The annual Motor Authority Best Car To Buy award is a knock-down, drag-out affair among each year's new luxury and performance vehicles. It starts with the roster of what's new, redesigned, or significantly updated and then we start to cull the herd. Cars fall by the wayside for a number of...

It's been called the Blue Devil in the past, but we just call it the King of America now. Chevrolet brought back the Corvette ZR1 for 2019, the third time it's offered the nameplate, and once again the car has destroyed much of the competition. The latest Chevrolet Corvette ZR1's heart is a...

The rush of electric cars is nearly upon us, but that hasn't stopped a flood of great drivers' cars from launching in 2018. In an era when eyes, and headlines, tend to focus more on kilowatt hours and driving range, it's reassuring to see manufacturers still focused on steering feel, manual...
