After a day of blasting through otherworldly Saguaro cactus forests of Southern Arizona, much of it on dusty, unimproved gravel backroads—on the way to hot-lap time at the track—we can't exactly say that we put the new turbocharged 2014 Subaru Forester 2.0XT through the kinds of...

A far cry from the 2008 launch pricing of just $69,850, the 2014 Nissan GT-R's base price of $99,590 significantly revises its price-performance ratio that made it such a stunning offering five years ago. At the same time, the latest prices are only about $3,000 higher than last year's, and the...

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray may be the most eagerly-anticipated American performance car since the relaunch of the Dodge Viper. Jay Leno recently traveled to Brown’s Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona to meet with GM design head Ed Welburn and see this milestone Corvette up close...

Jeep's refreshed Grand Cherokee isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it's still one impressive vehicle for the money. To our eyes, they could have left well enough alone with the design and just done the equipment updates, but the bottom line is there's a new SRT model, and while it ditches the "8"...

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray turned out to be the star of last week’s 2013 Detroit Auto Show, with almost all that saw it agreeing the design team at General Motors did a great job. Now that the new Corvette’s auto show debut is over, fans all across the country, including many...

Say what you may about plug-in electric cars, the 2014 Cadillac ELR unveiled at last week's Detroit Auto Show is a stunning piece of design.

We're not immune to the err…charms…of Kate Upton, but at the same time, we can't really figure out how she became famous. Regardless, here she is tricking some guys in football jerseys into washing a new Mercedes-Benz CLA Class. Presumably it's hers. The video is a new Super Bowl ad...

Lexus finally unveiled the new 2014 IS at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and it wasn't kidding when it said its styling was going to get aggressive. The new IS sports Lexus' new design language with the boldest interpretation of the brand's new "spindle grille" that we've seen yet. The headlights...

Four body styles, plus some wicked AMG love, mean the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E Class is freshly revamped and ready to take on the luxury sedan competition. The E Class Sedan and Wagon both made their way onto the web before the holidays, while the Coupe and Cabriolet saw their debuts at the 2013...

A new name, a fresh new look, and hopes to take on--and beat--the best of the luxury car segment: The 2014 Infiniti Q50 aims high. From our initial vantage point, it hits the mark, too. The exterior, while speaking the language of the mid-size luxury sedan fluently, nevertheless manages to look...

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray with VIN ending in #0001 has sold at auction for an incredible $1.1 million, more than 20 times the expected cost of the latest ‘Vette. Of course, getting to own the very first example to be sold to the public has its premium, and all proceeds from the...

The 2014 Maserati Quattroporte made its auto show debut in Detroit this week, giving us the opportunity to finally see the sixth generation of the Italian flagship in person. Power for this Italian business saloon is provided by either a twin-turbocharged V-6 rated at 410 horsepower and 376...

The baby Mercedes-Benz CLS four-door coupe is finally here, and its name is CLA. This compact coupe-like sedan kicks off the first of three versions of the Mercedes A Class-based family cars arriving here in America over the next few years. The CLA also marks the return of a front-wheel drive...

Rolls-Royce has announced it's bringing a new model to the 2013 Geneva Motor Show taking place in early March. The new model will be called the Rolls-Royce Wraith, a name we haven't seen since the Silver Wraith ended production in 1959. While no other details about the Wraith have been revealed...

It's no surprise, but the arrival of the 2014 Ford Mustang configuration tool confirms it: there will be no 2014 Mustang Boss 302. If you missed your chance, well, tough.

BMW is preparing to replace the 3-Series Coupe with a new 4-Series, and it brought a thinly veiled version of the new two-door to the 2013 Detroit Auto Show in the form of a 4-Series Coupe Concept. This concept features both the latest interpretation of BMW's design language, but also the latest...

Sixty years ago today, the Chevrolet Corvette made its debut appearance at GM’s Motorama exhibit in New York City. New car introductions were a big deal then, and anxious spectators lined Park Avenue to get a look at Chevy’s futuristic roadster. Production wasn’t even planned when...

The first of Mercedes-Benz’s new generation of compact cars to reach the U.S., the 2014 CLA Class four-door coupe, made its debut this week at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show ahead of its sales launch later this year where it will wear a $30k pricetag. A new video plus our own live photos of the...

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray was just unveiled at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and unless you've been hiding under a very large rock, you already know what it looks like and every other detail, too. Now, it seems the coupe's convertible alternative has leaked about a year ahead of its...

The 2014 Acura MDX, seen here in live images from this week’s Detroit Auto Show, is officially listed as a “prototype.” As with most new product introductions from Honda and Acura in recent years, we suspect the production version will look a lot like the vehicle pictured here...
