VIDEO: See how the Toyota 86Q was made

Of course, the Toyota 86Q, which is a mini-me one-off version of the Toyota 86/GT86 (Scion FR-S) sports coupe, which was launched last year alongside its Subaru BRZ twin, really is a Daihatsu Midget truck with some sporting credentials. Yes, they've used the chassis from a Midget truck and then loaded some 86 credentials to make it look like the miniature version so mini, it looks like it's a toy car life sized. Question is, how long did they made this one-off?

To find out, ExtremeDrivingTV has a video clip on how long did the 86Q was made. Wanna know how long? Watch the clip and find out and apologize to their English subtitles because it feels like it's been Google Translated...

TGUSA compares luxury offroaders

Top Gear USA compares three luxury offroaders to show off their natural-born talents not as a luxury car but an offroad machine in one package. Rutledge Wood opts in a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, while Adam Ferrera jumps in the Cadillac Escalade ESV, and Tanner Foust's in the Range Rover Sport.

Rut's SRT8 conquers the sand roads, Adam's Escalade passes the comfort test, and Tanner's Range Rooney passes the trailblazing test in flying colors.

After a race to a round of drinks at the ski resort, the real test begins at Mammoth Mountain. Because Rut's SRT8 is not good enough on snowy conditions, he opts out and instead chow down some meals at the lodge. Tanner's Range Rover seems to be seamless on this final challenge but Adam unleashes his secret weapon, that is calling someone to tow his Escalade to the finish line. As Tanner and his Range Rover is close to the end, it seems that the Range Rover hungs on its last breath. In other words, his Rangie's stuck and Tanner continues on foot where he saw Adam and his Caddy unexpectedly appeared at the finish line.

Forza Motorsport 4: 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series

The German Screamer

Using the R230 SL65 AMG as its basis, the Black Series is an upgraded version of the said model which comes with an improved version of a 6.0L V12 twin-turbo engine mated with an AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS five-speed automatic transmission. With the engine developing 661HP of power, it is the most powerful AMG model yet. 0-60mph in 3.7 seconds and top speed limited to 199mph.

Aside from its raw power, the Black Series is 250kg lighter than the regular SL65 because of the use of light carbon fiber composite (CFRP) parts and replacing the foldable hardtop roof with a fixed roof.

Jeremy Clarkson reviewed this on Top Gear Season 13 Episode 03 and when handed to The Stig, it set a lap time of 1:30 at the Top Gear Test Track.

2011 Volvo C30 Polestar Edition

So you all think that all Volvos are made for pensioners, eh? Well, this hot C30 model will change its course. Called the PCP, it uses a normal C30, which in Top Gear claimed it was the better looking of the small hatchbacks, as its basis but it comes with an improved 2.5L engine which bumps the power output up to 400hp. It was built for fun by Polestar, the company behind Volvo touring cars made for the Swedish Touring Car Championship and it has, and it was delightful to say if you're on a rainy day, four wheel drive, meaning you can reach amazing angles and you can still rescue it. On the inside, the dashboard's been covered by some kind of mole skin for added uniqueness.

1941 Jeep Willys MB

Once used as a military vehicle provided for the US Army, it was the originator of the word "Jeep". If it weren't for the Willys vehicle, perhaps the Jeep name wasn't invented and that brand wouldn't exsisted at all. There's a lot of puzzle about the origin of the Jeep word via this car, although it was claimed from the slurring of the letters GP, the military term for General Purpose while others say it came for a character named "Eugene the Jeep" from the Popeye cartoon strip. While the origins is still an enigma, the Jeep word was added at the lexicon and it became the workhorse for war or for off-road purposes.
