    Tried to listen to 5 cars for dream garage and never heard a list of 5 cars just rambling around all different cars but we’re not the one they picked. Same for other episodes are not on track with subject.

  • German snobs

    If you like German cars; Porsche, Mercedes and BMW’s, and of course, VW’s, you’ll enjoy the show. Those are the only cars they seem to want to talk about. If they aren’t talking about them, wait 60 seconds and they will be. With as much knowledge as the 2 hosts obviously have, it is disappointing that they don’t care about discussing more brands a lot often.
