  2. Just say,a Peugeot 405 won the Paris-Dakar,the real one,and Pikes Peak,both times with Ari Vatanen at the wheel,and give us one of the most beautiful car clips that ever existed,“Hill Climb Dance´´.I know that the competicion car doesnt have many similarities with the street car,but you can read old magazine articles and was pretty damm good!

  3. "You can pick up fresh 8×10 film from a fridge up in Seattle" — "Well they catch it in the sound." Had to rewind there, this has me dying 😅

  4. Not sure what's going on, if it's yt related or app related.. this is the 1st episode to literally crash youtube every few minutes… I've had to restart like 12 tines and I'm only half way

  5. Another great guest, so knowledgeable and nice and polite. Somebody should give the book to Trump so he understands that all people are wonderful and caring. Victoria,Zack and Matt should do a different book together because Victoria’s photos are fantastic and the three of you are so knowledgeable about all cars but yet different tastes. Matt your watches have done well ; I really think the 3 of you could do a fantastic high end car book together and Victoria already knows how to organize it. All the best from a true follower.

  6. Great ep all! Cheers and, Raymond Loewy (the cool train dude) also designed some wonderful bourbon bottles back in the day. Check out his "Sputnik bottle". Very cool. Victoria, great, amazing guest – Lancia Delta Intergrale also a dream car for me.

  7. Great episode. Victoria's bit about how we identify ourselves and reinvent ourselves with our cars is spot on. Ironically my first car, the one that pretty much every one of my friends said that if I sold, I would be "selling part of my identity"…was an SW20.
