Tesla lawsuits – Hate to say I told you so.

Tesla is getting hit with some lawsuits for suppressing 3rd-party parts & repairs on Tesla vehicles. Basically - Tesla tries to control the service/repairs of Tesla vehicles & lock-out any 3rd-party companies form being able to compete. And of course - Tesla...

It’s no secret that car culture is passing-by today’s youth. Or maybe it’s the other way around. But regardless - there is a lack of widespread engagement amongst teens within car culture… noticeably less than generations past. A quick Google search will show you...

This breaks my heart for Eric Kutil

Man this just breaks my heart for Eric Kutil. I know how hard he worked on this Hybrid Racing Kanjo-inspired Civic sedan. And I know what kind of effort he goes through to put such a clean & inspiring car on the track. Not to mention the driving skill, which is...

Stanced Mini Trucks

Yeah the mini truck scene died. But it almost had to die. Because mini trucks were so expressive, so individualized, and so anchored in the 80s/90s rad-era… that they honestly couldn’t survive the new world when it shifted. When styles & colors got diluted. When...

Nerds in Tesla caught with stolen video games & electric toothbrushes

In a far less cool story than the Hellcat Heists… a couple of nerds in a Tesla stole some video game consoles & electric toothbrushes. (Yeah, that sounds about right.) But their crime spree wouldn't last, because they had to stop & charge their car about 8...

$600,000 worth of Hellcats stolen in 45-seconds

Stealing cars is bad mmmkay. But at a 'Gone in 60 Seconds' level, you gotta admit this is pretty slick. Check out the surveillance video below: https://youtu.be/VQk6SvE4_Pc A total of SIX Hellcats were stolen in 45 seconds... That's about 600-grand in total. The...

Before the Super Lap Battle

Remember when you used to see all the cars in time attack before the event even happened? An allure about the winged, turbo tuner-cars brought a certain 'tingly' to us as we flipped through a magazine at the grocery store. We knew the stories of these people &...

Honda CEO, Toshihiro Mibe, feels threatened

I’m hung-up on a quote from Honda’s CEO, Toshihiro Mibe. He was mentioning that while Honda is transitioning over to EVs, he still thinks that enthusiast cars & work-horse heavier-duty vehicles will be internal combustion for quite a long time to come. And...

Studies show – the manual transmission ain’t dead quite yet!

The Wall Street Journal & The Drive shared some data that the manual transmission is making comeback! Albeit small... but mighty. In 2021, the take on new cars with manual transmissions was less than 1%. Just about totally flatlined. But now so far in 2023, that...

Mazda MX-5 Miata RF

Mazda MX-5 Miata RF

Yes - the Mazda MX-5 Miata RF really is 'that good'. In many ways, it’s perfection. But it’s hard to define perfection these days. Or more accurately, it's hard not to be over-shouted when you try to define it. See - we have the (often) misfortune of living in a...

MAZDA CX-50 2.5 TURBO PREMIUM PLUS review

MAZDA CX-50 2.5 TURBO PREMIUM PLUS review

Mazda quietly knocked it out of the park with the CX-50 2.5 Turbo. It might sound harsh, but I just didn't expect much. I mean - how much can you expect from another white crossover? And when I first drove the CX-50 2.5 Turbo, initially I didn’t feel anything...

Honeymoon destinations – in a 1970 Chevy C10

Oh great it's another cheesy love story... blah. Let me set the stage: Kelvin got his first real six-string, bought it at the five & dime. And Erica, she was just a small town girl, living in a lonely world. You get the picture right? High school sweethearts, high...

BMW E30 Sedan – the energy of an era

You know what the problem is with technology? It’s us. As a society, we don’t know when to stop. Technology is a convenience that solves problems… until it ultimately becomes an inconvenience that causes problems. Let’s take some random examples.  Having a...

Mazda3 Hatchback 2.5 Turbo AWD Review

For years now, the Mazda3 Hatchback has been a contradictory car for me. I can't quite figure it out. The design is striking… and interesting… and appealing. All of the above. But it's also a little bit weird, with lots of metal and seemingly small windows. You can...
