In this first documentary from Key, Ryan Lopez dives into the rise of JDM culture and how it became one of the most influential movements in modern car enthusiasm. It starts behind the wheel of something iconic, the screen-used Suki Honda S2000 from 2 Fast 2 Furious. From there, Ryan traces the roots of it all at the Petersen Automotive Museum vault, coming face-to-face with the very first Honda ever imported to the United States. But this story isn’t just about cars; it’s about the people and moments that shaped the culture. Drifting legend Ken Gushi shares his journey through the motorsports world and how Japanese cars carved out their place in racing. Sebastián Rodríguez of Era Picture Cars pulls back the curtain on how JDM icons became stars in some of the most influential films and music videos ever made.
ARRIVE & DRIVE is a travel show for the car enthusiast community. In each episode we visit a different town, city, or state to explore and immerse ourselves in the car culture through the eyes of the locals. In this first episode Joe explores Washington's Seattle area, meeting with collectors, touring incredible car storage facilities and workshops, and driving some incredible cars - including a pair of rally homologation special legends - the Audi Sport Quattro and the Lancia Delta S4 Stradale.
In this episode, Ryan sits down with Jessi Rae (@moorejessirae), an OnlyFans creator who’s turned online success into a seriously impressive car collection. Ryan gets a full tour of Jessie’s garage, diving into the stories behind the cars and the decisions that built her collection. Along the way, they tackle the questions people usually keep to themselves: Did the passion for cars come before the fame? How does she decide what to buy next? And what’s it really like being a polarizing figure in the car community? This is a candid, unfiltered conversation about what it means to carve your own path in car culture.
For this week's installment of KEY car culture, Joe visited Montana to explore the state's complex relationship with LLC-titled supercars. The issue of using a Montana LLC to register high-value vehicles and save on tax has been in the news a lot recently, with the perception that none of the thousands of supercars registered in the state actually reside there. We wanted to find out if there are in fact any supercars and car enthusiasts in the state, and help to dispel some of the myths around the process.
For this week's installment of KEY, Ryan ventures to Danny McKenna's private collection to discuss a very interesting outlet of his collecting passion: Car company bicycles.
This week, Ryan and Joe explore Colorado with $2,000,000 worth of EarthRoamers to find out what “go anywhere” really means. One’s all-in. The other isn’t convinced. Mountains, trails, and a simple question: do these actually live up to the promise?
Rarer than a Ferrari F40, Lamborghini Miura, the XJ220 and the Carrera GT; Is the Audi Sport Quattro the perfect super limited, do-it-all sports car? On a recent trip to Seattle, we spent a few hours with our good friend Steve over at Dirtfish Driving School. Steve only collects great cars, and was kind enough to throw us the KEY to his Audi Sport Quattro.
This is the Lancia Delta Integrale EXTREMA Stradale, the first of a very limited run of widebody Integrale continuation restomods. But beyond the boxy new exterior and awesome Martini livery, what else is there to talk about? Well, how about the almost 500hp, revised suspension, steering, and brakes? Turns out you really can have a car that's all show and all go!
The Czinger 21C is one of the wildest cars ever built: a 1,250hp twin-turbo hybrid hypercar with tandem fighter-jet seating, AI-designed 3D-printed components, a screaming 11,000rpm V8, 0-60mph in 1.9 seconds, and a top speed beyond 250mph. Built in Los Angeles using technology that feels closer to aerospace than automotive engineering, the 21C genuinely looks like it arrived from the future, which made it completely surreal that we got to spend an entire day driving not one, but TWO of them around LA. Not on a racetrack. In actual traffic. Freeways, stoplights, bad roads, smoothie runs — testing whether one of the most extreme hypercars on earth could actually function in the real world.
On a recent trip to Seattle, Steve Rimmer - founder of Dirtfish Rally School - was kind enough to show us around his extensive collection, featuring world-class rally and homolgation cars, as well as some spectacular analogue sports cars, manual Ferraris and analogue Porsches.
The Hamilton Collection has become one of the internet's most recognizable car collections, but the story goes beyond the cars themselves. In this episode, Steve Hamilton takes us behind the scenes of building a world-class collection, shares some controversial takes on the automotive world, and reflects on the aftermath of a crashed $1.5 million hypercar. More importantly, we explore how the collection has become a platform for giving back through charity events, blood drives, fundraisers, and community outreach, proving these cars are meant to do more than sit behind velvet ropes.
he Koenigsegg Jesko is one of the most extreme machines ever built. 125 exist in the world. Each one costs four million dollars, makes 1,600 horsepower on E85, and carries one of the most technologically advanced transmissions ever put in a car.... We drove it to get a Chicago hot dog. A proper one: mustard, relish, sport peppers, celery salt, poppy seed bun, absolutely no ketchup. The Jesko and the Chicago dog actually have more in common than you'd think: both are the product of a completely unreasonable commitment to doing one thing exactly right and refusing to compromise on any of it. One of them just happens to cost slightly more than the other.
The Diablo is one of the greatest cars ever made, and the market is finally starting to realize it. We had the opportunity to drive this incredible example - a 'hotrod' Diablo, boasting several amazing visual upgrades - ahead of it being listed over at Cars and Bids.
In this episode, Joe heads to San Francisco, to explore car culture in one of America's most compact cities. From 100 year old Fords to $30,000,000 Ferraris, driverless taxis to the world's oldest cable street car systel, San Francisco's car culture is as diverse as it gets!
