I mean, if you’re going for a 12-9-6 tricompax layout in that design language, then a busy dial isn’t something you’re really worried about. This isn’t some minimalist Bauhaus piece from a watchmaker in Glashütte after all. It honestly looks like just another marking on an already busy dial.

Somehow fitting since the DB7 famously used stuff from the Mazda parts bin.

Put up your own NGO and then hit up Toyota Gibraltar Stockholdings, the dealership which outfits these for various NGOs around the globe.

It’s been available in many places around the world outside of the US. It’s mostly kept around because it’s what many NGOs as well as companies involved in mining, oil drilling, etc. prefer to use for on site transport. There’s a specific deal in Gibraltar — Toyota Gibraltar Stockholdings — that specializes in kitting…

Luckily the new J250 Land Cruisers we see here are only two-row.

I mean, NGOs and mining companies around the world need to have something to use.

Since the Prado I posted earlier might have been an unofficial render, here the 2024 70 series to make up for it.

Hmm, got it from some regional sites, but it seems these are all renders. So we might actually get something better looking.

It looks to be more J60-inspired though.

True, sadly most Prado buyers aren’t exactly looking for the same off-road performance/heritage since the Land Cruiser name has long become more associated with luxury and opulence. And anyone looking to off-road or overland a Land Cruiser still has the option of buying a 70-series in most countries outside the US.

Who also has a sim racing rig in his motorhome (not jet though, as Marko earlier stated).

For those wondering, the rest of the world gets a more modern looking fascia for when this is sold as the Land Cruiser Prado.

I mean, what are the chances Schmidt actually uses this on a regular basis over his other superyacht instead of just chartering it out to make some money to pay for the upkeep?

At this point, people will just have to concede that Max is that good. The guy lives and breathes racing to the point where he’s sim racing on his free time. With how much more he outperforms Checo, in the same car, it’s not hard to imagine he’d still be winning in any of the remaining top 3 or 4 cars.

The 240ZG isn’t even the most recent example of Nissan extending a Z’s nose prior to this. Back in the mid 2000s, Nissan released the JDM-only Fairlady Z Type E with a slightly longer nose and rear overhang plus a few other aero tweaks, simply because it needed it for JGTC/Super GT homologation (this was before the…

I wonder if the car being built by Multimatic has anything to do with it, since the Porsche 963 LMDh they’re bringing to the WEC are also built by Multimatic.

Because the motorsports world revolves around more than Aussie Supercars.

More like missing the point since the Mustang in the article isn’t for Supercars but for its own one-make series in IMSA.

Renault/Alpine is somehow making a name for itself for making bad decisions in the sport. From stringing along both Alonso and Piastri and then losing them both, to the engine issues. And it’s starting to bleed onto other efforts, Alpine is looking to race in Le Mans with an LMDh powered by a modified Mecachrome F2…

Except turbos still add a fair bit of complexity, and more importantly, cost. Cammisa said it best–there used to be an entire class of relatively affordable sports coupes, but everybody started bolting on more power and soon they started getting more expensive and died out.
