Description

Automotive Journalist and Voice of Reason, BJ Killeen, starts off the show with her not-so-favorable review of the Mazda CX-9. This car just didn't do it for her, what can you do? Cars are meant to fit people like shoes, and this one just didn't fit BJ. Up next, we discuss the top 10 luxury performance cars for under $40,000 on Autotrader with Executive Editor, Brian Moody, as well as the best electric vehicles for 2020, and some oldies-but-goodies like the Buick Reatta, and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera. Changing gears, we catch up on motorsports news with Automotive Journalist for Autoweek, Automobile Magazine, and Grassroots Motorsports, Steven Cole Smith, as he shelters himself from a hail of nail gun fire as roofers install a new lid on his abode. Closing out the show, AutoNXT Editor and MSN.com Contributor, Perry Stern, talks about his new article, "The 1,000-Horsepower Club" and all of the insanely overpowered cars on it, from the Hennessey Venom F5 to the Czinger 21c. Tune in to catch this high performance episode.
