November 12, 2025 V12 Regrets, 911 Turbo Value Hunt & Listener Roast – Full Throttle Talk #39
Welcome to another wild ride with the FTT crew — if you thought you were just getting car talk, buckle up.
This week:
“What we did in cars” — because one of us is still obsessing over that Honda Odyssey Type R by Bisimoto Engineering, and another has spent way too much time with a fake “9146 GT.”
Auto-news that’ll make your shop feel under-equipped: twin-cam conversions, sports car rumors, and the return of purposeful builds.
“I could’ve had a V12” — yes, we’re dragging you into the deep end. Two V12 options (one modern, one vintage) under ~$600K. Flat-12 counts. W12s? Nope. We’re better than that.
Turbo911 value raid — The Porsche 911 Turbo S price is off the charts. So we ask: why buy new when there’s garage gold hiding in the back catalog (997.2, 991.1, you’re up)?
Listener questions & comments: We’re roasting, praising, and straight-up answering your real-world car dilemmas.
This or That: Unlimited budget, one car, limited garage space. Which beast would you pick?
Smash that Subscribe, hit the bell, and sign up for our newsletter if you want the behind-the-scenes + bonus snark (yes, it’s real). Drop your article submissions or listener comments via IG DM.

November 05, 2025 Porsche Prices, Tesla Track Mayhem & The Myth of the “Investment” Car 💸 | Full Throttle Talk
This week on Full Throttle Talk, the crew dives headfirst into the world of cars we love, hate, and irrationally justify buying.

🚗 What’s inside:
TR2 adventures, MFI vs. Slant Cab showdowns, and 3RS Sunday Service confessions.
Tesla goes full kamikaze — drives straight onto a live motorcycle race at Buttonwillow (you can’t make this up).
Porsche patents “Tunnel Mode” — because who doesn’t need more drama in their downshifts.
Market check: The 2025 Porsche values rollercoaster — 996 GT3s, 987 Boxsters, 964s, and a sleepy ‘73 911S.

🎙️ Listener Questions:
→ What’s the best sub-$50k enthusiast car?
→ Do stock cars sell better than modified ones?
→ Have Ferrari’s “Speciale” models lost their edge?
→ Is a track-only car ever worth it?

⚖️ This or That:
The under-$100k cars that might actually appreciate (and the ones that definitely won’t).

🔥 The Verdict:
Porsche’s market looks strong, Ferrari’s “Speciale” might not be, and Tesla’s still Tesla.

October 29, 2025Ferrari Speciale vs Porsche GT3 RS: Are We Being Played? | Winter Car Prep, Listener Q&A + More
This Week on Full Throttle Talk
The crew covers everything from Ferrari’s 296 Speciale hype to the age-old question — is Porsche about to copy Ferrari’s “too many trims, too little soul” playbook with the GT cars? 🤔
🚗 This Episode Includes:
Fall Driving Diaries → Tim logs 10+ hours in the 718 RS, Speedster, Miata & TR before heading back to PR. Paul goes full RADwood, Casey daily’s the Land Cruiser, and David finally picks up his GT3 RS (but has only driven 40 miles… shame!).
Automotive News → Ferrari says the Speciale isn’t a GT3 RS competitor (so what is it?). Honda kills the Civic Type R in Europe — could North America be next? Plus, Toyota’s turbo FJ60 restomod and Porsche’s secret W18 hypercar engine concept.
Proper Winter Car Prep → Do you actually need fuel stabilizer, tire bags, dehumidifiers, and Li-ion battery tenders… or should you just slap on winter wheels and drive it?
🎧 Listener Questions (the Good Stuff):
• How do you corner an air-cooled 911 without mowing a lawn?
• Why Ferrari brakes feel dead vs. Porsche’s PCCBs.
• Carrera T vs. horsepower bloat — why “less” really is more.
• Is Ferrari’s “Speciale” line just expensive carbon packages now?
• Porsche GT3 RS ESC/TC settings for real-world spirited driving.
• Which matters more: sound or speed, if regulations kill both?
🔥 This or That:
BaT match-ups include a $15K Ford LTD vs. a $16K Anniversary Corvette, Carrera coupe vs. cabrio, RS6 Avant vs. AMG E63 wagon, and even Fiat 500 vs. Messerschmitt.

