In the automotive world, designers and stylists tend to be better-known than engineers. Makes sense since we all have an aesthetic, while few of us understand the intricacies of automobiles mechanics without having our eyes glaze. Who are the men that stand out with their design achievements? In AutoHunter‘s Drive the Bid Podcast for this week, Derek Shiekhi, Luke Lamendola, and I each have selected a choice designer and several of his cars.
For news, we discuss the Piëch GT, a 1000-horsepower concept from a startup called Piëch Automotive run by Anton “Toni” Piëch (son of the late Ferdinand Piëch of Volkswagen Group) and Tobias Moers (past CEO of Mercedes-AMG and Aston Martin). The plan is for the car to start around $200,000 and be built by Multimatic, but you know how that goes . . .
We also have several memes that were created by us, including one Luke did goofing on me, which means I have to plan a revenge!
And, of course, our AutoHunter picks, which include a funky 1999 Mitsubishi Toppo BJ, 1981 Datsun 280ZX Turbo, and an absolutely fabulous fuel-injected 1961 Chevrolet Corvette.
