Nissan GT-R is FINALLY Dead! New Bugatti News, Bidding Wars, and Bad Reputations! THIS CAR POD! EP15

Countach is the "scissor doors" while 300 SL is "gullwing doors".

[@cbotten106]

Yeah, another Doug non-fact. If you had a drinking game based on them I doubt you'd make it through a podcast.

[@ldmtag]

Doug must be mental, that original ML was one of the greatest cars ever made. It was a luxurious offroader - period. And a capable one.

[@InTeCredo]

No, you are mental. The original ML was huge pile of steaming turd when introduced because Mercedes-Benz wanted to save $500 per ML. "Penny wise, pound foolish"...

[@tom_forsyth]

RIP the GT-R. I had an R33 in London, and then I came to the US and I got a 2009 R35 and it was amazing (despite really being a Fairlady, not a Skyline - but that's OK). I traded it up for a 2015 R35 because they finally made the suspension comfortable, and I still have it today. It is still far far far more car than you could ever need on the public road, 100% reliable, comfortable, extremely practical daily driver, and a fantastic long-distance cruiser. Nissan lost money with every one they sold, and it never enhanced their brand and sold the cheaper stuff. I understand why it's over, but it's still sad. No you can't have mine.

[@ForgetfulFoot]

Final GTR is in Millennium Jade. Which was also shared by the Nür R34. I saw a R34 GTT repainted in this colour in Adelaide. Its stunning colour. But yes. It is technically old man beige/champagne.

[@Flared]

Everyone also said "finally" when the original Honda NSX ended production in 2005 after 15 years, but now they are lauded as one of the best analogue sports cars of all time and the prices for the ones from the last few years have gone waaaaay up. The R35 GT-R will have its day in the future just like that.

[@rileygally2967]

Fair point, but didn’t they make way more GTR’s?

[@Flared]

@@rileygally2967 Just under 19,000 original NSXs made, with around 40,000 R35 GT-Rs made. So not silly numbers. God knows how many are left in stock condition though.

[@Bob_Smith19]

Will be hard to find a stock R35 in the future. The people that bought them modified them immediately.

[@badmontad]

Something interesting about the new x3 that was not mentioned is that it has a quad exhaust being a non M car

[@Ficon]

Second gen Cayenne transmission is made by Aisin (Toyota OEM supplier). Base is actually the best driving experience because its nose-light and VR6 while the interior and chassis is Turbo S spec.

[@J_Aaron_L]

Mitsubishi in the 90s... Eclipse and 300GT both under the DSM umbrella and the only remnant was the 4G63. Doug is correct as they, themselves, didn't develop for the future.

[@scottoleson1997]

Insane how the Macan and Cayenne are only worth just a few more bucks than Scions of the same year… gotta get one soon

[@andycalifornia426]

"How do you justify buying a new Cayenne?" - dude, if most people were thinking like this, few people would be buying new cars, the industry would shrink, new cars would cost significantly more (due to economies of scale), old cars would shoot up in value by the same multiplier as new ones, and you'd be asking "how do you justify buying any interesting car?". In other words, it's thanks to people buying new cars that not only we, enthusiasts, but even just regular people have access to many good 2nd hand cars at reasonable prices.

[@aldairperez5464]

Only Doug, Kennan, and Filippo would have a podcast talking about a Bugatti, Viper, Mitsubishi, and a Chrysler 200S.

[@aaronstephenson8909]

[@stuffhappens5681]

Actually the Meyers Manx SR started both scissor doors and forward sloping rear wheel arches. Bruce Meyers RIP was a genius designer. His dune buggy’s overshadowed the SR but the SR (Street Roadster) was cool.

More than 20 years ago, I remember sitting in a brand new GtR in Fukuoka, Japan. It had at the time only the max 280 HP but the interior and the seats were so exciting.

[@InTeCredo]

280 horsepowers is due to the "gentlemen's agreement" amongst the Japanese manufacturers. In reality, many of them are higher than the "advertised" figure of 280 hp.

[@jasonknight5863]

The original Volkswagen Beetle sold from 1938 to 2003. And sold 21.5 million cars. Why is making the same car with only 2 or so updates a bad thing ? It breeds reliability. Look at the G Wagon from 1979 to today and looks still very similar from its launch. The Mazda Miata has really been a very similar formula and looks also very much just the same way and similar light weight since its launch in 1989. And people love that. The Porsche 911 looks very similar also since its birth in 1963 to today. And is a cult car. 17 years is nothing.

[@harrismi7]

Now that the anniversary of C & B is here… I sold a 2001 Boxster S on C & B towards the beginning of the site with no reserve and made money!! Thanks Cars and Bids Team!!

[@Mr.Reality3000]

The new Bugatti looks similar to the Mistral😉

[@tom_forsyth]

1:00:20 - you already mentioned the DeLorean, and I know a lot of folks put an LS in there and it's fantastic - transforms the car. Chassis by Colin Chapman - there's a reason they cal them the "Irish Esprit". The other obvious one is a Lotus Seven with a modern Ford 2.3L engine. Obvious because oh hey I have one and it's awesome :-)

[@rileygally2967]

I just saw a Montero Sport on the road for the first time ever a couple days ago and it just looks like a Toyota Highlander or any other Japanese 4 door mid-size suv at the time. How can you hate that?

[@drunkenhobo8020]

I believe the Tourbillon's engine only powers the rear wheels and the four-wheel-drive comes from the electric motors. Means they can stuff the batteries into the central tunnel instead of a driveshaft.

[@lancemorrison1754]

Agree completely with Kennan. Used to be a BMW fanatic. Haven’t had one in 8 years. Won’t go back. No interest.

[@slowery43]

Had two M3' convertibless, not a bit of prblems with either, bored me to death would never go back. Went to a Jag X150 convertible and a Boxster. BMW's are anything but exciting

[@CalgarGTX]

Not sure if old enough car to count but I'd like a lancia delta integrale with a tesla drivetrain somehow crammed in. Obviously I'd start from a shell with a dead engine. I hear it's already 'common' to cannibalize good engine ones and good chassis ones to keep complete ones going... and i'm sure the same is true for many other models.

[@matthewcmeagher]

I love how Doug blocked the mic to say it always was when Felipe said they changed the eclipse to fwd and 4 cylinder 😂😂😂

[@DoubleHCreations]

Something tells me that one of these sedans, whether it be the Subaru legacy or the Volvo S60, is gonna pull a bait and switch on us. What that means is they discontinued the car right before announcing they’re bringing it back. They did the same thing with the Chevy bolt and the Nissan kicks

[@justingarlitz2788]

Would've liked a Tourbillon-Nevera discussion. I think they're sharing more parts than Bugatti is letting on, seems like the same body

[@pierreburton4523]

The RDX buyers want the K20A engine. That and the K24A from the TSX are amazing engines.

[@Cloxxki]

Stubby doors compared to Koenigsegg Gemera. The only car I really want. Tourbillion makes me thing of watch snobs too much. The only think Gemera doesn't do is the sound, otherwise it has more seats and cargo space and more power. A lot more in the case of the V8.

[@jasonborysik4339]

15K for an RSX Type - S is insane. I had one from in 2005 - 2009 and it was ....fine. I don't really miss it. Meanwhile i still have the 2009 SI sedan (unmodified) that was my next car. I would miss that one. Same engine, better looks, more practical, LSD, WAY BETTER transmission feel. It isn't my daily but i smile when i drive it. Both are very slow...SI slightly slower i believe but it sounds much better stock.
