Jason and Derek have modified many of the cars in their personal collections, which makes Jason wonder: is any of those cars so good that any modification would make it worse?
The discussion begins with a look at both Jason’s and Derek’s personal fleets and the modifications (if any) they did to them: Jason’s daily driver Mk7 Volkswagen e-Golf, his beloved but heavily modified Mk2 Scirocco 16V, the bat-shit bitch basket Mk1 Cabriolet, and even his OEM+ E30 wagon.
Derek divulges his vast 964-chassis Porsche 911 mod list, and talks W124 wagon mods before they both look back at some of the cars they’ve sold: MKIII Golf, Elise, Isuzu Pup, E39 BMWs, and more!
But were the modifications they installed necessary fixes for factory deficiencies, or simply a matter of personal preference?
Then they get down to business – what car(s) left the factory perfect? Candidates up for debate range from:
Cadillac’s CT4 and CT5 Blackwing
Alpha-chassis Chevrolet Camaros
Chevy SS sedan
Aston Martin V12 Vantage S 7-speed
Honda S2000
Nissan 240Z
Ferrari 308 GT4
Mercedes W201 (190E)
Mercedes W202 C43
Mercedes R129 500SL / SL500
E39-chassis BMW 5-series
Various Porsche 911 models
And more!
What do you think? What car(s) were perfect from the moment they left the factory floor?
