Ferraris are breaking records at Mecum. Porsche fans are arguing about soul vs. specs. And Magnus Walker is sending 150 items — including multiple Porsches — to an upcoming RM Sotheby’s auction. Coincidence, or a signal? This episode of Full Throttle Talk digs into what these stories really mean for modern car culture, collectors, and enthusiasts who still care about driving more than resale. Is Porsche drifting — or simply evolving? And what does Magnus’s auction move really say about where the brand and the culture are headed? We break it down with real-world perspective, not hype.

Project cars promise everything and often deliver regret. In this episode of Full Throttle Talk, they break down real-world project car mistakes, market timing failures, and the truth behind a $301K 1973 Porsche 911 RS Touring auction that did not meet expectations. From personal Porsche project stories to listener questions on values, restorations, and the 2026 collector car market, this episode explores what actually happens when passion meets reality. Full Throttle Talk is built for enthusiasts who care about ownership, not hype.

A street-legal formula car sounds like internet nonsense. Until you meet Caleb Borgstrom. In this episode of Full Throttle Talk, Tim Harris sits down with one of the founders of RYN Motors to tear apart one of the most unreasonable automotive ideas in years — and why it might actually work. This isn’t a concept render. This isn’t a YouTube kit car. This is a real, engineered, road-registrable, formula-style machine built by someone who got tired of being told, “That’s impossible.” In this episode, we get into the uncomfortable questions: Why Caleb refused to accept that formula cars should be track-only The exact moment this went from a sketch to “we’re actually building this” Chassis, suspension, engine, and gearbox decisions nobody agrees on The hardest engineering and regulatory problems — and how they reshaped the car Lap times vs. reliability vs. drivability (something always loses) What “street legal” really means in the real world Who should absolutely NOT buy this car Pricing, customization limits, delivery reality, and long-term support This conversation isn’t marketing fluff. It’s about tradeoffs, consequences, and obsession — the stuff most founders won’t say out loud. If you’re tired of: Overweight supercars Track toys that can’t survive real use “Driver’s cars” built by committees …this episode is for you.

This week on Full Throttle Talk, we kick off the new year with one of our most wide-ranging—and opinionated—episodes yet. We cover the return of legendary roads as The Snake in Malibu reopens after seven years, along with the first real twisty-road shakedown of a rally-prepped air-cooled 911. There’s also a New Year’s Day drive in a Ferrari 296 GTS, where the steering wheel haptics controversy is finally settled. We dig into recent GT3 RS outings, the revival of a 964 C4, and why analog still matters more than ever. In automotive news, we share an FTT exclusive on RYN Motors and ask the question nobody else seems to be asking: can a Formula-style car for the road actually work? We also discuss the rumored return of the Toyota GR MR2 and Arizona’s very real attempt at building its own version of an Autobahn. Looking ahead to 2026, we talk about cars that are actually worth paying attention to, including the Caterham Project V, the Toyota GR MR2, the Corvette C8 ZR1X, and why the Porsche GT2 RS still counts. The 25-year rule takes center stage with newly eligible icons, including the Porsche 996 GT3 RS (EU), Ferrari 550 Barchetta, RUF RTurbo, Renault Clio V6, and Honda Integra Type R (DC5). We also break down what’s really happening in the market, including no-reserve versus no-sale auctions on Bring a Trailer, Speedster values finally waking up, and what’s truly winning—and losing—heading into 2026. Plus listener questions, aftermarket body quality debates, and why details still matter. No hype. No influencer nonsense. Just real car ownership, market insight, and strong opinions.

Welcome back to Full Throttle Talk — the automotive show for people who probably need a financial advisor, a driving coach, and fewer cars bookmarked on Bring a Trailer.

