About this episode
Matt Farah went to Spain to drive all new Porsche 911 Turbo S. It has new tech, more power, more comfort, and even a surprisingly fun trick. Plus, Lamborghini makes a big reliability bet that has us do "car enthusiast math"; and we answer Patreon questions including:
- How to answer that question at a car show
- What to replace my quick Volvo wagon with?
- Why didn't Lincoln get a Mach-E?
- When to buy the loaded car and when not to
- Our camera mount advice
- Did Chevy only make ONE car in the '50s?
- Will LED grills ever go away?
- Can the Volt return?
- Does my Crown Vic need all the police stuff?
- Does price change our opinion of used Aston Martins?
- And more!
