They are fine as long as you put a liter of oil in every 10 kilometers and do a complete oil change every 500 kilometers. Until the world runs out of oil.
Here's my picks. 5k - Saab, no question. 10k - The E38 is just menacing man, can't avoid it. 30k - Lotus, but I don't deny the Land Cruiser is pretty cool 50k - ZL1. Sorry Pajero. 100k - Ultima track car. Kinda unbeatable. 250k - SLS is just unmatched coolness. The design. The sound. The experience. Unmatched.
Agree with everything, except the 5k both kinda lost to me...😅 And 100k i would take the R8, simply because it´s actually usable and the automatic only was always the one single deal breaker for me with this car.
i like how James puts out just the coolest cars u can find for a set amount of money and then choose the most bland one of all the options, love the content by the way.
Another new watch for Thomas … this time a Mido Ocean Star GMT. I’ve had my eye on that one for a while, but my wrists are too skinny for it. We have the same taste in watches, brother, but your Speedmaster is beyond my budget. This Mido is more like it for me. BTW, I’m Jay … you drove my Testarossa two years and two million subscribers ago! And, yes, the TR is the reason I can’t afford expensive watches. 🤷♂️
My used first car was an 81 Saab 900 turbo. I loved that car so much. Drove it to 200k miles. Often the dashes cracked, the glove box door warped and the head liner droopped but other than that they were pretty solid. I only got rid of it as the specialty mechanic went out of business.
My brother had one and loaned to me for one year while I was in grad school. I loved it. I still love it. Even though it wouldn’t start if there was a cloud in the sky. I carried gas with me and dripped it in the carburetor I think. Other than that a near-perfect design. Owned a 9-5 and a 9-3 sport wagon. Be very happy if someone made a SAAB-like fastback now. Sticking with my 2012 Acura ZDX for the time being.
@@YelCan I got pretty lucky the previous owner took good care of of it being 10yrs old at the time and I made sure to maintain it well. I later got a 95 used but the GM electronics really were an issue. So many gremlins, I finally had to trade it in. Oddly a coworker was jealous of it and thought it was some kind of luxury exotic. I’m dude it’s the same price as a nicer Honda Accord.
Ah wow!! A 80's Saab 900S. That was my first car! Also with the red velour interior. I only had a wooden dash front. Loved it. I called it Leopard after the tank ;)
Yeah lower production value and the RUclips algorithm is weird. If they posted stuff like this on the main it wouldn’t get recommended as much by the algorithm because it already has that channel in a niche(car reviews) so anything that isn’t a car review wouldn’t get pushed the same. Like the other comment said a separate channel helps them get properly promoted in the algorithm
Love this! My two brothers and I, as children, frequently played this game while on the road in the back seat of our K-car station wagon. In the end, my cement truck would inevitably drive over all my brothers' choices, making me the winner. Anyway, the game is much different when you can actually afford and get the cars you dream about. Cheers to that!
LAND CRUISER awesome choice. If it weren't for the gas mileage I would loooove one of these. I wish yall would make one of these types of discussion videos per month!
Saw a Phantom for the first time a few months ago. Its proportions really don’t compute. It’s genuinely full size SUV sized but styled like a sedan. It’s nuts.
Used to live on a steep hill in the PNW. Someone at the top of the hill bought a ZL1. Was always really fun to watch them try to get up the hill after a surprise rain.
This is so smart on Doug’s part. Pair up with another popular channel, let them list your cars for free and make some content in exchange. Saab was a solid choice. Theyre so quirky. I was always more of a Volvo fan but both were cool.
This is great. I wish car RUclipsrs would do more rallys and road trips content together. Like Hammond, James, and Clarkson have always done, but with different groups and styles. That would be AWESOME! I hope Hammond can use Drive Tribe to do this with the trio and other creators.
I really enjoy watching you guys look at lower price points too like the 10k sports car video you did and this is fun to see what you can get for not a lot of cash but still have fun
That F80 M3 in Sakhir Orange is fire (although the pics make the color look better than I've seen of it in real life...maybe just needs lots of sun). Also, the RX8 beats the Saab in the $5K category. If the engine blows, you just get to do a fun LS swap. So even if you lose, you still win!
If we're doing a full garage, here's what I'd pick: $5k '96 Nissan 300zx (manual) $10k '85 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4×4 $30k '59 Cadillac Sedan/Wagon $50k Factory Five Racing GTM $100k RCR 962 or XJ13 or GT40 or 917 $250k Halo Warthog (decommissioned)
I pretty much would've gotten all the "Here's what I didn't do" choices from James 😅 First and foremost, the firetruck - my kids would love that thing! And I never would've taken Thomas for an SUV/Offroader kinda guy...
I'm on Thomas' side here. The Ultima is such a rare scare for driver and passenger, it's epic. Pajero and Phantom are on my wishlist, so: Thomas wins - in my eyes.
OMG!!!! ... I can't remember when I had to watch that many ads in a 30 min vid. Unreal. Felt like every 3 minutes Id get a double dose of unendable crap. Tx for that!!
All the Monteros/Pajrios have those full tool kits in the rear door. I had a 2001 Montero Limited new, which was one of my favorite SUVs I've had especially in the snow and offroad although the 16 mpg of premium was tuff. I'd didn't care that much back then but with today's fuel prices I'm much happier with the 30 mpg of my Grand Cherokee Ecodiesel!
E38 notes, I had a late production Steel Blue Metallic (the last run for N/A with the last color) but I had the iL, which if you look, production dates are close to 9/11.
5k 1960 AMC Rambler Wagon. 10k C5 Vette. 30k low mileage E60 M5. 50k 2014 GT500. 100k no clue what all is really in this price range. 250k I agree with the 2018 Phantom lol.
My first car after i got my driving license was a Saab 9.3 Cabrio. I saved up almost 4k and wanted a cheap BMW back then. My Mum and Dad wanted a "safe" car for me. So they doubled my budget and talked me into either a Volvo or a Saab. We found that beautiful looking white 9-3 Cabrio with the 2L engine for 7,25k. And the rest is history. Up untill today im rocking "swedish" cars. M current daily is a Volvo XC90. So +1 for the Saab pick! 😃
WOOHOO! The Auctions for ToeFoo And Shnitz went LIVE with the release of this video. Place your bid here: crsnbds.com/ThrottleHouse
Absurd that Shnitz already has a bid on it. WHERE ARE MY TOEFOO PEOPLE AT
The link isn't working for me...
Great 'Bullseye' reference from James at 11:55.
I'd have thought he was too young.
Good luck guys! 🤞🏼
James moved up to a MacBook instead of a dell laptop 😂
As much as I thoroughly enjoy the guys over on Throttle House, the couch chats with the Extra Throttle House guys are unmatched.
Maybe one day they’ll meet and we can see all four of them.
a 20 min monthly segment called "kickin tires" is neeed
@@lebojayone can only dream
@@lebojayHave you seen Batman and Bruce Wayne in the same room?
“Suicide engine too” lmao
Ironic that Thomas' next pick was a 23 year old BMW 740i.........

