The Morning Shift & Sydney Premium Detailing

The boys are back for Episode 83, joined by special guest and partner Mitch from Sydney Premium Detailing!

SAVE THE DATE: The next Morning Shift car community event is officially locked in for August 16th (8am-10am) at the Sydney Premium Detailing workshop in Castle Hill!

Mitch shares his childhood obsession with classic car movies and how he built his elite detailing business from the ground up

The New BMW X5: Mercedes is Dead?

BMW drops the striking new X5, and the exterior design has the boys seriously impressed

But it’s not all praise... Sal, Nic, and Mitch ruthlessly roast the bizarre “upside-down” steering wheel

They also debate whether massive passenger-side infotainment screens are a total $15k gimmick

Ferrari’s EV Design Drama

A major design shakeup in Maranello as Ferrari allegedly fires their design team following heavily criticised EV collaborations

Mitch argues that without a spine-tingling exhaust note to save it, an ugly EV has absolutely nowhere to hide

This sparks a legendary debate: is a Lamborghini V12 raw “AC/DC” rock & roll while a Ferrari V12 is pure, elegant opera?

The Supercar Golden Era

The boys reminisce about the absolute peak era of supercars (2006-2014) before heavy emissions restrictions took over

Mitch reveals his ultimate garage dream is the F12 tdf, Nic goes pure 90s nostalgia with the F50, and Sal defends the legendary F430 Scuderia

The Modern Car Safety Tech Roast

The episode devolves into a rant about modern car technology—starting with menu-hidden climate controls

From intrusive lane-keep assist systems to emergency braking losing its mind over a plastic bag, the boys plead for dedicated “off” buttons!
