Sometimes when we’re filming and things go wrong it's out of our control. Other times it’s a result of our complete and utter stupidity. Thomas and James discuss all the times we’ve had to face the consequences of our actions. Like when we accidentally jumped a Land Cruiser and broke it - or when we put a new Mercedes into a snowy ditch. Sit back and grab a hot beverage for another Extra Throttle House Couch Chat! We hope you enjoy the episode. SUBSCRIBE!

The 2022 Jaguar F-Type R AWD ($136,760 in Canada, $121,800 in the US) is a supercharged V8 sports coupe, with an exhaust note that backs up its ferocious looks. Optioned as an R model with its available 575 horsepower engine and all-wheel drive, Jaguar claims a rapid 3.5 seconds 0-60 mph time. But how does it perform when driven spiritedly, or used as a daily driver? And at its price point, how does it compete with some rather serious competition? Thomas and James aim to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode. Subscribe!!

Thomas and James have PURCHASED two ‘80s hatchbacks - the 1986 Toyota Corolla AE86 and the 1984 Volkswagen Rabbit GTI. James bought his Sprinter Trueno sight-unseen and promptly decked it out in full Initial D livery, as one does. Thomas spent only a few moments with his stock Mk1 GTI before shipping it off for adventure. A 1000 mile road trip across the desert lies before them. In their journey to reach enlightenment, the cars will likely be pushed to their limits. Let’s see what two classic ‘80s hot hatchbacks can do! We hope you enjoy the first ever episode of the Throttle House Adventure Series.

#ae86 #roadtrip #gti

The 2023 Corvette C8 Z06 ($106,000 in the US, $128,000 starting in Canada) aspires to achieve a formidable goal: to slay supercar titans and crush its competition for a fraction of the cost. The mad scientists at Corvette say they designed it to have both the soul of a Ferrari 458 and the clinical speed of a Porsche GT2 RS. An extremely bold claim.

670 horsepower. 8600 rpm redline. This is the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in any production car ever. Will it be able to live up to its mighty expectations? Thomas and James aim to find out. We hope you enjoy the episode. Thanks for watching! SUBSCRIBE!

#Z06 #Corvette #Jorts

The 2022 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 ($116,890 in Canada, ~$85,145 in the US) is the latest and most ridiculous off-roader from Stellantis. It’s powered by a beastly 6.4 L V8 HEMI, with 470 horsepower and an exhaust system to match its large-and-in-charge nature. But if sounds and speed aren’t enough to make you giggle, then perhaps the upgraded 35 inch tires and FOX suspension system are more your thing. Although it does have some pretty tough competition in this segment - namely the Bronco Raptor. Thomas and James spend some time with the new Wrangler Rubicon 392 and dive into what it’s all about.

In a previous video we worked a deal for a client in Pennsylvania who wanted to trade their 2013 Toyota Sienna for a new Mercedes-Benz GLE350. All the kids were out of the house and off to college and the family no longer had a need for the minivan.

We made the deal easy for the client and he in return was honest with us about the condition of his van. It was a very nice trade overall, unfortunately not the type of vehicle that we could keep to re-sell. The expectation level that comes with any pre-owned vehicle sold from a Mercedes-Benz store is too high to sell cars this old with imperfections, even when consumers generally would have lowered expectations for a vehicle of this age. The brand has a halo effect! #toyota #cars #dealership #luxurycar #carsales #mercedes #sienna #trade

In this exclusive behind-the-scenes video, we're exploring a common dilemma luxury car buyers face: paying cash versus choosing a single-pay lease. Join us as we discuss with a salesperson the case of a client considering these two purchasing options and uncover the significant savings and benefits of each method.

We'll detail how a single-pay lease, where the entire lease amount is paid upfront, can secure you a substantially reduced lease rate and qualify you for exclusive incentives—such as a $7,500 rebate available only on leased electric and plug in hybrid vehicles. Discover how strategic financial decisions can maximize your savings while still giving you the flexibility of leasing.

Go inside the sales manager's office and witness firsthand how these complex deals are structured, negotiated, and finalized. Plus, gain insights into trade appraisal strategies, dealership decision-making processes, and expert advice for making the best financial choices when buying or leasing a luxury vehicle.

If you're passionate about automotive industry insights, dealership strategies, trade appraisals, and professional car-buying advice, this video is essential viewing.

🔑 Topics Covered:

Cash purchase vs. Single-pay lease

Benefits and savings of single-pay leases

Capturing lease-only incentives ($7,500 rebate) for EV's and Plug In Hybrids

Inside look at dealership negotiations

Trade appraisals and deal structuring

Behind the scenes working a new car lease for a current Tesla driver who contacted us from out of state. He’s interested in a Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV but is unhappy with his trade number and wants to put that entire amount of money down towards the lease.

We discuss how to uncover objections when someone tells us they want to think about it by using the “scale of 1 to 10” question, and also why putting too much money down on a lease is risky. #cars #mercedes #benz #tesla #ev #behindthescene #pov #suv #viralvideo #fyp

Dealerships selling cars out of state need as many friends in the titling / registration world as they can get. Making the process easy for those clients is massively important. @DLRdmv has helped us to make our out of state process even better than ever. #car #dealership #mercedes #benz #amg #g63 #cle53 #amggt #gt

There’s a lot of fancy PR out right now, but nobody has really said anything about how they’re actually handling the tariffs on imported vehicles that aren’t already on the ground. #mercedes #tariffs #car #dealership

HUGE news from Mercedes as they tell dealers they will be price protecting all model year 2025 cars until further notice. #tariffs #mercedes #car #dealership

3 accidents on this car… would you consider buying it? #car #dealership #automobile

Even if you’ve always had a co-signer when buying a car, you get equal credit and benefit which will help you when you’re ready to buy by yourself for the first time.

This client is looking at a new Mercedes GLA250.

We explore all inventory possibilities and trade avenues to find the best possible deal for our clients. We especially love when our VIP’s come back to us over and over as the trust has already been built and we can guide them to the best possible situations that meet their needs and wants when buying a new car. This client was considering a Brass Hat which is the name for a demo car that was driven by a Mercedes-Benz executive. This was a 2024 Mercedes GLE350.
