WEBVTT - Monterey Car Week, Lamborghini Revuelto 0:00:01.040 --> 0:00:04.040 I'm Matt Miller and I'm Hannah Elliott and this is 0:00:04.120 --> 0:00:04.440 Hot for. 0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:14.720 Suit, all right, So this is a pretty special edition 0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:20.880 because you are at Monterey Car Week, Carmel, California, Pebble Beach. 0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:23.040 They're like so many places, but it's all the same thing. 0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:27.000 Yeah, it's really confusing. Someone was asking me, so, where 0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:30.440 actually is it because people use a bunch of different 0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:36.440 words to describe the same thing. But I'm physically in uh, Monterey, California, 0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:39.200 which is basically Carmel, which is basically Pebble Beach. 0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:42.760 And you know, when we were young reporters, the Detroit 0:00:42.840 --> 0:00:46.400 Car Show was the main event, and or maybe Paris 0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:49.960 and Geneva for you, but those car shows are no 0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:53.360 longer a draw like at all, right, and this has 0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:56.520 become the most important event, even for new cars. 0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:01.000 It's really interesting this So I was trying to think, 0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:04.959 I think this is my fifteenth year coming to Pebble Beach, 0:01:05.040 --> 0:01:07.520 to the Concord delegons into this whole week which has 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:11.560 turned into a week of car things. And yeah, it's 0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:17.920 like I would say, since twenty seventeen, twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, 0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:25.720 twenty eighteen, the news cycle surrounding Pebble Beach is like 0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:31.559 a car show, and especially since the coronavirus pandemic, when 0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:34.959 you know, no one could travel, and sort of everyone realized, well, 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:37.840 we don't have to adhere to any sort of automotive 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.959 car calendar schedule. We can put things out whenever we want. 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:47.000 Pebble Beach and the events around it, Monterey Carweek has 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:51.600 just become sort of the headlining car show for lack 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:56.080 of a better word, for new cars, for concepts, for hypercars, 0:01:56.200 --> 0:02:02.960 for BMW's, for Portia's you know, if there's you know. 0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:06.480 And the funny thing is all of the car executives 0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:10.720 come here. Now. They may not go to every automotive 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.520 show that we I mean, I guess we kind of 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:16.079 have the La Auto Show still, they don't even come 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.080 to that, but they all want to come to Pebble 0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:21.320 Beach and to mono a car Week in August because 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:24.080 it's a really nice place to be. It certainly beats 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:27.120 sitting in the back of a you know, boardroom and 0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:31.960 a convention hall under those fluorescent lights. But also the 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:35.000 whole vibe has completely changed from just old cars, and 0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:37.400 there are lots of those, of course, and the auctions, 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:41.359 but we've got a lot of new stuff too, So 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:43.919 it's it's really fun, it's it's really intense. You kind 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:45.680 of got to pick where you want to be and 0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:48.160 stick to it, all right, So let's. 0:02:47.840 --> 0:02:49.760 Let's pick that apart a little bit and talk about 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.240 the events. I want to hear about the auctions and 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:59.440 the Concord elegance, but first the the new vehicles. You know, 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:03.040 I remember when you were there last year. I think 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:05.880 Lamborghini was showing the Lanzador and. 0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:12.480 What uh maybe a Revelt overview as a reveal as well, 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:14.360 or no, I that might have been. 0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:19.400 I don't recall that there, but I know that you've 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.480 driven that car now and I want to hear a 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.720 little bit about that. And I remember there were also 0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:29.000 some normal car brands, like Infinity was showing, you know, 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.000 a new vehicle last year totally. 0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:37.080 Well, this year, Infinity is showing their new generation, next 0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:42.720 generation QX eighty, Lincoln is showing the new navigator. You know, 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:47.280 Accurate is showing a very exciting concept electric vehicle. So 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:52.000 you know, it's really interesting and it really is a mix. 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.520 It's not just hypercars. Of course, those are what make 0:03:54.560 --> 0:04:00.760 the headlines, but you know Cadillacs here. I don't know 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:04.240 about Ford. I'd have to check on that, but yeah, 0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:09.320 it really is a range and I like that, you know, 0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.200 more and more, it's it doesn't have to be. Some 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.240 of the events are expensive, but some of them are free, 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.400 and if you're in the area at all, you're going 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:19.960 to see a bunch of things for free. The access 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:21.000 is actually pretty great. 