The Nissan GT-R remains a favorite among those looking for supercar levels of performance for a semi-reasonable price and is going to be the new project of B is for Build.
Toyota Gazoo Racing has revealed that it will reproduce select parts for the 40 Series Land Cruiser that was built between 1960 and 1984.
We’ve seen quite a few impressive drag car builds in the past, and this Toyota MR2 built by automotive YouTube channel BoostezBoiz is definitely one of them. The MR2 makes over 1,000 horsepower from its four-cylinders engine and was just able to complete the quarter in under 8 seconds.
Last year, a man by the name of Chris Cut made headlines when he attached a roof box and a tent to his modified Acura NSX. Fast forward to mid-2021 and Cut has taken things to a new level, chopping a salvaged NSX in half and using it as a trailer.
General Motors, wishing to sell a small pickup to compete with the likes of the Toyota Hilux and Nissan 521, began importing the Isuzu Faster for the 1972 model year, equipping it with Chevrolet LUV badges. Ford brought over the Mazda Proceed as the Courier the same year, while Chrysler turned to Mitsubishi to provide the Plymouth Arrow Truck and Dodge Ram 50 a bit later on. Once GM introduced the all-Detroit S-10 for the 1982 model year, however, the LUV's reign ended. Fortunately for fans of the Light Utility Vehicle, Isuzu began selling these trucks under its own badging here in 1981. This truck was called the P'up, and sales continued through 1987. Here's one of those P'ups, found in a Denver boneyard last month.
Good morning and welcome to our weekly digest of automotive news from around the globe, starting with…
Just when we thought we could take a break reporting on the sad demise of the Honda/Acura NSX, they go and announce a new one. Sorta.
In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. The dynamic duo kicks things off by discussing the Toyota Supra in its base four-cylinder guise before turning their attention to the midsize pickup truck segment and specifically the Ford Ranger Tremor. They then turn things around and talk about the Harley-Davidson Pan America adventure touring motorcycle and the Fuell Flluid-1S electric bicycle. A quick discussion of the news, including rumors that Chevrolet may build an electric Camaro-badged sedan, is followed by one of our favorite segments as we help a reader spend their money on a replacement for an aging Honda Accord.

The new-generation Toyota Land Cruiser is proving to be so popular in Japan that some customers may have to wait 12 months before they take delivery.
The show must go on, says Nissan, as the unveiling of its next-generation Z sports car (previewed by the Z Proto concept) will still happen on August 17, despite the recently announced cancelation of the New York Auto Show.
Mazda appears to be working on a high-end sports coupe, according to patent filings in Japan. This goes much deeper than the typical model name trademark application, as it includes many intricate illustrations detailing an aluminum spaceframe structure. From what we can glean in the few depicting the exterior, though, it looks surprisingly close to the 2015 RX-Vision concept.
The patent filings, discovered by Taku2-4855, show the rear half of what is clearly a two-door car. Its C-pillar and taillight notch look very similar to the gorgeous RX-Vision concept. The rear haunches, though look a bit more subdued, an inevitability when translating such a low-slung concept to production reality.
Lexus’s do-it-all off-roader, the GX 460, will receive a handful of upgrades for the 2022 model year that include new standard tech and a Black Line Edition.
Lamborghini, like other luxury automakers, has seen sales really kick off in the last few years. That success isn’t down entirely to the likes of the wildly popular Urus, though. Its most classically correct supercar has also been a sales stunner.
The Acura NSX may be winding down production in 2022, but it still has some life left on the track. Today, Acura announced that it will introduce a new version of its NSX GT3 race car. It features a slew of improvements that should make the platform more competitive.
Called the NSX GT3 Evo22, it builds upon the existing NSX GT3 a car that has won multiple championships in IMSA, SRO and Japan's SuperGT. The Evo22 gets improved intercoolers for the 3.5-liter twin-turbo shared with the road car, allowing it to perform consistently in a wider range of conditions and locations. Underneath, the suspension earns some tweaks in revised spring rates and geometry adjustments.