Welcome to another wild ride with the FTT crew — if you thought you were just getting car talk, buckle up. This week: “What we did in cars” — because one of us is still obsessing over that Honda Odyssey Type R by Bisimoto Engineering, and another has spent way too much time with a fake “9146 GT.” Auto-news that’ll make your shop feel under-equipped: twin-cam conversions, sports car rumors, and the return of purposeful builds. “I could’ve had a V12” — yes, we’re dragging you into the deep end. Two V12 options (one modern, one vintage) under ~$600K. Flat-12 counts. W12s? Nope. We’re better than that. Turbo911 value raid — The Porsche 911 Turbo S price is off the charts. So we ask: why buy new when there’s garage gold hiding in the back catalog (997.2, 991.1, you’re up)? Listener questions & comments: We’re roasting, praising, and straight-up answering your real-world car dilemmas. This or That: Unlimited budget, one car, limited garage space.

Porsche patents “Tunnel Mode” — because who doesn’t need more drama in their downshifts. Market check: The 2025 Porsche values rollercoaster — 996 GT3s, 987 Boxsters, 964s, and a sleepy ‘73 911S. 🎙️ Listener Questions:→ What’s the best sub-$50k enthusiast car? → Do stock cars sell better than modified ones? → Have Ferrari’s “Speciale” models lost their edge? → Is a track-only car ever worth it? ⚖️ This or That:The under-$100k cars that might actually appreciate (and the ones that definitely won’t). 🔥 The Verdict:Porsche’s market looks strong, Ferrari’s “Speciale” might not be, and Tesla’s still Tesla. 💬 Got a car question, spicy opinion, or listing to roast?DM us on Instagram or visit https://FullThrottleTalk.com to join the crew and get your comment featured in the next episode. 🎧 Listen everywhere:Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon Music 🏁 Subscribe to the free newsletter:https://FullThrottleTalk.com 🚦 CONNECT WITH US Paul Kramer — 714-335-4911 | [email protected] | Instagram/FB: @autokennelCasey Parkin — [email protected] Van Epps — 704-799-7680 | [email protected] | Instagram/FB: @sonderwerksTim Harris — 512-758-0206 (text only) | [email protected]

This Week on Full Throttle Talk The crew covers everything from Ferrari’s 296 Speciale hype to the age-old question — is Porsche about to copy Ferrari’s “too many trims, too little soul” playbook with the GT cars? 🤔 🚗 This Episode Includes: Fall Driving Diaries → Tim logs 10+ hours in the 718 RS, Speedster, Miata & TR before heading back to PR.

Plus, Toyota’s turbo FJ60 restomod and Porsche’s secret W18 hypercar engine concept.

Welcome back to Full Throttle Talk! In this episode we cover Luft 11, the world’s most unique Porsche gathering—part car show, part cult, and pure heaven for air-cooled Porsche fans. If you’ve ever wondered what makes Luft so different from every other automotive event, this is your insider take. We also dive into wheels: forged vs cast, carbon fiber vs magnesium. What’s actually worth your money? How long do carbon fiber wheels really last? Should you ever trust old mag wheels? If you’ve debated Fuchs vs modern aftermarket, this is for you. Next, we get controversial: real vs fake Ferraris. What actually makes a classic car “real”? VIN tags, logbooks, or originality? We dissected the Bring a Trailer Ferrari 212 listing that sparked the debate. Other topics include: Luft 11 highlights from Porsche nerds who’ve been to almost every Luft event. Mazda Miata factory restorations and the new Toyota + Mazda sports car collab. Lucid EV sales jump and whether the new EV 781 will flop or succeed. This or That: Porsches vs Ferraris, wagons vs sedans, and more. Plus, our brand-new Pop Quiz segment—test your car nerd knowledge with us. Whether you’re into Porsche 911s, Ferrari history, wheel tech, or EV drama, this episode has something for every true car enthusiast.  Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more Porsche, Ferrari, and collector car talk every week! 🤝 Connect with the Hosts Paul Kramer — 📞 714-335-4911 | 📧 [email protected] | 📱 IG/FB: @autokennelCasey Parkin — 📧 [email protected] Van Epps — 📞 704-799-7680 | 📧 [email protected] | 📱 IG/FB: @sonderwerksTim Harris — 📞 512-758-0206 (text only) | 📧 [email protected]
