"Me and my homies all HATE corporate minimalism" has to be my favorite quote of the week.

"Ancap or stupid" They're the same picture.

The Cybertruck is what happens when you've been on Joe Rogan a few too many times. "Jamie, pull up that video of a brown bear running away crying from that stainless steel truck..... WOOOOAAAHHH"

come to think of it, the weird roof shape of the cybertruck is probably due to it being based on a renault 12.

God finally someone dunks on that fucken eye sore. The Deloran pulled off the stainless steel look cause it looked like an actual car and not a car model missing its polygons.

1:04:21 How perfectly Jo nailed the tone and inflection of the robo tik Tok voice made me recoil in my seat. That was scary accurate.

Hi,thx for talking about Brazilian cars at around 10:36,let me clarify some things to ya 1-The Caravan/Opala are legendary cars here in Brazil they started making them back in the early 60s and the last one rolled out the factory with the same platform in 1992 when the Opala/Caravan were replace by the Omega/Suprema. 2- Yes the Hillman Avanger thing actually happened,it became the Dodge Polara/1800 here in brazil. 3-The Apollo happened when Ford and Volkswagen decided to Marge and become Autolatina,Autolatina was basically Ford and VW sharing car parts and even some whole car models with each other and that's when the Apollo was born,its sister car the Ford Verona is basically a 2 door version of the european Orion. 4-The reason why Ford based 3 cars on a renault 12 was because originally it was not Ford that decided to join hands with Renault and make the Corcel,it was Aero Willys,they were partners with Renault back in the day,they even sold some Renault models here in Brazil,one being the Renault Gordini,well anyways back in the late 60s Aero Willys was bought by Ford of Brazil and they decided to go though what Aero Willys had in its concept department and they found the Corcel,a car that basically was a Renault 12 with two doors and a more American design,Ford loved the little Corcel and decided to sell it under the Ford brand,it was a great car back in its day and a lot were sold,Ford them decided to make the Corcel 2 in the late 70s using the Renault 12 platform again and that's the one you see on the picture,the Del Rey also used that same platform from the Renault 12 because back in the day Ford was not doing great here in Brazil so they had to use the same platform as the Corcel 2 to make the Del Rey,the Del Rey was meant to be a 4 door luxurious version of the Corcel 2. 5-The reason why most cars here only had 2 doors Is because back in those days: 4 doors=cheap/fleet car 2 doors=expensive/luxurious 6-The VW Santana always had a 2 door version here in Brazil,also the Santana is based on the European VW Passat B2,because of that the Ford Versailles is technically Passat based. 7- The VW Pointer was based on the 90s Escort and it was the last car to share parts between VW and Ford under the Autolatina thing. Sorry for the bad english,I really love your stuff,you should do a video talking about the Brazilian car industry at some point,we have one of the weirdest car industries in the whole world,hugs from Brazil.❤❤❤

Still loved it when Elon threw a tantrum and threatened to sue when Top Gear shit-talked the old Roadster.

Yoooo I'm so happy this is back again. This is actually informative car industry news without being dull as dishwater. You've achieved that mythical tier where you make learning fun.

Hearing ticktock ready about a car makes me really worried.

It’s wild that they finally sold the rights to the Hammerhead iEagleThrust to Tesla after all these years.

Wait Saab is back too? Oh god, angry outside lane drives will return....

WHEN someone drives a Cybertruck into a body of water, my guess is that there'll be a loud sizzling sound, the smell on ozone and then a bunch of dead fish with float up (and possibly the driver, depends on how much water gets into the cabin before it shorts out.)

An Alfa MPV… Y’know it’ll end up just being a rebadged Chrysler Pacifica right? Kinda like how the Tonale is being sold as the Dodge Hornet

The straight 8 engine configuration is actually a well balanced engine. This may be different with those that were prominent in Europe, but the straight eights in the American market were some of the smoothest running engines available. I've been messing around with later Buick straight eights for several years and find them to be a very good engine for large sedans; while the under square design doesn't produce tremendous horsepower, the spectacular torque curve provides good performance for highway cruising from an engine with less than 350 cubic inches in the largest example.

At this point i'm waiting on Ford to make rebadged VW ID3 crossover SUV and call it the GT40.

I started laughing too hard at the ham sized mirrors on the autocar render of the model 2 It's tiki tok ready renault 12s all the way down boys.

I just had to look up that Bugatti with the transverse straight 8. That’s utter insanity.

the panel gaps are a survival feature, see the car is designed to trap water like a cistern when the driver takes it camping

Oh god I hate this thing.

Model K bit had me in stitches haha. Nice one boys

Part of what i love about this channel is that i havent heard conversation about eclectic historical cars like this since back when i was a member of the (North American) Alfa Romeo club. Never owned a Alfa they were just exceptionally nice guys who did lots of track, autocross, road rally and concour events who allowed any type of car owner to join. Not just irl convos but also came with subscription to magazine they would publish every month that had similar stories, like the tale of how the guilia sprint ss was "prepared" for its paint that still gives me a laugh and haunts my dreams 😂 😢 You guys go hard with the deep and the interesting but often too forgotten history.

