  • First US-spec Lamborghini Centenario delivered to customer in California

    A very happy customer took delivery of a rare beast in California. Lamborghini Newport Beach played host to the first U.S-spec Centenario, which has just arrived on our shores. The Italian automaker plans to build just 40 examples in total, with the build-out distributed between 20 coupes and 20 roadsters. Numero uno for the USA is shown here. It is finished a naked carbon-fiber body that's accented with blue bits of trim, and the result is rather stunning. We think it looks quite a bit better with the blue trim than the yellow as shown at the Geneva motor show last year. ALSO SEE: Aston...

  • HGK BMW M2 features LS V-8 power
    This LS-powered BMW 2-Series is a sideways hooligan

    HGK Motorsport is a Latvian race shop that is churning out some seriously powerful machines, and its focus is on a handful of BMW platforms. The crew over there has a soft spot for the E36, E46, and E92 M3s. Now, though, HGK has a new jumble of Bavaria's finest alphanumerics in its stable: the F22...

  • 2017 Honda Civic Si Coupe
    2017 Honda Civic Si arrives with $24,775 price tag

    Honda has been busy filling out the 10th-generation Civic's portfolio with a sedan, coupe, and the return of the hatchback. While the commonplace variants carry out their sales duty, Honda will spice things up with the introduction of a new Type R and the return of the familiar Si. We now know how...

  • Teaser for BMW 8-Series-previewing concept debuting at 2017 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este
    BMW to preview new 8-Series with Villa d’Este concept

    Tired of watching Mercedes-Benz launch hit after hit in the high-end segment for two-door cars, BMW is finally ready to join the fray with its own offering—something that’s long overdue. And no, the slow-selling i8 doesn't count. The new offering will be an 8-Series which BMW will...

  • 2018 BMW 2-Series
    2018 BMW 2-Series preview

    The 2-Series is one of our favorite cars in the BMW lineup. In fact, the high-performance M2 variant was voted Motor Authority’s Best Car to Buy 2017. It’s mostly because the car reminds us of BMWs of old, where rear-wheel drive, inline-6s and manual transmissions ruled. Yes, the...

  • 2017 BMW 6-Series
    BMW drops 6-Series coupe

    BMW has quietly dropped the coupe body style from its 6-Series range for 2018. It means there are now just the 6-Series Convertible and 6-Series Gran Coupe options. The M6 coupe has also disappeared along with the regular model. A BMW spokesperson confirmed to Road & Track that the 6-Series...

  • 2018 BMW Alpina B4 S

    Alpina’s B4 has been updated along with the BMW 4-Series on which it is based. In updated the form the car is known as the B4 S, and its 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged inline-6 now beats out an M4-rivaling 434 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque. That’s up from 410 hp and 442 lb-ft previously. With the extra oomph, Alpina estimates the B4 S will sprint to 60 mph in just 3.9 seconds and keep accelerating until a top speed of 190 mph is reached. Key modifications made to the powertrain were improved turbochargers and cooling systems. The latter includes a new piston crown cooling...

  • 2014 Kia Forte Koup
    Kia is killing off the Forte Koup

    The Kia Forte Koup has been sent to the automotive guillotine as consumer demand for small cars continues to dwindle in favor of larger crossovers and SUVs. It hasn't helped that the 10th-generation Honda Civic coupe has come out swinging this time around either. Kia confirmed to CarsDirect the...

  • 2017 Lotus Exige Cup 380
    2017 Lotus Exige Cup 380 is all about the aero

    We only get the Lotus Evora in the United States, at least as far as road cars are concerned. But overseas, buyers still have new versions of the lighter, more affordable Elise and Exige models they can opt for. The latest model to come out of Lotus’ headquarters in Hethel is a harder-edged...

  • 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon
    How fast is the Dodge Demon on pump gas, in Eco mode?

    We all know the lofty claims. The 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is the fastest production car in the quarter mile with a time of 9.65 seconds and in the 0-60 mph sprint at just 2.3 seconds. However, those numbers require 100+ octane racing fuel and the optional Direct Connection engine...

  • 2018 BMW M4 CS
    Only 3,000 M4s to receive CS treatment

    BMW unveiled the first of a new series of CS models last week at the 2017 Shanghai auto show. The first is the M4 CS which CarBuzz has learned will be built in a limited run of just 3,000 cars for worldwide sale. It’s not clear, still, how many will end up in the United States. The M4 CS...

