Seen Through Glass's Nightmare Ferrari Restoration

This week, Spike, Zuckerman, and guest Sam Fane from ‪https://youtube.com/@seenthroughglass‬ unpack why Sam’s ditching his Porsche Boxster, the chaos of restoring a Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale he accidentally bought, and Matt Farah's 8-hour The Smoking Tire 1000th episode.

They roast Farah’s 8-hour podcast plan (it's basically a telethon), dig into Sam’s decision to bail on his first-year Porsche Boxster, and mourn the hellish (and expensive) restoration of his Ferrari Challenge Stradale. They get nerdy about Porsche's first-year Boxsters, why the Carrera T might be a better everyday choice than the 911 ST, and whether you should even care about lightweight packages in your GT3 Touring. BMW M2 in Java Green? Looks like a beast, but that gear lever—mid. Spike compares it to the M2 CS while Sam defends (kind of) his decision to rent a Corvette Z06, even though he basically hates everything about it besides the noise. The random gems include Turkish hair transplants, Spike getting pedicures, classic car smog test law (yes, Leno’s in on this), and who’s winning Instagram Reels from nowhere (shoutout Tony from ‪@BehindTheGlass‬ ). They explore the dead UK Porsche market post-Brexit, YouTube burnout, and why subtle restomods beat overbuilt customs. Also: community support for Palisades fire victims, and an open invite to Goodwood and Wimbledon. _____________________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Club Road Associates: sc@clubroadassociates.com 🌐 https://www.clubroadassociates.com Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media Learn more about your ad choices.