The cyber truck is impressive. Not good, but impressive

This podcast is now my favorite thing ever

Dude, everything you make on KZfaq is top-notch. Even as a Russian, I've learned a lot about gaz and zil from your vods. TY❤

10:20 Back when cars were absolute deathtraps that would either launch you from the car in the event of a crash or have your legs included in the crumple zone.

Video is at 301 views as of writing, a very relaxed and informative and even characterful video on my screen, gives me some feelings of a time gone by, a simpler time. Very nice video Bin.

Dunking on the cyber truck sign me up

1:04:19 And we're now two for two at podcast episodes where Jowo says something so cursed yet so plausible that Binman can only cry out in despair

Next thing you know, Ford will pull out an Escort crossover, and then the world will collapse as both Europeans and Americans mourn the loss of our respective Escorts.

its saabing time

i am praying that the woke algorithm won't push this celestially based old-buggati-energy-pilled gem of a podcast down

One thing to mention about the Audi R8 that I think is pretty cool is that the V10 engine kinda served as the basis for the O7K that went in the RS3 and TTRS. They basically cut the V10 in half, slapped a turbo on the side, and dropped it in a compact.

The Cybertruck fills the role of the show car- design way out there, test new technologies, gauge public reactions. It will sell to people who just have to have the first whatever. Buyers looking for trucks to use as trucks will buy normal trucks.

Shout out to VisioRacer, he finds some great footage. I never really knew much of anything about early(or modern) Formula 1. I've been going down some rabbit-holes while listening to this, so this video is already awesome. I don't get some of the more Euro-centric references, however, looking them up is opening up a fascinating world to me that I never knew about. I really dig the way that Chevy Caravan Diplomata looks as well, beautiful car. I don't think we ever got a variant of that in the States. The Versailles and the Pointer are the only cars from the game that look familiar to me. I got 0/6 in the game, but at least I found out about a beautiful old Chevy!

The Cybertruck, the BMW XM, and the impending Capri are truly the holy trinity of everything wrong with the current day automotive industry. And to think that they started off with a perfectly good Renault 12. They need to up their game. As for the Prelude, I think Honda has said it won't be a performer, so we'll just have a repeat of the CR-Z on our hands. Also, I may be wrong but the FT-Se looks like it has a bit of Lotus Evora in it, especially with regards to the roofline. And grey plastic side cladding needs to go away. Make it either gold or silver and pair it with an actual color, or just make it body color to begin with. Thank you both for this podcast. Despite the rather depressing subject matter, the two of you are a delight to listen to!

Well done lads you made my playlist for December 2023!

I am getting massive 2011 VW Scirocco plus Volvo c30 vibes from the autocar render of the Tesla model 2

That xzoumi car looks like the bastard child between a Porsche Taycan and something Lotus ish. I quite like how it looks tbh

Ok, you got me hooked immediately. In the 80s I drove a supercharged 1958 MG 1.5 cigar open-wheeler. Red ofc. Holy Jesus! Guys who raced these things were 'self-deletal'. Brakes & tyres were brutal. 55:35 Before I forget - yeah, it's sort of a privilege to see irl such an entitled& cashed idiot fail so catastrophically. It is beautiful, like a huge explosion. 1:08:09 Yeah, I also have my baby 2003 Copen L880k, 75k km, fully FnF modded. True purity was lost when Daihatsu dumped the 9k 'Yamahatsu' I4 for a 7k I3. But it is a tragedy, so many Kei heroes are being killed off. RIP Copen, S660...one by one. Luckily Keis are easy to import to Australia & I have my 2016 Alto Turbo RS now. _More Kei content guys. Cheers from Canberra._

Auto journalists are having the same thing happen to them as political (and as you mentioned, games) journalists. Report poorly, or ask real questions, you don’t get invited to the next press conference, or you lose future access to exclusive information. It’s pathetic.

My favourite part of that Cybertruck fail on the dirt hill - I'm pretty sure that someone then showed a near-stock Mk1 Toyota RAV4 conquering the same hill with relative ease moments after.

At least, 'they' made the cyber urinal more beLIEvable than the LEM - "lunar excursion module" lmfao. Is paper mache easier to gap than metal? lol. Strength! GODsp33d!

thank you for el funny episode

This gives me somewhat of a "well there's your problem" vibe

This is fantastic!!!!!!! I. WOULD. PAY. FOR. THIS.

Watched the Marquees Brownlee/Auto Focus video on the Cybertruck and functionally it seemed okay, but the offroad thing and panel gaps are embarrassing as hell especially next to the GMC Hummer

pickup but different shape and worse

Would the EU rather the Hilux be advertised in its main secondary use, and have it shown with a heavy machine gun mounted in the back?

my take on the Lexus MPV is that it’ll be a fleet vehicle. taxis, shuttle services, that sorta thing

This kinda reminds me of Smith and Sniff. Fun sounding podcast. I would honestly love a chance to be on here with you guys

Return of the king(s)!

