Ford is debuting the 2013 Boss 302 at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show, and both Boss 302 and Boss 302 Laguna Seca Editions return for 2013.

We recently reported that the next-generation Ford Mustang won’t be bowing in until the 2014 model year, which means the current generation, and its aging platform, will have to soldier on for at least another year. However, as we saw in recent spy shots, a facelifted version is due in the...

In preparation for the 2011 Wales Rally, Ken Block and navigator Alex Gelsomino shake down the Ford Fiesta RC WRC on gravel roads in the Welsh countryside.

Would you believe that we've been doing this series for more than half a year, yet no Fords have been chosen as the weekly Guilty Pleasure? Sure, we've had a couple of Mercurys, but Henry's name has gone on so many terrible-yet-compelling machines that you know some of your brain's more rebellious...

Ford has surprised many by choosing to keep its seven-seat Flex crossover chugging along into the 2013 model year despite the Explorer SUV also being able to carry seven but undercutting the Flex in price, albeit very slightly. Nevertheless, a raft of updates for the 2013 Ford Flex should keep...

The biggest revamp to the Ford Mustang since the introduction of the current-generation car back in 2005 is planned for the 2014 model year, which incidentally coincides with the iconic muscle car’s 50th anniversary. A slightly facelifted version is due in the interim, however, and is...

In response to a spate of harsh reviews criticizing the complexity of the Blue Oval’s latest MyFord Touch interface system, Ford has announced today that it will be launching a new and improved version claimed to offer simpler graphics and easier to use functions. The new version will debut...

It generated buzz, controversy and even threats on a Shelby forum. By early Saturday afternoon, it generated $230,000 at auction. We're referring to the 1968 Shelby Cobra Mustang GT500-KR we posted about a few days earlier. Curiosity prompted a six-hour road trip to the Indianapolis suburb of...

ROUSH's new Stage 3 Premier Edition Mustang blends just enough show with just enough go to appeal to a wide range of pony car fans.

If you had asked us to name which Hollywood celebrity had a custom-built 1966 Mustang convertible prepped with ex-NASCAR gear and a variety of other track-worthy upgrades in 2006, we have to admit, Charlie Sheen wouldn't be anywhere near the top of our list--but that's precisely where this car...

The 2012 Ford Focus ST will make its debut at the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show alongside a host of other new cars.

Ford was an early adopter of promoting its products through video games and driving simulators, and it believes this strategy has boosted brand awareness and brand consideration.

It's finally here, although Ford still hasn't quite said when it will go on sale in the U.S. Right now, all we know is "next year." But the 2012 Ford Focus ST, to be sold not only in the U.S. but 40 other countries too, looks like it will be worth the wait. If you're a regular MotorAuthority...

Sorry, folks. If you thought the production Fiesta ST would be unveiled in Los Angeles following its Frankfurt Auto Show concept debut, you were wrong. Instead, we get another look at the concept--with two bonus doors. Aside from the 5-door layout of the new concept, it's almost identical to the...

There are hordes of hotted-up, modified, and tweaked cars at the 2011 SEMA show, but one car in particular harks back to a purer, simpler time. Despite its age, it packs no less punch: it's the original prototype chassis for the Shelby Cobra, built in 1962. Wearing chassis code CSX0001, this is the...

Next year Ford will launch a completely revised Fusion sedan in the U.S., a car that will be sold in Europe as the Mondeo as part of the Blue Oval’s latest global design effort. Yesterday we brought you spy shots of a prototype for the new car testing in the U.S., and now here’s a video...

The B-Spec field continues to flesh out, now with live images of Ford's entry into the compact racing series. We have live images of the car from the 2011 SEMA show, just weeks after it finished its first official group test with other B-Spec racers. Those other B-Spec racers include the Honda Fit...

The 2012 Team Hot Wheels Ford Fiestas look like the cars we had as kids, but they're life-sized and ready for some track action thanks to a host of Ford Racing accessories. Specifically, a Ford Racing suspension and exhaust give the 2012 Fiesta some growl and prowl, while the 18-inch Motegi Racing...

Ford’s new global design strategy so far appears to be working for the automaker, with the largely European designed and engineered Fiesta and Focus compacts doing particularly well around the globe, including in the U.S. where such cars have proven to be a hard sell in the past. The next...
