Zuckerman says he can't tell it apart from a Waymo. With Jony Ive's LoveFrom studio behind the design, five seats, four motors pushing 1,100 horsepower, and an Apple-esque interior full of tactile glass and aluminum switches, Ferrari is clearly going after a buyer who wants status, not lap times. The guys break down the business logic and compare it to buying hundred-dollar blueberries at Erewhon. Zuckerman then pulls back the curtain on his latest acquisition: a 1993 Alpina B10 Bi-Turbo in Daytona Violet. Sequential twin turbos, 360 horsepower, Recaro seats, custom wood trim, a boost knob on the dash, and a trunk full of surprises. This is the car that made Alpina's reputation. Spike recaps his five-day trip to Indianapolis for the Indy 500. Apache helicopters, the Wienermobile race with Andy Richter, a rave in the infield, and a photo-finish battle. The centerpiece of the episode: an exclusive, fully masked interview with the anonymous creator of Angeles Death Highway, the viral Instagram account roasting the self-seriousness of local car culture. He explains his process, why Mercedes-Benz global reps were reportedly not happy about one of his parody videos, and what he's actually trying to do: hold up a mirror so the car community can laugh at itself. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: contact@neontiger.media 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - The Ferrari Luce DISASTER 07:08 - Ferrari 12Cilindri getting a manual 12:24 - Spike at the Indy 500 20:51 - Radimak is finally sentenced 26:46 - 1993 BMW Alpina B10 review 39:26 - An interview with Angeles Death Highway 49:57 - Lucid review Learn more about your ad choices.

Spike and Jonny drive a $1.6M, 1,000-hp Gunther Werks F26 on Angeles Crest and called it a profanity generator. Zuckerman secretly bought a purple Alpina B10 and may no longer be a Porsche guy. Plus, the Canyon Carver "Don't Cross the Mustard" driving controversy gets ugly. ______________________________________________ 🫧 Meguiar's - 125 Years of Passion Premium products to clean, restore, and protect your vehicle https://meguiarsdirect.com/collections/new 🛠️ RaceDeck - Transform Your Garage Get 15% off garage flooring! https://RaceDeck.com/SCR 🛞 Vredestein - Car, SUV, Van, and Light Truck Tires Demand a better tire.

GRAB SOME SCR MERCH: https://spikescarradio.com GET MORE SCR ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/spikescarradio ______________________________________________ This week on Spike's Car Radio, Jonny Lieberman details his white-knuckle drive in the Gunther Werks F26 — 880hp on pump gas, 1,000hp on E85, 2,200 lbs, manual transmission, and a power-to-weight ratio that embarrasses a Bugatti. He calls it peak analog violence, and then some. The Swatch x Audemars Piguet collab caused global store chaos — door rushes, safety cancellations, and a pocket watch nobody actually wanted. Spike announces the new Sheffield Blue SCR watch drops May 27th with refined details including a more vibrant blue, slimmer bezel teeth, and a cleaner second-hand arrow. Zuckerman drops a bombshell: he bought a classic purple Alpina B10 — twin-turbo straight-six, manual gearbox — currently sitting at the Port of LA. Jonny breaks down BMW's Alpina acquisition strategy and why it targets the ultra-wealthy gap between $200K BMWs and $350K Rolls-Royces. Then things get heated. Canyon driver Cort Wagner reached out claiming the show was fueling controversy for views. Spike invited him on. He declined. His lengthy statement arrives instead — and Spike, Zuckerman, and Jonny don't hold back. Crossing double yellows on public roads isn't car culture. It's how people die. _____________________________________________ 📧 To advertise with Spike’s Car Radio, contact Neon Tiger Media: contact@neontiger.media 🌐 or visit: https://scrpod.com/sponsor Produced by Skyview Entertainment & Q6 Media https://q6.media ______________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 - Spike at the Indy 500 00:51 - Swatch x AP collab CHAOS 08:48 - Gunther Werks F-26 review 25:16 - What is the Vision BMW Alpina? 30:25 - Zuckerman's Alpina B10 41:21 - The Don't Cross the Mustard beef continues Learn more about your ad choices.
