00:00Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 2025 New York International Auto Show, our second year
00:05getting behind the rope access, and we're starting it off at none other than the Manhattan Motorcars
00:09booth. Huge thank you to Alan Lambeau for letting us behind. While we're walking over to the Rimax
00:13section, I would like to make note that this is the car show that got me into cars. I've been
00:17coming here since I was like eight years old, so I can't miss a year. We come every single year.
00:22I don't think I came in 2022. Starting off with none other than the 1,914 horsepower, 1.7 second
00:30zero to 60 Rimac Nevera. Folks, first of all, this is for sale. Second of all, those stats are very
00:35impressive, but it comes at a hefty price tag. The base price of that car is $2.2 million. And
00:42of
00:42course, the inspiration for the Rimac Nevera, the Rimac Concept 1. I don't know much about it. I don't
00:47know if it drives, but it looks cool. For the sake of me not knowing much about it, we're going
00:51to
00:52skip over the million and a half dollar Ferrari 250 SWB, which I do know stands for short wheel
00:57base. So we're learning a little bit. Next up, we learned a little bit about the Tetson Daydream,
01:03which is based off a 964 platform, but it's a complete resto mod. Hopefully, we'll be able to get
01:08some shots inside. Folks, two cars that we've seen before on the channel, the Lamborghini Eros SE, which
01:12is the best sounding hybrid on the market, and it's an 800 horsepower beast. Right next to it, also will
01:18look familiar. The Taycan Turbo GT YZAC, which is an electric 1,000 horsepower track car. We did a
01:24whole video on it. Check it out. Check it out. It's fine. Ladies and gentlemen, two years ago, we were
01:27on
01:27the other side of the ropes, and now we have plush chairs. Manhattan Motorcars, thank you dearly for
01:31the hospitality. Moving on. This one right here is a first for Christian cars. The all-new 992.2 911
01:38Carrera GTS,
01:39which is a six-cylinder hybrid. I don't have the specs on it, but it's a nice little refresh. It's
01:46not terribly different than the 992.1, but subtle tweaks, and it looks good. No more manual. We just
01:53got word that there's no more manual in the 992.2. Very sad. Very, very sad. On a happier note,
01:59well,
01:59we lost the V10, so it's not that much happier, but listen, we lost the V10. We got 10,000
02:05RPM.
02:05So are we really losing here? It's still a 900 horsepower twin-turbo V8. The platform's
02:11going to be incredible. The car looks incredible, and I'm super excited to see it in not the launch
02:15spec. The matte blue is cool, but I love seeing them in like actual just plain specs, like the
02:21white with the red calipers, black wheels, red interior. So good. Next up out of the Lotus section,
02:27folks, the all-new Amira, which it's been out for like two years. I don't know why I call it
02:31all new.
02:31Actually a cool color. And then this, which I don't know much about at all,
02:34and I feel like hasn't been getting the attention it might deserve. The Lotus Vibe. No, no, no. Wrong.
02:41The Lotus Electra. Anyway, two more cars here. The 964 from Sacrilege, which is a full EV,
02:49hence the name Sacrilege. And it's another complete resto mod, a little bit like the Tetson,
02:54but the Tetson has a motor. Same, same, but different, different. And last but not least,
02:59we have to talk about the egg. The fully exposed red carbon fiber, carbon fiber wheels, carbon fiber
03:05splitter canards. The whole thing's car. Don't exegregate. We've left them in a motorcars booth,
03:10but the supercars don't end right over my right shoulder. We have a convertible Ford GT,
03:15which Ford never made. Shout out to the guy who is willing to cut a roof off of a half
03:19a million
03:20dollar limited production car. Right next to that, we have a 992 GT3 RS with a livery delete
03:24on aftermarket wheels. And next to that, a tire stickered Ferrari SF90 Spyder. For the first time
03:31ever, forever in the entire world, You Don't Stop Hip Hop has been written on the tire of a half
03:37a
03:37million plus dollar supercar. You'll never see it again in your entire life. Now that we've covered
03:41the supercars, let's talk concept cars, because there's a couple of good ones here. On the topic
03:45of concepts, Hyundai and Genesis are the kings of making concept cars and not producing them. But the
03:51one to my right here is very cool. It looks like a luxury off-roading SUV, EV. Folks, the taillights
03:59wrap around almost the entire car. So do the headlights. It's on off-road massive tires, but
04:04the interior is like luxury quilted leather. So there's a lot going on. I'm not sure I know where
04:09to place it, but I promise you it's not coming to the streets near you anytime soon. You can have
04:14dinner on that hood and I guarantee you there's no engine in there. I guarantee it. It looks, it just
04:19looks like an EV. I'm almost positive it's an EV. Why is the hood so long? I've seen two-tone
04:23interiors.
04:24I have. I do a lot of car spotting, but I've never seen the left side of the door blue,
04:30the right side
04:30of the door tan, and it be separated vertically. Usually it's like the top and the bottom. And then
04:35the top of the seats are blue and the bottom of the seats are brown. It's a lot. There's a
04:40lot of
04:40colors. There's a lot of two tones. Inside it looks like a Maibach. Outside it looks like a Rivian
04:45Bronco Raptor. We're not sure if this one right here is a concept or an actual produced vehicle
04:50because we've never seen it before. We were expecting it for a while. They only had sedans
04:54in their lineup and their sedans were great. Some of you might remember we did have a Lucid Air Grand
04:58Touring for 24 hours and it was an incredible experience. Almost a thousand horsepower. I do kind
05:04of have mixed feelings design wise on this car, but I'm sure it's going to be an awesome daily driver.
05:09And like I said, it was coming for a long time. Lucid, if you're watching this, please let us borrow
05:13one
05:13for 24 hours. We'll give a more comprehensive review. Folks, we just found out that this has
05:16a max horsepower rating of 828 horsepower. It has up to 450 miles of range and can charge up to
05:23200
05:24miles in just 12 minutes and a 0 to 60 of 3.4 seconds. It also seems like they're not
05:29letting
05:29anybody in the car, so it's probably a concept. This right here might be my favorite concept of
05:34the entire show. The Kia Weekender, spelled W-K-N-D-R. It's not an RV, but it's like a
05:41Weekender.
05:42Like you would take it on a two, three day camping trip. It has a little pop-up tent. The
05:46roof
05:47completely opens up. It's like glamping. Like you're not rugged and going camping if you bring
05:52your Kia Weekender. If you're going to camp like a real man, you bring a tent, some sticks, and a
05:57couple of s'mores. If you bring the Kia Weekender, you're glamping. But that's probably how I would do
06:02it and it looks really fun and I would love to see the inside of it. Up front, you have
06:05some good
06:06practicality with a winch, what looks like a charge port right above it. I know I said this looks like
06:10it
06:10would be used for glamping, but it also looks like something that an astronaut would drive if
06:14he was exploring Mars. You also have levels on each of the wheels and I couldn't even guess what
06:19that's for. Why would anybody care if the wheels are leveled or not? Before we wrap up, folks, I have
06:23good news, bad news. Good news, the whole Corvette lineup is here. We have the Stingray, we have the
06:28E-Ray, we have the Z06, and we even have the ZR1. The bad news, this is the first New
06:33York
06:33International Auto Show I've been to with no Camaros. I hope this is some April Fool's like
06:38we'll be back soon kind of thing and the Camaro comes back in 2026. If they make it an EV,
06:43I'm
06:44never buying a Chevy again. Anyway, the 2025 New York International Auto Show has been a fantastic
06:49trip. It's a great show every single year and we'll see you on the next one.
