Default Matt Farah's 4.5L Spyder pickup...Ammo NYC paint correction

Looks like Porsche, et al, delivery protection films, can cause issues if left on:

Wow. They got him turned around quick. Assuming they bumped all customer cars in Davey Jones’ locker up on the build list.

Apparently Porsche prioritized replacing those lost on the ship Matt's was on, and the other ship that had the container problem or something, where cars were lost

7 minutes worth of ads to open a podcast? At least we can skip it.

The spec is ugly as heck to my eye but that's just Matt Farah doing his thing. It's his car so good for him. He gets into his philosophy behind the spec at the 21 minute mark.

His podcasts are typically 60-90 minutes long, so he front loads all the marketing. His iconic cars are all in their respective iconic colorways, so, why not...especially given his color blindness.

It’s all subjective, but that is where he failed IMO - tried too hard, same with the silly door sill hair dresser comment.

I can respect and appreciate Matt's bold choice of Frozen Berry as exterior color, and I think the Silver wheels complement Frozen Berry well. But man that wine red classic interior... Mistakes were made...
