Built-in 'swimming pool' in the Miata

IN Mazda, Miata, MX-5, Fog lamps

I was warned to constantly clear any debris, leaves, twigs, etc from the Miata's canvas roof surrounds. Some negligence on my part produced quite an interesting result...


Disc brakes are fitted to all wheels, with ventilated discs and Brembo double piston, fixed calipers at the front. Suspension is derived from a tried and tested Abarth configuration with the front provided by independent McPherson struts, while rear suspension is semi-independent with a torsion bar. Abarth has also fitted a larger anti-roll bar together with front springs that are 20% harder than those of a standard suspension system.

Italian Sting | Abarth Punto Evo

The scorpion stings again! This baby 'Evo' is Fiat's hotter Punto hatchback. Powered by a 170bhp Multiair 1.4 turbo petrol engine, it has some 'go' to match it's racy looks.

Honda Prelude 2.3A

IN Honda, Prelude, Coupé

She's a pretty 18 year-old with a curvaceous hot body and a voluptuous rear-end. They sure don't make coupés like they used to.

Double Dose | A Pair of EVO GSRs

IN Evo, GSR, Yellow, White

What's interesting about these cars is that they belong to the same owner. Many people have two or more cars, but rarely does a person buy the same model, twice! It simply shows how great the Evo is.


This yellow Silvia S15 was setup so nicely with what looked to me like a Vertex kit. Staggered wheels so neatly tucked under the fenders.

Carpark Shoot | Formula Drift Singapore 2010

IN Carpark, Spectators, Candid

Every now and then, we spot some sweet cars at an event and snap a few photos. These were from the Formula Drift Singapore 2010.


Even though the 1 series is really like a squashed 3 series - some angles are still rather handsome.

Black is back! BMW 135i Coupe

IN Bmw, 135i, Black, 19

Powered by a 3-liter twin-turbocharged engine producing 300 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque. This baby Bimmer is in Porsche Cayman S territory - at half the price.


Original colour code for this Deep Green Toyota paintwork was sourced for and meticulously sprayed on over weeks - the outcome is a rich and glossy job that is capable of turning one green with envy. Front bumper sports a reproduced TRD chin spoiler (TRD turns 35 this year by the way - Ed.).

Back to the Old Skool. Toyota Celica TA22

IN Celica, Green, Retro

Classic cars are a rare sight in modern Singapore, even rarer is this beautiful example of a 1970's Toyota Celica TA22. Restored to a gorgeously pristine state, it's arguably the best unit around.
