Spike kicks things off with tales from Audrain Newport Car Week, sharing his experiences at Jay Leno's mansion and smoking cigars with the legend himself. Matt reveals details about his custom Myers Manx with its stratospheric blue metallic gel coat, beach-themed interior, and hot dog shifter knob.
Matt then delivers an unfiltered review of the Ford Mustang GTD (huge but impressive) and the mind-blowing Czinger 21C, which he calls "the fastest thing I've ever driven" and "pure lunacy."

The episode wraps with a practical solution to the Porsche 718 Spyder RS top fault problem, proving once again that sometimes the simplest fixes are the most elusive.
