Spike sits down with James Pumphrey from Speeed to cover everything from a $3,000 VW Golf project car to a $2.1 million gold plated Iron Man-themed 840HP Turbo Speedster. Plus: the 911 GT3 SC, 911 GT4, watchmaking in Geneva, and a live engine start in the SCR Garage. ______________________________________________ 🫧 Meguiar's - 125 Years of Passion Premium products to clean, restore, and protect your vehicle https://meguiarsdirect.com/collections/new 💧 Pocket Hose - The #1 Expanding Hose in the World Text SPIKE to 64000 to get a FREE Pocket Pivot and 10-Pattern Sprayer with Purchase of the Pocket Hose Ballistic! 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com 🔵 BlueChew - Get Bricked Up with BlueChew Gold Buy 2 months of BlueChew Gold, get the 3rd month for FREE with code SPIKE911 https://BlueChew.com GRAB SOME SCR MERCH: https://spikescarradio.com GET MORE SCR ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/spikescarradio ______________________________________________ James Pumphrey hit the Dakar Rally with Tudor watches, then flew to Geneva to attempt building a watch movement by hand. Spoiler: tiny screws are no joke. Back stateside, he's turning a $3,000 VW Golf with 300k miles into a project car built for regular people, not influencers with sponsor budgets. Peter Nam of Gunther Werks crashed the episode last-minute to bring in the 'Endgame': a one-of-one 4.0L twin-turbo Speedster commissioned by a client with a serious Marvel obsession. We're talking 840 horsepower, 2,600 lbs, 24k gold-plated engine components, and a shifter micro-pavéd with real gemstones representing the Infinity Stones. The candy red paint was matched to high-end Iron Man figures. This thing is absurd in the best possible way. Along the way: Porsche GT3 SC debate, the 911 GT4 rumors nobody's officially confirmed, a Malibu GT3 RS crash Spike definitely wasn't involved in, and a roast of a Porsche dealership's Botox-and-matching-outfits marketing campaign aimed at women. Also: Peter drops insider intel on Porsche's upcoming $2.5–3M Hybrid V8 halo car. Not the Mission X. Something much more interesting. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Introducing James Pumphrey 01:27 - Rally cars and building watches with Tudor 11:38 - Why you should have a cheap project car 21:51 - 2027 Porsche 911 GT3 SC announced 25:29 - There's gonna be a 911 GT4? 27:26 - Brutal Porsche GT3 crash 29:44 - Porsche and Pilates is back with a vengeance 37:06 - $2M Gunther Werks Iron Man Porsche Learn more about your ad choices.

Spike and Zuckerman sit down with Evan from LA in a Minute to dig into the surprisingly rich automotive history of Los Angeles, from the first gas-powered car tested at 2 a.m. on Broadway in 1897 to how a racing speedway literally built Beverly Hills. Plus, Spike reviews the Aston Martin Vantage S, Evan confesses to rear-ending a nun, and the crew debates why Angelenos can't stop saying "the" before freeway numbers. ______________________________________________ 🫧 Meguiar's - 125 Years of Passion Premium products to clean, restore, and protect your vehicle https://meguiarsdirect.com/collections/new 🛞 Vredestein - Car, SUV, Van, and Light Truck Tires Demand a better tire.

They trace the city's car culture all the way back to 1897, when two guys, Erie and Sturgis, built a Karl Benz-inspired four-wheeler in Boyle Heights and snuck it out at 2 a.m. to avoid spooking horses. From there: the Beverly Hills Speedway (yes, that's why Beverly Hills is Beverly Hills), the golden age of LA mass transit that somehow nobody remembers, In-N-Out inventing the two-way speaker box in 1948, and why Angelenos measure every trip in minutes, not miles. Spike also reviews the Aston Martin Vantage S: 670hp, plasma blue, CarPlay Ultra, and apparently better than a Porsche in at least one dimension. Evan delivers a confession about rear-ending a nun while reading a magazine. And the crew gives the Petersen Automotive Museum its flowers, including the vault that holds Magnum P.I.'s Ferrari and an Ayrton Senna F1 car. If you live in LA, drive through LA, or have ever wondered why everyone says "the 405", this one's for you. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Introducing Evan from LA in a Minute 01:10 - The first car in LA 07:13 - The secret history of Beverly Hills racing 16:49 - How LA became the world's car capitol 27:04 - LA traffic 28:36 - Bad drivers 36:24 - Aston Martin Vantage S review 44:45 - The secrets of the Petersen Museum 49:17 - Coachella 54:15 - The mess of LA highways Learn more about your ad choices.

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. ______________________________________________ 🫧 Meguiar's - 125 Years of Passion Premium products to clean, restore, and protect your vehicle https://meguiarsdirect.com/collections/new 📻 Listen to DRIVE with Jim Farley Check out the new season of the Ford CEO's car podcast! https://lnk.to/drivewithjimfarleyPS!spikescarradio 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com 🛩️ Luxury Aircraft Solutions - Premier Private Jet Charter Get $250 off your first flight or 3 FREE MONTHS of the Passport Membership with code SPIKE911 https://luxuryaircraftsolutions.com GRAB SOME SCR MERCH: https://spikescarradio.com GET MORE SCR ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/spikescarradio ______________________________________________ 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.

Spike, Jonny, and Zuckerman cover the McLaren Artura, Jay Leno's classic car smog exemption bill, and a wild breakdown of the Reacher actor's neighbor brawl.

