Description

This week on Full Throttle Talk, the crew dives into one of the biggest debates in modern enthusiast cars: Has Porsche lost its way? But first — things get wild. Tim straps into the Blue Shock Race X5 kart, a machine built on a Tony Kart chassis producing 44 horsepower with four-wheel disc brakes. It’s closer to a race car than a kart… and it’s completely unhinged. Then the conversation shifts to the biggest developments shaking the enthusiast car world: • Ferrari changes the rules again with the 296 Speciale and rumored 296 CS • The Corvette ZR1X performance numbers are emerging — and they’re borderline unbelievable • BMW may add rear-biased AWD to the M2, raising questions about the future of driver-focused cars And then we tackle the question enthusiasts everywhere are starting to ask: Has Porsche lost its way? With 20+ variants of the 911, escalating prices, and GT engines drifting further from their motorsport roots, we debate whether Porsche is still at the top of the enthusiast world… or slowly moving away from what made the brand legendary. We close with one of our favorite segments: This or That — Your Forever Sports Car Rules: • Under $250k MSRP • Built within the last 20 years • Your spouse must be willing to drive it coast-to-coast Matchups include: • 718 Spyder RS vs Ferrari 458 Spider • GT3 Touring vs Lotus Emira V6 • 993 Carrera S vs Ferrari 355 + BMW E36 M3 If you could only choose one sports car for the rest of your life, what would it be?
