Jonny provides updates on the upcoming Ferrari Amalfi with its refreshed design and improved controls from the Ferrari Roma. Spike shares his surprisingly positive experience driving the ultra-luxury 2025 Mercedes-Maybach S 680, appreciating its opulent features and usability despite its association with extreme wealth. The conversation shifts to the Mercedes AMG GT XX concept, EV market trends, and the controversial Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell lawsuit. The episode wraps with discussions about the 2025 Mercedes-Benz E 450 wagon (which Mercedes cleverly disguises as an SUV), thoughts on the new F1 movie, and a hilarious critique of Robert De Niro playing dual roles in The Alto Knights. _____________________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: [email protected] 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media Learn more about your ad choices.