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:24.599 Do you get to drive multiple different vehicles or you 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:27.919 just you know, does Lamborghini give you the Revuelto and 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:29.039 that's your ride for the week. 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:35.400 You know, I'm very grateful for this week because I 0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:38.160 do get to drive a number of things. I drove 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:42.200 the Rabwelto up here from Los Angeles yesterday, which this 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:47.279 is the hybrid Lamborghini. It's the starting price is over 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:52.120 six hundred thousand dollars and my goodness, it's a wild, 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:54.240 wild car. Let me tell you. 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:56.880 It's the advent of door successor, right, So it is 0:04:57.040 --> 0:05:01.520 their flagship V twelve just has an electric motor as well, 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:03.359 and it costs a lot more than the eventa or 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:04.200 did just to start. 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:10.039 Yes, and it's really interesting because Lamborghini here is going 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:13.320 to be unveiling the Hurricane Successor which will also be 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:17.320 a hybrid, and they're showing their hybrid ars, so this 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:21.000 is basically Lamborghini saying, you know, we're going all in 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:24.560 all hybrid. We are not doing EVS, They're sticking with 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:27.000 the hybrid thing. And so I was really curious about 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:31.840 the Roguelto and it's really interesting. I have to say, 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:33.960 even this morning, I drove it up to a breakfast 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:37.800 sort of up at a ranch, and I love the 0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:40.480 fact that you can turn out that car and drive 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:43.200 it out of a parking lot and not wake anybody up. 0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:47.360 I mean, because it's in electric mode. So the whole 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:50.640 of course with Lamborghini is you know, they're so loud. 0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:54.960 The engines are just really really roaring and poppy and 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:57.919 crunchy and all of the things that we love. But 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:00.520 it's kind of cool to have one that you can 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.960 have this stealth mode so that you can pull out 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.120 of a parking lot in the early morning, in the 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:07.960 fog and no one's gonna hear, and no one's going 0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:09.919 to know. I actually really liked that. I thought that 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:10.600 was very cool. 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:14.720 I feel like it's fair to expect. 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:18.440 Yeah, yeah, I have to say, this morning, on the 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:21.800 way back from that, I filled it up for the 0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:25.920 fourth time already, so the fuel efficiency is not one 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:28.840 of the high points on it. And I got the 0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:32.960 car yesterday and we're on our fourth tank, so fuel 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:37.080 efficiency is not great in that car, but it certainly 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:42.000 is really fun to drive. And then on the way back, 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:45.800 I'll just be driving the Ferrari sub the Pro Song 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:51.200 that a seem discussed. Oh but here's why I'm excited 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:55.080 about that, actually, because the Rivelto does not have very 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:59.040 much luggage space, and so it really was a challenge 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:04.240 to fit clothing and hats and boots and coats for 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:07.799 a week into that car. Now I did pull it off, 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:10.840 but the Pro Song will at least will have a 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:11.720 little bit more room. 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:16.320 So you and Magnus and all your stuff, or did 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:17.040 you take two cars? 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:21.240 Yeah? Well, actually I have to tell you Magnus is 0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:24.640 showing a car at the Quail and it's his nine 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:28.760 point thirty Turbo and that car was shipped ahead of time, 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:33.400 and we actually put his luggage in that car. So 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:36.920 that's how we made it work because it was actually 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:39.280 only my luggage on the way up and his luggage 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:43.480 was in his car that we retrieved once we arrived. 