Zuckerman got his '66 with freshly fettled carbs and calls it a brand-new car after 14 years. Then it's a full review of the McLaren Artura — great daily driver, great canyon carver, but does it have the dream factor? Jonny says "I love McLarens. I'm not in love with this McLaren." The guys also dig into Jay Leno's renewed effort to kill smog tests for classic cars in California, a luxury watch trader doing 15 years for drug money laundering (and whether the same thing's happening in car auctions), and an anti-AI Waymo attack. Russell Crowe's watch collection gets a proper salute, and Tyler Sheridan's TV universe gets roasted for its very reliable coed shower formula. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - How to make a car feel new 03:21 - 1966 Porsche 911 08:54 - Tiger Woods DUI 12:57 - McLaren Artura review 21:36 - Alan Ritchson neighbor fight 30:59 - Leno's Law returns 33:24 - Porsche 718 Cayman is the least depreciating car? 40:33 - Russell Crowe watches 44:46 - Massive multimillion dollar watch theft 47:34 - Anti-AI Waymo attack 50:33 - The crappy Taylor Sheridan TV universe Learn more about your ad choices.

The SCR Garage is selling their rare Zagato to fund the next project, and we find out that Kramer's car on Seinfeld was one of the first production vehicles with a working airbag. Ford CEO Jim Farley is one of the most car-obsessed executives in the industry, and it shows. He breaks down why Ford partnered with Red Bull for their F1 power unit, what tech actually transfers from the track to your driveway, and why Formula 1's growth isn't slowing down anytime soon. Farley also gets into IndyCar's uphill battle, the 2026 Mustang Dark Horse SC, Ford's all-hybrid and EREV future, and his personally-delivered black Ford Explorer to Pope Leo. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Alfa Romeo-Gate 01:33 - Jaguar's PR keeps getting worse 04:46 - We're selling the Zagato? 10:12 - Kramer's car from Seinfeld 16:08 - Porsche's manual AND auto gearbox patent 23:51 - Toyota 4Runner Trailhunter review 34:05 - Robot malfunction fails 40:10 - Introducing Ford CEO Jim Farley 40:37 - Ford in F1 43:42 - IndyCar 44:59 - Pope Leo's Ford Explorer 48:32 - Ford Mustang Dark Horse SC 54:59 - Are EVs in America dead?

Spike and Zuckerman hold down the garage, while Jonny is lost somewhere in Austin. Zuckerman rolls in a pristine 1968 Alfa Romeo GT Junior (factory plastic still on the seats) and Brian Finster from Sotheby's Motorsport stops by to talk high-end online car auctions. Also on the docket: California's Montana car registration tax evasion crackdown, the new Porsche 911 Turbo S putting GT3 buyers in an existential crisis, and somehow... funeral home horror stories. ______________________________________________ 🚘 Sotheby's Motorsport - High-end, Luxury & Rare Car Auctions Bid on the Python Green 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cab! https://sothebysmotorsport.com/auction/2021-porsche-911turboscabriolet-9192 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com 🛞 Vredestein - Car, SUV, Van, and Light Truck Tires Demand a better tire.

Paul Zuckerman brings in a stunning 1968 Alfa Romeo GT Junio: Bluette paint, Cinghiale interior, flying buttress seats, and yes, the original factory plastic still intact. The big debate: do you peel it or leave it? The guys pivot to California's crackdown on wealthy car owners using Montana plates to dodge taxes on exotic cars. Zuckerman breaks down the charges: conspiracy, perjury, money laundering. The new 2026 Porsche 911 Turbo S gets its moment too. Hybrid powertrain, 2 second 0-60. It's making the GT3 look like a lifestyle choice instead of a performance one. Porsche also confirms a new $2-3 million halo car, and Spike reminds everyone he called it first. Brian Finster from Sotheby's Motorsport joins to explain how their 24/7 online auction platform works, and what a Python Green 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet looks like when it's ready to go live. The show closes with a deeply weird and very funny detour into funeral home mix-up stories.

Spike, Zuckerman, and Jonny review the new Subaru Uncharted EV and the insane 831hp Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance.

Jonny Lieberman then goes deep on the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance: 831hp, 1021 lb-ft of torque, 0-60 in 2.4 seconds, and a whole 1 mile of electric range. They debate whether it looks good. The verdict is complicated. The hosts also weigh in on LA's incoming 125 speed cameras, Nantucket's surprisingly drug-heavy wastewater, and a product called the "D**k Laser" that somehow gets a full design consultation. The main event: Agent Sebastian from Cart Narcs sits down to explain how a simple question about shopping cart laziness turned into a viral empire. They review clips of people threatening lawsuits, dropping racial slurs from an Audi R8, and one guy in Texas going full unhinged over a cart. Spoiler: one of them works for Jimmy Kimmel. Plus, Spike is deputized as a Cart Narc and heads to Costco to accost the lazybones of L.A. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - 2026 Subaru Uncharted EV review 10:10 - Lasers 17:16 - 2026 Mercedes AMG GT 63 S E Performance review 22:09 - 2026 Ineos Grenadier 31:42 - Traffic cameras 40:44 - Introducing the Cart Narc 42:10 - How Cart Narcs started 46:48 - Getting into fights 49:31 - Reacting to Cart Narcs videos 1:03:20 - Spike goes out on patrol Learn more about your ad choices.
