Best In Class

#79 The German’s wurst Chrysler Crossfire

For one fine moment, you could walk into a Chrysler dealership and pick between a PT Cruiser, a Dodge Magnum, and a Chrysler Crossfire. During this halcyon day of the Pentastar brand, Germany was calling the shots in the form of now-owners Daimler-Benz. The Crossfire was the first product of this German-American marriage, and boy was it a doozy.

#78 Live like Gatsby Duesenberg

Adam is back from his Vacation, and Steve is obviously upset. A perfect time to cover the original American supercar, the arguable cause of the Great Depression, and the most expensive pre-war car ever to be sold. Of course we can only be referring to Duesenberg! Which of these 1920's monsters is the Best in Class, and is Steve's Ferrari really slower than one?

#77 The store brand cereal Nissan Sentra (With guest host Erika filling in for Adam)

Guest host Erika Canfijn sits in for Adam (as he takes a well-deserved vacation) and joins Steve to discuss the other Camry, the not-quite-Accord, the fabulous Nissan Sentra. If you haven't owned one, you've ridden in one. But is it any good? And which is the best? All that and more on this week's Best in Class.

#76 The fast and fiberglass Devin (with special guest Read)

If you haven't heard of Devin, you're not the only one. This extremely rare manufacturer of cars - some say kit cars - only survived a few years and didn't make a lot of headlines. But in those scant years, they racked up enough wins on the race track to create a legend and pique the interest of our guest today. Reed will take us through what a Devin is, what makes it special, and why his is Best in Class.

#75 The PT loser PT Cruiser

Is the Chrysler PT Cruiser peak 2000's automotive design, or one of the worst automotive designs? Can't it be both? It's our 75th episode and to celebrate we are delving into this boomer favorite wagon to see if there's any version worth getting. Spoiler alert - there is not.

#74 The supercar killer Nissan GT-R

1969 brought the venerable Nissan Skyline GT-R to life, but it took another 30 years and a video game to catapult the car nicknamed Godzilla from local Japanese acclaim to worldwide recognition and desire. So which of the 5 generations is the best GT-R? And how ridiculous will Steve look getting out of one? That's this week on Best in Class.

#73 The small but mighty Chevy Nova

The Chevrolet Nova started life as a simple trim level, but graduated to it's own car before turning into a badge engineered Japanese-American hybrid. With that kind of tortured past, was it ever any good? And is the Nova just an also-ran to the Camaro and Mustang? And did Steve's Ferrari ever get fixed? All this and more on today's episode.

#72 The almost as good Porsche Cayman(with special guest Derek)

The Porsche Cayman is only for those that can't afford a 911. But that said, which one is the best one if that is all you can buy? We roped in current owner Derek to walk us through the OTHER poor man's Porsche to tell us why we should consider the Cayman, and whether or not he can get Adam to admit that it is kind of good.

#71 The thunder down under Holden Ute

Utes (or utility vehicles) are almost a meme of Australian car culture. They survived there - and only there - from the 1950's up to a few years ago, while the US only got the El Camino and the Ranchero car-trucks. So what made the Aussie's love their Utes so much? And how do we get one here in America? All that and more on this week's Best in Class.

#70 The last of the breed BMW M2 (with special guest Charlie)

The BMW M2 has been described as the most basic BMW M car available today. It has also been described as the most fun. Coincidence? We think not. And joining Steve and Adam in that opinion today is the brand new owner of a BMW M2 Competition, Charlie! He's going to tell our hosts why they are oh-so-wrong to pick anything else over an M2.
