Thoroughbred Sportscar
We are back for episode 186 (though we say it’s 187, it’s not)!
After usual bollocks, we talk about – and Mitch rants about – Subaru releasing a dual-cab ute called the Brumby, and seems like it’ll be based on the Toyota Hilux.

Fit And Not Finished
This is probably our most left-of-field start to an episode ever...
Joseph somewhat kicks off the news - what there is of it - this week with news about the Porsche GT3 RS (ps. we never came back around to Mitch's Porsche pick, we're not very good at our jerbs), and then Matt clarifies the Subaru Impreza/WRX/STi breakups.
We then suggest what car Joseph should get to be a new daily driver, as the 86 is becoming a little too racecar for daily driver duties anymore.
Matt then talks about the Mk8 Golf R Wagon, and Joseph talks about the new Subaru Levorg, and an Amarok/Ranger based Land Rover Defender, and then we argue semantics.
We then talk about the GR Camry, which we really like, and a Tesla Model 2, and the concept Mazda 6.

Diesel Grunt Gets The Hmmmmmm
Late again. My bad, my bad.
Matt isn't with us this week, but in his absence, we still managed to smash out a banger of an episode for your earholes.
After some bollocks, Mitch kicks off the news with a bit more leakage from the Toyota marque around the 300 Series LandCruiser... And sadly, it does seem like the next Cruiser will have a 3.5L-hybrid V6 twin-turbo petrol, and potentially a 3.3L V6 turbo diesel... From which we talk about how it's time to move on from the 2JZ.
Then we briefly talk about Holden having ZERO sales for January 2021.
Joseph then talks news from across the pond, the new Cadillac CT4-V and CT5-V Blackwing.
We then talk about the rumours and lazy renders surrounding the 5th-gen WRX due in Australia in 2022 with the FA24DIT, and the ven more lazy rumours surrounding the Nissan 400Z.
Then we talk about the next-generation Mercedes-AMG C63.... Which will have a spooly-boi 2.0L 4-banger from the A45S, plus a hybrid system, from which we then talk about Diesel's continued popularity in Australia, and then we end on general nonsense and a discussion on gearing.

We kick off the news this week with Joseph talking about the apparently 'new' Jeep Grand Cherokee, which looks a helluva lot like the old Grand Cherokee.
Mitch then talks about FCA and PSA making it Facebook Official and forming a new group 'Stellantis'.
Matt then talks about how 66% of Ford Australia's sales is the Ranger, which is causing some concern within the ranks of Ford Australia as the next Ranger is a shared platform with the Volkswagen Amarok, from which we talk about the Ford Bronco not coming to RHD markets and 'Murican "trucks".
Mitch then talks about Lada bringing out a new Niva, while still selling the OG Niva, and BMW coming out with their first 'M' electric car, the i4 M, and the Mustang will more-than-likely only be offered with an electric drivetrain by the end of the decade, but the next-generation Mustang due in 2023 might get a new 6.8L V8, and Hyundai ending all development on new diesel engines.
We then talk about how a little while ago we asked for negative reviews, and we got one!
Mitch then talks about what he's done to the Prado and the Hilux, before Joseph and Matt talk about what they've done to Joseph GT86.

Grease Up The Nipple
This week, it's just Mitch, Joseph and Joel. We start off with talking absolute nonsense before breaking into a bit of news.
The first bit of news we talk about is about the Governor of California signing a bill to ban the sale of Internal Combustion Engines as of 2035, from which all cars will have to be "emission free".

Mitch then reads off a list of 5 uber rare, and uber expensive, classic cars for sale right now in Australia, from which we talk about our love for 80's, 90's, and early 2000's Japanese cars as the new BMW's have far too much technology for their own good.
