Why Automakers DON'T Make Cars for You Anymore

Matt Farah pulls up to the SCR Garage to break down the Aston Martin Vantage S and Aston Martin Valhalla, debate carmakers' million-dollar hypercar obsession, and drop a rumor about a Porsche GT3 Touring Cabriolet. Plus: a road rage incident at the Brentwood Country Club, Daniel Craig shilling for a Chinese EV, and Omega's identity crisis.

Matt Farah is in the building, and nothing is off limits. Lieberman calls the Aston Martin Vantage S "sorted" and explains why the roadster beats the coupe. The Valhalla gets a deep dive: 999 units, $1.2M, carbon tub, three electric motors, and an engineer poached from McLaren. Then the guys get into whether hypercars are actually a sustainable business model or just manufacturers chasing ultra-rich buyers while leaving enthusiasts behind.

A double-sourced rumor surfaces: Porsche may be building a GT3 Touring Cabriolet, possibly called the "Sport Cab" with prototypes already spotted at Weissach.

Other stops on this episode: the Toyota Land Cruiser's identity crisis, a brutal Corvette Z06 crash, Spike's Bronco getting beat up by a caddy from the Brentwood Country Club, and Daniel Craig looking very uncomfortable in Denza EV promo photos.

Matt Farah is also giving away a fully optioned Porsche Turbo S!
