The theme show returns! Matt Farah and Zack Klapman choose their top 5 favorite cars that got their engines from different company than the one that designed and built the car. Think Mercedes engine in a non-Mercedes. Surprisingly, Matt and Zack only overlap on one car.

 

There's also an update on clingy M3 steering fittings; a discussion of tartan placement; and questions from the Patreon members including:

 

- Which company should close their doors: Maserati, Chrysler, Nissan, or Jaguar?- At what point do you sell your high-maintenance daily?- How did we react to the Dodge Neon SRT-4?- Where will Rivian be in 5 years?- What is the stupidest "performance" modification?- Which era had the best clothing?- Beautiful cars that don't get enough attention- It's the year 2040. What 3 early 2000s cars do you buy to cosplay rich person?- Should Hyundai make a $200,000 EV sports car?- What is the difference in feel between a Ferrari V12 and a Lamborghini V12?

And more!

Lynn Calder had no automotive history in her resume when she became CEO of INEOS Automotive, but that hasn't stopped the company from becoming one of the hottest things in recent years. Their rugged retro-styled SUV is now sold in 50 countries, filling a hole left by most of the OEMs.

 

 

In this episode we ask how she got the job; what's in her garage; the reason the company was created; why the Grenadier has been so popular; the challenges that come with launching a new car company; the future of EVs and hybrids; and what's next.

Matt Farah drove the $3M Pagani Utopia and had some interesting interactions with police vehicles; Zack Klapman talks about the changes to the facelifted Hyundai Elantra N he's been driving; a streamer crashing his McLaren isn't the worst part of that accident; rank every generation of BMW M3; Chris Harris updates his M5 wagon's interior; and we answer your questions about:

 

   Is it ok to change our my race compound tire?   Are used Jag F-Types a good buy?   What current cars are future classics?   Would we rather have an Oilstain Lab Half-11 or a Richard Tuthill's 911K?   Which Hyundai vehicle should have the N treatment?   Should I buy an Aliexpress watch?   Why won't these EVs fit in my garage?   Is Mazda "too mature" these days?

Matt Farah and Zack Klapman discuss the Tesla Robotaxi release party: what it was; what the car means; the issues it allegedly solves; and what doesn't sit right about it.

 

Then Matt describes his evening at the release party for the Rolls-Royce Cullinan 2; updates us on what broke on his old Bentley; and finds out that Porsche gauges aren't always telling the truth.

Joey Seely is an engineer who builds some of the fastest unique Porsches on Earth. After cutting his teeth on Porsche Motorsport's race team, he co-founded BBI Autosport, then opened his business, Emotion Engineering. They focus on tailoring high-performance cars to the driver and environment using a mix of off-the-shelf parts and many of their own design. In a few years Joey has built a custom Pikes Peak car for Rhys Millen, ran Jeff Zwart's 935 campaign, practically created the modern overland Cayenne movement, turned a Turbo S into a Baja machine, all while continuing to learn, innovate, and push the limits.

 

On this episode we talk about his amazing air-cooled Project Nasty; why a smaller-tire racing series is a good idea; what's "wrong" with a GT3; overrated paint colors; what he learned by doing things wrong; some of the tricks on Rhys' Pikes Peak car; carbon fiber costs; and so much more.

What began as the humble YouTube channel Everyday Driver has grown into a brand that hosts track days, produces films for Amazon, and organizes road trips for enthusiasts. Behind it (and in front of the cameras) since the beginning are Todd Deeken and Paul Schmucker, two of the nicest people in automotive media. On this episode, they sit down to talk about their track events, race track culture, the speed of today's cars, strange exhausts that skirt the rules, and more.

Adam Golden is the founder of MentaWatches.com, a website dedicated to helping you learn about, buy, and sell watches. He has a passion for them that is infectious but he also doesn't agree with everyone else. In his eyes, some "special error" watches aren't that special. On this episode he explains why; how a diver watch is and is not like a Porsche GT3; the cool new brand he likes; why "birth date" watches aren't for him; and more !
