When it comes to custom Mustangs, Roush is considered by many to be second only to the Shelby name. Today the custom house has revealed its new 2011 Roush 5XR Ford Mustang based around the 2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0-liter V-8 engine. Thanks to the edition of a ‘R2300 ROUSHcharger’...

Dodge has just released these first photos of the 2011 Charger sedan. In a full release, Dodge says the 2011 Dodge Charger "will rev up showrooms during the fourth quarter of 2010." Earlier this year, Chrysler began trickling out some images of its revamped 2011 lineup, including the 2011 Jeep...

Audi has announced prices for its new 2011 A8 flagship luxury sedan, which has just hit showrooms and will be followed by the long-wheelbase A8 L variant next month. Pricing for the new 2011 Audi A8 starts at $78,050 (excluding $875 destination and dealer charges). For the money, customers get a...

Mercedes-Benz's last C-Class coupe, the CLC, wasn't a great success, particularly here in the U.S., in part because of its awkward styling and in part--towards the end--because it was actually based on the previous-generation car, with only minor styling tweaks to update its look. Now Mercedes is...

Hyundai almost certainly isn't the first name you think of when you think performance or luxury, but the brand is working hard to change that, most notably with the introduction of the Equus sedan for the U.S. Even its lower-range models are pushing the brand-perception envelope--the new Sonata is...

It's hard to beat American muscle for hauling tail in a straight line, and Mopar's Drag Pak for the Dodge Challenger is among the best out-of-the-box Stock Eliminator/Super Stock configurations you can buy. For 2011, the deal gets even better: Viper V-10 power for just $85,512. Like previous Drag...

We told you that Juliette Lewis had been tapped to perform at the Range Rover Evoque launch party during the 2010 Paris Auto Show. You didn't believe us. "Juliette Lewis?" you asked. "Why not Joseph Gordon-Levitt? He's got a band. Last we heard, Keanu had one, too." But do they possess the power of...

Chevrolet has just announced pricing on the 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible, and it's slated to check in at $30,000 for a V-6 model, including the $850 destination fee. That puts it about $2,000 higher than a base 2011 Ford Mustang Convertible, including destination. Little else has been...

Hyundai has looked to RIDES and 0-60 magazines, and in turn found some inspiration from Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche, to put together a special custom version of its upcoming 2011 Sonata Turbo. The exterior mods on the car are described as "modest and tasteful," with influences from the...

Infiniti appears to quickly be making up for lost time and chasing after BMW, Audi, and others with its new Infiniti Performance Line (IPL). The first IPL product, the 2011 Infiniti Performance Line G Coupe, will go on sale December 10--just a few months after its Pebble Beach debut--the company...

Pictures don't always do a car like the Bentley Continental GT justice. It's the look, feel, and smell of the exclusive materials up close--along with hand craftsmanship--that bring new meaning in person and trigger a sort of lust that you might have thought was only possible for exotic poster...

The Chevrolet Camaro Convertible is going to arrive a little bit earlier than we expected. Chevy showrooms will see their first drop-top Camaros in February—likely just in time to see the buzz build up to summer—and it's a 2011 model. Pricing was also revealed: $30,000, including an...

We admit it: we're wary of celebutantes. Every time we turn around, there's another one on the cover of US Weekly or People or whatever, being hailed as the next It Girl. And for a decade, we have fallen for it: Sophie Monk, Carrie Ann Moss, Neve Campbell, the cast of The Hills: they've all let us...

The 2011 Bentley Continental GT is set to make its world debut at the 2010 Paris Auto Show tomorrow but we already know how much it will cost when it arrives in showrooms in the first quarter of next year.

The new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 made its first racing appearance at a four hour race held over the weekend at the notorious Nurburgring circuit in Germany.

The 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque three-door is heading to this week's 2010 Paris Auto Show, but a stealthy five-door version that had been planned for a debut later this year has instead hit the Web. The five-door Evoque was due to be presented at the 2010 Los Angeles auto show, according to...

I've just threaded through a tightly banked turn called the Half Pipe, on the way toward another area called the Pucker Factor. And I'm behind the wheel of a VOLVO. Truth be told, there's a lot more to Volvo than there used to be: This time, Volvo is looking beyond just those who want style and...

The 2011 Chevrolet Camaro convertible is on schedule to arrive at dealers by March, and it's as eagerly awaited as the revived 2010 Camaro coupe was 18 months ago. If you're impatient, and want to be the first kid on your block with a cool drop-top bowtied muscle car, pull out your checkbook. You...

A Los Angeles publisher has gotten his stolen Mustang back--35 years later. Jack Klunder, president and publisher of the Los Angeles Daily News, had his 1966 Mustang stolen in 1974 while he was at basketball practice in a gym at Rio Hondo Junior College, where he was a student. Klunder's car was...

You know Juliette Lewis, right? Actress? Singer? A 50/50 cocktail of awesomeness and crazitude, served with a splash of bitters and sweat? THAT Juliette Lewis. The one you haven't heard from in a while. Well, she's about to make a very high-profile appearance next Tuesday night -- at a launch party...
