| 5/19/26 | #153 Planes, Andrew, and Automobiles | The Podcast is back! Wtf is a Franklin? Introducing our new sponsor, Demand Motorsports, and Adam's replacement, Andrew. Yet another Porsche guy! We take a look at the Porsche 944 and discuss the future of Best in Class, Steve's new car, and Andrew's automotive history. | 1h 03m 34s | ||||||
| 3/24/25 | #152 We decide the next car for Diego | Diego wants to get a different car. It’s apparently time to get rid of the Ford Maverick he currently daily drives and get himself a sporty car. But he has - of course - a few rules. More than a few actually. So he gives Steve and Adam the requirements and the arguments commence! | 1h 05m 00s | ||||||
| 3/3/25 | #151 Steve's Ferrari burned to the ground! | The Italian stallion is no more, the Magnum P.I.-mobile has gone to the Hawaii in the sky, Enzo’s finest is fertilizer. It’s true - Steve’s precious Fancy Fiat suffered a small case of major fire damage and now she’s gone. Apparently that’s what it takes for us to resurrect this podcast. We’ve got the full story of ”the incident” today, along with exciting news of Adam’s new DIY garage space opening in West LA: https://www.wanderwellsociety.com/ | 58m 02s | ||||||
| 8/26/24 | #150 Adam and Steve swap keys | In what may or may not be Best in Class’s final episode, Steve and Adam are swapping keys to their cherished rides to finally see who has the better car. For more than three years they have been insulting Ferrari and Porsche on just about even episode, and now it’s time to see if either can stand their co-hosts’ car. | 1h 25m 00s | ||||||
| 6/4/24 | #149 The best dead car brand | So many car brands have come and gone over the ages, with some dying during our lifetimes. Edsel, DeLorean, Scion, and more have all shuffled off this mortal coil. But which one was the best? How would we bring back them back today? And which one of these defunct brands did Steve have a direct hand in killing? That’s this week on Best in Class. | 1h 02m 00s | ||||||
| 5/20/24 | #148 The best five-car garage (with special guest Lindsey) | Most people have a car. Some have two. But not you, because you’re a dreamer and doer and shaper of destiny. You have multiple cars, and you always want more. You might even have a dream garage full of cars you have fantasized about. Well, Best in Class is here to upgrade those dreams with our definitive list(s) of the best five-car garage possible. Buckle up, we’re dishing painful truths this week. | 1h 26m 00s | ||||||
| 5/15/24 | #147 The best Kei car for Steve and his dog | Japanese kei-jidōsha, or ”kei” cars are micro cars sold only in Japan, and just about the cutest branch of the automotive industry. These diminutive rides feature all the tech and safety of a normal passenger car, but in a bite-sized wrapper. With these forbidden fruits increasingly being imported onto our shores under the 25-year rule, it is the duty of Best in Class to inform you our listening audience which kei car is the very best. | 1h 12m 00s | ||||||
| 5/7/24 | #146 The best concept car from the 90's | While the 70’s produced icons, and the 80’s had some hits, the 90’s were perhaps the golden era of concept cars. Designers had figured out the perfect ratio of fantastic to realistic, plastic molding technology meant new shapes were possible, and OEMs were flush with cash. But which of these works of art was the best? | 1h 07m 00s | ||||||
| 4/15/24 | #145 My Motoring Life with Liv | Liv is a recent convert to the automotive lifestyle, having only fallen into it a year ago. It’s been a whirlwind year so far with offroading, mechanical adventures, Cars&Coffee events, and a cross-country trek. This week Steve and Adam catch up with her to see how her first year as an enthusiast has gone, what she has learned, and what she wants to do next. | 1h 05m 00s | ||||||
| 4/9/24 | #144 The reliably unsafe Toyota 4Runner | Toyota is revealing the new 4Runner today, so on this episode Best in Class we look back at the SUV’s past and decide when generation was its very best example. Somewhere in there Steve also brings up his 308, but that’s typical. | 1h 22m 00s | ||||||

| 4/2/24 | #143 Steve's epic road European road trip | The Steve of a decade ago was a different person. He took fancy trips. He drove interesting cars. And he wore shoes. This is the story of Steve’s epic European road trip when 10 years ago he watched F1 in person, drove his dream cars, and lived the continental lifestyle. | 54m 00s | ||||||
| 3/25/24 | #142 The best car to die in | We all have to die sometime, so why not go out with some style? But do you shove off this mortal coil in your dream car? Or your first car? Or maybe your enemy’s car to take it with you? All valid options. Buckle up, because this is going to be a dark episode! | 56m 00s | ||||||
