The 2021 Lexus IS Is Tweaked, Not Fully Updated

Though the Supra’s 2JZ remains a first-gen IS300 exclusive, Lexus has updated its compact sports sedan over the years. The second-gen, for instance, got the V8-engined IS F. And now, for the 2021 model year, the Lexus IS enters its fourth generation. But the new model is less a full overhaul than a careful refinement. …

However, there was one car that we could consider one of the sportiest cars that Volvo ever produced. In fact, we could even call it a “hot hatch.” That …

Can a Dodge Challenger GT Do a Burnout?

Like apple pie and ice cream, American muscle cars and burnouts go hand-in-hand. That is, unless you happen to be driving a Dodge Challenger GT, in which case, it could get tough.

The Valiant: An Aston Martin V8 Vantage Restomod for the Track

Though it has built continuation replicas of famous models, Aston Martin hasn’t featured too heavily in the restomod scene. Especially in the sportier parts of restomodding, like Gunther Werks’ 993-based 400R. Which makes sense, given that even the brand’s 911 competitor, the V8 Vantage, was more GT than a sports car. But one Nurburgring instructor …

In fact, one of its most iconic cars, James Bond’s DB5, was designed via a licensed version of Italian coachbuilder Superleggera’s construction system. And to pay tribute, the company’s name appears on the British carmaker’s newest …