12:34 called it. It’s so boxy that even for its time it just had to be an opel

Oh man, i used to work for Ford up until a couple months before this video dropped. I really would love to get into conversation with one of these two and give them some insight on what i've learned about ford's engineering team and such, which would explain EVERYTHING that they're talking/speculating about during the ford section.

24:10...ohhhh that snipit of news makes sense, as a.... Person who is... Involved in the logistics of Kia/Hyundai/Genesis parts there has been so much chopping and changing of the Genesis dealers in the last year or so, it's been really weird... Until I got that bit of information

1:24:00 that Xiaomi car looks like the saddest McLaren clone I've ever seen. It's like they washed a 720s too hot like one of those thin-wall plastic bottles, and it contracted into THAT. Also, concerning 1:26:12: If you change only 5 letters in "Capri", you get "Brick". Coincidence? I think not.

I miss u mr binman. Im also shopping for a mic rn because i want to made videos like you, godspeed gsmer B)

just last year i bought an 1979 chevrolet opala, the coupe version of the chevrolet caravan, on the early models like mine you can clearly see the resemblance to the opel rekord, and truly they are some of the best looking cars designed by GM

Elon's Ketamine dealer literally outed him, fyi. That's the reason he's being named, his Dealer straight up would rather get arrested than have Elon pay him. Can't wait for the Ford Escort electric Hummer rival.

that Alfa concept MPV thing looks really cool

this is the new top gear change my mind

18:34 VW Santana actually had a two door saloon version here in Brazil, the thing that was exclusive to the Ford rebadge was the two door estate: the Versailles Royale I know, brazillian car industry is fucking weird, you guys should do a video about Autolatina (VW Ford joint venture), i'd love that!

I wanted to thank you for putting The Blue Nile in the Hillman Imp episode.

A Dalek in a red dress sounds a helluva lot like Six from the early seasons of the Battlestar Galactica reboot.

I can totally see Ford calling their next SUV the Gran Torino

Good news! It's the Renault 12!

This is my jam

Cybertruck is my dream vehicle Its as beautiful as a tiger tank So extremely beautiful!

I NEED MORE

I can't think of anything i'd want less than an Alfa Romeo EV. It'd be like buying a leaking nuclear reactor.

Not the Prel-Lude. Y'all made the language xD

TikTok Ready? Sounds to me like they’ve installed cameras. I dig the headlights, those are kinda cool looking.

45:30 : already started in Europe. They faced VIOLENT backclash as they started to do their traditionnal shit. Already in the making of the factory.

Least cynical car enthusiasts in 2023. I did not know the Cybertruck was actually based on the Renault 12, very cool. I predict the next Ford travesty will be a coupe crossover SUV called the Thunderbird with 2 door and awd for some fucking reason. Growing up as a huge Ford fan, it hurts to see them fall off this hard

Are yes, consumers of British television

can't wait for episode 2.5 where they point and laugh at the Cybertruck crash test results

Volkswagen has the wildest south american lineup.

The reveal at 50:14 made me laugh so much i felt dizzy

How to advertise the Hilux: mount a .50 on the back and show it racing across a ruined city, obviously

You need a third person and the activate Windows Logo and this will be the Well There's Your Problem of Automotives...

WE ARE SO BACK, SAAB IS SO ＢＡＣＫ

In the next episode, you have to talk about the Cybertrucks crash test, ive seen vehicles from the 60's perform better.

Saab and Lancia? Sign me right the fuck up!

I think its fun that if you wanted to you could shorten Lamborghini Murciélago to “LamBat”

Is mobility show a colloquial term for car shows

Transverse straight 8 Bugatti my beloved

I'd love to see a modern Giulietta though. That would kick ass.

And they'll soon announce the new Ford Puma SUV with special limited edition racing XR trim.

Can't wait for Tesla Model C(um)

I love this podcast

1.5l V16 implies twice the volume of a shot glass (roughly) per cylinder.

The cybertruck also has special tires, which will absolutely end up costing a fking fortune.

I‘m giving the video a 7/10, it felt way too short and could have gone on twice as long :P

Bro The copen concept is a upscale version The GR copen is still on sale They are selling plenty Tocot Taft Wake Tanto

I'd just like to say, In the south American car game, the Ford Versailles reminded me of Versailles, Kentucky, which we pronounce Ver-Sails. And I can only hear that looking at the car.

Hey man, loving the videos! Especially the new podcast format, have you considered making a community discord server? _look man I just have way too much knowledge on the Ferrari 512M that I gotta dump on others_

enjoyed this lads

1:32:13 I honestly predict that the Thunderbird name is going to be back eventually, as a luxurious electric suv

Please Nissan, stop the Cybertruck x GT-R gene-splicing programme.

12:22 they all look like Opel!
