from Spike's Car Radio · host Spike Feresten
Spike sits down with James Pumphrey from Speeed to cover everything from a $3,000 VW Golf project car to a $2.1 million gold plated Iron Man-themed 840HP Turbo Speedster. Plus: the 911 GT3 SC, 911 GT4, watchmaking in Geneva, and a live engine start in the SCR Garage. ______________________________________________ 🫧 Meguiar's - 125 Years of Passion Premium products to clean, restore, and protect your vehicle https://meguiarsdirect.com/collections/new 💧 Pocket Hose - The #1 Expanding Hose in the World Text SPIKE to 64000 to get a FREE Pocket Pivot and 10-Pattern Sprayer with Purchase of the Pocket Hose Ballistic! 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off plus free shipping with code SPIKE356 https://RaceDeck.com 🔵 BlueChew - Get Bricked Up with BlueChew Gold Buy 2 months of BlueChew Gold, get the 3rd month for FREE with code SPIKE911 https://BlueChew.com GRAB SOME SCR MERCH: https://spikescarradio.com GET MORE SCR ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/spikescarradio ______________________________________________ James Pumphrey hit the Dakar Rally with Tudor watches, then flew to Geneva to attempt building a watch movement by hand.

We're talking 840 horsepower, 2,600 lbs, 24k gold-plated engine components, and a shifter micro-pavéd with real gemstones representing the Infinity Stones. The candy red paint was matched to high-end Iron Man figures. This thing is absurd in the best possible way. Along the way: Porsche GT3 SC debate, the 911 GT4 rumors nobody's officially confirmed, a Malibu GT3 RS crash Spike definitely wasn't involved in, and a roast of a Porsche dealership's Botox-and-matching-outfits marketing campaign aimed at women. Also: Peter drops insider intel on Porsche's upcoming $2.5–3M Hybrid V8 halo car. Not the Mission X.
