Toyota FT-86 concept
Banovsky on October 8, 2009
I think I can speak for enthusiasts everywhere when I say this car must be built.
Hailed as a spiritual successor to the legendary "AE-86" Corolla GT-S, this FT-86 concept mates reader drive, a Subaru derived flat-4 cylinder engine, and rear wheel drive.
Styling? Well, that's a home run. Simple yet aggressive, you'd never mistake this sports car for a Hyundai Genesis coupe, or a Volkswagen GTI, its natural competition.
We'll tell you more about this car once it's shown at the Tokyo Motor Show, but for now, what vehicle is its biggest competition?

Silly old ad: The Toyota Cavalier
Banovsky on September 28, 2009
Yes, Toyota sold a rebadged Chevrolet Cavalier in Japan. But was it a "new form of luxury" as the ads claim?

Trapeze-E G: the Infiniti G37 Anniversary Art Project G37 Coupe
Banovsky on September 25, 2009
Art is a beautiful thing. Like the Adult Swim x Kia Soul we posted a few months back, cars can be stunning when treated to an artists' brush. Update: now with video!!
This particular car was hand-painted over a month by Montréal artist Heidi Taillefer, and inspired by Cirque du Soleil.
Why? To commemorate Infiniti’s 20th anniversary. Partner Cirque du Soleil is celebrating its 25th anniversary, and will be on tour at Cirque du Soleil shows over the next few months. Then, if you'd like this piece of history, it'll be auctioned off.
Just remember to protect its one-of-a-kind paint.

What the…? Audi's e-TRON concept
Banovsky on September 14, 2009
Ok, so Audi's going to show this, their R8-based electric car concept, at the Frankfurt Motor Show, tomorrow. Why do we think it might be special? Audi keeps saying it'll be "electricity, untamed."
Though it looks like some low-rider enthusiasts mounted the rims, everything else is essentially a smoothed-over R8. Audi's microsite, at electricityuntamed.com (thanks, stergios!), gives facts that electricity "travels at speeds more than 670 million mph."
We'd be happy if this Audi was faster than a Tesla Roadster. Just sayin'.

2010 Porsche 911 Sport Classic, with video
Banovsky on September 4, 2009
Ok, I wasn't going to post on the not-available-in-North America 911 Sport Classic, an homage to the 1972 911 2.7 RS. But then, courtesy of our friends at carscoop.blogspot.com, the model's B-roll video was encoded and uploaded to YouTube, and what a sound it is. If you're going to listen to one song this year, make sure it was composed by the 2010 911 Sport Classic…

Community review: 2001 Ford Mustang
Banovsky on September 1, 2009
Especially with car buyers trying to save every last penny, our vehicle reviews are an invaluable resource. Every now and then, we'd like to highlight some of the great reviews our community members write at vLane.
Reviewer Liz Lantrip says her 2001 Ford Mustang:
It totally says that you are an awesome person.
Sold! Well, that's almost enough for us. Unfortunately, Liz had a few problems with her car:
I didn't like that it had transmision trouble at times. It would hesitate every once in a while and not respond if it was low on gas. The gas mileage was not near as good as my Chevy Cavalier, but it wasn't bad.
Still, though, she sums up her review of the Mustang with the following:
I loved every minute of driving in it, and would park on purpose near a window so I could see it out of whatever restaurant or store that I would go into. I loved this car so much, I was sad when I had to sell it. I'm happy it when to a good home though. My step sister now owns it and loves it too. I will forever be a Mustang fan.

Overseas awesome: 2010 Peugeot RCZ
Banovsky on August 30, 2009
Whoa, right? From the chrome-trimmed double-bubble top to the gaping "mouth" front air intakes, this 2010 Peugeot RCZ makes us jealous of Europeans.
Powered by a range in engines — both gasoline and diesel — and ranging from 1.6-litres to 2.0-litres, you wouldn't think the front-drive-only RCZ would be much of a driver's car. But you'd be wrong. The most powerful motor, a 1.6-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder (with twin-scroll turbo) pumps out an astonishing 200 horsepower, blasting the car to 60 mph in about 6.5 seconds.
Oh, and did we mention that the least efficient RCZ will do 33 mpg? The diesel will do a Prius-eating 46 mpg…

The oh-so-hot Mini Cooper Coupe Concept
Banovsky on August 26, 2009
Usually I like practical things. Like wagons. But in this case, since Mini decided to ditch the rear seats, practicality isn't a quality the (*cough* production-ready) Cooper Coupe has to embody.
Even by ditching the upright hatchback, the looks are love-it-or-leave it, admittedly. I love it. People are giving the rear spoiler some hate, saying it looks "tacked-on"…but it actually follows and is integrated into the roofline. Pretty swank. Also swank are the interior appointments, subtly altered from normal Minis.
Will they build it? I hope so. It'd give budget sports cars like the Mazda Miata, Hyundai Genesis Coupe, and lower trims of the Audi TT a run for their money.
