The conversation shifts to what makes watches cool (or not), with insights about how wearing a Rolex can sometimes put people off. James then unveils his "Cool Cars for Cool Guys in 2026" recommendations, boldly declaring that Ferraris under $100,000 are the new cool while Porsches have lost their edge due to market inflation. The guys analyze a viral video of a California mom using her G-Wagon to ram suspected burglars (Mercedes, take note for your next Super Bowl commercial). Spike delivers a glowing review of the Bentley Bentayga Speed, praising its performance in all conditions and functional luxury. The episode concludes with listener New Year's resolutions and car dreams, including a vintage manual Jaguar story from Netflix's "Unfrosted" set. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: contact@neontiger.media 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media Learn more about your ad choices.