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:47.440 So it did help to have that car. 0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:48.880 I want to get to that. I want to get 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.920 to that in a second. But I know that you 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:55.240 have already been pulled over by the police. I don't 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:57.720 know any of the details of this story, so I'm 0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:02.040 excited to hear. But I know like airplanes and helicopters 0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:05.640 are involved. I saw Magnus sent me a picture, texted 0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:09.040 me a picture of like the police in the year. 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:16.960 All right, well, here's what happened. We you know, we 0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:22.280 leave la uh and I'm being careful and I'm going 0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:26.920 I'm I've made this drive, not fifteen years, because I've 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:29.280 done other things, but you know, I've made the drive 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:33.840 many times, and I have been pulled over before. And intellectually, 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:38.040 I know the guys are out this week. They've got 0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:40.840 their quotas to make, They've got their budgets to make. 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:44.680 The guys, the chippys are out and they're gonna be 0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:48.160 on the hunt. I know this, And I even say 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:52.000 to Magnus, I'm not going over ninety. I don't care 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:56.240 who's passing me trying to get this. You know, it's 0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:58.760 an expensive, very flashy Lamborghini. 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:00.840 I said, you want to right everybody? 0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:04.439 Yeah, completely They're all all around the car taking photos, 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:06.480 and I said to them, I'm not going over ninety 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.200 I said it, and you know I was. I was 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:15.520 cruising it, you know, less than ninety, being passed considerably. 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:21.160 And then I discover accidentally that under the hybrid drive 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:24.320 mode on the Rivelto, it limits you to ninety three 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:27.600 miles per hour. That's just in a certain drive mode. 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.360 You can switch out of that drive mode and obviously 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:31.560 go quite a bit faster, but the drive mode I 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:34.959 was in, I actually I found out, Oh I'm flooring 0:09:35.000 --> 0:09:37.680 it right now and I'm only going ninety three because 0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:42.120 it's electronically limiting me. So of course I switch out 0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:45.240 of that mode because who likes to be hamped? No 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:48.559 one wants to have it nanny, Oh, you can't put 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:50.880 a saddle on a Mustang. So I just switch out 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:54.400 of that mode without you know, thinking about it. And 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:57.439 you know, the car feels great. And I have to say, 0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:00.880 this is one of those cars that the faster you go, 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:05.000 the better it feels. And you know, we took the 0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:09.040 highway one up to up to Monterey is closed. It's 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.600 it's under repair. So we're inland. We're taking the inland 0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:14.920 straight shot up. It's like three hundred and twenty miles. 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:18.679 It's through one hundred mile a one hundred, one hundred 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:21.880 degree temperatures. It's really hot. But it's just a flat, 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:25.360 big open highway. It's a divided highway, so you just 0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:30.360 have three lanes, big, flat, wide open, and the car's 0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:36.079 just feeling so great, and you know, we're talking about 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:39.680 Alex Roy and how incredible it was that he made 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:43.920 his cannonball run across the country, and you know, of course, 0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:47.079 it's like I'm driving and I'm like, wow, he really 0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:49.560 maintained the speed and he did it, and you know, 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:52.960 it's in the back of my head, and you know, 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:55.920 we stop for lunch and everything's great, and you know, 0:10:57.480 --> 0:10:59.480 we get back in the car. We stop in Pasa 0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:03.960 Robles and which is about one hundred and twenty miles 0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:08.160 away from an Array, and we map it the rest 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:10.959 of the way, and Magnus at one point goes, oh, 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:14.880 you're making really good time. You've cut off, you know, 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:18.560 two or three minutes from our estimated arrival time. 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:19.640 It's a challenge. 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:22.560 I'm not blaming that on him. That's not his fault. 0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:25.960 I was the one driving. I take full responsibility, but 0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:28.160 that was in the back of my head and the 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:32.720 cars just feeling great. Before I know it, there's someone 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:35.480 behind me with a loud siren and some lights going 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:39.640 and you know, I didn't even see him. And I'm 0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:41.319 not going to say how fast. 0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:44.800 I was going, just to paint a better picture. You're 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:49.079 in like a flat black like a flying saucer. Essentially, 0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:50.400 is what this thing looks looks like? 