From the Editor’s desk

Since 1996 New Zealand Performance Car has been the voice of the country’s modified import car scene. It was there to see the first import 10-second quarter mile run, there when the first official drift battle ensued, there when the first show trophies were handed out, and there to bring NZ its very first Super Lap time attack event. It’s no wonder, then, that NZPC is widely regarded as New Zealand’s import performance authority.
With an editorial, web, television, production and sales and marketing crew passionate about the product, and equally passionate about the cars that fill our magazine and web pages every month, we’ve managed to connect with our readers at face level and the results speak for themselves.
