2010 Lexus LF-A mule unseats Porsche GT2 as King of the ‘Ring
Lexus LF-A
A Lexus LF-A mule has unofficially recorded a lap time on the Nordschleife of 7 minutes, 24 seconds. This is not in dispute. What is in dispute is how many seconds faster the LF-A’s lap time is than that of the 2008 Porsche 911 GT2, the previous “King of the ‘Ring” record holder. Wikipedia notes that the fastest 911 GT2 driven around the Ring posted a lap time of 7 minutes, 32 seconds

Hyundai Sonata – Changing our perceptions of the carmaker in a good way
Hyundai Sonata
Midsize sedans have long been a bread and butter product for car manufacturers, not to mention a great way to gain brand loyalty with customers, as well as earn recognition from the critics. It’s no surprise, then, to see Hyundai go all out with its recent redesign of the Sonata. As one of the few automotive success stories of these tough economic times, Hyundai is on the verge of

Ford Focus : Global Car basically the third generation
Ford Focus
The Ford Focus has always been one of the best-handling C-segment cars I’ve ever driven. The biggest drawback it has for the Malaysian market is that it’s a little small on the inside, being an European product where their C-segment cars are a little smaller. Their Civic is a smaller hatch compared to the large 2,700mm wheelbase version we get here.
And here it is, the latest edition
