John Lloyd

John Lloyd covers the messier side of the car world: celebrity garages, motorsports drama, and whatever strange automotive thing blew up online that week. He likes the spot where cars meet culture, and he'll tell you why a celebrity just dropped a fortune on a hypercar or why one model is suddenly all over your feed, usually with a little attitude. To John, a car is a status symbol or a money pit, and occasionally both.
