Is it black and white or is it my color blindness?
That particular.
Oh, now there's colors.
All right.
Yeah.
There's definitely colors.
These are coloring in alphabetical order.
So now all these cars, you could have them delivered
at any one of the dealerships.
Yeah.
So I mean, it shows where they are, you know,
like that beige Audi.
And I don't know, I can't stand the color.
But I'm sure something like that.
SQ8.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's in Maryland.
It tells where they are.
It's golden sapphire.
Unless it's a Sahara or something like that.
It's golden talus.
I don't know what it is.
I don't think Audi calls it beige.
But you can see that we have the largest on here,
Porsches.
I mean, I don't know how many dealerships have 50 Porsches
that aren't a Porsche dealership.
And if you look in the top left one.
Wow.
Didn't you just sell that one?
We did not sell it.
It was a no-sail at the auction.
That's the one we picked over the 4.0.
I know.
I told him that.
We sold the 4.0.
But you know, I didn't know anything about this car.
But now it's like, you were telling me,
it's like the GT RS of the day.
They made like 10 or 12 of those cars.
You can see it's in perfect condition.
Came from a private collection.
And is an amazing spec.
So for those listening, this is a 59-356 GT.
It was not a Carrera.
It's not a 4-cam.
I think it was a pushrod engine.
But it had the GT in it that had aluminum body parts.
So 59 was a year that they extended the production of the Speedster.
58 is the last year of the mass production.
They made some speeches for special customers in 59,
and this is one of them.
So when we saw this in Monterey, it was pretty cool
because you don't see many 59s.
Our jaws dropped.
So I'm pretty sure your knowledge on this car is less than mine.
So who's managing how much that car should go for
and why didn't it sell at RM kind of a thing?
Well, so that was a car Harlan acquired.
He's really knowledgeable on these rare, rare cars.
And I just, I don't think the buyers were there.
If you were at that auction, Ferrari's were the king
that day on Saturday.
And it's a very obscure car.
I don't think we put enough publicity behind it.
I think that the story was told because I was at the auction
and it was just like reading what was on the screen.
The story was told, it would have sold.
But it's good that you have someone that knows
like we're going to hold and not just fire sale it.
Yeah, absolutely.
We're not, especially a car like that.
I think there's like 12 or 14 made and I don't know how many.
That's probably the perfect example of that specific vehicle.
So if you're out there and you're looking at a special,
an extra million dollars in the back of your pocket,
you should look at it.
So, I mean, that's a, that's a, from a Mercury Sable
to now cars that are in.
Well, these aren't my own cars, but I, you know.
I was going to ask now, you go for the inventory
and say, which ones of these can I buy for myself?
I'm not going to lie.
That does, does happen.
I bought an employee discount.
There was a 29 speedster paint the sample that I was like,
that one is not going on the inventory.
I am buying that one.
Cause I made a mistake of selling my, my Mexico blue one.
Yeah. I was, I don't know what I was thinking.
I'd make some bet.
You say I'm a good, trust me.
You should see some of the business decisions I make
on these cars when I try to sell them.
Like I sold my Ford GT in the blue color, the 0506 for like 260.
It's like a 450 car now.
Some of this stuff, I don't, I don't know.
Is your brother had the same taste in cars as you do?
He's a Ferrari guy, but he does have a 918,
which we're going to hopefully bring to your, the open house,
open house, but he's more of a Ferrari guy.
And I'm definitely more of a Porsche.
That can become pretty expensive.
Ferraris are you can have,
you can tame your Porsche having pretty expensive.
I'm like, I can buy five of these for that one car.
Like I'm much better off owning these five cars
versus that one car that you can't drive
because it's a manual.
Again, Aaron, I will teach you.
I will teach you.
That'll be awesome.
So Marshall Goldman, this inventory now,
does it rotate around the country or you just buy them
and then certain markets will end up with the cars
and you leave them there?
Or how does that work?
Yeah.
