Well, I've just admitted I have a problem, but now I think there's no coming back because I have a new lust object poised...

Lexus has presented its all-new 2015 NX at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show, and that means we have all the specs for the compact crossover, including those of the turbocharged model, Lexus’s first force-fed car. The 2015 NX launches with two powertrain options here in the U.S., one of them the...

It would be an amazing experience to run a Pirelli World Challenge car at Long Beach. Heck, we'd be down to run a street car around Long Beach (and your author was fortunate enough to do that, once before). Still, a race car on a city circuit is a wild adventure packed into cozy confines. DON'T...

While the world probably isn't quite done lusting after the hardtop Pagani Huayra supercar, there is reportedly a roadster version in the works that will undoubtedly add even more drama to this superlative automobile. While previous reports suggested the Huayra roadster would arrive sometime in...

Pairing a unique body and chassis with a turbocharged 3.7-liter flat six-cylinder engine, the Lykan Hypersport is an unusual specimen in the world of boutique supercars. Here, we can see and hear the Hypersport as it starts, revs, and drives around during its appearance at last week's 2014 Top...

The fourth instalment of the Transformers movie franchise, Transformers: Age Of Extinction, is now just a couple of months away from its cinematic debut, but we’re still learning of new cars that are set to appear onscreen. The latest to be confirmed is the 2015 Chevrolet Trax, the Bowtie...

Honda used the recent 2014 Beijing Auto Show to debut two new sedan concepts that preview future production models for the Chinese market. One is closely related to the recently revealed 2015 Acura TLX, while the other is targeted at the subcompact sedan market comprised of models such as the...

The 2014 Aston Martin Rapide S is possibly the best four-door in the world. It doesn't quite top out the charts in many individual specs, but, as is so often the case with sports cars, the whole is greater than the sum of its 0-60 mph times and horsepower figures. In fact, if you're the type of...

Audio firm...

The Dodge Challenger is one of our favorite muscle cars, and even though it hasn’t seen any major changes over the past few years, it’s still an unqualified blast to drive—at least in V-8 trim. This year, it’s giving us some new reasons to burn rubber all over again. ALSO...

The fantastic new Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan adds a two-door companion this year—there’s no more CL-Class coupe, instead there’s the beautiful new S-Class Coupe. It was unveiled earlier this year in Geneva, but at the New York Auto Show it made its debut decked out in S63 AMG...

The most entertaining car on the road may have three wheels instead of four. At least, that's the opinion espoused by Motor Authority contributor Jeff Glucker in his review of the Morgan 3 Wheeler for Hooniverse. It may look like a bathtub on wheels, but this elemental vehicle offers a unique...

So, you thought cooled cupholders, touchscreens, and high-speed connectivity were the very latest in SUV technology?
