Understandably, Toyota is excited to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic Toyota Corolla AE86 that was launched all the way back in 1983. To do so, it skipped the candles and heartfelt speeches but has instead done so in true petrolhead fashion by releasing a special version of the car’s modern successor, the GR86. Dubbed the GR86 40th Anniversary Limited, only 200 units will be made for Japan only and getting your hands on one will take quite a bit of luck. The reason being that interes

Japanese police cars aren’t just limited to the run-of-the-mill Toyota Crown or Toyota Prius, as certain prefectural police forces have far more potent cars in their fleet.

Based on sneak peek, the 2022 Subaru BRZ retains the sleek coupe profile with eye-pleasing proportions. Wheels appear to be 18-inch items that resemble the ones in the Toyota GR Yaris. Details are expected to be revealed on 18 November. It is expected to receiv

In the spirit of Kaizen, or continous improvement, Lexus has just given its flagship LC Coupe an update. Changes are relatively minor and the exterior is largely untouched. One of the changes highlighted is the reduced unsprung weight by around 10 kg. This is achieved through the use of aluminium lower arms, light anti-roll bars, and new material for the coil springs. The 21-inch forged alloy wheels are also lighter than before. On top of making the suspension parts lighter, it has also been cal

(Image Credit: Motor1 Website) Mercedes-AMG GT R Pro, the successor of the high-performance sports vehicle - Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT, is branded as an agile gymnast with a lighter and smaller body. Parading its phenomenal velocity, the black version of AMG GT R was caught testing on the road. Times up for little talks. Now let's talk about the hood! What do you think of this car from your first glance? THE HOOD, I bet you say? Actually, we rather call it an EXHAUST HOOD. Just like the vent that
