  • Koenigsegg Agera S Hundra

    Swedish supercar manufacturer Koenigsegg is heading to next week’s 2013 Geneva Motor Show with a brand new supercar in tow. But the new car isn’t just another run-of-the-mill Koenigsegg, if there is such a thing, but the company’s 100th car ever built. A hundred cars may not seem like a lot, especially when you consider that Koenigsegg has been around since 1994, but the number is testament to the bespoke nature of each of the rolling works of art that emerge from the halls of Koenigsegg's plant in Ängelholm, Sweden. The new car has been duly titled the Hundra, which is...

    Ride Along With Leh Keen In The Brumos Porsche 911 GT3 Cup: Video

    The Circuit Gilles Villeneueve in Montreal, Canada, might not have the same sort of gearhead-household name as Laguna Seca or Road America, but it's no less impressive in its own right. Especially when it's being tackled by Leh Keen at the wheel of a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car. Ride along for more...

    Spyker Drops New Teaser For B6 Concept: Geneva Motor Show

  • Bertone Jet 2 and Bertone Jet 2+2 concept cars

    At next week’s 2013 Geneva Motor Show, Bertone will show off its striking Jet 2+2 concept car, which was commissioned by a car collector in the UK and marks 60 years of collaboration between the Italian design house and British automaker Aston Martin. The new Jet 2+2 concept is essentially a shooting brake based on the latest Aston Martin Rapide, but it isn’t the first time that Bertone has built such a car. Back at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show, Bertone presented the first Jet 2 concept, which was based on the first-generation Aston Martin Vanquish and also featured a shooting brake...

  • 2013 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6x6

    Just in case the regular G63 AMG from Mercedes-Benz wasn’t extreme enough, the company will soon be offering this six-wheeled version. The vehicle is built alongside the regular G-Class range at Magna Steyr's operations in Graz, Austria, and was originally developed for the Australian military back in 2011. It turns out there was enough interest in the vehicle to warrant the development of a civilian version. The head of development for the Mercedes-Benz G-Class line, Axel Harries, said pricing for the vehicle hasn’t been announced but interested buyers can expect to pay no more...

    2014 Volvo S60 Up Close, Inside & Out: Gallery

    Though it might not immediately pop to mind the way some German and even American sport sedans do when you're thinking of a fast, luxurious, relatively affordable ride, the Volvo S60 has long been one of our favorites. It's not the fastest, but it's one of the best all-arounders on the market. For...

    NASCAR Subway Fresh Fit 500 Preview

    After last weekend’s first full-length event with the Generation 6 Sprint Cup cars, the series heads west to the 1.0 mile tri-oval of Phoenix International Raceway. The Arizona track lacks both the length and the banking of Daytona, meaning speeds will be a bit more moderate for the 500...

    Sonus faber sound system for the Pagani Huayra debuts in Geneva

    A few weeks back, Pagani began to tease something new for its Huayra supercar.

If...

  • The 2013 Alpina B3 - image: Alpina

    Alpina has a history of making BMW models go faster, with perhaps a bit more focus on luxury and a bit less emphasis on motorsports than BMW’s M Division. Though the only current Alpina model sold on these shores is the BMW 7-Series-based B7, the brand builds and sells a variety of models in other markets. One of these models is the 3-Series-based B3, which has traditionally served up more performance and luxury than BMW offers from its mainstay model (M3 variants excluded). In previous form, based on the E90 platform, the Alpina B3 delivered 395 horsepower from BMW’s N55...