So because of shipping, as soon as we acquire the vehicle,
we send it to the location that's either closest
to where the car is located to minimize shipping costs
or where we think it's going to probably sell the best.
Although 80% of our customers don't live in the city
that the car actually resides in, right?
So take for a Maryland example, you know, of our inventory,
like 80% of those customers that buy from us live
outside of Maryland.
Oh, okay.
So, you know, in most of the cars we sell our site unseen,
I mean, we welcome people coming in and, you know,
we have an open showroom and, you know,
yesterday I had somebody hire a company
since they're not advertising out here.
I won't say who they are.
But send them out to look at the car and inspect it,
you know, before they bought it and we sent it to them.
I would imagine a lot of your business
is either word of mouth or through the internet
because your location isn't what I would consider
a, you know, off a major highway.
But one of Maryland is not correct.
It's something that, if you know, you go there and you...
Right.
It's visible from Dorsey Run.
But yeah, the ones in California know
Ohio are on a major road.
You're not lining your cars up on the front of the curb
with flags as people go by.
You know, it's a,
would you imagine a high-end place to be, you know?
It's like that audio place
that used to be on Hartford Road, I think,
where you'd never realize this place was there,
but they sold like a $10,000 turntables.
Really? Was this Speaker City?
No, I think it was called The Cerny Year.
Okay, that was a joke.
Yeah, it was just audio.
This was, I think, was called The Cerny Year.
But I remember it, from the outside,
you never knew it was an audio place,
but every audio file knew about this place
and would go there and would even blink
when you told them the turntables send grand.
You know, it was like, they expected it.
And I think almost this is,
you don't find Chevy Cobalt's at this place.
No.
Chevy Cobalt, huh?
Pulled that one out.
Man, I haven't heard that name in a while.
The Cobalt SS Great Car.
Remember those?
Not when you auto-cross it.
Not when you auto-cross it in the rear,
rear drums lock up.
Yeah, the front ABS is kicking in.
Well, whose Dodge Neon is that outside?
Because, uh, Dodge Neon.
No, I'm just kidding.
I can't really say it.
That's about as rare as,
I mean, mentioning a Chevy.
I almost wanted to go out and take a look at it.
I was like, I haven't seen a Neon out there.
I was expecting to roll up and see a,
I drove a Porsche today.
That's your, that's about it.
I drove my RS Spider and Signal Yellow.
Oh, you did?
Yeah.
Remember Harley, we're a non-profit here.
We don't have an inventory to choose from, like you do.
Hey, you know, is what, whenever you call me
and you say, could I borrow something?
You always, you always say yes.
You always say yes.
And I say, don't ground it.
I know, exactly.
Well, uh, so does the process, uh,
for refurbing the cars the same,
even though now you're Marshall Goldman,
like, do they have a URI
in all these locations to clean up the cars
and get them ready or?
So yeah, we do the same process, um,
in all the locations, um,
it's because we want to make sure,
again, we're, we're selling and disclosing
these cars as exactly what they, they are.
And, but the answer is yes.
And most, you know, I was shocked,
was shocked to find out that most companies
don't do that.
Most companies, I'm not going to name names,
but I've known for a fact,
because I know a lot of these, these dealers,
they, they don't put it through the process
that we do.
Yeah.
And that's fine, because most, you know,
buyer beware at all, but no different than,
like, bring a trailer, you buy a car,
and then you find out something was not as described
or wasn't noted, but I just want to do the right way.
So all I can speak for is what we do
and what we want to be accountable for,
and we want to be accountable for the highest standard.
So when you're buying from, say,
bring a trailer, cars and bids or wherever,
it might be, um, is it,
is it often that you get something
that you didn't expect or you have major issues?
So being as impulsive as I am.
Exactly.
I'm very worried when you're the purchasing person
in the company, because you just click,
I'm not, I'm not the purchase.
I told you I was banned from these auctions.
I was removed.
I was told, take the pass away and do not bid.
And I only bid on two cars, one both,
and I was via a phone call the night
before I went out to Monterey.
