Sports car reviews, news and buying advice for Australian readers
The McLaren GT is not the car most people imagine when they think of McLaren. It lacks the aggressive aerodynamic bodywork of the 720S, the headline-grabbing performance figures of the Senna, and the drama of anything with a P1 badge. What it offers instead is something McLaren had never quite managed before: a genuinely comfortable, […]
Porsche built 1,250 units of the 911 Sport Classic. It has a manual gearbox, a widebody shape, a ducktail spoiler, a grey-green colour that Porsche calls Sport Classic Grey, and a 3.7-litre turbocharged engine. It is limited, it is manual, and it is immediately a collector’s car. In Australian terms, it is one of the […]
The Aston Martin DBS Superleggera occupies an interesting position in the British brand’s lineup: it sits above the DB11 as the more powerful, more extreme grand tourer, but lacks the track-focused brief of the Vantage. The DBS is, in the Aston Martin tradition, the car that combines maximum grand touring refinement with genuine supercar performance […]
The Porsche 911 GT3 Touring is the version of the GT3 that most people in Australia probably should buy. Where the standard GT3 with its large fixed wing announces itself from across a car park, the Touring specification replaces the wing with a small retractable spoiler that deploys automatically at speed, turning the GT3 into […]
The Aston Martin DB12 arrived in 2023 as the replacement for the DB11, and it came with a significant upgrade: more power, more technology, and a more assertive personality that positions it directly against the Ferrari Roma and Porsche 911 Turbo S in the grand touring market. In Australia, it is the most complete Aston […]
Two point seven seconds. That is the 0-100 km/h time for the Porsche 911 Turbo S in coupe form. It is a number that requires some context to appreciate: this is a car with seats for four people, a usable boot, a full suite of driver assistance systems, and air conditioning. It is practical in […]
The Porsche 911 Carrera S has been Australia’s benchmark driver’s car for longer than most people care to count. Not the most powerful car available, not the most exotic, and not the most expensive – but the one that consistently delivers the most satisfying balance of performance, usability, and character. The current 992-generation Carrera S […]
What 680 Horsepower Looks Like in School Drop-Off Traffic There is a particular kind of absurdity to the Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid. It seats five adults with room for luggage, rides with the composed comfort expected of a large luxury SUV, and will hit 100km/h from a standstill in 3.6 seconds. That is Lamborghini Huracan […]
Why Putting a GT3 Engine in a Cayman Was Such a Big Deal For years, Porsche kept the Cayman in a carefully managed position below the 911. The mid-engine car had better handling geometry, a lower centre of gravity, and a chassis that engineers and driving instructors alike would describe as more balanced. But it […]
The Car That Made Super Sedans Make Sense There is a version of events where the Mercedes-AMG C63 S never needed to exist. You already had the E63, the S63, the GT family. But AMG built it anyway, and what came out of Affalterbach was something that changed how Australian buyers thought about performance sedans. […]
