Circumstantial Nostalgia, Chinese Motorcycles, and Rebuilding Bugattis
Episode 434
Monday, 23 February, 2026

For almost all of us out there, affording a new car means selling the old one. As we get older and more settled in life, sometimes the idea of a project car or buying a replacement for that vehicle you wish you still had becomes more obtainable. Which vehicle would you repurchase and why? Which project car is right around the corner for you? We also talk about the rise of the Chinese automakers that we can't get in the States, but Chinese motorcycles have already snuck in and they're actually good! Will the Chinese motorcycle market direction be an indicator of the upcoming automotive market? The Avants Podcast is brought to you by our friends at STEK USA and Carter Seattle!
