On the 1st episode of Car Trek 9, AutoTempest challenges the guys to find 3 of the best rebuilt exotic cars for less money than a new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 costs. Tyler gets flashy and brings a Ferrari 458 Spider that's missing a few things, Ed chooses a nearly perfect Audi R8 V10+ & tries not to fall asleep, & Freddy brings his SEMA show car McLaren 675LT, which may end up being too expensive and too fast for these challenges. They are then shown to Car Wizard for inspection before proving themselves on a real, actual track.
