Overpaid for a car in the crazy Covid cash-grab? Many did. Who's to blame?

Your best chance of an accident is literally in your own backyard. Stephan tells us why familiarity can be very dangerous.

Longtime car dealer and this week's guest, Gary Duncan, joins the conversation. Swearing he'd never own a right-hand-drive car, he decided to import 5,000 of them in the last 5 years to become the Jedi master of JDM cars.

His interview proves that vision, integrity and focus matter in success, cars, life. Tune in to see how!

Stephan takes a trip to the Savoy Museum. Big wow for the design, layout, and choices. Add it to your bucket list.

Adams introduces the new Genesis GV80 which channels the Lamborghini Uvula (or something like that) for a very good reason.

It's all in today’s action-packed line-up that you must share with your friends.

Paul Newman, eternal car guy, left about 300 items for Sotheby's to sell. What collectibles will be up for sale? We hope one of his $1M Rolex's makes a debut.

Adams spots an El Camino (don't tell his wife) - is it a car or a truck? Ask Santa Cruz and Maverick owners. Which one is wearing a reverse mullet?

GM halts production of some of its pickups, plus a Jeep model you probably never knew existed.

Remember when cars said who you were? Now they say who you want to be. What's yours saying about you, and what's up with all the posing?

Plus, Stephan has a scary close encounter with an errant boulder. How the Porsche driving experience may have saved his life, and others.

GM Backs down from On-Star as a "mandatory option" indicating they may’ve looked up the meaning of those two words.

Car Spotting the 1988 Mercedes 300 CE: When is a brick beautiful? Tapered, tightened, but not lightened, this MB is a drivable classic that

Supersize me. Not. Porsche goes all out with an upscale (with emphasis on ‘scale’), plus-sized “K1” SUV sure to sell well and to crack

Guest Brett Williams - USAF Fighter Pilot, Cyber Security Pro, and Serial Porschephile answers the question we all want to know:

The guys agree with an internet wag who described the Ford Bronco as an Escape with an Otter Box on it. He's right.

They then hone in on the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s classic album, ‘Dark Side of the Moon’. Meaningful then, meaningful now, and

Car Spotting: Adams spots a Honda S2000. In his own garage (he just bought one). Lazy? Yes, but it's also an enthusiast’s car with an up-and-coming collectible side. His cohorts deem the attraction short-lived.

What is up at Nissan? Junk credit, yawner product line, and innovation only a yo-yo could admire. The brand has fallen mightily in its desirability quotient. Is it

Next, is the BEV honeymoon over before the marriage was consummated? Though we feign seriousness, Stephan sparks multi-faceted comments

The Dick Barbour Interview. Buckle up people and enjoy a thrilling ride with a man who bought a used Porsche Speedster at 16, won his first-ever race in it, built a parts-selling mega business, and then became a Porsche-Audi dealer.

Those endeavors simply funded his bigger goal to be a top-level race driver and team owner, where he scored wins in every endurance race in the world that matters. Phew! Then he takes 20 years off and does it again. His proudest achievement after a Hall of Fame career? He’ll share it during the interview.

We also visit the surprising new Consumer Reports ‘reliability’ lists. BMW at the Top? Whoa! But it's true.

Adams spots an old smoky, dirty Porsche 993 limping happily along in Vegas instead of the concours field. Join in the fun now.

Our guest James Steele discusses his Bronco's arrival and the long process he endured before it (finally) got to him. Btw - despite the delay, he loves it.

Morgan is returning to the US with a $70K wood-framed sports car that looks a lot like a Morgan from 1955. But now it sports a modern 255HP BMW engine and transmission. The guys, ummm, like it.

Adams spots a 2019 Nissan GTR, and we agree that after 15 years it still doesn't make much sense. Note to Nissan: put the GTR drivetrain into the Z and an Infiniti sedan or SUV. People would *lap up* an Infiniti facsimile of the BMW M5 or X5M.

The guys then talk about their first-ever cars as well as their favorite rides.

Finally trauma surgeon Stephan goes into the parts or sections of various interiors that can cause injuries during a crash. Spoiler alert: electronic parking brakes are better than pedal operated ones.  

We look back on year 1 of CoC highlighting the Felicity Ace, 4Runners, and the "Teslafication of car sales".

Adams does a deep dive into the Gen 1 Jaguar XK8, then Stephan loves on Ford coming back to F1 and hates on the team they're joining (hint: they're a bunch of whiney ass bitches)

Are full size pickup trucks becoming passenger carriers with a small uncovered space to carry stuff? The evidence says yes.

Finally trauma surgeon Stephan goes into Volvo vs Mercedes approaches to safety plus other ways the roads can be made safer.
