Founder and Editor, Road News
Koome M. is the founder and editor of Road News. He started it because most coverage of exotic and luxury cars is written for overseas buyers, and the Australian details, such as luxury car tax, import rules and what a car costs to run here, are hard to find in one place.
He researches and edits every article on the site. Prices, tax figures and availability are checked against primary sources, such as the ATO, state revenue offices and the car makers, and the date of each check is recorded. The full method is on the How We Check Our Facts page.

The Turbo S is the everyday weapon, the GT3 the driver's car. We compare power, usability, running costs and value for Australians who want one 911 to do everything.
A naturally aspirated V12 against a twin-turbo V8, both hybrid, both flagships. We compare the Revuelto and SF90 Stradale on power, character, cost and ownership in Australia.
Both are hybrid Ferraris, but the SF90 is the V8 flagship and the 296 the V6 mid-ranger. We compare power, price, feel and purpose for Australian buyers.
On 15 September 2025, Porsche Cars Australia sent a Taycan Turbo GT down Sydney Dragway and recorded a 9.083 second quarter mile at 252.04km/h, a time Porsche describes as the fastest unmodified production car run recorded on an Australian drag strip. It is quick enough to trigger the 150mph parachute-mandatory rule. The car doing it […]
BMW builds the M4 Competition and the M3 Competition from the same engine, the same power figures, and near enough the same chassis. The only meaningful differences are the number of doors and $5,000. For buyers deciding between them, that makes the decision less about performance and entirely about which body style they actually want […]
Audi has quietly pulled the RS6 Avant Performance from its Australian order books. There is no fanfare, no farewell edition, just a product page that now points buyers toward pre-owned stock. It is the last non-hybrid V8 super-wagon Audi will build, and it disappeared with barely anyone noticing. The Brief The RS6 Avant has been […]
Godzilla was named in Australia, landed here in 2009 at $155,800, and ended production in 2025. Now values are climbing, and the smartest money knows the one question to ask first: Australian-delivered or import?
The Specialist and Enthusiast Vehicle Scheme – SEVS – is the mechanism by which hypercars and exotic vehicles that are not offered through official Australian channels are legally imported and registered. Understanding SEVS is essential for any buyer considering a vehicle that falls outside the standard dealer network. What SEVS Is SEVS is administered by […]
What the 992.2 Actually Changed The 992.1 GT3 RS was already difficult to improve. Porsche had taken their most extreme road-legal 911, fitted it with a DRS-style aerodynamic package borrowed from motorsport, and produced something that the Nurburgring could not ignore. The lap record followed. So when Porsche announced a 992.2 update, the reasonable question […]
The Rimac Nevera set an acceleration record of 0-100 km/h in 1.85 seconds. It set a kilometre time of 19.32 seconds. It became the fastest-accelerating production car ever tested by multiple independent organisations. It also had software issues, regulatory problems, and a production process that challenged even the most experienced manufacturers. The Nevera beat everything, […]
