## Resource

This week on The Drive, Lauren, Karl, and special guest Paul Fix II break down one of the most talked-about events in the collector car world — the Amelia Island Concours — and the record-setting auction results that have everyone paying attention. Paul shares his deep industry experience as we explore what’s driving soaring collector car values and whether this momentum can continue. The conversation then shifts to the bigger picture: do car shows still matter in today’s fast-moving, digital media landscape? We take a hard look at their relevance for consumers, manufacturers, and the media. You’ll also hear an exclusive interview with Jens Meiners from the Car Design Event, offering insight into emerging design trends shaping the future of the auto industry. We round things out with a timely discussion on oil prices, global tensions, and what it all means for drivers in the U.S., followed by a special segment with Hollywood Car Correspondent Josh Hancock, bringing the latest from the intersection of cars and entertainment. From auctions and design to global economics and Hollywood — this episode covers it all. 👉 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to stay up to speed with The Drive! https://thedrivecarshow.com/ 👉 Follow us on social media: Join Lauren Fix and Karl Brauer for the ride—follow us on X and FB @thedrivecarshow Syndicated Radio show on both AM, FM and Podcast platforms.
