The Toyota Prius is definitely not the sort of the car that you would expect to be seeing here, but just like any other car, this too can be modified and with the right team behind the project, there is no reason to expect a top job. Well this Toyota Prius Hybrid project has a top team, lead by Tunerzine and backed up by some of the industry’s top names, who will be providing services such as artwork by www.gurnade.com, www.wraptivo.com who will be providing the essential car wrap,

The Nissan 350Z had good nine year production run, during which time the car has basically remained the same but for a few minor changes and upgrades. It had the great 3.5 litre power unit that produced a slightly under rated 287 HP, but with some factory tweaks this could easily be brought up to a more reasonable 350 HP and a choice of either a racy six speed manual or the smoother five speed auto gearbox.

The Mitsubishi Eclipse is one of those strange cars that a manufacturer through its international partnerships shares and so we end up with the same car, but with many brand names. This is cool for the car maker but highly confusing for some consumers and the Mitsubishi Eclipse is no exception, this car is also known as the Eagle Talon and the Plymouth Laser through the DSM partnership.
However, we will stick to

It is amazing to think that the GS300 has actually been in production for over twenty years and in that time the body shape has changed little from the design that first come off the Toyota production line in 1991! However, as will all cool car designs, Toyota has managed to evolve this model four times and that is why the GS300 from Lexus has been a great success and yet the import builder has avoided this car.
Maybe it is because the GS300 is a

The Scion XB is a car made to be modified, as a base model this is just a mini MPV based on the Toyota Yaris platform it is very square and as a basic car has plenty of scope in fact there is probably more chances for modification than any other car around at the present. It must be down to the plain style of body that it reminiscent of a small van, with square lines and large body panels that offer the builder plenty of opportunities to uses their imagination.

It is funny to think of this car as the fifth generation Prelude, have there really been that many changes to this car over the years since it first entered the small sports coupe market back in 1978. Back then the Prelude competed with the Toyota Celica and the Nissan Silvia, the Prelude must have had something right as it managed to survive right up until 2001 when production finally came to an end and other models took up the challenge.

When the Fresh Touring Origination (FTO) was first brought out by Mitsubishi in 1994, it was a step up in design and performance for a car of this size and market slot, but it is a sad fact only around 36,000 of these cars were made over the six year production run. This is a real shame because; this is a car that offered the consumer some serious performance and styling unlike anything else seen in the sector of the market.

Whether you are going to call this a Solara or Camry makes little difference, after all that is merely a name, but the car behind it is something special. The Solara is large two door coupe powered by either a 2.2 litre four cylinder engine or the more preferable 3.0 litre V6 power unit capable of delivering over 200 HP with ease and with the potential for much more too, despite there being just two choices of gear box the four speed auto and the five speed manual.

First of all this is a Honda Civic Shuttle and yes you may ask why on earth we are even mentioning this serious family vehicle on these pages, ordinarily you would be right but we are uber fans of import builders and modified cars! This version of the Honda Civic Shuttle qualifies under both heading and therefore has earned the Honda Civic Shuttle right to appear here front and centre, but first what on earth is a Honda Civic Shuttle?

When you spend a lot of time looking at new or nearly new cars, they can often blend into one mass, but when a car from the 1970’s pops up, it is like a breath of fresh air as some of these cars are real stars. Of course, not all cars from that era are classy or even nice to look at, but I think the Datsun K Series really stands out from crowd, it has lines and curves that only cars from these era could have.
