Dynamically designed and arrestingly attractive, the 2012 Range Rover Evoque has won much praise on the auto show circuit and though the crossover is already headed to production, so far only the three-door ‘Coupe’ version has been officially revealed. That is until now. The new 2012...

The 2012 Buick Regal GS is here, unveiled in Miami ahead of a likely showing at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show. Just as expected, it's essentially unchanged from its concept form, powered by a 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder, and it gets a handful of other upgrades that should make it the driver's...

The Kia Forte Koup might not be your go-to front-drive two-door for performance modification, but maybe that ought to change. Andy Lally, Trevor Hopwood, and a handful of other great drivers take the wheel of a pair of modified Koups for Continental Tire competition as part of the Grand Am series...

Toyota has done lost its mind. This stretched, "tricked out, suped up" minivan is the Swagger Wagon Supreme. As our social media hero Joel Feder so eloquently put it, "...speechless." There's no other way to describe what's going on here. Created in cooperation with B.A.D. Company, the Swagger...

Rhys Millen Racing and Hyundai have developed deep ties over the past several years, from Pikes Peak runs to custom models of most of the lineup.

We've all seen the tire-shredding, physics-defying antics of Ken Block's much-hyped third episode in the Gymkhana series, and we've seen the car before, too, but these live shots give us a little better appreciation of what the car looks like in the flesh--and an idea of what gives it that...

Here we have a pair of cars from the SEMA Scion tC Tuner Challenge, spanning the gap from full-race to near-steampunk.
