Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire stepped off the catamaran and onto our podcast the other day. Our conversation took a meandering course starting with the premise that real luxury is going to mean "handmade." We talked about Matt's Boxster Spyder and Meyers Manx before taking a tack into sailing dinghies on Long Island Sound and the benefits of catamaran tourism. There's a lot of reminiscing from the older fellas, and you might remember the automotive enthusiast web of 2008, too. Come aboard for this shipshape hour!
Matt Farah tells the tale of driving and drifting the incredible thing that is the Aston Martin Valhalla. 1,064HP of active aero-wearing carbon fiber; a big new step for the British company known for Grand Touring sports cars. Plus, why watching can be better than owning, and Patreon questions include: Am I garbage for this Amazon delivery situation? Was DUB magazine important? What's Top Gear for the younger generation?
