059
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:46,840
Saying the cyber truck isn't 
cool. 

1060
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:52,640
At the moment, in 20 years time,
it will be right McLaren F1 GTR 

1061
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:58,040
and this car is one of two short
tailed development prototypes. 

1062
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,680
RM again, having this car, I 
think it's going to be one of 

1063
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:06,480
the biggest hitters of the week.
They are quoting 35 million, but

1064
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:10,880
who knows? 
This car also belongs to Nick 

1065
00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:15,360
Mason of Pink Floyd, so it's got
all the pedigree, it's got the 

1066
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:21,760
famous owner, it's got the 
history. 35 million What are? 

1067
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:23,400
You guys looking? 
For these. 

1068
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:27,480
Days about 20. 
There's less than 100 in 

1069
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:32,920
existence, so, but, you know, if
you think about it, you've got 

1070
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:37,000
Gordon Murray's legacy. 
His new cars are fetching stupid

1071
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,560
money. 
And what I mean by that is he, I

1072
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:42,200
think they're about 2 million, 
the 250 and one sold for eight, 

1073
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,200
you know, so and it's just 
supply and demand. 

1074
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,440
There aren't any more, but you 
know, so. 

1075
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,320
Why do you think this took a 
minute to catch on? 

1076
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,480
To catch fire? 
Catch fire is not the word we 

1077
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:56,320
want to use the phrase you want 
to. 

1078
00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:59,320
Check literally and which we're 
thinking. 

1079
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:04,040
But when those cars were 
announced, right, I don't think 

1080
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,360
that they sold out immediately. 
There was some marketing going 

1081
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:12,320
on by our friends at GMA. 
Some we're the recipient of 

1082
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:16,480
those marketing efforts. 
And, you know, and, and that was

1083
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,640
what two years ago, I remember 
at Car Week, they, you know, 

1084
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:22,480
they're really pushing them and,
and they're already now trading 

1085
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:26,960
for, for four times that. 
Yeah, that's why I think people 

1086
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:30,240
realize how good a driver's car 
they are, right? 

1087
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:32,840
And then you. 
One of the best. 

1088
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,200
What else the stable of Gordon 
Murray is bringing out, right? 

1089
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,880
It's a cheap car versus a 20 
million car, right? 

1090
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:45,200
They've got 4520 million cars, 
$20 million cars with the S1 LM.

1091
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:47,600
I thought you were talking about
McLaren F1. 

1092
00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:52,760
Sorry, it was. 
But yeah, so that's going to be 

1093
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:57,360
an interesting one to watch. 
RM Sotheby's, I hope it gets 

1094
00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:59,880
good money. 
And it's also interesting that 

1095
00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:01,840
Nick Mason has decided to sell 
that car. 

1096
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,360
He also owns a 250 GTO, right? 
So. 

1097
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:07,000
Famously. 
Yeah, yeah. 

1098
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:10,720
So I wonder why he's decided now
is the time to sell the McLaren 

1099
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,520
F1. 
So Nick, if you're listening, 

1100
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:14,680
give us a call. 
Let us know. 

1101
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,160
We'd love to know. 
We'll help you sell it. 

1102
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:25,280
Yeah, so that's cool. 
JDM there are two not one but 2 

1103
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,720
when I started to do this 
research for this show, I 

1104
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:32,920
thought, oh, there's a 1 of 44 
Nissan Nismo 400R and then I did

1105
00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:36,000
a bit more research and there's 
actually 2 because broad arrow 

1106
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:41,120
and Gooding both have 10 funny. 
So it's. 

1107
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:45,160
Just the the NSXR of 2026 it's 
auctions. 

1108
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:50,520
But they made 400. 
Sorry 44 of the race inspired 

1109
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:57,040
Rd. cars. 
Yeah, I don't know much about 

1110
00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:58,840
that. 
Yeah, you know, I mean, I'm just

1111
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:03,840
not a JDM, big JDM guy. 
So some of the, you know, some 

1112
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,880
of the variants are lost on on 
me. 

1113
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:09,760
That said, you know, last couple
of years at car Week I've really

1114
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,600
started to pay attention to 
these cars and know a couple 

1115
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,560
guys who are local. 
You have them and they're pretty

1116
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:16,880
wonderful. 
They're pretty great, right. 

