    Seven Days In New York City Showed Me How ‘Fashion Lazy’ Australians Have Become
    I spent seven days in New York in October, and the thing I keep coming back to isn't the food, the skyline or the price of a martini. It's how the people dress.
    Walk any street in Manhattan or Brooklyn and you'll see more genuine personal style in ten minutes than you'll see in a month in most Australian cities. It's confronting, and it's worth unpacking.
    New York is a genuine melting pot, and you feel it moving from the West Village to SoHo to the Lower East Side to Williamsburg. Every neighbo

    Tesla’s New Roadster Is Running A Banned Formula 1 Trick From 1978
    Tesla finally unveiled the new Roadster last Thursday, nine years after Elon Musk first promised it and a year after he teased tech crazier than anything in a Bond film. Naturally, the internet lost its mind over the bit where it flies, with the single-seat Rocket version launching off a curved ramp at SpaceX's test facility in McGregor, Texas, climbing roughly six metres into the air, rotating, and landing on its wheels using cold-gas thrusters borrowed from SpaceX.

    A Zeekr 7X Costs $58K In Australia. In Singapore, It’s Nearly $300K
    We were in Singapore last week and couldn't help noticing how many Zeekr 7Xs were on the road. It's the same Chinese electric SUV that has become a fixture in Australian driveways over the past year, which makes it easy to miss until you find out what one costs over there.
    The answer is around five times what it costs here.

    Every Watch James Bond Has Ever Worn On Screen, From Dr. No To No Time To Die
    Before the cars got silly and the villains got volcano lairs, Bond's watch was simply a tool. Somewhere along the way it turned into a gadget, then a product placement deal worth millions, and finally the most reliable sales pitch in watchmaking.
    What's fascinating is how neatly the collection tracks the times. Sixties Bond wore what a real naval officer would wear, seventies and eighties Bond wore whatever Seiko's quartz department had just invented, and modern Bond has been on Omega's books s

    Cartier’s Cult Driving Watch Lands In Australia This Month After 14 Years Away
    Fourteen years after it disappeared from the catalogue, the Cartier Roadster is coming to Australia, with the Maison confirming the relaunched collection launches locally this month.
    The Roadster first appeared in 2002 and ran for a decade before Cartier discontinued it in 2012. That left one of the brand's few properly sporty shapes to the pre-owned market, where it built a quiet following among collectors who wanted a Cartier that looked nothing like a Tank.

    Brace yourself. I've just become a Zeekr owner. My new 7X Performance AWD in Forest Green is sitting in the garage, and to get it there I sold what I still think is the greatest station wagon ever made.
    I was 50/50 on getting an EV right up until I made the call. Knowing a car stacks up on paper and handing over the keys to one you love are two very different feelings. And in this economy, finding something that slides under the EV FBT threshold was a smart financial move.

    Chevrolet has done something car companies almost never do. It has made its most expensive model in Australia cheaper, and not by a token amount either.

When the Z06 first landed here it carried a $336,000 sticker, so buyers are looking at a saving of just over $36,000 on the track-bred, naturally aspirated flagship of the range.
