Oddly, even after all this while, the Toyota FT-86 is still considered a concept. Shown at this year's Geneva Motor Show, this is the FT-86 II concept and I must say, it is looking better and better at each show. Still, all this will be for naught if they don't eventually put it into production. According to Toyota, this concept, and I quote, "gives the clearest indication …

When Hot Toys released its first figure of Jack Sparrow, I thought it was pretty damn awesome. I should know, because I have one. Then they followed up with this, which I thought was equally awesome. Now, however, with the new Pirates movie On Stranger Tides slated to be released later this year, Hot Toys are back at it again and are releasing a new Jack Sparrow figure, a …

I love the new design direction that Mercedes are taking with their new cars. The SLS and new CLS are fantastically handsome cars and the SLK is following suit. I think what really does it for me is the SLS-inspired front grille. Let's be honest, previous SLKs looked like they were designed for ladies. But now with the new grille, I think guys could drive SLKs too without …

I'm glad Hot Toys chose Bruce Lee as their next M Icon figure. And once again, they are showing why they are the top dogs for 1/6 collectible figures with their early solicitation pics. Just look at this sculpt of Bruce Lee. As part of their new M Icon figures, Hot Toys will be releasing two versions of Bruce Lee - in casual wear and in suit wear. They are expected to be …

ADV.1 Wheels is a new name in the wheels industry, specializing in wheels for exotic cars. Despite being new, they have been making a name for themselves with their outrageous designs. Also, they have a huge Flickr catalogue of their wheels on just about any exotic car you can think of. One of my favorite pics is this side shot of the Ferrari F430. The design of the rims is …

Last weekend, I attended the first official testing session of this year's Porsche Carrera Cup Asia (PCCA) at the Sepang International Circuit. With an unprecedented 28 drivers taking to the field, a record for PCCA, this season promises to be an exciting one. PCCA is raced with Porsche GT3 Cup cars and race cars are kept technically identical with only little modifications …

JDM POWER Japan was struck by one of the strongest ever earthquakes in recorded history last week, triggering massive tsunamis which battered Japan's east coast and causing untold amounts of damage and chaos. And I just saw photos from The Big Picture, and I'm just lost for words. It's just terrifying. Those who visit my blog frequently will know I'm a big fan of Japanese …

Think rallying and you would be forgiven that before one Sebastian Loeb and Citroen came around, the most dominating brands were Ford, Mitsubishi or Subaru. That is untrue, because a lesser known brand was actually the king of rallying, and that was Lancia, who won a whopping 10 World Rally Championship titles beginning in 1973. Enjoy then, this awesome wallpaper of the …

Finally got myself a proper camera to replace the crappy Nikon compact which died on my girlfriend and I during our winter trip to Beijing a year ago. I initially wanted to get the LX-5 from Panasonic, but after much consideration, decided to spend a little more (actually double) on a Sony NEX-5 instead. Got a pretty good deal too at the ongoing IT Show since it came with …

This is must be one of the first few videos of the new Lamborghini Aventador revving. Sounds a little coarse at this stage, but hopefully it'll sound just as epic as the outgoing Murcielago when in full flight.

For many, the US$1.2 million Zonda R is out of reach. Happily, however, there is a cheaper alternative. This is the AUTOart Pagani Zonda R. You may not be able to drive it, but it costs a much more affordable US$286 and is a faithful 1/18 recreation of the original car. The details on this thing is simply astonishing. And if the white paint job is not doing it for you, you …

Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima is the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb record holder. His timing of 10:01:408, set in 2007 in a Suzuki Sport XL7, is the fastest in the history of the competition. And last year, Monster Tajima took to the the peaks again in this heavily modified Suzuki SX-4, in an attempt to be the first man to finish the course in under 10 minutes. But it was …

News from the Geneva Motor Show is that the current Mitsubishi Evo, the Evo X, will be the last. This is according to Matt Prior of Autocar who spoke at length to Gayu Eusegi, Mitsubishi's Global Product Director. If this is true, I'm perplexed. Why are Japanese car makers killing off their performance models? Honda killed off their Type R and now Mitsubishi wants to kill …

This is the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4. It's the all-new 700hp 4-wheel drive successor to the Murcielago. Nevermind about its performance because I'm sure it will be fast, considering it's more than 200kg lighter than the Murcielago and also more powerful. What do I make of its looks? Well, it's definitely not what you would call hideous, but it is a little conservative, …

Power it something this R8 doesn't lack. Twin turbos, 777hp and a top speed of over 350kph means this car is very, very fast. However, it does lose the class and elegance that is often associated with the regular R8. And this shiny paintwork you see here is the result of MTM stripping off all the paint to reveal the aluminum body and then followed by over 700 hours of …

Astons are not the fastest cars and neither are they the best handling, but the way they make you feel when you are behind its wheels, and its looks alone are well worth the price they command. Can you think of a roadster prettier than this Aston Martin V8 Vantage? I can't think of many. Grab this wallpaper here.