They are fine as long as you put a liter of oil in every 10 kilometers and do a complete oil change every 500 kilometers.

Yay Extra Throttle House couch is back
couch is my second favorite character in this series
Chortle Houch.
Casting House
Lmao the dog walking on the back of the couch like a cat
Yeah, that was absolutely incredible
Smaller dogs will do that all the time if you don't forbid it. The size is right.
@@MumrikDK my dog isn't small and he does that I think he just believes he is a cat not good for the couch but he somehow looks comfortable..
More dogs on throttle house!!
Dog EASILY stole this ep
Enjoyed all the contributions from "Throttle House" dog.
I love how Tofu listing doesn't have any mention of the awesome Japanese writing on the side
Please be the new cast of The Grand Tour
With the addition of Chris Harris.
In France we had RUclipsrs do a season of Top Gear and it was not great.. TV is a whole other challenge 😬
Rather not, I don’t want Amazon limiting them or stopping them from being authentic.
No. Big companies always fuck car content up by controlling what the host/presenter says.
Please don't, and continue to do what you do!
The Dog won
Here's my picks.
5k - Saab, no question.
10k - The E38 is just menacing man, can't avoid it.
30k - Lotus, but I don't deny the Land Cruiser is pretty cool
50k - ZL1. Sorry Pajero.
100k - Ultima track car. Kinda unbeatable.
250k - SLS is just unmatched coolness. The design. The sound. The experience. Unmatched.

And 100k i would take the R8, simply because it´s actually usable and the automatic only was always the one single deal breaker for me with this car.
“Suicide doors, suicide engine too” lol
Hilarious!
YES 30 minutes of throttle couch 👍
How cool was that impromptu dog appearance with an ear lick as it strolled by! Haha! Love it.
I would not be surprised if Cammisa ended up the high bidder for Schnitz. It would fit very well in his collection with the Cabbie.
a fellow hagerty enthusiast I see 🎉
i like how James puts out just the coolest cars u can find for a set amount of money and then choose the most bland one of all the options, love the content by the way.
Both lists are honestly great! This was a really fun chat/theme, well done as always.
740i E38 wins out of all the price points. God damn that car is amazing.
Throttle couch!!!
James.... you got me with that Camaro lol you win the 50k bracket
This will certainly be one of the videos of all time
Yes it will
"many cool and *usual* vehicles" but seriously this is a great video
More videos like this please! We f***ing love it ❤

That fiero is positively cursed. What on earth is that?
Thomas not going for the Lancia shocked me to my core. And it looked so clean
Love these & many of the videos you create regularly because you guys be having some incredible opinions & views as a car guy should take
James
You won everything once I saw the ZL1 1LE
Ah wow!! A 80's Saab 900S. That was my first car! Also with the red velour interior. I only had a wooden dash front. Loved it. I called it Leopard after the tank ;)
Is extra throttle house just for lower production value? I feel like they'd make bank putting this on main chan
Separate channels help algorithm