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.000 Yes, it's it looks like and it's like a bat. 0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.959 It literally looks like a bat. It's it's like an 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:02.120 event to door, all blacked out, but even lower and 0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:06.360 more aggressive. And I didn't even I literally didn't even 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:10.800 see and he pulled, you know, license and registration and 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:14.600 uh Magnus actually said how did you clock the speed? 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:18.840 And the cop said, well, I visually estimated your speed 0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:21.800 and then I got you on the radar at something 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:24.800 different and he had been going in on the opposite 0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:27.319 direction and he came up behind me. He flipped around, 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:30.240 he did a U turn, flipped around, and then got 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:37.840 or oh he was in some charger challengers style. Yeah, 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:43.679 so you know, I said, hey, it's a press car 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:46.360 because I knew he was going to check the license 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:48.560 and registration. He goes, I know, I know I could 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:51.880 see from the plate, so he's well aware of what's 0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:58.520 going on. Nice enough guy, and he basically just said, uh, well, 0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:01.520 I'm going to write you up for this speed. If 0:13:01.559 --> 0:13:08.000 it was a mile higher, the consequences would have been 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:10.720 quite a bit worse. But you know, I said, thank 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:14.040 you very much, officer. Of course, will be very careful. 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.160 I'll let all my friends know that you and your 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:21.000 fellow law enforcement officials are out today. And it's this 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:23.520 sounds bad, but there was nothing reckless about it. You know, 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:26.040 it's wide open road. I just didn't see him. And 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:26.800 there's a speed. 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:28.160 Limit there, right, because I know in a lot of 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:30.160 the west there is. 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:33.440 Yeah, the speed limit. The posted speed limit was seventy 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:38.400 So yeah, so that happened. And he did say, oh, 0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:41.079 by the way, you know, we've got I think he said, 0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:44.560 two helicopters and three planes. There was three planes and 0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:49.080 or three helicopters and two planes up this week monitoring. 0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:51.920 So and you know, this was in King King City, 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:56.079 near King City, so they're pretty well known for pulling 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:56.680 people over. 0:13:57.440 --> 0:13:59.760 I don't know why the law enforcement, though, wants to 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:02.880 do full court press when they know that there's gonna 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:05.360 be a lot of people and flashy cars that want 0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:10.040 to test them out. It's a fun week, you know, you'y. 0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:13.400 And you know it was not reckless driving. It was I. 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:16.920 Totally understand you're on an open highway, three lanes, no track. 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:20.600 I was not changing lanes. I was just going bombing 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:24.200 straight down the middle, So you know, I understandably, I 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:28.400 of course I respect law enforcement, but I blame it 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:34.280 on the car because that car is unbelievable and I 0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:38.240 was just cruising. I was actually genuinely surprised when I 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:41.320 heard them behind me. It just feels so comfortable and easy. 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.160 It just feels like you're cruising. And I've been, you know, 0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:47.520 on tracks before. There was no effort at all involved 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:51.160 in hitting that type of speed. So my point is, 0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:54.800 if you do find yourself lucky enough to buy this 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:59.080 wonderful machine, you should probably add a line item in 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:04.440 your budget for tickets because it's just too easy to 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:05.400 drive really quickly. 