Show Off // Arief’s RVR on Volk Racing
Every once in a while we’d come across builds that go way beyond people’s expectations. Yes, we’ve featured Lamborghini’s with carbon bodykit the price of a car. Yes we’ve featured rides with wheels alone costing more than $10k. But most of the time, the bottom-line of these mods contributes to only a small fraction of the car’s price. So what’s …

Rebellion // Porsche Cayman on PUR
Recently I stumbled upon an article about RUF’s 3800S Boxster that’s been fitted with top-of-the-line 3.8L 911 engine. A pretty radical approach in turning Porsche’s mid-engined “affordable roadster” into a beast capable of devouring Porsche’s very own prestigious Carrera. While the 911 Carrera has always been designed by the German to stay true to its rear-engined roots, the Boxster/Cayman has …

Hot Spice // Cayenne Hamann on TechArt
When Porsche first introduced the Cayenne in 2002, the world was rather shocked by its appearance. Reviewers all around the world commented on its hideous appearance while Porsche purists endlessly moaned about the brand’s diversion from being a pure-bred sportscar manufacturer. Based on the VW Touareg platform but built with Porsche craftsmanship, the luxury SUV was pretty much the cash-cow …

Profound Warrior // Richard’s Aristo on BC Forged
The road less traveled. As you might’ve already noticed, most of the cars featured on our site have always been equipped with bolt-on made-for-a-specific-model aftermarket parts. Proper. Neat. And more importantly reliable. Whether it’d be a set of Kahn bodykit or iND custom painted parts or even the GT86 bolt-on turbo kit. We love all of these mods because they …

Wallpaper Wednesday // McLaren MP4-12C
Meet the MP4-12C; the subtle supercar. With its dynamic suspensions system, welcoming interior and excellent daily-drivability, the MP4-12C is the supercar wrapped under a great load of practicalities.

Urban Ranger // CX-7 on Rennen Forged
The jeep lovers vs sedan lovers. Observe the toys-pile of a five year-old and you’ll have a pretty good guess at his future hobbies in life. Some collect robots. Others bikes. Some like supercars. Others jeeps and trucks. Looking at a broader perspective, automotive enthusiasts these days also do show a pretty strong polarity towards sedans vs jeeps as hobbies. …
