#92 The fast and fiery Pontiac Fiero

Best In Class ·

2023/01/09

The Pontiac Fiero has a rich and storied history as a terrible car that is most famous for being the base of numerous questionable kit cars. But is that sordid reputation deserved? Was the Fiero ever a good car? And can Adam talk Steve into ditching his Ferrari for a replica? All that and more on this week's Best in Class.

Best In Class ·

2022/12/19

Let's get this out of the way upfront - The Dino 206 is not a Ferrari. It's a Dino. Enzo refused to call it a Ferrari, and Steve won't ever let us argue with Enzo, so we won't call it one here. But is the almost Ferrari any good? Well, we got a perspective owner to chip in on this one and let us know what's so special about this sub-brand car.

#90 The Indian Model T Hindustand Ambassador

Best In Class ·

2022/12/12

The Hindustand Ambassador has been called "the wheels of India" and has served as transport for taxi riders and Prime Ministers. It lasted for five decades and was based on 1940's British technology. Sounds like a sure-fire hit! But which one is best? And will Steve trade in his car for one? That's this week on Best in Class.

Best In Class ·

2022/12/05

The Delorean DMC-12 had such a tumultuous life that whole movies and books have been written about it's short two year life. But beyond all the drama and rumors, are the cars any good? Is it possible to get away from the Back to the Future references? And is there a Ferrari connection Steve can talk about? To get the answers to these questions, we enlisted current owner Geoff and then just heckled him. It's a good time!

#88 The acid tripping VW Bus (with special guest Sean)

Best In Class ·

2022/11/14

The VW Type 2, or bus, is an icon around the world. Over 6 generations, it has sold millions of examples and been the ride of choice for everyone from hippies to terrorists. But which one is the best of the best? To help us find out, we enlisted an actual expert and owner to sort through this vehicle's 70 year history. What will Steve, Adam, and Sean pick as their Best in Class?

#87 The fast and infuriating Mazda RX-7

Best In Class ·

2022/11/07

Ah the Mazda RX-7. Too strange to live, too rare to die. Adam owned an RX-7 when he was way too young to appreciate it, too dumb to fix it, and too poor to keep it for long. Ignoring that he bought one, are they any good at all? Is there a single model in the three generations that won't leave you stranded on the side of the road? All that and more on today's Best in Class.

#86 The absolute worst Ferrari Mondial (with special...

Best In Class ·

2022/10/31

The Ferrari Mondial has been described as the cheapest way into a Ferrari, the ugly duckling, and worse than the car it replaced. And those are all true. But it was also Ferrari's best seller at the time. So what is going on here? This week we've enlisted current Mondial owner Dave to help us understand the least-loved Ferrari and perhaps gain some appreciation for it. Or perhaps not.

Best In Class ·

2022/10/24

We've finally come to the last car in Adam's fleet - the venerable BMW 2002. And yet, Steve conveniently couldn't make it this week so our special guest turned into a guest host! Matt will help us get down into what the best BMW 2002 of all time is, as well as making fun of Steve since he's not here to fight back...

Best In Class ·

2022/10/17

The International Harvester Scout was arguably the first American SUV ever made. The model also only lasted 20 years before the whole company went out of business. So if it wasn't good enough to save the company, is the car any good? And which one is the best one? We've enlisted guest host Rashod to help us sort it out this week.

#83 The ”it’s a car” Toyota Yaris

Best In Class ·

2022/10/10

The Toyota Yaris was basic transportation for millions of people, and that it about it. Or is it? Are there any redeeming features to this cheap-as-chips vehicle? And why are we talking about it right after Diablo? What the hell? We'll try to answer that this week.

#82 The Chryslerfied Lamborghini Diablo

Best In Class ·

2022/10/03

If you had a car poster on your wall in the 90's, the odds are you had an extra large one of the Lamborghini Diablo. If you didn't have any posters, you certainly "drove" a Diablo in Need for Speed or Cruisin' USA. It was a car of the moment in the Clinton years. But what about today? Could it be used around town without falling apart after 30 years? Steve and Adam are on the case today.

#81 The lost in time Morgan

Best In Class ·

2022/09/26

The Morgan Motor Car company started in 1909, and hasn't changed so much as a light bulb since then. Their cars are still handmade, quite weird, and built out of wood. They are truly a automotive basketcase. But hey, it's Steve's birthday so we'll cover them anyway...

#80 The anti-charity Ferrari Purosangue

Best In Class ·

2022/09/19

Ferrari has come out with their first 4-door, AND their first SUV. Although they won't call it an SUV. And two of doors open backward. And the order books are already full. But beyond all those quibbles, it's big news! Adam and Steve have poured over all the official information, unofficial leaks, and pure rumor to give you our first episode on a car that we haven't even seen yet. What could go wrong?

#79 The German’s wurst Chrysler Crossfire

Best In Class ·

2022/09/12

For one fine moment, you could walk into a Chrysler dealership and pick between a PT Cruiser, a Dodge Magnum, and a Chrysler Crossfire. During this halcyon day of the Pentastar brand, Germany was calling the shots in the form of now-owners Daimler-Benz. The Crossfire was the first product of this German-American marriage, and boy was it a doozy.

#78 Live like Gatsby Duesenberg

Best In Class ·

2022/08/30

Adam is back from his Vacation, and Steve is obviously upset. A perfect time to cover the original American supercar, the arguable cause of the Great Depression, and the most expensive pre-war car ever to be sold. Of course we can only be referring to Duesenberg! Which of these 1920's monsters is the Best in Class, and is Steve's Ferrari really slower than one?

Best In Class ·

2022/08/22

Guest host Erika Canfijn sits in for Adam (as he takes a well-deserved vacation) and joins Steve to discuss the other Camry, the not-quite-Accord, the fabulous Nissan Sentra. If you haven't owned one, you've ridden in one. But is it any good? And which is the best? All that and more on this week's Best in Class.

Best In Class ·

2022/08/15

If you haven't heard of Devin, you're not the only one. This extremely rare manufacturer of cars - some say kit cars - only survived a few years and didn't make a lot of headlines. But in those scant years, they racked up enough wins on the race track to create a legend and pique the interest of our guest today. Reed will take us through what a Devin is, what makes it special, and why his is Best in Class.

#75 The PT loser PT Cruiser

Best In Class ·

2022/08/08

Is the Chrysler PT Cruiser peak 2000's automotive design, or one of the worst automotive designs? Can't it be both? It's our 75th episode and to celebrate we are delving into this boomer favorite wagon to see if there's any version worth getting. Spoiler alert - there is not.

#74 The supercar killer Nissan GT-R

Best In Class ·

2022/08/01

1969 brought the venerable Nissan Skyline GT-R to life, but it took another 30 years and a video game to catapult the car nicknamed Godzilla from local Japanese acclaim to worldwide recognition and desire. So which of the 5 generations is the best GT-R? And how ridiculous will Steve look getting out of one? That's this week on Best in Class.

#73 The small but mighty Chevy Nova

Best In Class ·

2022/07/25

The Chevrolet Nova started life as a simple trim level, but graduated to it's own car before turning into a badge engineered Japanese-American hybrid. With that kind of tortured past, was it ever any good? And is the Nova just an also-ran to the Camaro and Mustang? And did Steve's Ferrari ever get fixed? All this and more on today's episode.
