After Triple Eight Race Engineering entered a wildcard in the 2022 Bathurst 1000, they’re expanding the campaign for 2023, with an all-new #888 Gen3 Chevrolet Camaro to enter multiple races - with a new driver pairing. After partnering Declan Fraser last year, Craig Lowndes will make his return, but Zane Goddard will be the new co-driver for 2023. Goddard lost his full-time seat at the end of the 2021 Supercars season, but was a co-driver with James Courtney at Tickford Racing for last year’s Bathurst 1000. The Lowndes-Goddard pairing will enter this year’s Sandown 500 and Bathurst 1000 enduros in a Gen3 Camaro engineered by former Triple Eight engineer Wes McDougall. At the Darwin Supercars round in June, Goddard raced the Camaro solo for 22nd, 21st and 24th results, giving…

While Chryslers on the Murray is the ‘big one’ for Chrysler fanatics, it’s not the only show that embraces all things Mopar. Chryslers by the Bay may be smaller in terms of numbers, but it attracts a strong – and diverse – turnout of cars each year. This year was no exception… The last time JUST CARS attended this annual show, it was back in 2020, and it would be one of the last automotive events completed before the cloak of COVID fell over the country. A week after the 2020 Chryslers by the Bay was run and done, the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix was cancelled before the F1 cars had even turned a wheel on the grid - and it only got worse from there. Seems a long…

Chevrolet have announced that a ‘Collector’s Edition’, to sign off the sixth-generation Camaro, will be available soon for the North American market. The reveal of the Collector’s Edition follows Chevrolet’s announcement back in March that Camaro production will come to an end in early 2024. While the nameplate is expected to return sometime in the future, it won’t be on a petrol-engined muscle car. Instead, the next Camaro is likely to be an EV of some sort. PANTHER REVIVAL Available on LT/RS, LT1, SS and ZL1 variants of the current Camaro, as well as coupe and convertible bodies, the Collector’s Edition will acknowledge a name that was used internally at Chevrolet ahead of the Camaro’s release in late 1966 as a 1967 model. When they were developing the first-generation Camaro…

As Mini joins many other car brands in moving to electrification - offering its last new internal combustion model in 2025 and going fully electric by 2030 - the change in motive power means manual transmissions will become obsolete. To sign off on this phase in Mini’s long history, a special model will be released – the Mini John Cooper Works 1to6 Edition. “With the Mini John Cooper Works 1to6 Edition, we are celebrating Mini’s legendary motorsport history and maximising the brand-typical driving experience,” said Stefanie Wurst, Head of Mini. Making its debut at the Nurburgring 24-Hour Race in May, the JCW 1to6 Edition will be limited to 999 units, and while “global” release of this total has been stated, none will be coming to Australia. No mention is made…

Mention ‘Chrysler 300’ today and most people think of the brawny sedan that debuted in 2004 (as the 300-C) and was only discontinued in Australia a couple of years ago. That car wasn’t the first “300” though. It owes its name - and much of its styling - to a Chrysler that had debuted almost 50 years earlier. The original Chrysler 300, known as the ‘C-300,’ was conceived as a car for driving enthusiasts; those that either owned or aspired to the high-performance sports cars and grand tourers that were coming out of Europe and the UK in the early 1950s. Chrysler themselves hedged their bets when launching the ‘C-300’ in January, 1955, describing it as a “sports touring car”. By that point, the Chevrolet Corvette and Ford Thunderbird had…
