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.