But maybe I bought 20 cars,
I'm bringing a trailer and I'd say
two or three had, were, were disappointing.
Yeah.
So a pretty low percent, you know,
but you got, you also learned a lot.
You learned a lot.
I mean, those were,
none of those cars were big, big,
you know, real expensive.
We're talking those 15,000, one was 40,
and then it was maybe another one
that was a little more money, like $125.
How many calls a day do you get from
brokers, people saying I have a car to sell you?
So since I don't handle that part
of the business anymore,
like I said, I am not allowed to buy.
Your phones are gonna start blowing up.
We're like, oh, that's a softie.
That's a softie.
No, he's one of the founders.
So they're going to be reaching out to him.
My brother and then Harlan are predominantly
the two buyers and they probably get
25 to 40 calls each a day.
I would say it's up to that.
Yeah.
And we're picky.
We're probably buying 10 to 20 percent
of the cars that are offered to us.
I'm sure there's other dealers that,
for some reason, can't sell this car
and they think, well, this is the kind
of car for such and such.
That's why there's mankind or auctions
like that, you know, where people
basically say, I, you know,
why is this car at an auction
that anybody can, because I don't know,
usually you have a problem with it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, but if you have the reputation
where you can have a smooth transaction
with Marshall Golden, just know
they know they have something valuable.
They're looking for a good price,
but they also don't want to publicize it.
They don't want to deal with tire kickers.
And they know that you'll give them
a decent price then.
You're hitting the nail on the head.
I mean, they don't want to put
the price, the vehicle out there.
Number one, number two is cash as king.
If you could pay quickly, that's what matters.
Yeah.
You know, when people, you get your great deals
on people, when people need to get rid
of these cars quickly and they need the money fast.
Yeah.
So, you know.
So that's, that's, that's one direction
of the transaction.
Like how do you, how do you protect yourself
when people, you said 80% of your cars
are going out of state and you site
on seeing you don't even know who
this person is.
How do you protect yourself in terms
of not being scammed in that car
going on a, you know,
container ship and then disappears
and the money that was quote,
quote, wired to you isn't good.
Like do you, how do you protect yourself?
When we buy the car or sell the car?
When you sell the car.
And I want to get into details on that
because I did have a car stolen from me
about a month ago.
Really?
Yeah.
A $400,000 Lamborghini Huracan
through a shipping scam.
No.
Yeah.
And it's still dicey.
But it's, you gotta, like we are
tightening up our systems to the,
like this specific situation was a
central dispatch, which we don't use anymore.
You mean the trucking company?
Central dispatch is basically a place
where you basically put your car online
and people will bid to transport it for you.
A lot of brokers go on there
and then they find drivers who don't
use that kind of technology.
And what happened, and this is definitely
like the big, you know,
you got to be very careful,
is that they somehow hack the driver
and rerouted the driver after he picked
the car up from California
to a mile away from the New Jersey port.
I've heard about this.
Not your case, but I've heard it happen
something similar.
Yep.
Yeah.
And basically the driver's just like
I'm following instructions.
I've been told to go out the car.
So like we have like tripled down
on how we go about shipping vehicles
because when I mentioned this to other people,
almost everybody has a similar story
that does volume where it's like,
yeah, I got a car stolen too.
Wow.
So yeah, that's a big deal.
Like transportation is a big deal
because one, you want to make sure
it gets there safely.
Right.
Undamaged.
Undamaged.
And you know,
I didn't think about the whole,
it might get stolen while it's being transported.
It is.
That's how like the goods on Fast and Furious
got stolen.
They took it from the truck.
The first one won.
Okay.
I remember one.
I don't, what are they after like 19 now?
He's the only one who's watched every single one.
I'm like, I'm done after four.
I don't know what else can happen,
but I'm done after four.
They made one going in 60 seconds.
Exactly.
Didn't have any other answer questions
different.
Exactly.
So yeah, it's, yeah,
that's the most difficult thing
right now is making sure that the vehicle gets
from A to B correctly on time.
