Imagining the Honda NSX R

Officially speaking, there is no Honda NSX R, but if there is, the car would have to be more radical. One of the possibilities, and quite logical, is to remove the front electric motors and the battery from the hybrid system. Therefore, the car would become a conventional […]

BMW i8 Spyder in Lego, by Sheepo

McLaren 540C Coupé, unveiled in China the model more "cheap" of the brand
