Best In Class

#138 The not-quite corner office BMW 5-Series (with special guest Simon)

You got yourself a BMW 5-Series. Congratulations. Shame you didn't work just a little bit harder so you could afford the big boy 7-Series. Oh well, someone has to file all that paperwork and fill out the PowerPoint slides. But at least you bought the right 5-Series by following Best in Class's recommendations, right?

#137 The remarkably unreliable Land Rover Discovery

The Land Rover Discovery - or Disco to the fans - was an attempt to move downmarket and get more people into the British car brand. Many people bought them, but then they too learned just how unreliable Land Rovers are. So the plan worked, I guess? This week Steve and Adam explore the history of the car Adam just acquired for $2000, and find out just how big of a mistake he made.

#136 The best car from 1974 (asking for a friend...)

One of our loyal listeners is turning 50, and as such she asked us to help her pick out a fun car to buy for her birthday. The catch? It also has to be 50 years old. So Steve and Adam went on the hunt for the best car from 1974! The results, as you would expect, were mixed.

#135 Adam bought another car! (with special guest Diego)

It's been too long since Adam has been to the DMV, so to correct that he went out and bought a car today! The only way to find out just what a heap of rust it is (or isn't) is to listen to this week's Best in Class!

#134 The best Henrik Fisker-designed car

Henrik Fisker is responsible for some of the most beautiful cars of the last 30 years. He's an entrepreneur and electric car enthusiast, but also a serial failure who has seen the inside of many courtrooms. So is he an automotive huckster, or a misunderstood genius? We'll find out this week on Best in Class.

#133 The Adam-esque Lamborghini Jalpa

The Lamborghini Jalpa was completely overshadowed by its big brother the Countach, but this hard-charging bull deserved better than that. At the very least, it was faster, better, and prettier than its direct rival - Steve's Ferrari 308. So if this car is so good, why haven't you heard of it? And is there a best version?

#132 The best cars coming in 2024

It's the beginning of a new year, so it's time for us to come back from our month vacation, debut a new recording system, and tell you gentle listeners what fun cars are coming this year!

#131 The underapreciated Honda Prelude

The Honda Prelude looked like a million bucks, but unfortunately only went like thirty bucks. This parts-bin special sports car debuted several new technologies and even humbled supercars in some tests. So it must be kinda good, but which is the best? And will Adam trade his motorcycle for one? That's this week on Best in Class.

#130 The best taxi in the world

We've all been in taxis. If sitcom TV is to be believed, half of us were born in the backseat of one during a storm/traffic jam/zany adventure. And every city, country, and culture has it's own version of the for-hire car. But which one is the absolute best? And do they all smell like a wet junkyard cat?

#129 The Swedish supermeatball Koenigsegg (Part 2)

Koenigsegg is the only Swedish car company that doesn't make safe cars. It also makes cars that go 250+ mph. And their wares cost more than $1 million each. It's the best Swedish supercar maker there is! And the only one! Today in Part 2 we explore the cars of Koenigsegg and which one is Best in Class for your lifestyle needs.
