In today’s episode of The Knocking Rod podcast, I talk with my good friend and local Seacoast car guy Jon Gaffney. His first car, a 1992 Nissan Maxima, is a ride you don’t see too much on the road these days. But man, who wouldn’t rock one of these under-the-radar ‘90s gems today?!
The First Car
We talk cars that, though not necessarily bad, left Mr. Gaffney hanging. Like a 2004 Honda Civic - gray on gray with a 5-speed - that was unexpectedly unreliable and a 2009 Mercedes Sprinter van with a challenging transmission. A van that Jon built out for some cross-country camping fun.
The Challenging Cars
Last up, the dream car. A tough choice for any serious car guy, but Jon picks a serious winner in the form a BMW E36 Touring with an S52 or S54 swap. He currently drives a drool-worthy E90 Touring with a 6-speed that is trimmed in Montego Blue over a Saddle Brown interior. Oh yeah.
The Dream Car
Hope you enjoy the episode and thanks for listening!