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:10.920 So I have learned over the past few years that 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:13.240 in America, you know, when you get a speeding ticket, 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:14.960 you get you had the fine, but you also have 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:18.080 the points, and if you can afford the fine, then 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:21.320 it's the points that really annoy you because you're in 0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:23.600 danger of losing your license, which for you is kind 0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:25.920 of like losing your livelihood. So and for me too. 0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:30.280 So what I do is I always find local lawyers 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:33.480 who are sort of friends of the bar, right. And 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:36.480 if you get a local lawyer, usually for depending where 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:42.120 you are, two for six hundred dollars, they essentially get 0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:45.600 you a fine only no points. I think Matt Ferro 0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:48.040 on his podcast like it's sponsored by one of those things. 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:50.320 So do you go and find a lawyer straight away? 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:56.360 I haven't been able to do that quite yet. Currently, 0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:58.200 knock on wood, I don't have any points on my 0:15:58.360 --> 0:16:01.880 California license, so I would like to keep it that way. 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:06.760 And yes, I will be exploring that. I'm pretty it's 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:10.400 just so funny because I am I'm not a fast 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:14.800 driver necessarily. It's a job hazard and you know, I 0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:16.920 have to test the car to its abilities, you know, 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:18.880 I have to test the car to its fullest extent. 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:21.200 So this is in the line of duty. 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:25.600 Well, you've taken one for the team. We really appreciate it, Hannah. 0:16:25.600 --> 0:16:29.000 Thank you all right. So that's awesome and I can't 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:32.200 wait to see the car. I really haven't besides on 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:34.640 the internet, I haven't really seen it. So you'll you'll 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:39.080 drive the Ferrari suv back, which also has a twelve 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:42.360 cylinder motor. And yes, and it is also going to 0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:45.720 be pretty easy in terms of the acceleration and top speed, 0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:46.520 but you'll be. 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:48.840 More careful the rest of the way to Mono Ray. 0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:51.960 I think I drove sixty three to sixty five miles 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:55.360 an hour, which is basically limp mode in a Lamborghini. 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.160 I mean I was literally people were looking at me 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:01.800 like are you okay? I mean I was under sixty 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:03.880 five for sure. So on the way back I will 0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:09.119 be extremely slow, unfortunately. But Oh, what I was going 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:11.720 to say is, you know, there is something to be 0:17:11.760 --> 0:17:14.879 said for driving these slow old cars like these rolls royces. 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:17.800 I drive at home because you can't drive fast if 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:28.560 you want to. It's really true. There is something for 0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:31.480 everyone here, you know, if you like muscle cars, if 0:17:31.480 --> 0:17:34.520 you like corvettes. I don't know about the truck and 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:37.520 the band culture. Yeah, I haven't seen too many trucks 0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:40.200 and vans yet, but you never know. There's just something 0:17:40.240 --> 0:17:42.199 for everyone. Oh, on the way up to and this 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:45.479 was really cool cool. We saw it looked like a 0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:48.639 model T. But we saw these two dudes on the 0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:51.920 highway going about fifty in what looked like some sort 0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:54.639 of model T car, obviously on their way up here, 0:17:55.119 --> 0:18:00.280 just enjoying life, not getting tickets. It looked great. So 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:02.439 there really, yeah, there really is something for everyone. And 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:06.360 I definitely think, you know, for the people who find 0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:10.760 their way here, you make friends so fast with like 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:13.040 minded individuals and you kind of never know what you're 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:15.119 going to end up being able to drive. You know, 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:18.360 if you're just kind of a friendly, chatty person. I mean, 0:18:18.400 --> 0:18:23.359 you would kill Matt up here because everyone wants to 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:27.160 show their car, share their car, talk about their car. 0:18:27.320 --> 0:18:32.040 It really is a really nice thing. And we were 0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:35.440 at a dinner last night, and you know, Sir Michael Kadori, 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:39.520 who owns the Quail and Peninsula hotels in Hong Kong 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:44.840 and around Asia, he gave this really nice toast about how, 0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:47.320 you know, in a moment where it seems that there 0:18:47.320 --> 0:18:50.440 are a lot of divisions in the world and especially 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.240 in the US right now, it's nice to have a 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:55.840 week where you feel that you can connect with all 0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:58.960 different types of people around the love of a car 0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:02.040 and they're around the love of motorsport. And he did 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:05.880 have a really nice point. You know, it's it's certainly 0:19:06.359 --> 0:19:09.520 a privileged place to be in, but in a way 0:19:09.680 --> 0:19:15.040 it is very equalizing because the cars really are a 0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:15.720 common bond. 0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:19.480 I would say, forgive my ignorance. But the Quail is 0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:21.840 that a resort or what is that? 