I’m more of a tuning kind of guy, and I purchase aesthetic and functional mods to make my driving more satisfying. I want my cars to ride smoothly for everyday driving while handling sharply on sweeping bends and tight corners. I like to lower a vehicle to reduce car lean while cornering hard and to make them look good to my eyes. But I'm also not too fond of crashy suspensions and those that hop over bumps because they lack travel and have springs that are as stiff as a sore neck. In the same w

The R35 Nissan GT-R is a bit of a miracle in the automotive world – it’s been around for over 15 years. First introduced in 2007, the GT-R was the long-awaited replacement to the legendary R34 Skyline GT-R that had stopped production in 2002. In an industry where new cars tend to pop up every five years, the R35’s incredible longevity is perhaps a testament to its enduring design and performance. In fact, the 2024 Nissan GT-R now cranks out 565 PS and can do 0 to 100 km/h in under 3 seconds – to

Lamborghini is ending its V12 era with a bang as it revealed the new Invencible and Autentica as the swan song for the last of its gasoline-only vehicles. The former is a coupe, while the latter is a roadster. They both utilize the Lamborghini Aventador platform, which debuted 12 years ago with the Aventador LP 700-4. The Invencible and Autentica blend past models featuring styling cues derived from the brand’s other V12 machines. Lamborghini also states that the duo took after the Venenon, whic

The Chinese automaker drummed up upgrades of its Thunder double cab pickup. It now has a Php 1.35 million, six-speed automatic transmission (with manual mode) version, while retaining a 161 ps / 390 Nm 2.0-liter turbodiesel straight four. Another example was an upgrade to its Transvan passenger van. The potential school bus and people hauler ditched its 2.8-liter tur

From a distance, both cooly-parked Mitsubishi L-300 and Isuzu Traviz might just seem ready to transform and explode down the runway like two imposing and indestructible Autobots from the Transformers movie fame, especially when imaginably viewed under a dazzling play of light cast from a newly-minted showroom. But as the saying goes, there is always a chink even in the most formidable of armors as one car feature prominently stands out from the rest, especially in the case between the L-300 and

Omniscient is the word to describe the singularly typical presence of this nimble chariot which can be seen buzzing along daily in most major thoroughfares like busy commercial districts, public or market squares, or better yet, preferably anywhere you can think of. But perhaps, automakers involved in the production of these cars are hell-bent on creating a clone army (much like in the movie Star Wars) smacked-dab for a wholesale invasion of the Philippine archipelago as a heavy volume of these
