Car Shows and the Free Mercedes

Matt Farah and Zack Klapman attended the reveal of the new, possibly light(er)-weight RTR Mustang; were part of the HUGE turnout for the Type S / Larry Chen car show in Long Beach; Matt talks about the old-yet-free Mercedes he got and what he plans to do with it; Zack describes his week with the Infinite Machine P1 electric scooter; and they answer Patreon questions including:

  • Should I get a sports car even if all the roads are boring?
  • Which auto journalists have changed your opinion on a car?
  • Any plans to review the Honda Passport Trailsport?
  • Should I get dedicated summer tires or a performance all-season?
  • What's a "buy once, keep forever" watch for my dad?
  • Countach vs Countach video with Doug Demuro?
  • Is the BRZ tS worth it over the BRZ Premium?
  • I need a long-distance commuter
  • Is the 981 Boxster/Cayman the best Porsche value?
  • What's your perfect "cigar car"?
  • You are president: what would your limo be?
  • And more!
