Talk about your Volvo engine swap progress or have the show about “best affordable and rational engine swaps”.

Is there a link below where we can read more about your thoughts on the Volvo?

Rational!? Me? Have you heard the show!?

That’s not a bad idea tho, I’m not sure if I’ve covered all the bases of what I’ve done to the car and how I got it all yet

Gumball Rally, the LA river race between the Cobra and Ferrari Daytona is awesome just for the sounds.

Hogan’s Heroes doesn’t inspire me, but it pulls me out of a funk.

Have you ever had a guest who spent the entire podcast on the toilet?

Ike > TheHondaBro
04/20/2017 at 18:27

Not that I know of, (Mr reg spent half the show on the toilet until his legs fell asleep)

Question/topic for the show: Is “the best car of it’s class” important?

A lot of enthusiasts will dog on another’s car choice because “in that segment, car A is better than your car B”

So what right? If that person wanted the C-class/IS350 over the 328i/A4, who cares right?

I think automotive sites/ magazines need to stop having these head to head comparisons to see “which of the same flippin type of car is BEST” I don’t see the point of this besides dull conversations by Cars and Coffee zombies.

Sorry if my anti-enthusiast is showing, I really need to get a cream to cover that up lol :]

Oh I like this! I have some thoughts I will for cover about this!

How about the shower?

Ike > TheHondaBro
04/20/2017 at 18:31

Just me, I podcast every episode fully nude in the shower, I also cook nude in the shower

Compared to the call in shows it’s rational.

Ha, yeah those have a wonderful habit of going off the rails

Ohh oh, how about “The State of City Cars in America, 2017"?

It’s kinda interesting to see that out of the few city cars that are in America, they’re either completely foreign (smart, iQ, 500, etc) or are cars that had to be developed with a global partner.

Or in FCA’s case, just giving up and nuking anything fuel efficient from orbit.

I do seem to be becoming the defender of “quirky” cars podcast. I like the idea gonna require me to do research tho, and I’m not a fan of that lol

It definitely gives your show a flair that other podcasts don’t have. There’s only so much beige car news one can take!

anti enthusiast or just anti elitist jerk?

Actually had a length chat with a couple OPPOs in real life tuesday about how hard it is to really objectively choose a car. There are so many perfectly good choices that will fill all your real needs. In the end it pretty much has to come down to something else to make a decision, some subjective, illogical factor.

indeed :] Good thing there are so many rad options to fit any rad person out there. Sucks that the auto enthusiasts/ enthusiast elite (typical kind, not OPPOs at all) get in these huge pissing battles over how they know what is the best option according to all these goofy stats and objective opinions they see and read. Hanging out with some mates and looking through whats out there is a pretty genuine way to narrow the options when in the market. Especially here on OPPO where for years and years we’ve offered the best of pointers and tips. On occasion, supporting that rad illogical factor more than anything lol :]

“This one weight 35 lbs more”

“That one is 0.2s faster to get to 60 MPH”

“the third has more 15 more Torque”

Does any of that significantly matter for your needs?
