Lexus LC 500h – Bespoke Build

Personally - I see the Lexus LC 500h almost as a rolling concept car that somehow made it through to production. I mean just look at it… it’s on another level. The LC has been out for years now, but it still feels unreal that it even exists. It's truly a testament to...

49 chevy truck

Sponsors?  None.  Merch?  Nope.  YouTube channel?  What’s that.  Yeah, in a rare turn of 21st-century events, what you’re seeing is a custom 49 Chevy truck… just for the hell of it. No ‘branding’… no ‘influencing’… no ‘hash-tagging’. In fact, this is the first vehicle...

Lexus RC 350 F SPORT Review

If you look at what Lexus is creating across the board - from cars like the IS 350, to the RC 350, to the LC (and of course the F types)… Lexus is committed to making Sport a key component of the brand… in a current automotive landscape where Sport is getting more and...

2018 Toyota Camry Review

2018 Toyota Camry Review

2018 Toyota 86 Review

2018 Toyota 86 Review

The Toyota 86 is truly a pure & unique driver-focused sports car. But - it’s being sabotaged by it’s own price tag. And as someone who loves the car, that frustrates me. It’s not that the price is astronomical. It’s just a tad hard to swallow when you start adding...