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:27.680 The Quail is a golf club also very close to Carmel, 0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:32.480 and it's it's also a car show. So on Friday, 0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:36.000 a lot of the new car debuts are happening at 0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:39.720 a car show called the Quail, which is you know, 0:19:39.800 --> 0:19:43.560 the Pebble Beach Car Show is Sunday, that's only old cars. 0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:47.120 That's just basically a beauty contest for cars. The Quail, 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:50.920 which is another car show that's happening on Friday. That's 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:53.439 where all the new car debuts happen, and that is 0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:58.240 on the grounds of the Quail hotel and lodge and 0:19:58.280 --> 0:19:58.800 golf course. 0:19:58.880 --> 0:20:01.400 You know, it's weird the so that's cool and good 0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:07.800 to know, thank you. The sl is the Mercedes sports car. 0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:11.000 I think the gull wing was probably the first iteration 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:13.240 of it, right, that's so famous. Everyone knows that one 0:20:14.320 --> 0:20:18.120 and now I just test drove the AMG sixty three 0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:21.520 that the new convertible version, but of SL stands for 0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:25.600 sport Leicht, so it's a small sports car. And so 0:20:25.640 --> 0:20:28.080 it's weird that my Bock. Why would there be a 0:20:28.160 --> 0:20:31.560 my Boch version of the sport Leiched Doesn't it seem strange? 0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:38.440 It's a great question, Matt Miller. I think because there's 0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:42.679 money to be made. Yeah, you know, no, I mean 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:46.359 I'm laughing because you're asking the obvious question, which is 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:53.200 so true. And this my Boch SL is actually heavier 0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:59.000 than the AMG SL because it has more systems to 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:00.480 make it a bit of a soft to ride, a 0:21:00.520 --> 0:21:05.080 more comfortable ride. But obviously Mercedes has brought back the 0:21:05.119 --> 0:21:07.760 my Box brand and it's been a little bit spotty, 0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:10.320 you know, remember like the my Box from the early 0:21:10.359 --> 0:21:13.560 two thousands that like jay Z and Conehatan. So it's 0:21:13.600 --> 0:21:16.720 been a little bit spotty. But I think they might 0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:20.399 have hit their stride now, like remember the Virgil Ablow 0:21:20.760 --> 0:21:27.600 concepts that came out, and my Box is basically potential 0:21:27.880 --> 0:21:33.159 to have very wealthy people create very outrageous designs on 0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:38.840 their car. So this this SL, as you rightfully point out, 0:21:39.000 --> 0:21:43.240 I think it's all about these crazy design and aesthetics. 0:21:43.280 --> 0:21:46.080 Like this car in particular, it's got a black hood. 0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:50.320 It only comes with a white interior only, which has 0:21:51.040 --> 0:21:53.680 this floral stitching on the seats. There are my Bock 0:21:53.800 --> 0:21:57.439 logos just printed everywhere on the car. It's just an 0:21:57.440 --> 0:22:01.760 opportunity for people to spend money on making something that 0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:04.080 feels rare and exclusive by they. 0:22:04.080 --> 0:22:07.600 Speaking of heavy sports cars, I spent the last week 0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:12.240 in the Jaguar F Type R, which is a car 0:22:12.480 --> 0:22:15.160 I don't think they've changed the design for like a decade, 0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:20.159 right either. I don't even think they updated the interior, 0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:23.440 even though they've updated the interior of the F Pace. 0:22:24.080 --> 0:22:26.639 But I found after a while it is you know, 0:22:26.640 --> 0:22:29.120 it's a heavy convertible. It's more of a grand tour 0:22:29.200 --> 0:22:31.520 than a sports car. I really liked it. And it's 0:22:31.560 --> 0:22:36.760 all about that old supercharged five liter motor. Yeah, they 0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:38.160 just don't need to change anything. 0:22:38.760 --> 0:22:41.160 I remember really liking that car when it came out 0:22:41.200 --> 0:22:42.720 and thinking it was a lot of car for the 0:22:42.760 --> 0:22:45.679 money and really nice value and really a pretty car. 0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:48.960 And yeah, you're right, it's like what's going on a Jaguar. 0:22:49.240 --> 0:22:53.000 I mean, let's see something new land Rover this year 0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:56.000 at Pebble Beach. Actually land Rover is showing a new 0:22:56.119 --> 0:22:59.080 version of something that already exists, and then the Queen's Defenders, 0:22:59.359 --> 0:23:03.960 but there's nothing from Jag and it. And to your point, 0:23:04.240 --> 0:23:06.480 I think the F type is a great car and 0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:07.720 it would be nice to see more. 0:23:08.240 --> 0:23:10.280 Yeah, I think they could do more with it. But 0:23:10.359 --> 0:23:13.480 I just thought, I mean, I guess it's it's a 0:23:13.480 --> 0:23:16.040 better price point than in Aston Martin, so compared to 0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:19.679 like the dB twelve that we drove, I think it's 0:23:19.760 --> 0:23:23.480 just so much better value for money. But it does 0:23:23.560 --> 0:23:27.080 beg the question like what happened to that brand? What? 0:23:27.080 --> 0:23:30.919 What are they doing? Is it gonna shut down? Are 0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:31.840 they going to sell it? 0:23:32.119 --> 0:23:34.600 You know, when I when I reach out, as I 0:23:34.800 --> 0:23:37.480 recently did going into this show and said, you know, 0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:39.879
