Breaking Car News, Vintage One-Offs & Prototypes, Car Culture
  • Taimoor reports breaking car news and tech explainers, with a soft spot for Honda Civic culture, JDM legends, and the Gulf supercar scene.
  • He splits his time between launches, quick-turn analysis, and stories that show how owners actually live with their cars.
  • His daily drive is a 2015 Honda Civic "Rebirth," he visits local circuits to watch the action, and believes the best car stories start under the hood and end with the people.

Experience

Taimoor came up through busy newsrooms before cars took over his notebook. A friend's project in 2021 pulled him into automotive writing; his first byline ran at TopSpeed in 2023 and hooked him for good. He chased quick-turn news, model explainers, and stories about the people behind the builds, with a few pieces going viral along the way. Editing at CarBuzz sharpened his eye for sourcing, tone, and accuracy, and he brought that seat-time perspective to Jalopnik's fast news file in 2025.

Education

Taimoor holds a B.S. in mass communication from the University of Karachi.
