GrandSport Returns, Stunting Your Driving Growth, Bucketing Car Enthusiasts | Episode 1,039
Everyday Driver Car DebateShow Notes
The Corvette GrandSport designation has returned, now applied to the C8 generation! The guys discuss the new 6.7L V8 engine, plus news from around the industry. They debate fun yet responsible cars for Chris in Maryland, who is fighting the mid-life practicality vs. desire. Then, Drew is shopping for his wife (who doesn’t drive much), and is intrigued by all these EVs coming off lease. Should he investigate further? Social media questions ask if we’ve gone backwards with base-level small engines, what kind of car should Subaru build next, and if convertibles increase a driver’s connection with the road, why don’t the guys like them very much?
Audio-only MP3 is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and 10 other platforms.
