East Coast Defender has made a name for itself by taking Land Rover Defenders and endowing them more power and classier interiors. The Florida-based company has returned with two new Defender D110s that utilize the same underpinnings, but couldn鈥檛 be more different. The two new SUVs include Project Venture, which joins the company under its Heritage Collection, and Project Dark Knight that鈥檚 classified as parts of East Coast Defender鈥檚 Custom Collection. We鈥檒l start with the latter of the two offerings. Project Dark Knight isn鈥檛 a machine to appease Batman fans. Instead, the name aptly describes the paint scheme the SUV is wearing. The custom Defender is finished in black eggshell, but also has Wolfrace Vermont polished 20-inch wheels, an external roll cage, LED spotlights, and a winch on the outside. Besides the shiny wheels, the SUV looks like a low-profile off-roader. Things are a little different on the inside, though.
The SUV features seating for six passengers thanks to gorgeous brown seats. There鈥檚 an elegant pattern on the seats that really makes the vehicle look upscale. The cabin looks fantastic, but the Momo Gotham steering wheel and center console look out of place. Still, it definitely looks comfortable. Under the hood, Project Dark Knight features a General Motors LC9 5.3-liter V8 engine that generates 320 horsepower. The engine is paired to a six-speed automatic gearbox. The Defender D110 that鈥檚 known as Project Venture is a little different. It looks larger than Project Dark Knight and more willing to get dirty. The SUV features a traditional exterior paint scheme, Keswick Green, and has a few extra components to make it more useful when the road gets tough. There鈥檚 an exterior roll cage with a roof rack, a rear ladder, black powder coated side steps, and, of course, a winch. If you thought a 5.3-liter V8 was impressive, Project Venture is powered by a 430-hp 6.2-liter V8 that鈥檚 matched to a six-speed automatic transmission. Once again, East Coast Defender has redone the interior, but it doesn鈥檛 look as opulent as the one in Project Dark Knight. Gray leather seats with green accents help add some color to the cabin, while a Momo Jet steering wheel, wireless charging, and a Sony infotainment system help usher it into modern times. We鈥檇 love to have both of these custom Defenders in our garage, but they鈥檙e probably way out of our budgets. You know it鈥檚 a bad sign when a company doesn鈥檛 announce pricing for a vehicle. Still, if you have the funds and are in need of a machine that has luxury and unbeatable off-roading capability, Project Venture and Dark Knight are both excellent choices.
The 2015 Mazda Mazda3 3s Grand Touring, which comes in hatchback and sedan editions, sits at the apex of the Japanese compact car's trim pyramid. A 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine is standard with the Mazda3 3s Grand Touring, and it provides 184 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque along with the choice between either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. Fuel economy for the frugal Mazda shows as 28-mpg city and 39-mpg highway. Refreshed for the current model year, the 2015 Ford Focus Titanium combines many of Ford's different options packages for the compact sedan and hatchback. You can also order the Titanium Technology package, which includes extra safety gear, as well as the option of a sunroof, a navigation system, and even an automatic parking feature. The Focus Titanium's engine is the same 2.0-liter, four-cylinder mill found with the base model, which means 160 horsepower and 146 lb-ft of torque, and buyers can choose between either a five-speed manual or a six-speed dual-clutch automated manual gearbox. Fuel economy for the Titanium is listed at 27-mpg city and 37-mpg highway. The 2015 Acura ILX is a compact economy car with definite luxury leanings, which means that even entry-level editions are quite well-equipped. The 2.4 Premium Package includes a 201 horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that is also good for 170 lb-ft of torque. Unusual in its class, this top-shelf Acura is only offered with a six-speed manual transmission, and fuel efficiency checks in at 22-mpg around town and 31-mpg during highway cruising.
