    Audi Rolls Out TT GT4 Concept

  • 2012 BMW 1-Series M car spy shots

    About a year ago, BMW's M Division development chief said a 1-Series M car was off the table, and hopes were consequently deflated. But then, after a spate of spy shots, BMW finally confirmed the car’s existence and released a new teaser video to boot. Earlier today, we brought you news that the car could be packing as much as 445 horsepower, though we remain skeptical it'll get more than the 335 horsepower seen in the upgraded is-series N54 engines. Now, the automaker has released a third teaser video for the car, this time with potential future customers driving and talking about the...

  • 2011 Infiniti G37 Coupe

    I'm a car nerd. I’ll confess, I love digging through stats for nuggets about performance. And I lean hard toward thinking a lot can be made of power-to-weight ratios. I’m always in favor of lighter cars, because low weight allows so many other efficiencies: a smaller engine, which leads to yet more weight loss, and then a lighter suspension, because you have less chassis to support, and that, in turn, means lower unsprung weight.... It all trickles toward a car you can dance around turns, rather than shove and cajole through esses. But here’s the thing: Stats don’t...

  • 2010 BMW Concept 6-Series Coupe

    BMW’s next-generation 6-Series is just around the corner, with an early 2011 reveal looking more and more likely.

Filming of the new movie, Mission Impossible: The Ghost Protocol, is currently taking place at locations in Dubai and in the UK. It’s...
