We can’t decide where to land on this bug-eyed Audi R8. It’s just too much to take in all at once. But it’s very well done. If converting an R8 to look like a Skoda (the 130 RS rally car is mentioned as inspiration by the designer) can be considered a job well done. We’re...

Cadillac chief Johan de Nysschen has hinted that the ELR might not spawn a second generation but that doesn’t mean General Motors Company’s [NYSE:GM] premium division has completely given up on the car. An updated version is being introduced for the 2016 model year, and has been...

BMW's X6 M is a venomous cane toad of an SUV, one with some obvious warts. Even so, it's made friends and set trends, spawning imitators in the Acura ZDX (extinct: mercy killing) and the upcoming Mercedes GLE Coupe (viability TBD). It's also an honest-to-God, track-capable car. Mmmmm, crossover...