1117
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:21,400
Even just the the bog standard 
cars, they're so I don't know, 

1118
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,320
this might be, you know, maybe 
these cars are worth it. 

1119
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:28,160
I I just, you know, again, not 
for the casual. 

1120
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:37,680
Yeah, the record for a JDM car 
at auction was a LFA with the 

1121
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,280
Nurburg package. 
Oh yeah. 

1122
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:41,960
And that sold for 1.6. 
What? 

1123
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:46,000
And that's that's it. 
That is, that is the but that 

1124
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:48,160
set the bar now that had a 
certain colour, right? 

1125
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,880
Those were painted a certain. 
They did 2 colours I believe. 

1126
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:52,800
I think it was yellow and black,
I might be wrong. 

1127
00:59:52,840 --> 00:59:55,240
Definitely yellow. 
There were some yellow but it 

1128
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:56,160
wasn't unique. 
Yellow. 

1129
00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:57,560
I thought it was for a long 
time. 

1130
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:00,600
Yeah, they did a a second colour
and they had a few more 

1131
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:04,000
horsepower and 10 more 
horsepower, larger rear wing and

1132
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:07,440
there were only 64 of those in 
the world. 

1133
01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:10,680
Wow, so. 
Yeah, well, that helps. 

1134
01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:15,080
Again, that's a, I remember at 
the Chicago auto show, you know,

1135
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,400
whatever, was it 2012 or 
whatever, when those came out 

1136
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,920
and they had a whole row of them
and I was so impressed. 

1137
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:24,760
You know, Chicago auto shows ten
of these. 

1138
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:28,480
Well, then it rises. 
Well, they just just hadn't sold

1139
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:31,800
right at the team. 
Yeah, I know at the time, you 

1140
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:34,440
know, they they didn't really do
anything for me. 

1141
01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:37,960
You know, the exhaust pipes and 
I don't know, they they just 

1142
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:41,200
didn't quite look cohesive. 
But man, now they look great, I 

1143
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:42,720
think. 
And that I mean that engine, if 

1144
01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,320
you've ever been next to 1, you 
know, at fire up, they they're 

1145
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,200
they're a very special thing. 
So. 

1146
01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,200
There's a car Wow video that's 
just come out that is the 

1147
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:52,600
Carrera GT versus the LFA. 
Saw that. 

1148
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,040
Yeah. 
And I won't spoil it, but that's

1149
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:56,920
two V 10s that make great 
noises. 

1150
01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:00,760
So check out that. 
It's interesting because I think

1151
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:03,600
one of the reasons they've 
become more of a cult classic is

1152
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,760
a certain Mr. Clarkson said. 
It was the best car he's ever 

1153
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:08,800
driven. 
That helps. 

1154
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,960
Yeah, he's not an influencer, 
but he definitely is an 

1155
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,480
influencer. 
We did say this is the best car 

1156
01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:17,600
podcast you'd ever. 
Heard he said that more than 

1157
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:19,840
once, right? 
So it must be true, yeah. 

1158
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:22,960
Pretty cool you. 
Know, yeah, he said. 

1159
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:25,240
I hope those guys don't do a 
farming podcast because I'm 

1160
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:26,800
screwed. 
That's right, put them out of 

1161
01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:28,560
business. 
Yeah, there we go. 

1162
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,760
Let's go to meet him, Lindsay. 
A yellow Ferrari F50. 

1163
01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:36,960
Does that appeal? 
Actually, yes, yeah. 

1164
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:41,560
So I would prefer a red, but I 
think the yellow is unexpected 

1165
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:43,840
and fun. 
I will accept. 

1166
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:48,960
I think you will find because 
it's 1 of 31, I don't know how 

1167
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:53,600
many F 50s they made, obviously 
a lot less than the F40 and 

1168
01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:58,800
obviously it's the last manual. 
You know what was it? 

1169
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:01,560
It was every 10 years they did a
Halo card, didn't they? 

1170
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:06,520
288 F, 40 etcetera. 
So I think because it's yellow, 

1171
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:08,800
it's probably a special colour 
and it'll probably create more 

1172
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:10,000
value. 
Yeah, yeah. 

1173
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,160
That's what's a good investment.
Yellow looks good on. 

1174
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,800
Yeah, yes, yeah, it's a hit. 
Or mix colour. 

1175
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:18,840
I remember being at car week one
year and driving down the road 

1176
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,880
and there were four F 50s coming
the other way. 

