Ford Australia will put the GT Black Concept that it showcased at the Melbourne Motor Show into limited production, after the positive response the showcar garnered.

 

To be called the FPV (Ford Performance Vehicles) GT Black, the menacing looking sedan will be limited to just 125 units, and will retail for AU$74,290. Which is still cheaper than a lot of lesser cars over here.

 

I was lucky enough to have seen the concept in the flesh in Melbourne, and I can attest to its popularity. The Aussies were simply loving the car as they crowded around the Ford stand.

 

It's a brooding, menacing, muscle car, with its matte black paintwork and aggressive styling details. And just look at that bonnet bulge! It hides a 5.0-litre supercharged Boss V8 with 449bhp and 570Nm of torque.

 

Those lucky Aussies.

 

Enjoy the pics. Because this might be the closest you could get to this beast.

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 2

    Note: Click here to read Pt. 1, where the journey began in Hong Kong. NEXT UP: CHONGQING Day 3, cont.: Dad had decided on the scenic route to Chongqing - train. We did not realise that the immigration process at the Hong Kong Kowloon West station involved both the Hong Kong and Chinese authorities, so we found ourselves in a rush to board the train (we boarded minutes before the scheduled departure). Through the eight-hour journey, the passing sights made me realise the diversity

    Fascinated by honey

    If there's one natural food (aka can be eaten raw) that I absolutely love, it's honey. Yes, there are countless varieties from around the world, but for this story, we'll talk about the kind that comes straight out of a hive, complete with honeycomb. I'm not an expert on this topic, but every time I consume raw, unprocessed honey, it tastes a lot better compared to honey that comes in a jar. No squeeze-bottle honey for me, please. Perhaps it's just my imagination, but raw honey doesn't

    Curry does not exist?

    Curry. When many of us think of Indian food, we naturally think of curry.  Except, well, 'curry' isn't actually a thing. Not the word, and not even technically the food that we think of.  Many of us probably think of curry as some sort of dish that has a gravy or sauce. But that is in fact a generalisation of a wide variety of Indian dishes, and also a decidedly Western invention intrinsically tied to India's Colonial past. 'Curry' as a word doesn't actually exist in the languages spok