Like my brother had a car,
he bought it in auction,
a really rare Mercedes.
And it was a very reliable carrier.
And they damaged the car.
It was coming out and whatever happened,
there was something happened
that the car hit the ground
in an inappropriate spot.
It was like a perfect storm.
Caused like $15,000 in damage.
They were a reputable carrier.
They covered it all.
No questions asked.
Did the right thing,
even though it was a really bad situation?
No, did they, did they fess up to it
or did you see it?
We saw it happen.
Oh, you saw it happen.
It was unloading the vehicle.
It was like a black.
How many of you,
how many of you seen the photo of that,
that roof that was on its tail end
that was being delivered?
Like that's,
that would be my fear, right?
Somebody just didn't pull the e-brake
or something and just roll.
Yeah.
Those are like one-off cars, right?
Yeah.
I mean,
when you get to a one-off car situation
where it's like,
you can't replace it.
Yeah.
I mean, that's where you really
got to be super careful.
So like, you know, these cars
that you buy at the auctions,
if you're buying like a really one-off car
or that guy that bought $26 million Ferrari,
I was in the room with that.
It was pretty fun.
Didn't you at one of the Rennesports,
wasn't Porsche 356 number one
in a situation like that?
At one Rennesport,
it was 98th for the parade in Canada.
It was being unloaded from a plane
and it was dropped.
Yeah.
It's, you wouldn't,
don't want to be on a receiving end
of that phone call when
he's living.
Buying cars as we're doing this.
I'm not buying.
I'm just showing you a bring-a-chair
or what I, what I liked.
You have a problem
and you've made a,
Do you want to tell people what this is?
It's a successful business out of it.
It's not a Porsche.
It's not,
but it's a very nice vehicle.
It's a Gaudi.
It's Gaudi.
It's very Gaudi.
It's a 10,000 mile,
2016 Rolls Royce Don.
And since this is being recorded,
nobody could bid against me.
It's just so Gaudi.
I just like, I mean, why not?
And you have to have the shoes to match.
I do.
Yeah.
Look, he's clicking.
Stop clicking.
Stop buying cars.
I'm just showing you this is a Porsche ST.
Oh, wow.
It's sold.
Mark is falling in love.
So that's a great segue.
The cars that you have bought,
you buy Primo cars.
And sometimes I hear you kind of
hymn and haw
that you're paying a premium price
for these cars,
but then you hold them for like
six months and you're getting,
you know,
a pretty good return on your money.
And like,
I mean, I do have,
you know,
I do buy cars as an investment.
I mean, there's very few cars I drive,
like a daily basis.
Like I just got that sport tourism.
I should have brought that here.
The Taycan.
Yes.
You got a smoking deal.
I know.
Actually, can we just,
we can talk about that one.
Yeah.
Can we talk about that one?
I mean, I don't think I'm going to sell it for a while.
And there's no reason to.
It's a 9,000 mile GTS sport
Turismo in ice gray metallic.
It was like a 150.
Taycan sport Turismo.
Yeah.
The wagon for those of you that don't know.
Yeah.
And I just,
wagons just sort of like the coolest thing now.
Sticker that what?
160?
158 ish.
Yeah.
9,000 miles, two years of warranty left,
CPO'd 86 grand.
CPO.
CPO too.
I know.
I mean, so.
But I don't think that's,
that's not the car where you're going to hold
for six months and sell it from.
No, that car is definitely not going up.
Do you have a charger in your house?
I do.
You guys?
Perfect.
Yeah.
I mean, you got to have a 220 these days.
But like the ones at the auction,
I definitely overpaid for them.
Yeah.
But it's like,
I just feel strongly that these older Porsches,
for example,
but one was a 97 Turbo S in yellow with 4,000 miles,
primo condition,
all the right options.
And you know,
I don't know if it's public knowledge,
but I paid with the fees like 780.
You know, a lot of money.
Yeah.
But I just feel like that color,
that car combination,
like I'm not selling that thing for a while.
