Why didn't you buy a Michael Schumacher watch?
Which generation of Acura RDX do we like?
Porsche might sell the Turbo with a manual only!!
Will 4 cyl. Boxster/Cayman ever hit $30,000?
When it's ok to wear driving gloves.

Donald Osborne is the CEO of Audrain Motorsport and the reason we got to drive a car made before 1910! Remember when we held up a city's worth of traffic on a bridge? We have him to thank. Sort of. Donald is an absolute car expert with a focus on vintage cars. As someone who has curated museum collections and assessed cars for collectors, he really knows the minutiae of so many vehicles.

On this show we laugh about our famous traffic jam; talk about how we beat Donald in the "non-race" this year; discussed the comical differences between cars in the early 1900s; find out when he got his style; and check in on his surprisingly modern Ferrari.
