Low & Wide OBS Silverado – on a Craftsman Truck Series chassis

Curious creativity. Or as the kids call it: FAFO. That’s what the hotrod spirit is REALLY all about. It’s not about conformity, fitting in, or following an influencer. Rather - it’s about handing over the keys to that curious/devious voice inside your head. And making...

Celica GT-Four – Enthusiasts Make Enthusiasts

The Celica GT-Four is a cool car, no doubt. But for John Mamone, it’s honestly not about the car. It’s about the friendships. Interesting cars are just the common thread here… the glue. Yeah-yeah I know that sounds cliché. But when you break it down, it’s everything. ...

Cars at the Capitol – hosted by SEMA & PRI

I was recently given the opportunity to participate in the Cars At The Capitol event hosted by SEMA & PRI. My car, a 1995 3000GT Spyder (previously featured in S3) was included as part of a 9-vehicle display hosted on Capitol Hill. What an experience! This diverse...

Lincoln Nautilus – American Luxury Made in China

If you want a pampering, luxurious, tech-forward driving experience, the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus should be on your list. BUT... it's made in China. Maybe you care about that, maybe you don’t. But historically when you think “Lincoln” you tend to think premium American...

Owning an Autozam AZ-1

Jade Richardson is a software engineer from California, and I’ll tell ya why that’s relevant. It’s relevant because even HE understands (*as a software engineer from California*) that all cars don’t need to drive like damn iPhones, Teslas, or automated tech support....

Will Lockwood’s S14.5 240SX – gaining STATURE

What are we chasing man? Let's call it out. In today’s culture, I think a lot of us are chasing attention, adoration, clout, power, followers, envy, dollars, etc. But on a deeper level, to be more specific & fair, I think what we’re really chasing is relevance....

Genesis GV60 review – politics aside

If you don’t like electric vehicles, you should drive the Genesis GV60. Because here’s the thing: I don’t like EVs either. At least I was pretty convinced I didn’t. But the driving experience of the Genesis GV60 is good enough to make me realize, it’s actually not the...

Toyota is earning their fanbase the old-fashion way

For a lot of us, car purchases are emotionally driven. Buying a vehicle is more than just 'buying a vehicle', it’s a show of support for the brand. Throughout my life, I've formed strong emotional connections with several brands for several different reasons. And...

k-swapped C6 Corvette

It’s weird ok. I mean who on earth sticks a Honda motor in a C6 Corvette? We get it... K-swaps are cool. VTEC is a lifestyle. But this?! This is just backwards. These dudes went from Ds to Bs lol. Here's the path that led to a k-swapped turbocharged C6 Corvette: First...

V8 BMW 2002

Our understanding of success has been mangled ‘AF’ by this digital generation. So has our understanding of quality of life. We’ve GOT to regroup on some of this. I mean - can you even enjoy life anymore if it doesn’t go viral? That’s a damn serious question....

twin turbo, Bagged S550 Mustang

Josh Baker has a thing for yellow. Fair enough. His first car was a Yellow New Edge GT back in the day. Then a Yellow ’05 after that. Then, back in the Fall of 2014, Josh Baker was looking at upgrading to a yellow Boss S197… all the way up in Maine. The new S550...

2018 Mazda3 Grand Touring Review

It’s gonna sound like I’m picking on the Mazda3, and I am. But NOT because it’s a bad car. Actually - it’s got some pretty slick, well designed features to it. But they’re all whispers. And THAT’S the problem here: The good traits within the Mazda3 are not getting the...

2018 Kia Rio Review

Text: Yousef Alvi  //  Photos: Geoff Dennis   The 2018 Kia Rio is a beautiful specimen of simple engineering.  Nothing inside or outside of the Rio screams cheap but it is cheap…our tester is loaded out at a tick over $18,000.  It is easy to make a car cheap. It...