And I just don't see the downside
if you have the money to spend it.
And I did sell my 20,000 mile 97 Turbo S
in black black to help fund it.
Wow.
You know,
which I did buy at an auction the year before
and that one appreciated $55,000.
Did you listen to our recent podcast
about the 993C4S and Oak Green Metallic?
Yes.
Did your jaw drop when you found out
how much I think it hammered for?
Yeah, just crazy.
But it's like those cars,
it's like, you know,
you know,
There's no more.
There's no more.
Find another.
Yeah.
I mean, they made what 183 Turbo S
for America 97
and how many have 4,000 miles in yellow?
Like we have one in our showroom
and it has 85 miles.
85?
It's a consignment car
and the ask from the consigner
is over 2 million.
Oh, God.
So
But we're also going to get a
it's if you want to find another.
Two-digit car, yeah.
So I mean, I was stretching
and it had not sold the other car.
I wouldn't have bought this one.
But, you know, I just,
I told the guy on the phone,
I didn't tell him that,
but I was like in my head.
I'm like, I'm not losing this car.
I'm not losing this car.
I came close.
I was like one bit away
from losing the car
because I was, yeah.
So you also add,
we kind of glossed over this.
So you have a facility,
more of a personal collection facility
or maybe where it gets rehabbed
not too far from here.
They're both, correct.
But you next to Mike Levitt's TPC,
you have your showroom
for Magnum Motors Now,
Marshall Goldman, right?
Correct, yeah.
I mean, that's an investment.
I mean, you did a nice job
in renovating all like,
you're 100% into this, man.
Yeah, oh, bro.
Look, you gotta do things one way
the right way, right?
And we are fortunate enough
to be able to have the funds
to do it the right way,
make a mistake
and be personally accountable for it,
but it's not gonna make or break us,
right?
Where when we were first building businesses,
you make the wrong mistake
and it could bankrupt you.
I own some restaurants too,
like we talked about.
And my first business I started
was actually a restaurant
when I was 26, 27 in Cleveland
and it was a failure.
That's a tough business.
Yeah, I took it.
We had a family restaurant too.
That also failed.
Restaurants are tough.
And I took with two other partners,
we did something great.
We took 350,000 and turned it into 30.
That's like racing.
It's restaurant weekend Bethesda.
We went to dinner on Monday
and the owner came out super nice
and he was talking about,
you know, he saw how nice our family was,
talking about his daughters.
And he was like,
he had 11 restaurants
and he's down to five.
And I said, you know,
he started rattling off
what his daughters do.
And not one of them
stayed in the restaurant business.
And I was surprised like, sir,
none of them are gonna take over your empire.
He said, absolutely not.
I told him to all run
from the restaurant business.
I mean, the hours,
the margins, the headaches,
it's, I don't know.
I mean, we opened Mikey and Mel's Deli
as a passion project for my dad.
So I didn't kind of tell the full story,
but my dad ended up retiring at 52.
He passed away at 66 from lung cancer,
stopped smoking for 10 years.
He was diagnosed in January of 2018,
was dead in August.
Wow.
And, you know,
what we wanted to do is
we wanted to pay homage to him
and my grandfather was Mel
who passed away in 78 years old,
in 06.
So we opened,
I just said,
how cool would it be?
Because we used to go to Delis all the time
to open a Deli or a restaurant
called Mikey and Mel's.
It just has such a great name to it.
And then we,
Right in your hood.
Right in my hood,
right in Maple on.
And then we did the car thing
where we have the car show,
which is,
I think the largest in Maryland now
where people come,
if you go to,
I think, Mikey and Mel's cruising.com,
you can see the dates,
but it's for charity,
it's for fun,
it's to help support the restaurant
and the community.
Nope.
And we have a lot of fun doing it
and you see people come out,
starts at 10 vu,
but people come at 7.
Yeah, I told my brother,
he goes,
what time should I get there
and get a spot?
I'm like,
8.30 should be fine.
I said,
I find out he parked
like almost in the last row.
