Beautiful weather today so I took my Tamiya car to a parking lot across the street from my house to play around with. I even tried shooting a video (below) which didn’t come out as I planned! Its a really cool car but I keep wishing I had the real version instead. I am going to get soooo much more Tamiya cars though, its like I finally found myself a hobby! [YouTube]

The new Patrol is so ugly that it makes the new Land Cruiser look good. [Link]

I read somewhere online about the latest Ford Fiesta review on the show Top Gear being the best car review ever and I just watched it and would have to agree. I am not going to give any spoilers just watch the clip above. [YouTube]

I didn’t know the new Challenger was already in Kuwait but it looks like its here (imported) and someone is selling it on q8car. Asking price… KD19,500. It costs around KD12,000 on eBay so if you’re interested just import one yourself and save a few thousand dinars. [Link]

While out playing with my Tamiya Frog today I hit this big rock and ended up dislocating the drive shaft from the rear axle and ripping up the joint boot. Its not a problem though since I already took apart the rear of the Frog and will fix it and put it back together again tonight. Just need to pass by the My Toy workshop in Muthana and pick up some grease and a new joint boot. This is what I love about these RC cars, you can take them apart and put them back together or swap out parts when something goes wrong just like real cars.

Pictures of the 2010 Mercedes E-Class have leaked online. Can Mercedes seriously get any duller with their designs? [Link]

Took the Frog out for some bashing in the sun. It was a lot of fun, check out some more pictures below.

I missed out on GulfRun this year but from what I’ve heard it was even more fun than last years. Lots of action and I am just waiting for everyone to start posting their pictures. Tonight at 11PM Watan TV is actually going to broadcast GulfRun 4 so if you want to check it out just tune in.

Update: Pictures are [Here]!

Update2: Its 11:12PM and it still hasn’t started, there is another show on so I guess the timing I got was wrong.

They’re going to need something a lot faster than a Mustang if they expect to catch up with some of the cars in Kuwait.

Thanks Ali

Official pictures of the new 4-door Porsche Panamera are out and the car still looks as ugly as the original spy shots. [Link]

I’ve always liked the look of the 350z and the new 370z slightly improves on it except for the rear which reminds me of the Maxima for some reason. [Pictures]

A reader called Camil sent me the pictures below of the new Mercedes F700 in Dubai. The car looks extremely ugly but I have yet to see an environmentally friendly car that didn’t, actually the Tesla is pretty cool but thats like the only one that is.

I heard about this earlier in the week and a reader called Aadel just sent me pictures of it. Early Friday morning a Ferrari was involved in a high speed crash on the Gulf Road, I don’t know what caused the crash but judging by the pictures the car got thorn torn up into pieces and then caught fire. You can check out more pictures by clicking on continue below.

Will someone in Kuwait please buy this car? Someone is selling a 1979 BMW M1 on eBay for KD50,000 which is a steal when you consider the fact that soulless Gallardos go for more. This is one really incredible car. [eBay]
