It's straight into the Porsche 914 restoration saga. Jonny's 1973 914 has been sitting at a shop for seven years. Zuckerman made his opening diplomatic move, calling the restorer to request status photos. Spike floats the idea of pulling it out and finishing it with a Cali shop from the podcast network. The Signal Yellow paint job was apparently done by eye, which tracks. Next up is the Ferrari Luce, which has already hit its annual sales target, driven mostly by demand in China. Spike called it. Jonny still thinks it looks like an old USB drive. They both agree it drives well, which is at least something. For the SUV comparison, Jonny breaks down the Lexus LX 700h Overtrail: twin-turbo V6 hybrid, 459 hp, 538 lb-ft, three locking differentials, hydraulic-pneumatic suspension, and 18-inch Toyo Open Country III tires. Off-road credibility is real. So is the $121,000 price. Spike counters with the 2027 Kia Telluride HEV X-Line SX Prestige at $62,000, hitting 35 mpg, dual wireless chargers, and interior quality that punches well above its price point. His argument: South Korean design is lapping the competition at half the cost. The news segment covers: a dad in Singapore who let his two sons ride on the rear wing of his Porsche in traffic, a Porsche 911 GT3 RS that tumbled 500 feet down a ravine on Angeles Crest Highway, and a New Jersey cop who put on a ghillie suit, hid next to a tree, and caught 74 distracted drivers in six hours. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: contact@neontiger.media 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Jonny's cursed Porsche 914 resto 10:06 - The Ferrari Luce is SOLD OUT? 17:04 - Lexus LX review 22:18 - Kia Telluride Hybrid review 32:20 - Why your car is spying on you 35:51 - We can't stop buying cars 37:13 - Porsche extra seating hack 40:48 - Another brutal GT3 RS crash at ACH 42:54 - Advanced anti-text-and-drive tactics 47:28 - The future of car tech Learn more about your ad choices.
