    Autobahn Antics & Porsche Passion

    Strap in for Full Throttle Talk, the podcast where car nuts floor it with wit and wisdom! Join hosts Tim Harris, the all-knowing car nerd; Paul Kramer, the Porsche-dealing showman; Dave Van Epps, the vintage Porsche sage; and Casey Parkin, the automotive collection caretaker who polishes cars like they’re museum pieces. This episode takes you on a high-octane spin through Paul’s upcoming Germany trip, hitting the Porsche factory, Sunderwerks, and the country’s most epic driving roads. We debate the perfect rental car for autobahn domination, choke on the $300K starting price for a Porsche AG 911 restoration, and wrestle with whether a recommissioned Porsche can still be "original." We also geek out over Harry Metcalfe’s brilliant Harry’s Garage video, chronicling his 1989 Porsche 930 S tearing through Germany, and Jason Cammisa’s unreal Hagerty Corvette ZR1 feature. The show wraps with a gut-busting "Two-Car Garage" segment, where we pick two cars under $100K to match a hilarious story, delivering laughs and horsepower in equal measure. From Porsche purists to tire-smoking thrill-seekers, Full Throttle Talk is your front-row seat to automotive chaos!

    PTS Obsession, RS Showdowns & The $40K Surprise Lurking in Your 911

    This week’s Full Throttle Talk is a no-holds-barred Porsche deep dive, and it’s one of our most opinion-packed episodes yet. Tim Harris, Paul Kramer, Casey Parkin, and Dave Van Epps fire up the mics to tackle the questions that Porsche owners argue over in garages, group chats, and concours lawns worldwide. Why are Porsche fanatics willing to spend $20,000+ just to get the exact shade of green last seen on a '74 Carrera RS? We unpack the psychology, the scarcity, and the resale math behind Paint to Sample. Is it emotional vanity, smart investment—or both? You'll never look at a pastel orange GT3 the same way again. We put the spotlight on the most undervalued and overhyped modern Porsche RS models. Some are tracking quietly under the radar… others are riding high on reputation alone. Which RS is still a steal—and which one is about to get a market correction? Think rebuilding your stock 911 SC motor is a $10K weekend project? Think again. We walk you through the true cost of a standard rebuild—and why even a no-frills, numbers-matching engine refresh could set you back $30K–$40K. No mods. No tuning. Just reality. Which delivers the better drive: the ultra-refined, perfectly balanced 911 R, or the raw, analog grit of the legendary 964 RS? We compare notes, impressions, and real-world experiences to help you pick your dream garage weapon. And if that’s not enough? We couldn’t resist a few detours into Italian territory—with some spicy Pagani talk and Ferrari market insight to round out the ride. This episode is a love letter to car obsession—where color choices spark bidding wars, and a rebuilt flat-six becomes a six-figure affair. Strap in. It's Full Throttle time.  PTS: Paint or Prestige? RS Market Madness Engine Reality Check 911 R vs. 964 RS: The Purist’s Dilemma

    Vintage 911s vs New RS Heat: Restoration Regrets & Auction Reality

    On this week’s Full Throttle Talk, the gloves come off in a cross-generational showdown: Is the juice still worth the squeeze on classic 911 restorations—or have Porsche’s new RS models made old-school collecting obsolete? Tim Harris, Greg Stanley, and Paul Kramer are joined by special guest Dave Van Epps, owner of Sunderwerks in North Carolina, for a raw, wrench-turning look at what it really costs to resurrect a vintage Porsche 911. From hidden bodywork disasters to six-figure rebuilds, this episode is a must-listen for anyone considering a restoration. Then we fast-forward to today’s modern heroes: the 911 ST, 718 Spyder RS, and the incoming 911 RS. Are these turn-key, limited-run legends the smarter, safer bet? Or are they just tomorrow’s overpriced auction fodder? We also break down the latest auction results—what’s selling, what’s stalling, and what might be heading for a correction. Whether you’re eyeing a barn find or a Bring-a-Trailer bidding war, this episode gives you the edge.  Real talk. No fluff. All throttle.

    $1M Porsche Dilemma, Buying the 296 Speciale, and the Collector Car Crash No One’s Talking About

    This week on Full Throttle Talk, we’re diving into a few serious collector car dilemmas. Featuring Tim Harris, Paul Kramer and Greg Stanley. First up: You’ve got a million bucks to spend on one dream Porsche. Do you go for a Singer, a Tuthill build, or the legendary 1973 911 RS? We break down what each offers—and which one might actually leave you second-guessing your choice. Then, we’re talking Ferrari 296 Speciale. What’s it really like trying to buy one, and is it worth the hype once it’s in your garage? Real-world Ferrari ownership—no sugarcoating. Also on the radar: recent auction results are starting to look shaky. Is the collector car market cooling off? Or is this just a reset before the next big run? And just for fun—what would you rather own: a 1957 Alfa Romeo Giullietta Spider or an ’86 Porsche 911 SC? It’s not as easy as it sounds. If you love cars, deals, and the behind-the-scenes stories that make this hobby what it is—you’re in the right place. Let’s go.
