Buckle up, gearheads! This episode of Full Throttle Talk is packed with everything you love (and maybe some cars you hate). We’re breaking down the latest collector car events, dissecting auction disappointments, and asking the million-dollar question—are auction estimates even worth the paper they’re printed on?
Jerry Seinfeld’s Porsche 917 made headlines, but was it the real star of the Werks Reunion? Plus, the great Porsche 911 debate: E, T, or S—which is the one to own? And let’s not forget the jaw-dropping $5.5M sale of a RUF Yellowbird—does that mean the market is still on fire, or are we cruising into a correction?
Oh, and we’ll also be calling out some of the most overrated collector cars (yes, we’re going there). Tune in, have a laugh, and let’s talk cars!
