“Imposter Syndrome in Car Journalism + Why 911s Are Driven by Pricks!”
Yes, we went there. From battling self-doubt in the industry to a savage takedown of Porsche 911 culture, this BrownCarGuy Therapy Session pulls no punches.
But that’s just the start…
In this episode I’m joined by:
👉 Naveed Hussain aka @Naveed4Speed – UK car reviewer & AutoEvolution contributor.
👉 Imthishan Giado – Dubai-based automotive business journalist, ex-CAR Middle East deputy editor, and my co-founder at Motoring Middle East.
We dive into the most controversial, hilarious and revealing conversations you’ll hear about car culture right now:
⚡ Imposter Syndrome in Car Journalism – why young creators feel they don’t belong, and whether “real” journalists vs influencers even matters anymore.
⚡ 911s are for Pricks? – Imthishan drops the most brutal take on Porsche 911 ownership you’ve ever heard (and why he might reluctantly agree they’re brilliant).
⚡ Gatekeeping & Diversity – “the barrier of entry for brown people is invisible and so much higher… you’ve got to be the Barack Obama of automotive journalism.”
⚡ Bradford Car Culture – Caterhams, LaFerraris on the high street, and why Bradford’s car + food scene might surprise you.
⚡ Chinese Cars Take Over – BYD has 100,000 people in R&D compared to VW’s 20k. Are legacy manufacturers totally screwed?
⚡ Enthusiasts vs Consumers – are petrolheads becoming an endangered species in the algorithm era?
⚡ AI & Algorithms – why opinions may no longer matter if Google and ChatGPT just spit out the specs.
⚡ Ford’s Fast-Tracked Ranger Raptor Disaster – how rushing development to keep up with the Chinese exposed huge flaws in the Middle East.
⚡ Classic Cars vs New Cars – the truth about running costs, honesty in old school engineering, and whether passion is worth the pain.
This isn’t just car talk — it’s a raw, funny, and brutally honest session on the future of cars, culture, and journalism itself.
💬 Comment below: Are car guys finished? Do 911 owners deserve the “prick” label, or is it still the greatest sports car ever?