October 08, 2025Luft 11 Porsche Show | Forged, Mag vs Carbon Wheels Explained | Real vs Fake Ferrari Debate
Welcome back to Full Throttle Talk! In this episode we cover Luft 11, the world’s most unique Porsche gathering—part car show, part cult, and pure heaven for air-cooled Porsche fans. If you’ve ever wondered what makes Luft so different from every other automotive event, this is your insider take.
We also dive into wheels: forged vs cast, carbon fiber vs magnesium. What’s actually worth your money? How long do carbon fiber wheels really last? Should you ever trust old mag wheels? If you’ve debated Fuchs vs modern aftermarket, this is for you.
Next, we get controversial: real vs fake Ferraris. What actually makes a classic car “real”? VIN tags, logbooks, or originality? We dissected the Bring a Trailer Ferrari 212 listing that sparked the debate.
Other topics include:
Luft 11 highlights from Porsche nerds who’ve been to almost every Luft event.

Mazda Miata factory restorations and the new Toyota + Mazda sports car collab.

Lucid EV sales jump and whether the new EV 781 will flop or succeed.

This or That: Porsches vs Ferraris, wagons vs sedans, and more.

September 24, 2025Porsche 911 Turbo S vs Ferrari 296 GTB: Which Supercar Wins? | Porsche Realignment, Youngtimers vs Oldtimers & Auction Shockers
This week’s episode of Full Throttle Talk is a car enthusiast rollercoaster—equal parts serious debate, sarcastic banter, and auction insanity. If you’ve ever wondered whether you should blow your budget on a brand-new Porsche 911 Turbo S or roll the dice on a Ferrari 296 GTB, this episode is for you. We’re talking weekend toys, extra cars, and the real questions that matter: do you want German precision with a warranty, or Italian drama with curves that melt your soul?
But that’s just the starting line. We also tear into:
Porsche’s Strategic Realignment – The new PHEV Macan, whispers of a budget sports car under $75K, and why the BEV 718 “will suck so hard.” Are Porsche dealers panicking behind the curtain?

Youngtimers vs Oldtimers – Why ‘90s and 2000s cars (your old Gran Turismo heroes) are skyrocketing while 356s and non-special ‘70s 911s sit flat. We predict the next wave of collectibles and argue about demographics, wealth transfer, and nostalgia.

Choosing your weekend car wisely – 964 RS, 993 C2S, 997 Club Sport, Ferrari 296 GTB, or a modern 911 Turbo. What really fits your lifestyle, roads, budget, and sanity?

Collector Car Auctions – From legendary Porsche 904s and Ferrari race cars to utterly ridiculous sales like the Wagon Queen Family Truckster and a Yugo Cabrio. Yes, people actually pay real money for this stuff.

Pop Quizzes & Debates – What was the hottest car of 2025? What’s the “It Girl” of 2026? 997 GT3 RS 4.0 vs Singer Classic. Favorite old features that should return (spoiler: everyone wants pop-up headlights back).
And of course, the crew shares real car life updates:
Teaching friends how to wrangle a Ferrari 296 GTS on carbon fiber wheels.

Backroad adventures in the Swedish Sled.

Upgrades that transform clutch feel.

Shakedown runs ahead of Targa Carolina in an air-cooled 911 with fresh electric A/C.
If you love Porsche vs Ferrari debates, car auction madness, and brutally honest takes on the future of collector cars, this is your show.
Subscribe, share, and join the conversation. We don’t do boring—we do uncensored, sarcastic, opinionated car talk the way it should be.

September 17, 2025Porsche Supercar Smackdown, Is 'Real" Car Journalism Dead & Trends That Need Go (Farting Exhausts, Homage Liverys, etc)
🎙️ This Week on Full Throttle Talk
We’re taking no prisoners. From Porsche supercar fantasy drafts (959, Carrera GT, GT2 RS, GT3 RS… which ONE would you actually keep?) to the death of real automotive journalism (looking at you, YouTubers & manufacturer mouthpieces), we’re calling it like it is.
🔥 Rants include:
The dumbest automotive trends that need to vanish (matte paint, carbon fiber overload, burble tunes, and those ridiculous gooseneck wings)

Predictions on which fads will age like milk

Auction insanity: why vintage Porsche & Ferrari race cars are still the ultimate benchmark

Market madness: “Old man spec” 993s breaking six figures — WTF?!

Watch talk: what we’re wearing and hunting this week

C&C throwbacks, slantnose shakedowns, and Monterey Car Week stories
This one’s loaded with car culture controversy, Porsche hot takes, Ferrari digs, auction shockers, and watch-collector banter. If you’re into Porsches, Ferraris, supercars, or just calling BS on the industry, this is your episode.
