Spike's Car Radio

Spike and the crew cover Gerry McGovern's messy exit from Jaguar, a deep dive into the Toyota 4Runner Trailhunter, and Porsche's wild new shifter patent, before Ford CEO Jim Farley comes on to talk F1 and the Mustang Dark Horse SC. ______________________________________________ 📻 Listen to DRIVE with Jim Farley Check out the new season of the Ford CEO's car podcast! https://lnk.to/drivewithjimfarleyPS!spikescarradio 🍱 Factor - Make Healthier Eating Easy Get 50% off your first Factor box PLUS free breakfast for one year with code SPIKE91150OFF https://factormeals.com/spike91150off 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com 🔵 BlueChew - Get Bricked Up with BlueChew Gold Try it for 10% off with code SPIKE911 https://BlueChew.com 📅 Odoo - Modern Management Made Simple All your business on one platform.

The SCR Garage is selling their rare Zagato to fund the next project, and we find out that Kramer's car on Seinfeld was one of the first production vehicles with a working airbag. Ford CEO Jim Farley is one of the most car-obsessed executives in the industry, and it shows. He breaks down why Ford partnered with Red Bull for their F1 power unit, what tech actually transfers from the track to your driveway, and why Formula 1's growth isn't slowing down anytime soon. Farley also gets into IndyCar's uphill battle, the 2026 Mustang Dark Horse SC, Ford's all-hybrid and EREV future, and his personally-delivered black Ford Explorer to Pope Leo. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Alfa Romeo-Gate 01:33 - Jaguar's PR keeps getting worse 04:46 - We're selling the Zagato? 10:12 - Kramer's car from Seinfeld 16:08 - Porsche's manual AND auto gearbox patent 23:51 - Toyota 4Runner Trailhunter review 34:05 - Robot malfunction fails 40:10 - Introducing Ford CEO Jim Farley 40:37 - Ford in F1 43:42 - IndyCar 44:59 - Pope Leo's Ford Explorer 48:32 - Ford Mustang Dark Horse SC 54:59 - Are EVs in America dead?

Spike and Zuckerman hold down the garage, while Jonny is lost somewhere in Austin. Zuckerman rolls in a pristine 1968 Alfa Romeo GT Junior (factory plastic still on the seats) and Brian Finster from Sotheby's Motorsport stops by to talk high-end online car auctions. Also on the docket: California's Montana car registration tax evasion crackdown, the new Porsche 911 Turbo S putting GT3 buyers in an existential crisis, and somehow... funeral home horror stories. ______________________________________________ 🚘 Sotheby's Motorsport - High-end, Luxury & Rare Car Auctions Bid on the Python Green 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cab! https://sothebysmotorsport.com/auction/2021-porsche-911turboscabriolet-9192 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com 🛞 Vredestein - Car, SUV, Van, and Light Truck Tires Demand a better tire.

Paul Zuckerman brings in a stunning 1968 Alfa Romeo GT Junio: Bluette paint, Cinghiale interior, flying buttress seats, and yes, the original factory plastic still intact. The big debate: do you peel it or leave it? The guys pivot to California's crackdown on wealthy car owners using Montana plates to dodge taxes on exotic cars. Zuckerman breaks down the charges: conspiracy, perjury, money laundering. The new 2026 Porsche 911 Turbo S gets its moment too. Hybrid powertrain, 2 second 0-60. It's making the GT3 look like a lifestyle choice instead of a performance one. Porsche also confirms a new $2-3 million halo car, and Spike reminds everyone he called it first. Brian Finster from Sotheby's Motorsport joins to explain how their 24/7 online auction platform works, and what a Python Green 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet looks like when it's ready to go live. The show closes with a deeply weird and very funny detour into funeral home mix-up stories. Standard stuff. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Spike at Indian Wells 04:21 - 1968 Alfa Romeo GT Junior showcase 15:55 - California Montana license plate crackdown 19:55 - 2026 Porsche 911 Turbo S tested 22:35 - Porsche halo car update 24:19 - Waymo bird hijinks 26:30 - Man scammed by mechanic training Porsche 30:09 - Hyundai IONIQ 5 N review 38:48 - Sotheby's Motorsport 43:41 - 2021 Nissan GT-R T-Spec 46:18 - Alfa Romeo 1900 CSS Touring 49:13 - 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cab showcase Learn more about your ad choices.

