Winter is upon us, and the decision of what to drive throughout the inclement weather is drawing near. Do you go the reliable route with something large, heavy, truck-like? Or keep it subtle yet aggressive with one of the many turbo/AWD contenders on the market? David Charland (or “DeeSan”) had a completely different idea altogether; a 350Z!? Read More »

There are few experiences as amazing as stepping into a new car. Every sense is stimulated by the freshest in ICE technologies, the sounds of the newest engines, and that oh-so-distinctive, irreplicable new car smell. The cars that are being made today are faster, better-appointed, and more efficient than ever. And yet, the vintage scene is larger than it's ever been before. Classic muscle car enthusiasts are currently spending tens of thousands of dollars creating Pro-Touring cars out of 35 year old Detroit iron, import fans are hunting down seemingly forgotten Japanese performance models, and wheel companies are re-releasing wheels that five years ago would have been easily found in a junkyard. Every time the scene delivers an unworldly 1000 HP GTR or LF-A, a mint condition Hakosuka or 2000GT rises up from the annals of history to remind us that newer doesn't exactly mean better.

With every new model release comes new potential. Every year, car enthusiasts watch new vehicles hit the show floors across the world at shows in Detroit, Las Vegas and Tokyo and the first thing that comes to mind is how much better that car would look if _______________ was done to it. Seeing commercials, show coverage and photoshopped pictures of the new models exponentially increases the anticipation of how it can be modified. Whether it’s a certain set of wheels, a slight or dramatic drop, or specific exterior modifications, we can all picture it and build a full show car in our minds (with those imaginary, unlimited funds we also possess) before we even see it in person. After the car hits the showroom floor and goes up for sale, everyone anxiously awaits the first person to start modifying it. It’s a heavy weight Dan Allard has once carried on his shoulders but when he started modifying his Vauxhall Corsa, all eyes were on him and he did anything but disappoint… Read More »

Usually when you hop on your computer or phone, tap in Canibeat.com, and let the page load, you find yourself overwhelmed with shots of imports or European cars that seem to be closer to the pavement than you were to your date in high school. From time to time though, we like to throw you a curve-ball and today we have the honor of introducing to you Mark’s bagged crew-cab dually Chevy truck, which is big enough to have its own zip code.

"The automotive scene makes homes to many differently styles of tuning culture. Be it race cars, VIP cars, drift cars or off the wall exotics. But one thing that bring all these styles together is their shared love for cars. Now days people spend too much time talking about why they're cool and why you're not. The Tokyo Auto Salon brings every style together under one roof and shares it with the world. Surely we can all appreciate each others cars more than once a year, can't we?"

Some of us like to be different and stick out from the crowd and not be the following type. People choose differently by the type of mods they do such as using out of the ordinary colors or rare exterior parts on their vehicle. Jose Lopez started out his build very different by choosing a chassis you don't see too many people modifying, a Nissan Cube. Read More »
