Luftgekuhlt was there along with an incredible array of gorgeous classic carsOur trauma surgeon Dr Stephan Moran discusses upcoming pedestrian safety regs that he thinks will save livesWe channel Mark Greene of Cars Yeah and pick the car we think we areAnd finally Steve-0 rants about how three Euro-trash owners, especially the Current one Stellantis, ruined the venerable Chrysler Corporation #carsoncallpodcast #traumasurgeon #traumasurgeoncarsafety #automobile #stellantissucks #stellantis #E28M5
Steve-0 will be driving from Atlanta to Manchester-by-the-Sea, Mass in 2025 so he bought a 997 Gen Porsche 911 from Dick Barbour for the trip. He talks about it. Trauma surgeon safety: newly retired Air Force Colonel Dr Stephan Moran, MD talks about the Automated Emergency Braking state of the art. Bottom line, it's not ready yet. We found a published list of 50 underappreciated cars. The list isn't perfect (or even good), but we get into our lists as well as current cars that we think will be appreciated in 20-50yrs. #autosafety #automobile #carsoncallpodcast #steveautos
A 991.2 Porsche Turbo S cabriolet (!!!) crashed during a law enforcement-sanctioned Sun Valley Idaho high speed event. The driver and his passenger (!!!) crashed at approximately 205MPH, and miraculously lived (although they were both severely injured). Why a cabriolet and why with a passenger?!! Wtf?!! Our trauma surgeon Dr Stephan Moran weighs in with unique insights. Listeners/viewers, don't miss this discussion. Another vintage Mercedes 1955 race car is going up for auction soon and is expected to bring $70mil. Our collector car expert Adams weighs in. Then Adams talks about his new (to him) 50th anniversary 911 edition. It's his first 991, and he loves it. Rivian wants to charge a monthly fee for Apple Music or Spotify even if you’re already a subscriber. We hate the idea. A lot. Future Ford Mustang 4dr sedan and Subaru Crosstrek-like versions are coming. Do we like it? Not all of us do.

This is the first of three special episodes focusing on the legendary AC Shelby 427 Cobra. Stephan has owned a Unique Motocars 427 replica and is currently building an ERA Narrow Hip 427 Street. Bobby Crumpley is a Ford enthusiast, former guest, and sold the highest result for an ERA Street on BAT that he built. Adams who has owned everything but a Cobra, joins in.
In this episode we talk about the original 427s by the numbers, reminisce about when we got Snake bit, and try and figure out why this 65ish yr old design still takes are breath away.
In Episode 2 we'll compare the top replicas and in Episode 3 we'll banter about engine choice.
Trauma surgeon Stephan Moran MD is away, so Steve-0 and Adams take over CoC. Steve-0 argues that 2024 seems a lot like how things were 50 years ago. Adams describes his experiences at the high quality Highlands car show in North Carolina and the national PCA parade #carsoncallpodcast #steveautos
Cars on Call is going bi-weekly. We think this will provide a better product, and we hope our listeners and viewers will agree. Adams is away this week. He'll be back, but we miss his incisive wit and insightful commentary. Autobahn Adventures is a travel company that arranges trips to Europe that involve driving new Porsche 911s at high speed on the autobahn, spectacular tickets to watch the Monaco Grand Prix, and much more. Steve-0 took one of their great trips and gushes about it. Our trauma surgeon Stephan Moran MD gets into how round-abouts and other road design differences between us and Europe make driving safer over there than it is here. Finally, U.S. Air Force veteran Steve-0 became "Skid" Schutz after being given a call sign on his Autobahn Adventures trip by three retired Air Force fighter pilots. Thank you ET (prior CoC guest USAF Gen (ret) Brett Williams), Bobaloo, and Oscar, Steve-0 couldn't be more proud. #carsoncallpodcast #steveautos #traumasurgeon #traumasurgeonsafety #autosafety #autobahnadventures #porsche911 #porsche992
Car spotting — Adams saw a New VW GTI and loved how it’s a cool sporty car for everyone
Steve-0 talks about Air Water Porsche show in Orange County, Ca
Adams Nissan Z rant - They took a great car and ruined it!
Steve-0 rant — Robert Eaton was a momentous figure in the auto industry, and not for good. If not for him Chrysler would be alive and American rather that Euro and dying
Crazy car deals — Adams went to a Porsche Cars and Coffee and came home with *two* more Porsches.
Then Steve-0 talks about a Duke faculty member who sold a crappy old Dodge Omni by bundling it with tickets to the Duke-Michigan basketball game which featured the “Fab Five”
New Renault Alpine A110s were spotted testing in Fla. Will the divine A110 come to the US? We definitely hope so!
5/1/2024 is the 30th anniversary of Aryton Sennas death. We discuss this great and complicated figure.

The Porsche 911 turbo turns 50 this year. We say happy birthday! Adams talks about its history and evolution then lists the 5 most collectible models. And then the three of us pick our all-time favorite 911 turbo.
A Porsche dealer in Charleston, SC is suing a former sales manager for taking bribes from customers who wanted in-demand cars (think GT3, GT3 RS, 911 S/T, and 911 Turbo S). CoC wonders if this practice isn't more widespread, and why dealerships don't have small committees make these important decisions rather than individual employees.
Finally, Steve-0 takes Mercedes to task for dumping too many EQS BEVs on their dealers (who don't want them), having to cut EQS prices by OMG $20,000, and for insisting on making their heretofore wonderful V8 C63 sedan a four-cylinder hybrid. We predict tepid sales.

News: Supra isn’t selling. Just 484 in Q1, less than 671 Nissan 400Zs (and way less than 1930 Porsche 911s or 8600 Corvettes). Car spotting: the sublime 2018 Lexus GSF. Better than that year's BMW M5? Trauma surgeon safety Infiniti is now irrelevant as a luxury brand. After starting at the same time (and in the same place) as Lexus in 1989 they went from promising newcomer to not quite keeping up to sad also-ran in the luxury car battle. To prove the point: in 1990 they rivaled Lexus, but in 2024 sales wise they’re equal to, and about to be passed by, Porsche. And that’s despite many Infinitis being sold to rental car companies. We get into it. Finally Adams gives us a great "This or That": 1973 Datsun 240Z vs 1991 Nissan 300ZX #carsoncallpodcast #steveautos #traumasurgeon #traumasurgeonsafety #autosafety #carsafety #collectorcar #nissan300zx #datsun240z #infiniti
#carsoncallpodcast #steveautos #traumasurgeonsafetyWe celebrate the Ford Mustang's 60th birthday! Stephan goes through the original pony car's 60 years, generation by generation. Steve-0 talks new Mustang sales: spoiler alert, it sells way better than its competitors, the Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger, both of which are going away. Then Adams gives us a list of the most collectible Mustangs, and our trauma surgeon Stephan Moran MD goes through important racing Mustangs. The guys list their all-time favorite racing Mustangs and configure dream collector 'Stangs. Steve-0 mentions a few memorable press car Mustangs he's driven. And finally we all configure new Mustangs and discuss why our choice is good and the other guys' are stupid. #carsoncallpodcast #steveautos #traumasurgeonsafety #fordmustang #mustang60 #fordmustangbirthday