1177
01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:23,480
Like that doesn't happen 
anywhere else in the world. 

1178
01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:26,280
About car week. 
No, Yeah, I have to. 

1179
01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:28,760
So we've had a couple of people,
a couple of friends of ours come

1180
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:31,720
up to us recently and say, you 
know, I've never been to Car 

1181
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:33,720
Week. 
I just, I don't think it's for 

1182
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:37,320
me, you know, This is why this 
is for you, because you see 

1183
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:41,000
things like 4 F 50s, you know, 
roaring past you because you 

1184
01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:44,200
don't see that anywhere else. 
I know I was just thinking about

1185
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:48,640
it today kind of in passing. 
And I think one of the things 

1186
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:52,080
that a lot of people don't 
realize is like you just said, 

1187
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:54,480
Ryan, you can just walk around 
town. 

1188
01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:56,320
You don't have to go to any 
events. 

1189
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:00,280
And one of my favorite things 
has been like the first night in

1190
01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,520
town, just go walk through 
Carmel, you see some 

1191
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:07,400
unbelievable stuff on the street
or just driving to the different

1192
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:11,480
events. 
Probably 3-2 to three years ago 

1193
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:16,560
there was this Armada of the 
like 6 by 6 G, There were two 

1194
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:21,280
six by 6G wagons and one of the 
the 2 door cabrio. 

1195
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,960
And then there was another 
unique one, and they would move 

1196
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,000
all four of them just around 
town. 

1197
01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:27,840
Yeah, Landolay I think was one 
of. 

1198
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:29,440
Them, yes, it was. 
That's what it was. 

1199
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:33,000
And, you know, they're just 
driving around town. 

1200
01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:36,600
Yeah, that's crazy. 
There are there is a bit of a 

1201
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:38,600
shake up going on this year at 
the auctions. 

1202
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:43,000
So traditionally Bonhoms have 
been associated with the quail 

1203
01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:47,080
and it used to be a bit of an 
inside baseball thing where you 

1204
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:49,600
could actually park at the 
Bonhoms auction and get into the

1205
01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:52,480
quail instead of having to do 
the the quail car park. 

1206
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:57,560
That's now stopped and they have
moved Laguna Seca. 

1207
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,880
So they will be for the first 
time doing their auction at 

1208
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:05,520
Laguna Seca. 
Obviously they have a a few race

1209
01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:08,240
car inspired or race inspired 
cars. 

1210
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:12,800
And the one that called my eye 
was a in essence, it's an indie 

1211
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:16,440
race car. 
Volstead I'm not sure if I 

1212
01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:18,080
pronounced that right. 
Lindsay, I don't know if the 

1213
01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:22,080
you're the expert on classic 
American Ford race cars. 

1214
01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:24,960
I try. 
Or just say, yeah. 

1215
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:30,200
And the reason I I called this 
one out is that actually it was 

1216
01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:35,800
Jim Clark's last US race car 
before the following year he 

1217
01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:39,000
passed. 
He raced Dan Gurney in an Eagle 

1218
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:40,320
in it. 
That's cool. 

1219
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:45,360
So it's a pretty cool car. 
And from talking to Gordon 

1220
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:48,640
Murray, Gordon said that Jim 
Clark was the best racer he's 

1221
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,280
ever seen. 
And he worked with Senna, Prost,

1222
01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:54,320
etcetera. 
So yeah. 

1223
01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:57,360
That's pretty special. 
So. 

1224
01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:59,560
That's that's first person 
listeners. 

1225
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:01,880
That's that's right. 
That's Dan just talking with his

1226
01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:05,520
mate Gordon. 
The big Gordon, yes. 

1227
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:09,280
So that means that there is a 
void at the quail that has been 

1228
01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:13,160
fulfilled by Broad Arrow. 
So Broad Arrow have now slid 

1229
01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:17,360
into the quail and their auction
will be where, you know, where 

1230
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:21,720
the bottoms tent used to be. 
And as I said earlier, they've 

1231
01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:25,400
got a 400R, they've got three 
singers. 

1232
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:30,440
Like has the boat now sailed on 
auction Singers because it's 

1233
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:33,920
getting over saturated? 
Possibly. 

1234
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,480
I mean, if they have three of 
them and the same, that's 

1235
01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:38,960
interesting. 
Obviously all the singers are so

1236
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:42,360
unique that maybe it doesn't 
apply in that sense because 

1237
01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:43,760
they're all so different from 
each other. 

