459: Gordon Murray for President

This week starts the same way most of our conversations do: standing around a motorcycle asking questions nobody should probably act on. Like, if you're stranded in the woods, can you run fork oil in your engine?     From there we dive into the latest Grom upgrades, small bike obsession, and why Honda Monkeys keep attracting the same kind of people that love Volkswagen buses.   Then it's time for Monterey Car Week. We break down the $40 million Ferrari Luce sale, the Gordon Murray S1, McLaren's return to a manual transmission, the newest Lamborghini Revuelto SV, Spyker's comeback, Aston Martin's latest V12 masterpiece, and all the cars that had everyone talking this year.   We also get into why modern supercars seem to be competing in an aerodynamic body-kit arms race, discuss the rumored Bronco pickup, complain about Ford recalls, and somehow end up talking about Canadian drivers, custom license plates, and why a motorcycle might be the ultimate Monterey transportation solution.   Basically: motorcycles, supercars, questionable automotive decisions, and a healthy amount of sarcasm. Business as usual.   The Avants Podcast is brought to you by our friends at STEK USA and Carter Seattle!
