• Thanksgiving Special! Air-Cooled Porsche Picks, Porsche News, GMA S1 LM $20M Sale & How to Love the Cars You Own

  🦃 Happy Thanksgiving, FTT Crew! This week’s Full Throttle Talk is a holiday feast of Porsche news, wild shop stories, a $20.6M GMA S1 LM sale, a listener question that gets painfully honest (“How do you stay happy with the cars you own?”), AND our Air-Cooled Porsche “This or That” under $150K. This is the perfect Thanksgiving episode: equal parts gratitude, chaos, and questionable financial decisions. 🔧 Segment #1: What We Did in Cars This Week Tim takes a Ferrari 296 GT3 from 20th → 2nd at Mid-Ohio (sim). Paul returns to driving post-surgery with La Tortuga + a Gulf Blue ’74. Casey bonds with the 911. David revives a battered 911 dubbed “Panda,” sells it, then discovers a pre-delivery transmission surprise. Moral: Don’t buy sight-unseen. Ever. 📰 Segment #2: Automotive News Porsche Sonderwunsch Cayenne drama (designer hot take inside). GMA S1 LM sells for $20.6M. VW’s “Azul” Magic Bus returns after the Palisades fires. Alpina B8 deep-dive by Hagerty. Hyundai’s new Magma Concept—big vibes, big questions. 💭 Listener Question: “How do you stay happy with the cars you own?” We get real about fizz, purpose, emotional attachment, and the dangerous influence of other enthusiasts. ⚖️ This or That: Two air-cooled Porsches under $150K you'd keep for 5–10 years. Conda Green 911S, America Roadster, Dolphin Grey ’66, Eddie Irvine’s old 930, Aventura Green 993, and more. 👇 Want to be featured? Drop your questions in the comments or DM us on IG.

• V12 Regrets, 911 Turbo Value Hunt & Listener Roast – Full Throttle Talk #39

  Welcome to another wild ride with the FTT crew — if you thought you were just getting car talk, buckle up. This week: “What we did in cars” — because one of us is still obsessing over that Honda Odyssey Type R by Bisimoto Engineering, and another has spent way too much time with a fake “9146 GT.” Auto-news that’ll make your shop feel under-equipped: twin-cam conversions, sports car rumors, and the return of purposeful builds. “I could’ve had a V12” — yes, we’re dragging you into the deep end. Two V12 options (one modern, one vintage) under ~$600K. Flat-12 counts. W12s? Nope. We’re better than that. Turbo911 value raid — The Porsche 911 Turbo S price is off the charts. So we ask: why buy new when there’s garage gold hiding in the back catalog (997.2, 991.1, you’re up)? Listener questions & comments: We’re roasting, praising, and straight-up answering your real-world car dilemmas. This or That: Unlimited budget, one car, limited garage space. Which beast would you pick? Smash that Subscribe, hit the bell, and sign up for our newsletter if you want the behind-the-scenes + bonus snark (yes, it’s real).

• Porsche Prices, Tesla Track Mayhem & The Myth of the “Investment” Car 💸 | Full Throttle Talk

  This week on Full Throttle Talk, the crew dives headfirst into the world of cars we love, hate, and irrationally justify buying. 🚗 What’s inside:TR2 adventures, MFI vs. Slant Cab showdowns, and 3RS Sunday Service confessions. Tesla goes full kamikaze — drives straight onto a live motorcycle race at Buttonwillow (you can’t make this up). Porsche patents “Tunnel Mode” — because who doesn’t need more drama in their downshifts. Market check: The 2025 Porsche values rollercoaster — 996 GT3s, 987 Boxsters, 964s, and a sleepy ‘73 911S. 🎙️ Listener Questions:→ What’s the best sub-$50k enthusiast car? → Do stock cars sell better than modified ones? → Have Ferrari’s “Speciale” models lost their edge? → Is a track-only car ever worth it? ⚖️ This or That:The under-$100k cars that might actually appreciate (and the ones that definitely won’t). 🔥 The Verdict:Porsche’s market looks strong, Ferrari’s “Speciale” might not be, and Tesla’s still Tesla. 💬 Got a car question, spicy opinion, or listing to roast?DM us on Instagram or visit https://FullThrottleTalk.com to join the crew and get your comment featured in the next episode. 🎧 Listen everywhere:Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon Music 🏁 Subscribe to the free newsletter:https://FullThrottleTalk.com 🚦 CONNECT WITH US Paul Kramer — 714-335-4911 | [email protected] | Instagram/FB: @autokennelCasey Parkin — [email protected] Van Epps — 704-799-7680 | [email protected] | Instagram/FB: @sonderwerksTim Harris — 512-758-0206 (text only) | [email protected]

• Ferrari Speciale vs Porsche GT3 RS: Are We Being Played? | Winter Car Prep, Listener Q&A + More

  This Week on Full Throttle Talk The crew covers everything from Ferrari’s 296 Speciale hype to the age-old question — is Porsche about to copy Ferrari’s “too many trims, too little soul” playbook with the GT cars? 🤔 🚗 This Episode Includes: Fall Driving Diaries → Tim logs 10+ hours in the 718 RS, Speedster, Miata & TR before heading back to PR. Paul goes full RADwood, Casey daily’s the Land Cruiser, and David finally picks up his GT3 RS (but has only driven 40 miles… shame!). Automotive News → Ferrari says the Speciale isn’t a GT3 RS competitor (so what is it?). Honda kills the Civic Type R in Europe — could North America be next? Plus, Toyota’s turbo FJ60 restomod and Porsche’s secret W18 hypercar engine concept. Proper Winter Car Prep → Do you actually need fuel stabilizer, tire bags, dehumidifiers, and Li-ion battery tenders… or should you just slap on winter wheels and drive it? 🎧 Listener Questions (the Good Stuff): • How do you corner an air-cooled 911 without mowing a lawn? • Why Ferrari brakes feel dead vs. Porsche’s PCCBs. • Carrera T vs. horsepower bloat — why “less” really is more. • Is Ferrari’s “Speciale” line just expensive carbon packages now? • Porsche GT3 RS ESC/TC settings for real-world spirited driving. • Which matters more: sound or speed, if regulations kill both? 🔥 This or That: BaT match-ups include a $15K Ford LTD vs. a $16K Anniversary Corvette, Carrera coupe vs. cabrio, RS6 Avant vs. AMG E63 wagon, and even Fiat 500 vs. Messerschmitt. 👉 Full Throttle Talk = Cars, Culture, and Chaos.
