About this episode
In episode 91 of the BaT Podcast, Alex, Randy, and Zac get together with Howard and call themselves "mid"; talk movies and music from this unappreciated year; decide what 1970s pickup qualifies as a sports car; find joy in '70s colors and graphics; buck an engine trend; issue some you-heard-it-here-first car investment advice; make fun of Canadians; agree and disagree on Ferrari rooflines; make unwise choices for daily drivers; deride stock Scirocco wheels; show that one's favorite car and favorite boat can be one and the same; pick unfortunate children's names; skirt the rules in favor of the BMW M1; judge people based on their usernames; and lie about the next One-Year year. We want to know: What five cars are on your list? Why are our picks stupid? What did we forget about in our race to pick perfection? Follow along!
