We’re joined by our friend Nate Lander, from the Mercedes-Benz Classic Center in Long Beach, California. Nate, along with his boss—our pal Mike Kunz—have built a truly special place with the Classic Center and a truly essential resource for us Mercedes-Benz fans in the United States. Some of you listening may know Nate from the Colorado Grand—he’s done something like 22 of them—or, maybe you know Nate from the recent (and excellent) four-part series he did with Tyler Hoover on Hoovie’s Garage, where he—and his dachshund, Otto–stole the show. We’ll be doing more with the Mercedes-Benz Classic Center in the future, so stay tuned. In the meantime, it’s Nate Lander, and it’s a good one. It’s That Car Show.

Since you’re probably sitting middle seat on a Southwest flight as you listen to this (say hello to Tory…), or, halfway across Nebraska in a Genesis GV70, maybe with a whiny dog and a cranky family in tow, we figure you could use three hours of enthusiast content. First up... our very first That Car Show episode—Oui Oui—which, if our analytics are to be believed, you probably haven’t heard yet. Jeff Bezos’s Key Party, on the other hand, is another early episode that’s a popular favorite. Just make sure you grab the keys with the Porsche fob. And we end on our conversation with Sasha Selipanov, creator of the Nilu 27… a hypercar which is very much having a moment. He’s on Jay Leno’s garage this week. But we had him first. It’s That Car Show.

This week—better late than never—it’s That Car Show, live from the L.A. Auto Show. Lindsey, Michael and Ryan are joined by Jorge Aquino of Tormenting Tarmac and we hunkered down in a cubicle in the Auto Show media center to bring you this podcast magic. Our show impressions, the best new car reveals and some general automotive shooting of the shit. Plus… we curate a museum exhibition without equal. This was a fun one and it was good to record together in person. Subscribe, rate and review.

This week, it’s a That Car Show crew show and the gang’s all here. Dan survived an off-road trip across the desert from LA to Las Vegas, only to be held captive in a dark tunnel and tortured by one of Elon Musk’s foot soldiers. Lindsey pitches some two-car solutions that somehow don’t involve a Pontiac Aztec and I’m still mad about losing car bingo back in 1986. We fire up the ol’ time-traveling DeLorean, too… this time, to visit the Ford showrooms of yore. What does peak Ford mean to you? I bet you’ll never guess where we end up. And no, it’s not 1908.

This week, That Car Show meets That Auto Show… the LA Auto Show. Or, at least the show’s Director of Sponsorship & Business Development, Andy Steinhauser. Andy lives, breathes and almost certainly dreams the LA Auto Show and this one’s a fun ride. We go deep into the history of auto shows, what the challenges are in putting on a show of this scale and why the LA Auto Show might be more relevant now than ever. This will be the 118th year of the LA Auto Show—if you can believe it—and Andy shares everything that’s up the show’s sleeve this year and even some hacks for the out of town visitor. We’ll be there and hope to see you there as well. This year’s show runs from November 21st through November 30th and tickets and more info are at laautoshow.com.

Sasha Selipanov is the automotive designer behind many of your favorite modern supercars and hypercars including the Lamborghini Huracan, the Koenigsegg Gemera and the Bugatti Chiron. We talk about what makes a car great, why the Germans are sometimes scared of their own shadow, why Freeman Thomas’ original Audi TT was so good and why the company’s new Concept C is a return to form. Of course we also go deep on Sasha’s current project—his Nilu 27 hypercar—and why we think it’s the most exciting hypercar in a long time. Here’s a hint... it’s got a V12 that goes to 11 and a gated manual transmission. This is a good one, and Sasha’s story of growing up in a Soviet republic to creating some of the most iconic enthusiast cars of our day is a great one. It’s also a reminder to get off your ass and go do something with your life. It’s That Car Show.That Car Show is brought to you by Sheffield Watches.
