Description

Every gearhead has their favorite ride, be it American, Italian, or otherwise. Host of JDM Legends, Eric Bizek, gives us the rundown on his new show that will be featured on the Velocity Network and Motor Trend App. This show appeals to the fans of the Japanese domestic market and features rare imports such as the Nissan Skyline and the Mazda Sport. Shifting focus, we cover the death of cars; the Ford Motor Company has announced their plan to axe five of seven sedans from their line-up. Karl Brauer, Brian Moody, and BJ Killeen give us their thoughts on what this means for the automotive industry. Next up, Karl reviews the 2018 Jaguar XF Sportbrake, and BJ explains her drive experience in the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta. We end the show with Brian sounding off about why he thinks luxury sedans will remain around. The car industry is changing lanes - which one will you end up in?