I was the buyer on that Elise! It’s the right choice. 😉
There’s a BMW V12-powered Ultima GTR in Alberta. Made to replicate the McLaren F1 test mule.
10:29 the Doug demuro car 😂😂😂😂
Used to live on a steep hill in the PNW. Someone at the top of the hill bought a ZL1. Was always really fun to watch them try to get up the hill after a surprise rain.
The throttle house couch is my second favorite only to another certain couch viewed on the internet
Camaro finally getting some love
After production ceased, people realized just how good it was.
Same with the Viper.
This is why we can't have nice things. 😢
Believe it or not the couch videos are my favorite! It feels like we're all just friends hanging out
That interior at the Saab looks appalling but I'm sure it's comfortable in the heat of Texas
This is so smart on Doug’s part. Pair up with another popular channel, let them list your cars for free and make some content in exchange.
Saab was a solid choice. Theyre so quirky. I was always more of a Volvo fan but both were cool.
im at the 30k part in the video and James has already won this one
Truly, the Saab 900; specifically the turbo -- PHENOMENAL CARS. I recently bought an 87 SPG and its just so much fun around town.
This is great. I wish car RUclipsrs would do more rallys and road trips content together. Like Hammond, James, and Clarkson have always done, but with different groups and styles. That would be AWESOME! I hope Hammond can use Drive Tribe to do this with the trio and other creators.
Throttle House so special you got the dog acting like a cat
I really enjoy watching you guys look at lower price points too like the 10k sports car video you did and this is fun to see what you can get for not a lot of cash but still have fun
I like Thomas' "garage". Best laugh though was James saying he is going to Safari his Century
That F80 M3 in Sakhir Orange is fire (although the pics make the color look better than I've seen of it in real life...maybe just needs lots of sun). Also, the RX8 beats the Saab in the $5K category. If the engine blows, you just get to do a fun LS swap. So even if you lose, you still win!
If we're doing a full garage, here's what I'd pick:
$5k '96 Nissan 300zx (manual)
$10k '85 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4×4
$30k '59 Cadillac Sedan/Wagon
$50k Factory Five Racing GTM
$100k RCR 962 or XJ13 or GT40 or 917
$250k Halo Warthog (decommissioned)
That dog is so adorable! I think James won. V10 Manual R8, no boring trucks, ZL1 1LE
"I don't remember what it was though." LMAO!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
As a 4WD guy I would kill for that LandCruiser.
Rx8, BMW, Landcruiser / Lotus tied, Camaro, Audi, RR
Good fun! Thanks boys and good luck with the sale(s).
I love this cross over with Cars and Bids!
Nice picks, love it.
Good luck on the auction!
lol that picture of the not bought Giulia is like the best looking Guilia quad, i looked at that auction like 10 times.
I jag the same Saab and it was fun and for the time quick. I raced civic si’s in the late 90’s and pulled away after the turbos spooled up
19:37 "My Bok"
I can't even. That is brilliant!
This format is unmatched. would love to see more of those. maybe best electric vehicle in each price range
God bless you guys. Great video. ❤❤
you guys gotta do more of these
Thomas got a very balanced garage there!!
"....Thomas's mum." Ah well in that case, yes, I will be purchasing the AE86.
I pretty much would've gotten all the "Here's what I didn't do" choices from James 😅 First and foremost, the firetruck - my kids would love that thing!
And I never would've taken Thomas for an SUV/Offroader kinda guy...
SLS Mercedes is a beauty!
James garage is unironically like 2 cars off from my dream garage
That's why I love you guys
Love this episode: for me Thomas wins every category! James must try harder next time.
Man that Fiero is hilarious.
I'm all in on the first car. In the 1981 novel "Licence Renewed" James Bond's personal car was a Saab 900 Turbo.
Ultima yes please! Beauty!
Wow!!!
Very cool collaboration!!!!
I'm on Thomas' side here. The Ultima is such a rare scare for driver and passenger, it's epic. Pajero and Phantom are on my wishlist, so: Thomas wins - in my eyes.
First car was Saab. As if I didn't love you enough already. My 2000 9-3 I had in HS and college was my favorite car ever.
Personally, I think that was a clean sweep by James, great choices!
RX8, 740i, Land Cruiser, ZL1, R8, Diablo
We need more throttle couch videos! (Please, please, please)
I love these videos
It's very close to conversations I have with myself lol
5k: RX8
10k: e38
30k: Land Cruiser
50k: zl1
100k: ultima gtr
250k: Diablo
This concept is so so good.
James wins all the way. But you guys should totally track challenge the Enzo Fiero against the Lotus Elise!
Very interesting video thanks ❤❤❤❤

Cool ad for Cars and Bids.
That 7 series looks so good. I'd drive one of those for sure
Doug said. Hey guys, if you do a video about which cars you choose I won’t charge the sellers fees on your cars. Deal? 😂
There are no sellers fees
@@10caterhamdo they just get the ad revenue? Or does the buyer pay a premium
For those that haven't watched the antics of the Fierri Enzo, go watch it, especially the video where they made it into The Quail as a show car.
E38 notes, I had a late production Steel Blue Metallic (the last run for N/A with the last color) but I had the iL, which if you look, production dates are close to 9/11.