1238
01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:48,320
Yeah, it's hard to say. 
I mean, because, you know, 

1239
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:52,000
they're, they're fundamentally 
wonderful creations, right? 

1240
01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:54,560
So you know, it's not all hype, 
right? 

1241
01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:55,720
They're, they're pretty 
wonderful. 

1242
01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:59,920
But I, I don't know, you know, I
mean, there's, you can only pump

1243
01:05:59,920 --> 01:06:02,840
out so many right before things 
do get saturated. 

1244
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:05,680
And I don't know if like every 
time I open up LinkedIn, they're

1245
01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:08,440
hiring people. 
It's, it's like I, I don't think

1246
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:10,520
they're planning on slowing down
anytime soon. 

1247
01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:14,800
So maybe they have kind of hit a
an inflection point. 

1248
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,840
Or I think if you wrote back a 
few years ago, I'm sure that 

1249
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:20,520
you'd look at the auctions of 
Car Week and there would be like

1250
01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:22,720
1 singer. 
Yeah, right. 

1251
01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:26,280
I don't remember there being 
multiple singers in any auction 

1252
01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:28,800
house, right? 
That's a few years ago, right. 

1253
01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:31,120
But well. 
It'll be fun to watch. 

1254
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:34,440
Well, so, so Broad Arrow will be
at the quail. 

1255
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:38,640
So then will there be an auction
associated with motor looks 

1256
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,000
because that's where Broad Arrow
has been in? 

1257
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:42,320
The last few years, good 
question. 

1258
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:43,560
I don't know. 
Yeah. 

1259
01:06:44,040 --> 01:06:47,480
Or has Motor Lux just sort of 
turned into this thing where, 

1260
01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,920
you know, I got the impression 
at least, especially last year, 

1261
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,800
there was almost just too much 
going on in that space, right. 

1262
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:59,120
And so maybe the focus wasn't a 
lot of distractions right from 

1263
01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:03,840
the auction, in my opinion. 
But you know, I I know Ken on a 

1264
01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:05,880
bit, you know, well, you know, 
he runs broad arrow. 

1265
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:08,800
Maybe we should have him on 
after car week and and get his, 

1266
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:11,760
his, his taken. 
Speaking of Mekam, we've got Sam

1267
01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:13,760
Murtagh. 
He's the the chief operating 

1268
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:15,720
officer of Mekam coming out next
week. 

1269
01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:20,240
So yeah, car week focus for 
sure, but I, I'm very curious to

1270
01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:24,240
get both, both his take and 
Ken's just on because how, how 

1271
01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:26,240
the the auctions are evolving, 
right? 

1272
01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:30,040
I mean, decisions like that 
aren't taken lightly, right? 

1273
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:32,080
You don't just decide, oh, I'm 
going to move venues or 

1274
01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:34,280
whatever. 
I mean, this is very deliberate 

1275
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,080
and and there's got to be a 
reason for that. 

1276
01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:39,960
I'm very curious how that all 
shakes out and why it all shakes

1277
01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:40,800
out like it does. 
So. 

1278
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:43,000
Yeah. 
Well, I mean that there is a 

1279
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:45,160
little bit of history amongst 
these auction houses, right? 

1280
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:48,640
Because the Amelia Island got 
bought by Haggerty. 

1281
01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:53,400
RM used to have premier spot, 
right? 

1282
01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:55,400
They used to have the best pitch
there. 

1283
01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:59,800
And then one year, because 
Haggerty own Broad Arrow, 

1284
01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:03,400
Haggerty put RM in that 
position. 

1285
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:08,960
And that is why we now have Moda
down in Miami because RM went 

1286
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:12,200
screw you guys. 
We'll do our own car event and, 

1287
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,520
and this is well documented. 
So it's not like it's inside 

1288
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,760
knowledge, so. 
Tell the people it is dude. 

1289
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:21,399
Yeah, only on that car show, 
tell you. 1. 

1290
01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:26,479
But because you can next week 
you can ask about the yellow F50

1291
01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:29,399
because they're they're starting
that much many other cars. 

1292
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:33,160
As far as you know, is RM at? 
Is it the Portofino? 

1293
01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:35,080
The hotel in Monterey again this
year? 