  • 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon
    The fat Dodge Demon brakes harder than a Viper ACR

    Haters love to bash the Hellcats, and already the Demon, for only going fast in a straight line. They pounce on the fact that these Mopar muscle cars weigh over two tons. While that's true, weight is only one piece of the equation. Despite being somewhat "fat," the Demon is good at more than just...

  • 2018 BMW M4 CS

    When BMW in January announced its round of mid-cycle updates for the M4, many, including us, were disappointed to learn there were no real changes apart from some tweaks to the lights and new colors. That’s because BMW was saving the M4’s more substantial updates for a new model reviving the “CS” tag. BMW took the wraps off its new M4 CS on Wednesday at the 2017 Shanghai auto show. The car is a limited-edition model in the same vein as the 2016 M4 GTS and so far BMW is yet to confirm how many are heading to the United States. We do know it will be offered in the...

    2018 Jaguar F-Type preview

  • Hyundai Vision G (HCD-16) concept
    Genesis coupe to skip V-8 in favor of electrified powertrain

    One of the six cars Genesis plans to have in its lineup by the end of 2020 is a large, luxurious coupe built more for grand touring than carving up race tracks. Unfortunately, a previous plan to fit the car with a V-8 looks to have been axed with Genesis instead favoring an electrified powertrain...

  • 2017 Nissan 370Z
    The future of the 370Z isn't much of a priority for Nissan

    It seems the future of the Nissan Z may be stuck in limbo following the most recent round of updates for the 2018 model year, which also introduces a Heritage Edition. Speaking to AutoGuide at the 2017 New York auto show, Christian Meunier, senior vice president of Nissan Sales, Marketing, and...

  • 2018 Jaguar F-Type, 2017 New York auto show
    2018 Jaguar F-Type pricing drops to $60,895 with addition of 4-cylinder option

  • 2017 Honda Civic Si Coupe, 2017 New York auto show
    2017 Honda Civic Si and Civic Si Coupe revealed with 205 horsepower

    The Civic Type R may be the top dog in Honda’s 10th-generation Civic range, but the performance on offer from the latest Civic Si is certainly nothing to sneeze at. Honda has revealed its latest Civic Si and Civic Si Coupe at the 2017 New York auto show, and we can finally confirm some of the...

  • Dodge Demon Crate

    Dodge finally finished with the teasers and revealed the 2018 Challenger SRT Demon to much fan fare. Now that it's out there, it's time to take a closer look at some of the options, and one of the more interesting box to tick on the order sheet is for the Demon Crate. As we saw in video teaser number 4, which was titled "Crate," every Demon buyer will have the option to purchase a "Demon Crate" full of tools. And these aren't from Harbor Freight. No sir, these are high quality pieces from Snap-On. The tools will include: a hydraulic floor jack with carrying bag a cordless impact wrench with...

  • 2018 Audi S4/S5 First Drive
    2018 Audi S4/S5 video review: making our own music at Coachella

    We have a tough time nailing down what “performance” means anymore. Automakers work really hard telling us that every car has sporting potential—right down to a minivan. We’re easily not convinced. We know “sssspeed” when we see it, and Audi’s twins here...

  • Nissan GT-R Police Pursuit
    You can't run from the Nissan GT-R Police Pursuit

    Seeing the red and blue lights in your rearview mirror can cause a bit of mild terror. Were you speeding? Did you signal when you changed lanes? What did you do wrong? Now, if you're an actual serial bad person, maybe there's a serious reason for a cop to be on your tail. If that's the case...

    Honda lets 2017 Civic Si torque figure slip

    We weren’t supposed to know how much torque the 2017 Honda Civic Si will be making when it arrives later this year, but the brand accidentally revealed it early. Forum members at CivicX received a peculiar email from Honda itself stating the 2017 Civic Si would be arriving with 192 pound-feet...

  • 2018 Lexus LC 500h fitted with TRD exterior parts
    TRD trots out upgrades for Lexus LC

    The Lexus LC is more luxury cruiser than sports car, but that hasn’t stopped TRD from developing performance upgrades for the car. TRD is one of a handful of official motorsport departments at Toyota. The others are Gazoo Racing and TMG. For the LC, TRD has rolled out several exterior mods...

  • Chevrolet Camaro GT4.R
    Camaro GT4.R combines SS and ZL1 1LE elements into turnkey racer

    Chevrolet's latest race car is about to hit the track. It's the Camaro GT4.R and it's a combination of a couple of our favorite Camaros, with some track prep by the Pratt & Miller race shop. The GT4.R starts out with the body from the newly announced ZL1 1LE, and all of the dive planes and big...
