  • 2014 Cadillac CTS Vsport

    A 2014 Cadillac CTS Vsport has been clocked running the 13 odd miles of Germany’s Nürburgring-Nordschleife, one of the most grueling race tracks in the world, in an incredible time of 8:14.10. That might not sound fast when you consider General Motors’ own Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 can do it in just under 7:20, but it does when you take a look at what some of the CTS’ competition can muster at the ‘Ring. For starters, the CTS Vsport’s time is almost six seconds faster than the first-generation CTS-V, which was equipped with a V-8. The car’s time is also...

  • Gordon Murray Design T25 Minicar

    It’s been quite some time since we last heard about the newest car from Gordon Murray, designer of the McLaren F1, but we now have news that the car is slated for a market launch in 2016.

That city car is the T25, or T27 in electric guise. For those unfamiliar with the project, it is basically a design for a new...
