2022 Porsche 911 Turbo S // Bring A Trailer

Serious question...How does one improve upon a 992 Porsche 911? I can't say enough about how impressed I was with this car after getting to spend an afternoon with it in Houston, Texas. I typically am not a fan of silver, but I feel like Porsche can get away with it. Something about the 356 in silver over an oxblood red leather has programmed me to think that all Porsches should come in this combination of colors. Beyond that, this car is just spectacular, in true Porsche fashion. The tech is plentiful, from the GPS activated front end lift system to the tasteful mostly digital cluster - I do like how they have retained the analog tach, though. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the design of the rear with the single narrow bar for a tail light. It gives the car a very Cyberpunk vibe which, if you know me, I'm totally on board with. Aside from all of this, the performance is bonkers and the comfort is to be expected. Porsche is still king, carry on. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Need a car or collection shot for auction?

Driving the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 // Bring a Trailer

Driving the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 // Bring a Trailer

The 2020 Mustang GT500 represents the pinnacle of performance and power in the Ford Mustang lineup. This beastly machine is equipped with a supercharged 5.2-liter V8 engine that generates an astounding 760 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful production Mustang ever created. With its blistering acceleration and spine-tingling exhaust note, the GT500 catapults from 0 to 60 mph in just a few heart-pounding seconds. It features a host of track-ready enhancements, including a performance-tuned suspension, Brembo brakes, and aerodynamic body components that enhance both speed and stability. The GT500's aggressive and muscular design commands attention, with its unique front grille, sculpted hood, and larger vents for improved cooling. Inside, the driver-focused cockpit offers modern technology and premium materials, ensuring a comfortable and immersive driving experience. The 2020 Mustang GT500 is an awe-inspiring machine that pushes the boundaries of performance and exhilaration, making it a true legend on the road and the track. Its amazing to me that this is what the Mustang has become. It's such a wild experience that it almost doesn't seem right. The drama of it all works in unison to create a truly mind altering experience. I was most surprised by the how quickly, and smoothly, the transmission worked. Although I never pushed this car, its crispy downshifts really we're encouraging me to do so. I'm a sucker for a good flappy paddle and this one fits the bill. I would almost say that its ahead of what some Italians are using in their cars that cost well over half a mil. No, not PDK good...but good none the less. Oh, and this color. Yes, please. Its perfect on this car. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Need a car or collection shot for auction?

Driving the 2008 Ford Mustang GT500KR // Bring A Trailer

Driving the 2008 Ford Mustang GT500KR // Bring A Trailer

Driving the newest iteration of this Mustang, back to back, gave me a good glimpse at just how far technology has come in a little over a decade. Honestly, the while the handling performance may not be up to par with the newer 'Stang, you can give me this one. It's raw and simple. It still feels like something Caroll Shelby would endorse fully. The exterior looks like a proper remake of the iconic Shelby cars of the '60s. I fear my opinions are casting an age range on me, but I don't care much. The simplicity of these cars is just such a breath of fresh air these days. You couldn't rely on modes to enhance your driving abilities, you just had to be a good driver. The sound of this car is something to behold as well. The newer Mustangs just don't sound as good as these older models. There is something automated about the way the new cars sound, out of the box, that just don't do it for me. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Need a car or collection shot for auction?

Driving the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 // Bring A Trailer

Driving the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 // Bring A Trailer

The 2021 Mach 1 Mustang is a thrilling tribute to the iconic Mach 1 nameplate that first made its mark in the late 1960s. This modern-day marvel combines the best of both worlds, seamlessly blending classic design cues with cutting-edge performance. Powered by a potent 5.0-liter V8 engine borrowed from the Shelby GT350, the Mach 1 delivers an exhilarating 480 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque. Its aggressive styling features a unique front fascia, an imposing grille, and signature Mach 1 stripes that pay homage to its heritage. Enhanced aerodynamics and a specially tuned suspension further elevate the driving experience, providing precise handling and thrilling acceleration. Inside, the Mach 1 offers a driver-focused cockpit with modern technologies and premium materials. The 2021 Mach 1 Mustang captures the spirit of its predecessors while embracing the advancements of the present, making it a true performance icon in its own right. This car was just perfection. I love the factory stance on it, I loved the color combination with the Cactus Grey and Orange accents, just wonderful. The eager to rev engine mated to the slick 6 speed where meant to be matched together as well. Just a great car all around, and it would likely be my pick out of the big 3 from Dodge and Chevrolet. Another thing to note, the fan speed on the AC can be compared to a Category 3 Hurricane. On this hot day of filming it was always nice to take a break from it all inside this car. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Need a car or collection shot for auction?

With a focus on driver engagement, the car features a well-positioned steering wheel, simple gauges, and comfortable bucket seats. The Swallow Doretti represents a captivating blend of style, performance, and craftsmanship, making it a beloved choice among classic car enthusiasts and collectors alike. This car needs to be on a tiny Californian coastal road to be enjoyed best. Think Carmel. Light haze, overcast, 65 degrees and nothing but twists and turns ahead of you.
