OVERRATED “JDM Legend”? 🤔 (Trigger Warning)

Some JDM cars deserve every bit of the hype they’ve earned… others might be living off nostalgia.

In this episode of the KONIG Wheels Behind the Wheel Podcast, we debate some of the most iconic Japanese performance cars ever built and decide which ones are actually underrated, which ones have become overrated, and which models deserve a second look.
From legendary turbo icons to forgotten gems, we’re discussing the cars that enthusiasts argue about more than almost anything else.

Grab your favorite snack and hangout with Nick and Matt as we discuss which JDM cars went underrated and which ones were overrated? Is it even possible that the MK4 Supra could be considered overrated with it’s 2JZ? Let’s talk about it.

Are These Engines Still That Good? || Behind The Wheel Podcast

On this podcast Scott and Rich discuss older icon engines such as the Nissan RB26, Toyota 2JZ, Honda B and K series, Nissan SR20, Mitsubishi 4G63 etc. We are almost 30 years in the future since these engines came out and they are appreciating in value. Are these engines really that good or are people looking to buy these because of nostalgia or hype? On a second thought, are these engines retaining and appreciating in value because they really are that good? Do car manufactures put the same amount of effort in engineering high performance engines as they did 20-30 years ago? Let us know your thoughts!
