Antonio Finato

Meet Antonio Finato – Builder by Day, Porsche Addict by Lifestyle, and Co-Host of The Shift Talkers
Antonio Finato isn’t just your average car enthusiast—he’s a full-blown Porsche fanatic with a sharp tongue, a sharper eye for detail, and over 15 years of experience crushing it in the construction world. When he’s not managing job sites, you’ll find him wrenching in the garage, curating his growing Porsche collection, or behind the mic talking smack about bad mods and overhyped builds.
As co-host of The Shift Talkers, Antonio brings raw opinions, deep car knowledge, and zero filter. His background as a mechanic and contractor gives him a unique perspective on what it means to build something—whether it’s a house or a track weapon.
Outside of cars, Antonio’s a family-first kind of guy. He’s just as happy attending car meets with his wife as he is spending a quiet day with his daughter. But make no mistake: once the mics are on, he’s all in on the culture, the controversy, and calling out the cringe in the car world.
From garage floors to GT3s, Antonio lives and breathes performance, precision, and personality. Please tune in to hear his unfiltered takes and contagious passion every week on The Shift Talkers Podcast
