Car Trek

On today's episode of Car Trek, AutoTempest challenged us to find three of the world's cheapest, most depreciated supercars and meet up in Las Vegas for a series of challenges. Freddy chose a derelict Maserati Coupe GT "Trofeo Tribute" car, Ed brought an ex-cartel Aston Martin V12 Vanquish, and Tyler showed up in a Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG that was clearly NOT a supercar. But then we found out what was wrong with them...

On today's episode of Car Trek, AutoTempest challenged us to test our cheap supercars on an actual race track, and things take a turn almost immediately. Tyler's CL65 AMG reveals what "German reliability" really means, Ed's Aston Martin V12 Vanquish is hanging on by a thread, leaving Freddy's Maserati to defend the honor of cheap hoopties everywhere. No pressure.

On today's episode of Car Trek, AutoTempest challenged the guys to see how much their aging supercar hoopties would be worth as rentals on the Las Vegas strip, but Freddy's Maserati was a little under the weather. Tyler's CL65 AMG and Ed's Aston Martin V12 Vanquish were still going strong, although the opinion of Houston Crosta from Royalty Exotic Cars could definitely take the wind out of their sails.

On today's episode of Car Trek, AutoTempest challenged the guys to test their cars on a dry lake bed. The only problem is that it's 130 degrees outside and these cars weren't meant for that kind of climate when they were new. Ed's Aston Martin V12 Vanquish is barely a 4-banger at this point, Tyler's CL65 AMG breaks in a new and hilarious way, but Freddy's Maserati has been reborn in the form of a 2007 BMW M6, graciously negotiated by Ed. With friends like these, who needs enemies?

On today's episode of Car Trek, AutoTempest challenged the guys to test out each other's cars and tally up everything wrong with them. Ed's Aston Martin V12 Vanquish needs more pre-flight checks than the space shuttle, Tyler's CL65AMG is perfect except for some very unusual issues, and Freddy has TOTALLY REDEEMED HIMSELF and brought the Maserati back to life. Unfortunately it's still as rough around the edges as it was. Then the guys get their cars appraised by John Ficarra, an experience none of them will ever forget...or want to remember.
