Auto Focus Channel - Season 02

  There are so many hyped up old cars that come into the US under the 25 year rule, that a lot of the lesser fawned over ones tend to fall under the radar. This is one of those cars: the first ge...

  Gridlife’s time attack and road racing series has seriously brought out some of the very best and most interesting builds across America. Much like this full tube chassis old school CRX, built ...

  Nissan’s 300zx might be one of the most unloved, and arguably underrated 90s era JDM halo cars. Sure, they were hard to work on. And maybe didn’t make the same power as a 2jz could. But as with...

  When you’re ill with fabrication and engineering, this is what you end up with when you decide to do something with all the spare parts you’ve got laying around the garage: a BMW M62 powered mk...

  We imagine there was a time where 1JZs or LSs were super cheap and plentiful, which is exactly why they became so popular to swap in the first place. So what’s the cheap, hot swap right now? Ho...

  This is peak rally nerd-ism when it comes to production cars: the Subaru 22b. Sure, there was the Tommi Makinen edition Evo, but this here car is special – extremely so. With just over 400 of t...

  Seriously though, what other car can you buy these days that rides like an S-class, beats damn near any car off the line, AND can beat a McLaren F1 at Tsukuba? However you feel about electric c...

  Sure, there are cars faster than this 80s Audi Quattro… maybe a lot. Maybe not. Does it matter? When you hear that 5 cylinder echo through the Pikes Peak Hill Climb, along with a healthy amount...
