About this episode
Reflecting on the automotive highlights of 2025, the hosts discuss memorable cars, market trends, and personal stories. They reminisce about unique listings like Paul Walker's Ford GT and the MazdaSpeed Protégé, while also analyzing the year's auction performance, which approached 50,000 lots sold. The conversation touches on the evolving car market, notable sales, and the anticipation for upcoming events in 2026, including a potential BAT track day and celebrations for Route 66's anniversary. The episode is filled with humor, nostalgia, and insights into the automotive world.
Alex is joined by fellow BaT senior luminaries, Howard and Zac, to take a look back at 2025 and ring in the new year. They regale us with some of their favorite or otherwise notable listings from throughout the year, and along the way talk about Howard as a secret Corvette guy; the glory of the Mazdaspeed Protege and its predecessors; the Valentine One (and related bad advice from Howard); and key value differences between the beginning and end of 2025.
Also discussed: a rare glimpse into curation regrets; alphanumeric Lambo soup; going from one first world problem to the next (some of which involve virus-related emergency roadside stops); teasers for upcoming BaT events; a mutual yearning to get back out on track; and resurrecting Crashgate 2008.
