2008 LEXUS IS-F
There is very little that I need to say for you to realize that if you have the cash that you need to buy this car.  Here we go:
-418HP 5.0 liter V8
-8-Speed paddle shift transmission
-It will get you chicks
There that should already be enough.  I actually got to do a dyno pull in [...]

Just in time for its release KW Suspensions announces a Variant 3 coilover suspension system for the 2008 M3.  I swear these guys have some sort of time machine!  That would perfectly explain why even though the M3 has only been out for 5 seconds KW has already developed a top notch coilover system complete [...]

The cure for “Soccer Mom Syndrome” has arrived.  The certifiably insane German tuning house known has Brabus managed to get their clutches on the new C-Class wagon.  By now we know how this kind of thing goes.  They ripped out the stock mill and shoe horned in a cartoonishly powerful V6 engine that’s stroked to [...]

I’ve been one of the Subaru faithful since the days of Colin McRae (RIP) humping his 555 Impreza over rutted tracks and mountain passes to claim Britain’s first World Rally Championship. For years, I watched from afar as the rest of the world got to buy on Monday what Colin was racing on Sunday. Who [...]

We’re big fans of anything Ducati. In fact there’s an ‘07 Ducati monster in the Garage. So here’s a few new pieces of gear for you to rock whether you ride or not. The retro style of the Desmo sweater is perfect hipster gear for the cognoscenti. Oh, and send one of those jackets on [...]

The nine minute long chase scene through the streets of San Francisco in the 1968 movie Bullitt still remains one of the best ever on film. Steve McQueen as grizzled SF cop Frank Bullitt flew a highland green 1968 Ford Mustang GT390 up and down the hills of SF and created a legend. Two cars [...]

One of the best track cars since the Lotus Exige has returned.  Dodge is bringing back the first ACR we’ve seen in about 9 years.  The engine in the ACR is the same as the other SRT10 models but you can guarantee that its been put on a diet and given a beefed up suspension [...]
