You Asked for It, You Got It

Apparently you can ride a car in space, but only if it’s a Toyota Celica liftback! At least the drivers have their helmets on. Safety first.

Nissan 240Z to 350Z

Charles Xiong — Wed, 13 May 2009 23:36:58 +0000

A resurrection of childhood fantasies. The new 350Z is faster, more powerful, and just as sexy as the original.

Charles Xiong — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:14:36 +0000

“You wouldn’t put the pedal to the metal and burn the bowtie clean off that Corvette, but you know you could.” We just love how these commercials taunt us.

Datsun 280ZX – Some Day

Charles Xiong — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 18:55:23 +0000

Just like this commercial, when we were kids we always told ourselves “some day” we would own a bad ass 280ZX. Vroom Vroom!
