    The Exotic Car Market Has Lost Its Mind | SCC PODCAST | 136

    The exotic car market just lost its mind. Same 812 GTS went from $680K to $830K at the same dealer in 3 weeks. Same story with 765LTs, F12s, 458s, and F8s — everything is parallel-pumping at once and the supply/demand math doesn't work anymore. We break down why, what cars are leading the charge, why McLaren going all-hybrid is going to define the next era, why the Artura is the lease-special problem nobody wants to address, and Gavin's bucket-list car announcement. 0:00 The market doesn't make sense anymore 1:00 The 812 GTS that jumped $150K at the same dealer 3:00 The $550K-to-$625K dealer pump 6:00 The supply-and-demand argument breaks down 9:00 Why "limited supply" isn't actually limited 12:00 The pricing gap problem — $100K to $500K 15:00 Why a $200K options jump can make sense 18:00 The 765LT pricing math that doesn't add up 21:00 F12 + 458 + F8 markets all moving parallel 24:00 The new SCC Racer T shirt 27:00 Driver-focused engagement vs steering wheel screens 30:00 The third pedal / gated shifter rumor 33:00 The front-end design we actually like 36:00 When the next "good car" actually drops 39:00 STO holding value, 458 not making sense 42:00 The next-gen McLaren hybrid prediction 45:00 Artura problems and the hybrid reliability question 48:00 Why Artura lease specials aren't actually special 51:00 Joe's bucket list car — he's been talking about it forever 54:00 The number Joe would take to sell it 56:00 Outro + SCC Collective link DRIVE EXOTICS WITHOUT LOSING MONEY: https://collective.supercarconnection.com SHOP MERCH: https://supercarconnection.com/store JOIN OUR PATREON FOR BONUS CONTENT: https://patreon.com/supercarconnection Follow us: Gavin https://www.instagram.com/sccgavin/ Joe https://www.instagram.com/sccjgm/ YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@SupercarConnection Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/supercarconnection/ TIKTOK | https://www.tiktok.com/@supercarconnection Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/supercarconnectionpodcast X | https://twitter.com/SupercarConnect