It's crazy.
What time did you get there?
He goes,
8.30.
I'm like, wow.
Yeah.
I mean,
why say what time to be there
if you're just going to show up
whenever?
But those things are fun.
Like I feel like there's a sense
of community around car shows
and cars as well.
People tell a story.
It's like a picture's worth a thousand words.
You walked up to anybody
at those car shows
and asked about their car
and they will tell you a story.
Yeah, absolutely.
So we saw you in Monterey
selling through your website
and people that come
to the actual retail facilities.
That's standard,
but you're selling cars at RM,
other auctions as well.
Broad Arrow, yeah.
And Broad Arrow
who makes,
who arranges all that.
How does that all work?
Yeah, that's Harlan again.
So he's been dealing
with these auctions for a long time.
We buy cars to specifically
send them to those auctions.
Right.
So like most of those cars,
I think all but two,
were never listed online.
Like the 4.0 with 100 miles,
never listed online.
There was a Lamborghini Scion,
never listed online.
That Porsche,
until right now,
that was the only one
that didn't sell.
Never listed online.
So it's almost like,
we got to get those specifically
for those specific auctions
because we feel
that's the best avenue
to get the most money.
For those specific cars.
For those specific cars, yeah.
And then are they sold
under Marshall Goldman?
So it also gives some.
No, this goes to the auction.
We can put Marshall Goldman
tags on and stuff like that.
But yeah, when it's sold
to the auction,
there's no really mention
of the dealership.
Sometimes it's better that way.
Yeah.
And then how many cars
did Marshall Goldman buy
during Car Week this year?
Good question.
Because I wasn't allowed to be
in buying those cars.
So they bought the correct amount,
whatever that amount was.
I had to guess.
I think afterwards it was only like
five.
The market was pretty strong out there.
And we're buying based on rarity,
customer that might be looking
for something specific
or if it's a good deal.
It's hard.
I would say it's very hard
to find a good deal,
especially at Monterey
where there's a lot of limelight.
And then there's also some fever
of being in the crowd
and buying a car.
And good cars seem to have fetch
top dollar.
And then you always sometimes
forget about the auction fee.
Oh, yes.
What's the auction fee?
12% up to 250
and then 10% above that.
So you buy a car for 400.
That's going to cost you
another $45,000.
And you're like,
oh, and then by the way,
you're going to transport it
from California to Maryland.
That's another $2,500.
Oh, no, no, it's car week.
So they're going to double
the price of transportation.
So with the 356, it didn't sell.
We shipped it right to Beverly Hills.
That's where it's at right now.
Right now that car's expenses
just grew.
It didn't.
No, because if you don't sell,
well, we don't have
very expensive.
The car doesn't sell.
Just a transportation cost.
Right.
Assuming that we transported,
which we did in this case
from Cleveland,
but we have a place
in Beverly Hills
right down by Rodeo Drive.
And we just shipped it back up there.
So just the cost of doing business.
Yeah, but bring a trailer
charges you to flat feet
no matter what.
No, bring a trailer charges you
5% up to $7,500.
So if the car's a million,
it's still $7,500.
Right.
So it maxes out at $150,000.
To list it?
To list it,
I don't know what they charge you.
I think maybe a couple hundred bucks
maybe.
But the buyer pays the fee.
I'm saying to sell it
when it doesn't sell.
Yeah, I think there's a very
nominal fee,
maybe $100, $200.
We do a very little
on bring a trailer.
So I'm not a hundred percent sure on that.
Oh, so if you don't...
And they're not a sponsor.
So actually, we are working
with them on a program.
So they might be stepping up.
And we've had some positive
conversations.
It's fun to watch.
I mean, you could see my phone.
I had like nine things saved.
Exactly.
Anything else is coming up.
Here's another one.
He's got all these alerts.
Oh, Mice and Blue.
Let's see.
I have a Mice and Blue Speedster.
Not Speedster.
Now, which auction do you
like to watch in person?
Do you like the RM style?
Or do you like the Meekum style?
