The One-Year Garage: 1984
Listen now
Description
In episode 95 of the BaT Podcast, Alex and Zac welcome podcast newcomer and BaT stalwart, the one and only Patrick Trautfield, to join them for the latest round of The One-Year Garage. This time, it's 1984—a more difficult field on which to play than any of the trio imagined, but fertile ground nonetheless. Topics include a heretofore unknown first BaT Podcast attempt in 2017; the first-gen Toyota Camry Solara, that relatively agreeable precursor to one of the worst-looking cars ever made; much-delayed impressions from Luft 10; the shocking and completely unexpected realities of Ferrari ownership; overly generous definitions of "family hauler"; #vanagonlife;  a Toyota trifecta; and a rowdy theme for the wild cards of the era.  Follow along! Links for the listings discussed in this episode: 1:44 23k-Mile 2001 Toyota Camry Solara SLE V6 Convertible and a bonus two-tone '99 coupe 21:47 1984 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE 5-Speed 22:47 Ferrari 288 GTO Ferrari.com 30:46 1984 Ferrari 400i 34:03 1984 Toyota 4Runner 4×4 5-Speed 37:57 Asphalt Heritage Tour Auto 2018 Lancia 037 40:20 Ex-Walter Rohrl 1983 Championship Winner: 1983 Lancia Rally 037 40:59 This dirty Group 4 Ferrari 308 GTB sounds incredible Road & Track 45:29 Honda Restored Its First Concept, the 1984 HP-X, for Pebble Beach Car and Driver 46:41 A Rare Group B Homologation Special: The 1984 Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 Silodrome Got questions for the BaT staff or suggestions for our next One Year?
