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.
