Mitsuoka M55 Concept Taps The 1970s With Challenger Like Styling, Has Honda Underpinnings

by

The Dodge Challenger as we know it may be going away after 2023 comes to a close, but while Dodge is preparing to end the party, it appears that the folks at Mitsuoka are not quite ready to close the show, with the quirky Japanese car company revealing the all-new M55 concept to celebrate the firm’s 55th anniversary.   Is The M55’s Attempts At Imitation The Sincerest Form Of Flattery? While it remains to be seen how Dodge and its parent brand Stellantis will respond to the M55’s attempt to cosplay as one of its iconic models (given the legal …

2018 McLaren SENNA – P15 Ultimate Series is Raw Purists Special

by

McLaren’s P1 successor is here and it is shocking, to say the least. An unfinished looking cutjob of a design statement is actually on purpose.  Senna escews beauty in favor of raw, purist principles.   Dimensions shink-wrap the driver, as does the open-air cockpit with glass doors.  Fully free-standing front fenders make a slice of air to wrap the cockpit and the reverse + scoop vents ahead and behind the butterfly doors. Light weight, strict aero and performance like a trackbound rocket.  Check out the first photoset and official details from McLaren below.   2018 McLaren SENNA The McLaren Senna: the …

2018 Rezvani TANK – 500HP Designer Assassin – 15 New Pics

by

You’d be shocked how fast you can throw $50k at a custom Jeep.  And probably shocked that you can actually spend $50k on a stock, factory Wrangler right from a dealership floor. When you add those two totals, you’re already past $100k without even a toe in the sand. Rezvani has made it easier to have the ULTIMATE off-road supercar right from the start.  No fiddling with settings, stance and lifts.  The Dodge 392 6.4-liter V8 upgrade alone is worth about $30k on a factory machine. Rezvani has gone far, far beyond an engine swap and customized bodywork, though.  The …

Novitec Debuts Tesla Model X Stage One Bodykit, Vossen 22s and CCBs

by

Welcome to Hell! Electric cars heading to the supertuning boutique? Yes, the day has come, folks. Just kidding. The Tesla X is already over $100k easily and rips to 100-mph like a stabbed rat.  So why not upgrade its style and stance to match? If you’re like us, you loathe the Tesla roofline and bloated surfaces.  But realize: the looks outside, and the glasshouse in particular, are basically just there to create ridiculously airy cabins.  The same reason there is a double-height windshield — to make the X feel like a legit spaceship.  Once you accept that — and know …

2017 BMW i Inside Future Sculpture Previews HoloActive Gesture Controls

by

Has BMW i just gone off the deep end entirely?  The iPerformance range in the 3 series (330e) and X5 40e is smooth and creamy — literally — on the road.  Yet the plugin hybrid electrics do drive like normal, high-speed BMWs. But my word.  Getting past the clutter of the “BMW i” language and descriptors, not to mention their designs and prices, mean these new innovations are definitely still in their infancy. Case in point? The below press release, which is virtually unintelligible.  It is so up its own a** that you have a hard time knowing the CARS …
