Best In Class

#98 The pretty ugly Porsche Panamera (oops accidental repeat)

The Porsche Panamera just might be the first four door sports car. Not sported-up sedan or sporty saloon, but actual sports car. Purpose built from the ground up to carry four passengers with inhumane speed around corners. So why did it take Porsche so long to come out with it? Which one is the best? And can we get Steve to trade his Ferrari for one?

#97 The artistically fast BMW race cars (with special guest Ezra)

Steve doesn't believe Adam is any good at being a racing driver, so he's brought in an experienced BMW racer to teach Adam a thing or two, and to discuss which BMW race car was the best of all time. For some reason, Steve is allowed to have an opinion on this, despite never having been to a race track.

#96 The hilariously homely VW Thing (with special guest host Read filling in for Steve)

The VW Thing just might be the weirdest mass-market car ever attempted. Decidedly unattractive - anti-aethestic even - with no creature comforts, and a price the well exceeded the normal Bug. They never caught on, but now they are classics because of their quirks. But are they actually any good? Steve is gone today, so Adam has enlisted VW expert Reed to help sort through the history of the Thing and decide which one is Best in Class.

#95 The spaghetti western Cadillac Allante

The modern world is built on international cooperation and globalization. Cadillac was there first in the early 80's when they came out with the Allante. Proudly built over two continents, this was supposed to keep Cadillac on top of the luxury market for another decade. Instead, it was another nail in the coffin of Cadillac's demise. And we're here to detail every precarious step.

#94 The betta getta Jetta

The Volkswagen Jetta is widely regarded as the big brother of the fun, plucky Golf - and with good reason because it's true! The Jetta was originally just a Golf with a trunk. But is it actually any good, and are there any generations worth getting? Adam and Steve are on the case to try to liven up this very boring car!

#93 The good to be bad Jaguar F-Type (Adam’s last podcast again?)

Jaguar famously leaned into their bad-boy reputation with the "Good to be Bad" advertising campaign featuring famous British movie villains shilling for the new F-Type. So is the F-Type a car only fit for a sociopath, or can you enjoy one too? And which is the best one for the professional race car driver? That's this week on Best in Class.

#92 The fast and fiery Pontiac Fiero

The Pontiac Fiero has a rich and storied history as a terrible car that is most famous for being the base of numerous questionable kit cars. But is that sordid reputation deserved? Was the Fiero ever a good car? And can Adam talk Steve into ditching his Ferrari for a replica? All that and more on this week's Best in Class.

#91 The not quite a Ferrari Dino (with special guest Jacob)

Let's get this out of the way upfront - The Dino 206 is not a Ferrari. It's a Dino. Enzo refused to call it a Ferrari, and Steve won't ever let us argue with Enzo, so we won't call it one here. But is the almost Ferrari any good? Well, we got a perspective owner to chip in on this one and let us know what's so special about this sub-brand car.

#90 The Indian Model T Hindustand Ambassador

The Hindustand Ambassador has been called "the wheels of India" and has served as transport for taxi riders and Prime Ministers. It lasted for five decades and was based on 1940's British technology. Sounds like a sure-fire hit! But which one is best? And will Steve trade in his car for one? That's this week on Best in Class.

#89 The stuck in time Delorean (with special guest Geoff)

The Delorean DMC-12 had such a tumultuous life that whole movies and books have been written about it's short two year life. But beyond all the drama and rumors, are the cars any good? Is it possible to get away from the Back to the Future references? And is there a Ferrari connection Steve can talk about? To get the answers to these questions, we enlisted current owner Geoff and then just heckled him. It's a good time!
