Lexus' LF-CC Coupe Concept, shown at the 2012 Paris Auto Show, was a brilliant exercise in design and proportion--but it was clearly concept-only, despite hints that it might presage a production model. This appears to be that production model, the 2015 Lexus RC F. The latest images show the car...

With nimble handling, quick acceleration, and sharp new looks, even the base 991 Porsche 911 is a sports car aficionado's joy. We fully expect the 2014 911 Turbo S to border on mind-blowing. The coupe version of the 2014 911 Turbo S was recently revealed alongside its standard (non-S) Turbo...

One of the most significant models in BMW’s lineup, the M3, is due for renewal, and as a result prototypes for its replacement have been spotted all over Europe and in the U.S. Once again there will be sedan, coupe and convertible variants, but where previous models were all badged M3s, the...

One of the more confusing questions car reviewers get--other than, "why so much bacon?"--is innocent enough, on the surface. "What's the best car?" Hm. Can I get a metric? Some vague parameters or constraints? Are we talking about the most value you can extract from a $20,000 bill--or the most...

McLaren’s Formula One ace Jenson Button took time out from his busy schedule to drive the company’s new P1 supercar at its dynamic debut at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend. Button not only drove the car but raced it up the event’s famous hill climb where he...

Juan Manual Fangio is one of the original legends of F1, and perhaps the greatest. His W196 R 1954 F1 car is nearly as legendary, and now it belongs to a new owner. Fangio's Silver Arrow sold at a Bonhams auction at the Goodwood Festival of Speed today for £19.6 million, or about $29,650,000...

Bentley’s new Continental GT-based race car made its official world debut today at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the big bruiser also made a dramatic run up the event’s famous hill climb. The new race car follows on from an original concept version unveiled at the 2012...

Military intelligence and jumbo shrimp are the classic oxymorons that keep garden-variety morons like me awake at night. Toss in a third mindbender--"sporty SUV"--and the WTF factor does a damn fine job of counteracting jet lag. We drove headlong into all three in the course of our first drive of...

Land Rover’s LR4 (a Discovery to our non-U.S. readers) is set to receive a raft of updates that will bring the go-just-about-anywhere SUV into line with the latest additions from the British automaker. This means efficiency gains across the range, LED-enhanced headlights and a much more...

It's rare that concept cars are very concept-y at all anymore. BMW is one of the worst offenders, showing what are basically production cars with funky wheels and calling them concepts. But sometimes we don't care. BMW's Concept Active Tourer Outdoor is ostensibly aimed at outdoorsy types. We don't...

The promised special concept based on the Jaguar F-Type is called Project 7. It will debut at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed--and it's not the F-Type coupe. Reduced to a single-seater with a D-Type-style fairing and carbon fiber aerodynamic work the Project 7 sprints to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds...

Acura will launch a mid-size sedan next year that will serve as the replacement for both the TL and TSX lines, and we have the first spy shots of a prototype for it. The new sedan is expected to be labeled the TLX and fill the gap between the ILX and new RLX flagship, with Acura’s reformed...

The new horsepower war is fully upon us. It's no longer just about how much fuel and oxygen you can flow through an engine in a quest for a bigger bottom line, it's about getting the most horsepower from the least amount of fuel possible. The 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray does a remarkably good job...

Subaru’s popular Legacy mid-size sedan is about to be replaced by an all-new model, seen here testing in prototype form for the first time. This particular prototype was spotted testing in Michigan and features many of the fixtures that will appear on the final production model. The new...

Ferrari will have a handful of its latest supercars on show at this week’s 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed, but most of them won’t be your ordinary, run-of-the-mill Ferraris but bespoke versions crafted by the automaker’s various personalization departments. The newest of the...

Volvo is hard at work developing its next-generation XC90 SUV, which the automaker promises to launch at the end of 2014. While there’s still a significant gap until the new SUV’s launch, Volvo is providing numerous details to keep audiences primed. Today, the automaker has revealed...

BMW’s revolutionary i3 ‘Megacity’ vehicle is now less than a year away from launch and in the lead up to its eventual arrival engineers are hard at work finishing off the final prototype evaluation. The latest spy shots show the i3 doing a striptease that leaves little to the...

UPDATE: This vehicle has been revealed as the 2014 BMW 2-Series Active Tourer. Click here for full details. BMW is just months away from revealing its first front-wheel-drive model, which for all intents and purposes is likely to be labeled a 1-Series Gran Turismo. The car will be available in a...

We drove the 2013 Subaru BRZ on the Isle of Man TT course again, and remembered why it pushes out buttons so well.

With BMW having already shown its all-new 2014 4-Series Coupe, engineers have become a little more lax with camouflage gear for the car’s convertible sibling, which is yet to be officially revealed. Here we see several prototypes for the new 2014 BMW 4-Series Convertible, with tops up and...
