This week on The Motor Crew, we ask a dangerous question… what exotic are you buying for the price of a new Prius?

We kick things off with inventory at Kasser Motor Group. Current lineup includes a 1992 600SL, 2001 SL500, GMC Sierra 2500 Denali, a 991.2 Carrera 4S Cabriolet in Voodoo Blue, and a 2022 M4 Competition in Tanzanite Blue over Kyalami. On the way in, a killer 997 Carrera S and a 993 Cabriolet in what we're calling Crable Spec. As always, we're looking to buy the right cars.

At Service House of Precision, we check in on what's going on in the shop this week.

Then we get into our Irrational Desire of the Week. A 1985 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole that checks every box for a potential bad decision. Cheap Ferrari? Questionable history? Weird spec? Some electrical stories? It's the perfect Red Flag Special. The kind of car that makes no sense… but you can't stop thinking about it.

That leads into the Motor Crew Challenge. If you had about 45k, what exotic are you buying? No Porsches allowed. The answers get interesting fast.

We also touch on the Lotus Emira moving toward a new hybrid drivetrain, and whether that shift takes away from what made the car appealing in the first place.

In What We Like This Week, we follow up on a few auctions. The Miata swapped MGB GT sold for $29,500 and still feels like a steal. A 2010 CL63 AMG with the naturally aspirated 6.2 liter V8 went for just $22,500, which raises some serious questions about value. We also review our Bring a Trailer bets on a 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera… and all of us were high. Hammer price came in at $41,500.

We also look ahead at a one owner 2011 C63 AMG and a manual 2012 BMW 135i and debate which one makes more sense as an entry level performance car.

And then… the shocker. A 2006 Ferrari F430 that hammered for $485,000. Yes, really. We try to make sense of it.

Thank you to our sponsor, Main Line Dental Club. They're redefining dental care with a membership based model that skips traditional insurance and focuses on transparency, comfort, and quality care. Their Paoli office is built around patient experience, with TVs above every chair and a full comfort menu including things like weighted blankets and noise canceling headphones. If you've been putting off the dentist, this is the place to change that. Check them out and tell them the Motor Crew sent you.
