Tony Borroz grew up in a sportscar oriented family, but sadly, it was British cars. His knuckles still show the marks of slipped Whitworth sockets, strains to reach upper rear shock bushings on Triumphs, and slight burn marks from dealing with Lucas Electric “systems.” He has written for a variety of car magazines and websites, Automoblog chief among them. Tony has worked on popular driving games as a content expert, in addition to working for aerospace companies, software giants, and as a movie stuntman. He lives in the northeast corner of the northwestern most part of the Pacific Northwest.
Wow! This is the new Genesis X Concept, and to say it’s a looker would be a huge understatement. And...
It’s always something to watch when a racing car company makes a road car, or, even better, a track-day car. Sure, an individual can fiddle with a Honda Civic so they can go pound around their local track. But when someone like McLaren says, “Here, let us make you a...

March of 2021 marks the 50th birthday of the immortal Countach. If that makes you feel old, well, it should. To say that the Lamborghini Countach had an impact is sort of like saying J. Robert Oppenheimer was good with chemicals. The Countach was a design and performance explosion that...

Who asked for this? Did you ask for this? I didn’t ask for this, I can tell you that. This is the Airspeeder Mk3, the world’s first flying electric racing car. Or at least that’s if you believe Alauda, the makers of the Airspeeder Mk3. Do you see any wheels? I don’t...

BMW just rolled out the new 2022 M5 CS Sedan, and man, oh man, does this guy look right and proper. It’s the quickest and most powerful BMW production vehicle ever. Ever. It cranks out 627 horsepower and 553 lb-ft. of torque and, at 230 lbs. lighter than an M5 Competition,...

Details for the 2021 Mazda Miata have been released for the new model year. As with the previous three generations, Gen 4 keeps up the excellent work. The 2021 Mazda Miata is lightweight with a grip like a barnacle and lots and lots of fun. Oh, and they still cost...

Of late, high-performance Mercedes AMG cars have been making a big racket. I mean, they are loud. And Wotan knows this beast must have made some noise when it was blasting around the Nürburgring Nordschleife. In this case, though, the “big racket” we’re talking about is how the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT 63...

The 2021 VW Arteon is here, and it looks like Volkswagen is really going through with this big sedan thing. You’d think they would have learned their lesson with other high-end(ish) luxo-sedans from the recent past (the Phaeton), but they’re taking another run at it, this time with the Arteon....
