Super Stock Style For A Street-Driven ’64 Dodge 330

Mark Bonnett’s 1964 Dodge 330 is a performer that defies most of the categories and genres used today, and that’s exactly what drew us to the period-inspired Mopar. It’s certainly not a pro-touring car and the term resto-mod suggests at least some modern updates such as disc brakes or an overdrive transmission. It’s got none of that.… The post Super Stock Style For A Street-Driven ’64 Dodge 330 appeared first on The Online Automotive Marketplace.

Amazing Toyota GR Yaris GRMN timed on track and 0-60mph

Sell your car for free with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Sell-Your-Car-For-Free-3105 How’s THIS for a World Exclusive! Mat’s flown over to Japan, and he’s got his hands on every edition of GR Yaris ever made! But that’s not all, he’s going to be the first journalist EVER to take these cars around Toyota’s all-new test track! During this video, he’ll get his hands on the 1st generation, the Japan-exclusive GRMN, the 2nd generation (both manual & automatic), and the limited-edition Ojier & Rovanperä editions! So let’s take a look at how they compare. Starting with the 1st GR Yaris, it comes with a 1.6-litre 3-cylinder engine that produces 272hp and 370Nm. It’s equipped with a switchable four-wheel drive system and a 6-speed manual gearbox, and it truly is an affordable and incredible rally car for the road! Then we come to the GRMN edition. Only 500 were ever made, and while horsepower is the same, torque increases slightly to 390Nm. The car also comes with several other upgrades, including a carbon fibre wing and bonnet, a lower ride height, and a load of Alcantara on the inside! Then we come to the second generation. Power has been increased to 300hp and 400Nm, and it’s available either manually or automatically. It comes with stiffer suspension, a 20mm lower ride height than the gen one, and a set of digital dials. It also comes with a loftier price tag, starting at £40,000. And then finally we have the two limited-edition models, built with personal input from drivers from the Toyota Gazoo Racing WRC team. Both editions have exclusive paint jobs, improved rear wings, as well as drive mode settings personally chosen by the two drivers. Both cars are limited to just 200 editions each! It’s the video every GR Yaris fan has been waiting for, but which will Mat choose as his favourite? You’ll need to keep watching to see for yourself!

13 Ford Cars Every Gearhead Knows And Loves

Ford has long fostered a dynamic relationship with car enthusiasts around the world. The Blue Oval is behind many nameplates that captured the hearts and wallets of car geeks, from the early days of the Model T to the modern era of high-performance Mustangs and F-150 Raptors. The relationship between Ford and enthusiasts represents a century-long legacy. The birth of the Mustang literally sparked the muscle car era and championed American automotive excellence.

There are many lovable cars in the Blue Oval’s portfolio, but these 13 are historically enthusiast delights.

Buick Envista First Look: This Cute Coupe Delivers Luxury and Tech, and It's Affordable!

Buick got a whole new look, from its logo to its front face, grille, headlights, and more, and the Envista is the first to carry it all forward. This new coupe is the entry-level Buick and it will be priced from $23K-$29K when it goes on sale later this summer. Envista includes luxury features like leather (or leatherette) seating; a wireless phone charger and elegant soft-touch surfaces; beautiful colors, from cream upholstery to lovely exterior tones of platinum and pearl white; a quiet ride and thoughtful touches, like a sunroof and Apple CarPlay. The Envista is powered by a 3 cylinder turbo engine that generates 136 HP and 162 torque. That’s enough power for its size and should be fully confident merging onto the highway and handling daily driving. And, the smaller engine size means it should be pretty fuel efficient; it’s estimated to get about 30 MPG city/highway combined. There are three Envista trims that range from sporty to luxury: Preferred, ST and Avenir, which is the name for Buick’s top luxury trim. It features a premium leather interior usually only found in more expensive cars. Ready to shop for this vehicle?

Dave Ramsey Says Millionaires Drive These 10 Cars: Are They Worth the Price?

First things first: Who is Dave Ramsey, anyway? He’s just America’s favorite financial guru, New York Times bestselling author, TV Show host, and nationally syndicated radio personality. The man has nearly one million followers on X (formerly Twitter), so when he talks, people listen. Last month, Mr. Ramsey made an X post that particularly reverberated in the automotive world. The post implied that contrary to common perception, millionaires don’t drive flashy cars. Without going into details about where he got his data, Ramsey made a list of the top ten car brands driven by millionaires, and there was not a Rolls-Royce, Bentley, or Lamborghini represented. If you live in upper-middle-class neighborhoods where parking lots are dotted with Teslas and Maseratis, you might find Ramsey’s claims a bit too hard to swallow. That’s a debate for another time. Today, we focus on determining if the cars on Ramsey’s list are worth their prices.