1294
01:08:35,399 --> 01:08:36,880
I think so. 
It's like mixed to the 

1295
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:38,880
Conference Center, isn't it? 
Downtown yeah that's kind of a 

1296
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,240
special because that's got a 
completely different vibe right 

1297
01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:43,720
that's just each and I think 
that's the neatest thing each 

1298
01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:46,479
one of these auctions whether 
it's good and whatever each one 

1299
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:49,800
is a completely different vibe 
right The carbs are a little bit

1300
01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:53,000
different it's you know 
completely different venue so 

1301
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:55,080
it's worth checking them all out
if you can because you you're 

1302
01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:56,359
gonna. 
Yeah, because they are so 

1303
01:08:56,359 --> 01:08:58,439
different. 
It's not like, oh, if you've 

1304
01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:00,399
seen one, you've seen them all. 
Like you said, like the 

1305
01:09:00,399 --> 01:09:04,000
Portofino has that wonderful 
outdoor kind of motor court 

1306
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,120
where they can display them and 
you know, the other ones have 

1307
01:09:07,279 --> 01:09:10,200
all it's, it's very different, 
but cool and it's 1. 

1308
01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:14,880
Pro tip, go to the far reaches 
of these auctions, see what's 

1309
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:17,600
tucked away in the far corners, 
and you're going to see some of 

1310
01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:19,640
the most interesting stuff. 
So nice. 

1311
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:22,080
Yeah, maybe not the prettiest 
stuff. 

1312
01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:24,399
Or the. 
And then Gooding just to round 

1313
01:09:24,399 --> 01:09:28,560
that off Gooding at it's good 
and Christy and they, they are 

1314
01:09:28,560 --> 01:09:30,640
actually on the golf course next
to the golf course. 

1315
01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:33,399
So there's almost like a little 
village that gets built up 

1316
01:09:33,399 --> 01:09:35,960
during car week and that's where
they're located. 

1317
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:40,040
So if you go and watch the car 
tour, which I think is on the 

1318
01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:45,359
Thursday, Thursday, you can go 
into Gooding at that point. 

1319
01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:48,080
So all the cars that are going 
to be on the lawn on the Sunday 

1320
01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:52,200
get go on a rally, basically 17 
mile drive. 

1321
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:55,680
And that's the prime location 
for where Gooding are. 

1322
01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:58,520
So you can go watch the cars 
leave and then go into Gooding 

1323
01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:03,960
and have a good look around. 
Good Thursday itinerary. 

1324
01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:07,560
Yes, yes. 
And then check out some of the 

1325
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,000
houses, right? 
That's the other thing to go on 

1326
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:13,160
the first day, go to the Range 
Rover house or yeah, the BMW 

1327
01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,240
house. 
Yeah, should be so lucky. 

1328
01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:18,400
Right. 
Yeah, again. 

1329
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:20,440
I can't wait. 
I'm really looking forward to 

1330
01:10:20,440 --> 01:10:21,480
it. 
It's it's now. 

1331
01:10:21,480 --> 01:10:23,520
I've done it a couple of times. 
It's under my skin. 

1332
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,880
It'd be very difficult to not. 
Yeah. 

1333
01:10:26,400 --> 01:10:30,000
It's. 
Well, I think we're at a show, 

1334
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:31,760
aren't we? 
I think so. 

1335
01:10:32,040 --> 01:10:34,720
Good, good God we are. 
We're way over an hour. 

1336
01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:36,360
Time flies when you're having 
fun. 

1337
01:10:36,440 --> 01:10:37,440
Well done. 
Exactly. 

1338
01:10:37,440 --> 01:10:38,680
It's. 
Good to have you back. 

1339
01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:40,840
I know. 
Yeah, it's good to be back. 

1340
01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:45,080
And yeah, it's. 
Let us know what you think about

1341
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:47,560
the auction cars. 
Let us know if you're crazy 

1342
01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:49,240
enough to be bidding on a 
Ferrari. 

1343
01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:52,160
Lucci, Maybe we want to unfriend
you on LinkedIn. 

1344
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,240
We want to be making informed 
decisions around here, right? 

1345
01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:02,400
Yeah, but yeah, I guess Lindsay,
take us out with a phrase that 

1346
01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:03,880
pays. 
All right. 

1347
01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:06,840
Well, thank you so much for 
listening. 

1348
01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:11,320

1352
01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:21,360
