If you’re obscenely rich lucky enough to be currently participating in the inter-continental celebrity and royalty hell on wheels automotive orgy that is the Gumball 3000 Rally, then you may know what the Galag TG1 is. If not, then there’s almost no chance in hell you do, as the Galag TG1 is a one-off mod built by [...]

Celebrating 100th Anniversary with hideous nod to the past

There are several major automotive milestones going on in 2013, including the 50th Anniversary of Lamborghini and the iconic Porsche 911.

Only 100 units of the Asian exclusive G-Wagon to be made

Perhaps to feed Japan’s seemingly insatiable hunger for all-black G550 SUVs, Mercedes-Benz has announced the production of a vehicle they’ve dubbed the “Night Edition”. Only 100 of these blacked-out versions of the G550 will be built and sold exclusively in Land of the Rising Sun later this spring. The ”Night Edition” gleams with an obsidian black exterior [...]
