Spike and Jonny drive a $1.6M, 1,000-hp Gunther Werks F26 on Angeles Crest and called it a profanity generator. Zuckerman secretly bought a purple Alpina B10 and may no longer be a Porsche guy. Plus, the Canyon Carver "Don't Cross the Mustard" driving controversy gets ugly.

This week on Spike's Car Radio, Jonny Lieberman details his white-knuckle drive in the Gunther Werks F26 — 880hp on pump gas, 1,000hp on E85, 2,200 lbs, manual transmission, and a power-to-weight ratio that embarrasses a Bugatti. He calls it peak analog violence, and then some. The Swatch x Audemars Piguet collab caused global store chaos — door rushes, safety cancellations, and a pocket watch nobody actually wanted. Spike announces the new Sheffield Blue SCR watch drops May 27th with refined details including a more vibrant blue, slimmer bezel teeth, and a cleaner second-hand arrow. Zuckerman drops a bombshell: he bought a classic purple Alpina B10 — twin-turbo straight-six, manual gearbox — currently sitting at the Port of LA. Jonny breaks down BMW's Alpina acquisition strategy and why it targets the ultra-wealthy gap between $200K BMWs and $350K Rolls-Royces. Then things get heated. Canyon driver Cort Wagner reached out claiming the show was fueling controversy for views. Spike invited him on. He declined. His lengthy statement arrives instead — and Spike, Zuckerman, and Jonny don't hold back. Crossing double yellows on public roads isn't car culture. It's how people die.

Spike Feresten· Host1:15
And these, these cool little plastic watches that we love. And, uh, suddenly, pictures started leaking and we saw this come up, and we went, "Oh my God, these are gonna be amazing," the Swatch AP. The AP community went nuts. They, they couldn't believe that
