Is this concept the return of the DATSUN 240Z? We hope so…
Sadly, this is just a render. But one can dream, right?
Nissan has mulled over the idea of returning Datsun as a sub-brand, bringing back the 240Z… AFTER they deal with their CEO problem.
But… if they do decide to rock the 240Z, we’ll be on board if it looks like this. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?? Leave a comment…
Say hello to the beautiful AJ (Adrienne Janic) from OVERHAULIN…’
In my business, I get to meet a lot of really great and talented people. So, I’m gonna post some here on the Fireball Blog from time to time.
Today, it’s AJ from Overhaulin.’ I’m sure you recognize her from Chip’s show, but did you know that she’s a mix of Serbian and Mexican? How cool is that?
Well, here we are at the last Grand Nationals… a great show and she’s a real sweetheart or a Car Girl.

A super intense adrenaline week in the 2020 CHEVY CAMARO 1LT…
When someone tells you that a car “feels” like an extension of themselves, it “feels” like a cliche. I mean, how can a car feel like an extension of your arms legs… and ears?
But if you can’t understand how that can be so, let me explain by saying that obviously, you haven’t driven the right car yet.
This is not something that’s going to happen necessarily in a regular sedan and is most likely targeted to a performance car.
But I’ve driven virtually every kind of car on the planet and when I say that the 2020 CAMARO 1LT feels like and extension of myself… I mean exactly that.
It’s pinpointed accuracy is like a perfect Karate Kata… Each move directly focused to where you want it to go. Street, Track, Freeway, Driveway. It’s like a perfect suit that can be removed to an MMA Status, ready for anything.
The design has evolved slowly since this gen first came out and is getting leaner and meaner as the years go by. Less nostalgic and MORE EVOLVED. At this rate, it can only go forward.
Knowing Chevy, they are currently working on the NEXT GEN as I write this, being inspired by not only performance tech and mean design, but EV Hyper-power. You CAN’T have a 4-door Tesla be beating a Camaro, and they know this which is why this time in Camaro’s life it’s so EXCITING.
This next month marks the launch of our CAMARO Coloring Book and it’s perfectly appropriate as this mesomorphic beast is taking 6 hour workouts very seriously in the hands of enthusiasts. The design is sculpturally beautiful and the interior as close to a fighter cockpit than anything else. Even some Jets I’ve seen.
Mustangs and Mopars are also solid members of the Musclecar Family, but Camaro is piercingly serious about a focus and determined future. THAT… is clear by GM launching the EV Hummer soon and not a regular SUV. Nothing normal seems to be happening at GM right now.
I’m VERY excited about the future of Camaro’s intensity. Driving it for a week kept my blood pumping in the right direction and luckily, out of the pokie as it does make a fun car for the Malibu canyons too.
Again, an already sleek machine of road destruction and I anticipate more Transformers action in the near future…

A smooth week in the revised 2020 LEXUS ES300h HYBRID…
Sedans are plentiful with brands nowadays. So much so that it can be hard to tell them apart… were you to remove the badging.
So what are they doing to make themselves stand out DESIGN-WISE. As we are a design-blog, I’ll leave the tech stuff for the next guy and simply mention 44mpg, 2.5l 4cyl Hybrid Drive and a $53K Dagger.
When I look at cars, rarely do I see them as they stand but rather what they could become. They’re POTENTIAL. Something that makes them unique to you. And with that in mind, I’m going to include some Fireballness in all my design reviews from now on.
Case in point, this new 2020 LEXUS ES 300h. It’s an absolutely terrible name to call a car with no creativity at all… so we’re going to change it to the SHOGUN and give it a bit of flair below.
Out of the box, the Lexus’ “pinch” language is still working for them although slowly entering into it’s twilight years. Time for some freshness soon, but I’m sure that’s happening. The best part of this 2020 model? The INTERIOR. A sexy-cool space that pities the fool who doesn’t spend time in the rear.
Seriously, how many people buy these cars and NEVER sit in the rear. Fo-Shame. But the cockpit is smooth and sexy and really well executed with it’s material choices and sculpture.
EXTERIOR is still ok, yet feeling beefy. Quarter Ponder Beefy. It’s a big car for sure and with some color-change options other than silver, might help lighten it up.
Our SHOGUN mods reveals what could be done with this Lexus should you get a wee bit ballsy. Slight color separation in the body panels breaks up the heaviness and with the addition of some WARRIOR SPIRIT and larger blacken rims… helps to complete the setup.
Not a costly excursion should you decide to add some flavor to the stock version. Would be a sleek sled for slides to Vegas.
We like the 2020 LEXUS, but eagerly looking to see their language EVOLVE. The grills are big enough now and will pretty much take over the entire front end soon. We’d recommend sketch development and exploring areas of INSPIRATION. But as we doubt that Lexus is really listening, let’s just keep our swords crossed and drive on…
