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 [...]
Cadillac has decided to take its quite stunning Converj concept from 2009 (which we covered way back when) and move it into production, a very big announcement from GM’s luxury division. Another smart power play from Caddy, who really seem to be hitting on all cylinders at the moment — from the knockout punch of [...]
While there were many headturning unveilings at last week’s Paris Motor Show — including breathlessly hyped supercars from the likes of Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mercedes Benz, Jaguar and even Peugeot —Nissan’s TeRRA SUV concept snuck through the press coverage with making much noise.

Nissan’s latest iteration of the Juke — the high performance Juke-R concept — should alleviate any performance woes. Nissan is squeezing in the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6 engine plucked from the monstrous R35 GT-R into [...]