I like that.
I mean...
Don't badmouth people.
Just say what you like.
I'm not badmouthing it.
I'm just saying it's sensory overload
when you go to Barry Jackson or Meekum.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, they think it was so quick.
By design.
Not only that, but it's like,
I'm like, what is going on?
What are they even saying?
I have to look at the readout to see.
It's fun to watch on TV.
Because, you know, but when you're in person,
it is, you know...
I believe they're in person
and it moves so quick.
Literally, you go up to the bathroom.
They've gone for two cars already
and you don't know what happened to the car
you were watching because...
Or the car is already off stage,
but they're still bidding.
I always say the RM
gooding is very more gentlemanly.
It's slower, you know, it's left and right.
You got somebody speaking in a British accent.
Exactly, where Meekum was super fast.
The cars differ, obviously.
You know, they always have one day
where there's real expensive cars,
but a lot of times they're a lot less expensive.
But it's entertaining to watch on TV,
especially the old ones,
because I used to watch that auction with my dad.
All right, last question.
Five years from now,
what are we going to be talking about?
In regards to cars or life?
Cars, Marshall Goldman.
Like, I feel like you're going to open
a transportation company because...
There is zero chance
I'm going to ever open a transportation company.
Yeah, never, never open that.
Well, odds are, based on what I've heard this past hour,
you're going to be starting another business in five years.
Maybe. I mean, look, our goal is to grow this business
and make it a net...
If you think about used cars,
there's Carvana,
there's Carmax, there's Vroom.
Like, there's no exotic car brand around the country.
So I'd like to open enough where logistically it makes sense.
So if you buy a car in the middle of the country,
you can send it logistically to a point
that's not going to cause, you know,
from California to Ohio, it's chipping.
And it's to have a national brand.
So I think Marshall Goldman is going to be...
And Marshall Goldman, by the way,
actual Marshall Goldman himself is still alive,
comes into the office a lot,
and he's still a big car enthusiast.
But we really want to kind of blow that name up.
Across the country.
So that's kind of our five-year plan
through either merger and greenfield,
or organic growth.
Five years, I see the Browns winning the Super Bowl.
Okay, and we're going to move on.
I was going to ask you about that.
Before we get to the sports.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You need to go to Baltimore
because that's what the Browns did.
Okay, well, first of all, I am not a Ravens fan.
So...
Come to the winters.
And this is where you lose Ville.
Whoa, whoa, this is where we lose Manny.
He goes the way out, he ain't driving home.
Well, first of all, thank you.
You supported, people don't know,
other than what they may have seen online.
But thank you for always supporting and saying yes to when we needed cars
and inviting us to the near dealership
and access to your folks.
And even as next week where we've asked you
to bring some cars for the open house,
you've always said yes.
So I want to thank you for that.
I want to wish you the best of luck
with Marshall Goldman
and all the other endeavors that you have.
But I don't think you need luck
because, as I said earlier...
Everybody needs a little luck.
But I got to tell you one thing, Vue,
I don't want to interrupt you,
but there is nobody happier than Vue.
And ever see Vue, this is such an easy guy to deal with.
And anytime you see him,
he is the happiest guy around no matter
what situation is going on.
So it's really a pleasure to work with you.
Thank you.
I always wonder what's going to be that click
that makes him just lose it like a postman.
It's possible, it's possible.
But...
He's got the best job.
He's the happiest human ever alive.
He's got great kids.
And he's a lot slimmer than he was six months ago.
I know.
He's looking great.
We are all very fortunate to be where we're at.
So with that, let's head over to...
Oh, before Porsche News,
just to make sure to remind you to sign up
for PCA's newsletters,
performance news, e-brake news,
and Mark Fresh, all free again, PCA.org.
Jumping into Porsche News.
This one's about halting.
And we're talking about batteries.
Yeah, so obviously with China,
the Chinese market and UVs just killing Porsche
with that side of their business.
Porsche was doing everything in preparation
for a huge Chinese market, which is not going to come.
