Lambo Update; M5 Wagon vs Weight; When TCS is Good

The Smoking Tire

Matt's Lamborghini engine is done! Sort of. There's good news and confusing news. Plus we talk about why the new M5's wagon-ness doesn't excuse it's heaviness; which fan car we'd drive; answer a lot of automotive F/M/K questions; and revisit the worst dashboard ever.

Plus, Patreon questions include: 

  • What's the ugliest interior feature ever?
  • How to make your watch look perfect for my wedding
  • Which 6 CDs would you keep in the changer forever?
  • Would you rather have a new car with an auto or an old manual?
  • Favorite color from a non-premium brand?
  • How to get a Maserati Quattroporte to 500k miles?
  • Who would you swap garages with?
  • Do interior rattles bother you?
  • F/M/K: '65 Alfa Giulia Spring v BMW 2002 v Citroen SM
  • Most beautiful car on sale?
  • Why you DON'T need to turn traction control off
  • And more!
