About this episode
This week’s episode of Full Throttle Talk is a car enthusiast rollercoaster—equal parts serious debate, sarcastic banter, and auction insanity. If you’ve ever wondered whether you should blow your budget on a brand-new Porsche 911 Turbo S or roll the dice on a Ferrari 296 GTB , this episode is for you. We’re talking weekend toys, extra cars, and the real questions that matter : do you want German precision with a warranty, or Italian drama with curves that melt your soul? But that’s just the starting line. We also tear into: Porsche’s Strategic Realignment – The new PHEV Macan , whispers of a budget sports car under $75K, and why the BEV 718 “will suck so hard.” Are Porsche dealers panicking behind the curtain? Youngtimers vs Oldtimers – Why ‘90s and 2000s cars (your old Gran Turismo heroes) are skyrocketing while 356s and non-special ‘70s 911s sit flat. We predict the next wave of collectibles and argue about demographics, wealth transfer, and nostalgia. Choosing your weekend car wisely – 964 RS, 993 C2S, 997 Club Sport, Ferrari 296 GTB, or a modern 911 Turbo. What really fits your lifestyle, roads, budget, and sanity? Collector Car Auctions – From legendary Porsche 904s and Ferrari race cars to utterly ridiculous sales like the Wagon Queen Family Truckster and a Yugo Cabrio. Yes, people actually pay real money for this stuff. Pop Quizzes & Debates – What was the hottest car of 2025? What’s the “It Girl” of 2026? 997 GT3 RS 4.0 vs Singer Classic. Favorite old features that should return (spoiler: everyone wants pop-up headlights back). And of course, the crew shares real car life updates : Teaching friends how to wrangle a Ferrari 296 GTS on carbon fiber wheels. Backroad adventures in the Swedish Sled. Upgrades that transform clutch feel. Shakedown runs ahead of Targa Carolina in an air-cooled 911 with fresh electric A/C. If you love Porsche vs Ferrari debates, car auction madness, and brutally honest takes on the future of collector cars , this is your show. Subscribe, share, and join the conversation. We don’t do boring—we do uncensored, sarcastic, opinionated car talk the way it should be.
