Welcome to Episode 35!

This week, we’re kicking things off by welcoming our newest contributor to the team! Everyone, meet Paolo Manalo: he’s always well-dressed, he owns the mintiest E39 530i M-Sport, and this week, he shares his thoughts on the freshly redesigned Santa Fe Hybrid.

Plus, we’re revisting two familiar cars this week: the still-shockingly-good Prius Prime, and the still-delicous IS 500. Except this time, we can’t help but wonder if we were looking back at the IS 500 with rose-tinted glasses. Indeed a conundrum.

Here’s what we discussed this week:

• Paolo’s own toy, a manual-swapped 2003 BMW 530i M-Sport
• The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid
• The 2024 Toyota Prius Prime
• The 2024 Lexus IS 500
