The Lexus RX 300 was given a facelift last year and the 200t moniker has been dropped in favour of 300, but the powertrain remains unchanged. All three variants of the RX 300 (Premium, Luxury, and F-Sport) are propelled by a 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that makes 238 PS and 350 Nm of torque. Power is channeled to all four wheels via a 6-speed automatic. The one we have here is the F-Sport variant, priced at RM 424,187 (without SST). What are its pros and cons? Like all Lexus models,

Now let’s take a side-by-side look of the new RX with the model it replaces. Up front, new ‘triple beam’ LED headlights flank Lexus’ iconic spindle grille. These headlights are also slimmer in profile than the outgoing units, but you’d be hard pressed to differentiate them. Apart from that, the front fog lights have been repositioned to the edges of the bumper. The F Sport

We heard through the grapevine that Lexus has registered the name RZ450e in the USA, Europe, and Australia. This suggested that Lexus has both a new model coming soon and a possible new powertrain. Now that we have a name, we can start speculating on what it can tell us. The Z is a hint that this will be a whole new model of its own. We glanced through Lexus’ history book and noted that the brand has never used the letter Z on any models that have come before. We can’t help but wonder if this co

2020 has already proven to be a very tough year. With negative emotions running high, we really do not need to see/hear a rare car like a Mazda RX-7 get damaged beyond repair. And the world would have seen one less RX-7 if this kind man hadn’t selflessly saved a complete stranger’s RX-7 from getting damaged by a bad flood! Austin Owens came across a post of a rare FD RX-7 in a flooding casino parking lot on Facebook. Owens knew that if the RX-7 is left as it is, it would only be a matter of time

Another day, another driving incident. In a video that recently made its rounds on the interweb, a FD Mazda RX-7 is seen gunning it, being chased by what looks like a Proton Satria GTI. Both cars can be seen using the entire width of the road to take the left-hander. Halfway through the corner, you can see the RX-7's tail start to step out and go into oversteer. Again, it seems like the driver has accelerated out of the bend too early, applying too much throttle (since I can't possibly comment o
