What's hot this week

Tokyo auto show roundup
Each time the Tokyo auto show rolls around, we know we're in for a week of crazy concepts, souped-up sports cars, and glorious gadgetry. And this year's show didn't disappoint. Lexus, Nissan, and Suzuki made use of their home turf to show off some of their ideas for new models, while Nissan and Mitsubishi went for the shock factor with a couple of eclectic, electric concepts.