| 3/19/24 | #141 The utterly terrifying Pikes Peak | The Broadmoor International Pikes Peak Hill Climb, presented by Gran Turismo - or as we call it Pikes Peak - is an utterly fascinating, utterly terrifying, and utterly American race that takes place every year up a Colorado mountain. If you’ve never experienced The Race to the Clouds, we’re here to tell you just how special it is. | 1h 10m 00s | ||||||
| 3/12/24 | #140 The best kit car to build in your garage (with special guest Diego) | Kit cars inhabit an interesting place in the automotive lifestyle - often ridiculed, sometimes longed for, but never ever respected. Are there any good kit cars out there? Is it worth building your own car? And what do you do with all those leftover bolts? To help us answer these questions, we’ve enlisted kit car owner Diego to tell us what’s what. | 1h 21m 00s | ||||||
| 3/6/24 | #139 The best used car available right now for $15,000 (with special guest Warren) | We’re back with another one of our window shopping episodes where we trawl the local (and not so local) car ads to find the best car you can buy this week for a paltry $15k. We even brought Warren on so we could hear his rediculous idea, and boy was it a doozy! | 58m 00s | ||||||
| 2/26/24 | #138 The not-quite corner office BMW 5-Series (with special guest Simon) | You got yourself a BMW 5-Series. Congratulations. Shame you didn’t work just a little bit harder so you could afford the big boy 7-Series. Oh well, someone has to file all that paperwork and fill out the PowerPoint slides. But at least you bought the right 5-Series by following Best in Class’s recommendations, right? | 1h 21m 00s | ||||||
| 2/19/24 | #137 The remarkably unreliable Land Rover Discovery | The Land Rover Discovery - or Disco to the fans - was an attempt to move downmarket and get more people into the British car brand. Many people bought them, but then they too learned just how unreliable Land Rovers are. So the plan worked, I guess? This week Steve and Adam explore the history of the car Adam just acquired for $2000, and find out just how big of a mistake he made. | 1h 17m 00s | ||||||
| 2/13/24 | #136 The best car from 1974 (asking for a friend...) | One of our loyal listeners is turning 50, and as such she asked us to help her pick out a fun car to buy for her birthday. The catch? It also has to be 50 years old. So Steve and Adam went on the hunt for the best car from 1974! The results, as you would expect, were mixed. | 58m 00s | ||||||
| 2/5/24 | #135 Adam bought another car! (with special guest Diego) | It’s been too long since Adam has been to the DMV, so to correct that he went out and bought a car today! The only way to find out just what a heap of rust it is (or isn’t) is to listen to this week’s Best in Class! | 1h 01m 00s | ||||||
| 1/29/24 | #134 The best Henrik Fisker-designed car | Henrik Fisker is responsible for some of the most beautiful cars of the last 30 years. He’s an entrepreneur and electric car enthusiast, but also a serial failure who has seen the inside of many courtrooms. So is he an automotive huckster, or a misunderstood genius? We’ll find out this week on Best in Class. | 1h 31m 00s | ||||||
| 1/22/24 | #133 The Adam-esque Lamborghini Jalpa | The Lamborghini Jalpa was completely overshadowed by its big brother the Countach, but this hard-charging bull deserved better than that. At the very least, it was faster, better, and prettier than its direct rival - Steve’s Ferrari 308. So if this car is so good, why haven’t you heard of it? And is there a best version? | 56m 00s | ||||||
| 1/16/24 | #132 The best cars coming in 2024 | It’s the beginning of a new year, so it’s time for us to come back from our month vacation, debut a new recording system, and tell you gentle listeners what fun cars are coming this year! | 1h 08m 00s | ||||||
| 12/18/23 | #131 The underapreciated Honda Prelude | The Honda Prelude looked like a million bucks, but unfortunately only went like thirty bucks. This parts-bin special sports car debuted several new technologies and even humbled supercars in some tests. So it must be kinda good, but which is the best? And will Adam trade his motorcycle for one? That’s this week on Best in Class. | 58m 00s | ||||||
| 12/11/23 | #130 The best taxi in the world | We’ve all been in taxis. If sitcom TV is to be believed, half of us were born in the backseat of one during a storm/traffic jam/zany adventure. And every city, country, and culture has it’s own version of the for-hire car. But which one is the absolute best? And do they all smell like a wet junkyard cat? | 1h 15m 00s | ||||||
| 12/4/23 | #129 The Swedish supermeatball Koenigsegg (Part 2) | Koenigsegg is the only Swedish car company that doesn’t make safe cars. It also makes cars that go 250+ mph. And their wares cost more than $1 million each. It’s the best Swedish supercar maker there is! And the only one! Today in Part 2 we explore the cars of Koenigsegg and which one is Best in Class for your lifestyle needs. | 1h 19m 00s | ||||||