Jonny recounts getting rained on while watching a GT40 take storm damage, and somehow ended up in a headlock from a drunk British attendee. On the automotive news front: a Carrera GT sells BIG at auction, Estonian gangs are running a center-lock wheel theft operation in Berlin, a Waymo blocked paramedics in Austin, and Donut Labs to have cracked solid-state batteries for EVs. Then actor James Marsden joins the crew to discuss his role as the President on Hulu's Paradise, Your Friends & Neighbors, and his upcoming project with Vince Vaughn. Plus, James' 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera Black Edition gets restored by Spike and crew. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - ModaMiami monsoon disaster 06:40 - Porsche Carrera GT sells for $3 MILLION 08:39- Jonny got attacked 16:52 - Center lock wheel gangs 20:06 - Waymo blocks police after Austin shooting 21:26 - This battery will REVOLUTIONIZE the EV market 24:43 - 2025 Mercedes-AMG G 63 G-Wagen 30:32 - Porsche's secret hypercar leaks 35:13 - FAT Ice Race 36:05 - Introducing James Marsden 37:11 - Playing the president 39:42 - The cars of Your Friends & Neighbors 45:39 - Learning stunts with Vince Vaughn 49:13 - James' 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera Black Edition 54:59 - Racing Miatas Learn more about your ad choices.

Magnus Walker returns to the garage to discuss his massive upcoming no-reserve Porsche auction with RM Sotheby's. Magnus reflects on the 'Urban Outlaw' journey and why he's finally ready to let go of 18 cars and over 100 lots of memorabilia. Spike and Zuckerman get a first-hand look at the cars crossing the block, including a 2002 911 GT2, a rare modified 1976 Carrera, and one of the first 911s ever made. Plus, Magnus gives a live walkthrough of the 1967 911S currently sitting in the studio. ______________________________________________ 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com PORSCHE PLÁTICA - The Ultimate 911 R Celebration Come to the gathering in Knoxville on May 3rd! https://porsche-platica.com 🪙 Acre Gold - Gold Investment Has Never Been Easier Visit https://GetAcreGold.com/SPIKE911 to start building your gold stash! 🛏️ Brooklyn Bedding - Premium Affordable Mattresses Get 30% off all products with code SPIKE https://brooklynbedding.com GRAB SOME SCR MERCH: https://spikescarradio.com GET MORE SCR ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/spikescarradio ______________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Introducing Magnus Walker 01:35 - Curating a car collection 06:45 - The right way to collect cars 07:50 - Magnus's car auction 09:59 - 1974 911 Flat-Nose Widebody conversion 11:53 - The rarest Porsche 911 Carrera ever 14:42 - One of the first 911s ever made 20:45 - Magnus's 1967 Porsche 911 S 27:16 - Old school Porsche collectors 34:45 - Tennis 41:39 - Bentley 44:19 - 2014 991 Turbo S 46:23 - Investing in cars 47:27 - Worst car mods 48:21 - Deciding what cars to sell Learn more about your ad choices.

Spike, Zuckerman, and Jonny review the new Subaru Uncharted EV and the insane 831hp Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance. Then, Agent Sebastian from Cart Narcs stops by to break down his viral confrontations, the legal gray zones, and what happens when people lose their minds over a shopping cart. ______________________________________________ WATCH THE FULL PATROL WITH AGENT SEBASTIAN: https://www.patreon.com/spikescarradio 🍱 Factor - Make Healthier Eating Easy Get 50% off your first Factor box PLUS free breakfast for one year with code SPIKE91150OFF https://factormeals.com/spike91150off 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com 🔵 BlueChew - Get Bricked Up with BlueChew Gold Try it for 10% off with code SPIKE911 https://BlueChew.com 📅 Odoo - Modern Management Made Simple All your business on one platform. Try it at https://www.odoo.com ______________________________________________ This week on Spike's Car Radio, Spike claims to be the first person outside of Subaru's bubble to drive the new Uncharted EV — 338 horsepower, off-road modes, and a starting price of $46K. Jonny Lieberman then goes deep on the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance: 831hp, 1021 lb-ft of torque, 0-60 in 2.4 seconds, and a whole 1 mile of electric range. They debate whether it looks good. The verdict is complicated. The hosts also weigh in on LA's incoming 125 speed cameras, Nantucket's surprisingly drug-heavy wastewater, and a product called the "D**k Laser" that somehow gets a full design consultation. The main event: Agent Sebastian from Cart Narcs sits down to explain how a simple question about shopping cart laziness turned into a viral empire. They review clips of people threatening lawsuits, dropping racial slurs from an Audi R8, and one guy in Texas going full unhinged over a cart. Spoiler: one of them works for Jimmy Kimmel. Plus, Spike is deputized as a Cart Narc and heads to Costco to accost the lazybones of L.A. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - 2026 Subaru Uncharted EV review 10:10 - Lasers 17:16 - 2026 Mercedes AMG GT 63 S E Performance review 22:09 - 2026 Ineos Grenadier 31:42 - Traffic cameras 40:44 - Introducing the Cart Narc 42:10 - How Cart Narcs started 46:48 - Getting into fights 49:31 - Reacting to Cart Narcs videos 1:03:20 - Spike goes out on patrol Learn more about your ad choices.
