Thad, Matt and I sit down prior to their departure to film the season finalé for /Drive. Matt and I give updates on the Mustand and Fiesta projects respectively, we discuss suspenion at length touching on the merits of magnetic ride control vs. coilovers, the ATS-V and C63 are seriously impressive machines so much so that they're nipping at the heels of the Ferrari 458 and 911 GT3 and there are bargain bin Aston Martins up for the taking. Additionally I give my first impressions of Forza 6 and we answer listener questions.
