I have wanted a Lexus for as long as I can remember.
Take it back to when Mase was running around in shiny suits, name-dropping a Lex in his verses while I was sitting in high school taking notes. Before Maybachs and McLarens became the default flex, Hip Hop genuinely loved Lexus. It was clean, reliable and meant you had arrived.

Chevy’s High Country trim has always been the “we made it, so let’s dress it up” version of things. It’s the top-shelf pour. And for 2027, that trim is getting its biggest glow-up in a while, starting with the Traverse before it rolls over to the Next-Gen Silverado 1500.

I was literally just asking myself the other day what happened to car colors. Growing up, you’d see red cars, green cars, brown cars. Real personality on the road.

If you like driving—and I mean actually driving, not just commuting with adaptive cruise control on—you need to look at the 2026 GRMN Corolla. Toyota is pitching this as the absolute peak of the GR lineup. Translated from corporate-speak: it goes fast, it handles like it’s on rails, and it’s built purely for driver joy.

There is an old saying: support those who support you. So, when Hyundai showed up as a main sponsor for the 2026 BET Awards, they instantly earned some major cool points with me.
So, how did Hyundai invest in culture during the 2026 BET Awards?

Can Mazda’s new car color increase your mood? Maybe. While no scientific study proves that driving a green car will instantly make you calmer, decades of color psychology research suggests green is associated with balance, nature, and relaxation. Mazda’s new Zinc Green isn’t just another paint option—it may subtly change how you feel every time you get behind the wheel.