I don't think it's going to improve anytime soon.
So they're making adjustments as any business would.
And one of their businesses,
they had purchased a cell force,
which they were going to use to produce batteries,
is now pivoting to be a R&D for batteries.
And it's all due to a Chinese market.
They just can't support UVs,
but Porsche still is in the UV game.
They're not throttling back as far as what direction
they're going to be going in.
It's just they're not going to be producing as much
because of the Chinese market.
Speaking of electric vehicles and such,
we have word on the Cayenne.
So nothing new to Cayenne has everyone knows
it's going to be going electric,
but they still will be making a gas version
and a hybrid version.
So you're going to have to read essentially three
different choices to make.
The electric version has remembered to be
a thousand horsepower for the turbo model.
And yes, I know the UV has no physical turbo inside
of it, but turbo is the top of the line.
They think the base is going to be 500 horsepower,
and then the S will be somewhere in between,
probably 700, 750.
So it'll be a formidable SUV.
I can tell you have heard from some insiders,
enthusiasts that did get to spend time
with the electric Cayenne,
regardless if you're in favor of the EV movement
or not, as far as performance,
they were incredibly impressed.
What's that part called you replaced on your Cayenne,
on the drive shaft?
Oh, the the carton shaft.
Yeah, you don't have a drive shaft on a UV.
You don't. And you also don't have coolant pipes.
And no transfer cases.
It's it's two electric motors on each end
that are wonderful for off-road.
And the power and the torque.
I'm sure you've enjoyed the the GTS.
I mean, well, you've had plenty of Porsche EVs as well.
And you had the Taycan.
Sorry, I had the Taycan when it first came out
in Mamba Green.
Yeah, it built so much better than your use case works,
because you were not really traveling that far
every day and you can plug in at home.
Yeah, that's that's right.
And they're built amazing compared to.
And they feel like a Porsche.
So that's how it feels like a Porsche.
Exactly.
You can use mine whenever you want.
Thanks, man.
I was I was looking at Manny.
We can make a permanent part of this show.
What are you trying to get a seat on the
at this table or something?
It's a small table.
Perhaps as everyone says,
perhaps as the newest sponsor,
you can get us a bigger table.
Interesting.
PC events, as we've mentioned before,
the September 13th, our open house,
our 70th anniversary celebration is sold out.
I'll be there.
You'll be there.
We look forward to seeing everyone.
Oonstock is November 16th.
That Porsche Santa Clarita registration
will be opening September 3rd.
Recent video that dropped,
you lent us a Guntherworks car
for a video before and we got to
hang out with Peter Naum
and the Guntherworks folks at Laguna Seca
and we introduced the F-26.
I saw that sick car.
It is sick and of course only 26 of them
and only about half of them will stay state side.
The other half are heading overseas 800 to 1000 horsepower
depending on the fuel that you put that thing in.
And I put in there.
Oh, it's crazy.

I want one of those.
I bought a PCA jacket at the Works reunion.
Why don't you sell that on the website?
Those went out while they're limited edition.
They were very affordable.
I know.
They sold out.
They were like hotcakes.
They're preteros, I think.
That was really nice.
They had like the Club Crooked Carrier.
The $85 one.
Yeah, super nice.
Everyone loved it.
And it was kind of chilly that day too, so.
That's why I bought one.
We ordered up the right weather.
Anything else from you, Damon?
Nope, I'm good.
You talked about the video, so you did my job.
Oh, yes.
We were efficient.
Manny, anything else before we wrap this one up?
Harley, anything else?
Yeah, go to marshalgoleman.com.

We pay top dollar.

That's two new corporate sponsors for PCA.
And I just gave you already.
Here we go to Mikey and Mel.
Yeah, I should have brought food.
They might fall, by the way.
They do not have anything such as a small sandwich.
Yeah, you go there with the big appetite.
You will not be here.
We have regular and Manny size.
They're old Manny.
The current Manny can't eat that.
I can take stuff home every time.
We have salads.
