This week was full of spy shots, teaser images, supercar reveals, even first driving impressions. With all of this came some some pretty awesome photos, and once again we've compiled the best of this week's photos in one place for your viewing pleasure. Hennessey revived the Venom 1000 package...

Calling the new Jaguar F-Type convertible a milestone for the storied automaker is no exaggeration, as it’s the first no-compromise sports car from the brand in decades. It’s clear that Jaguar invested a significant amount of time and effort into its creation, and now that the car is...

It’s hard to imagine, but the Volkswagen Touareg SUV, cousin to the Porsche Cayenne, has been in production for ten years now. While tradition calls for a celebratory gift of tin or aluminum for the tenth anniversary, Volkswagen is marking the occasion with a special Touareg Edition X for its...

Last May we brought you the news that a 1967 Corvette Coupe once owned by astronaut Neil Armstrong had surfaced on eBay, in worn but restorable condition. Essentially intact, the only bit of bad news was that the second owner had added flared fenders to the car during his four-plus decades of...

Handed the crystalline key fob to a 565-horsepower, $280,000 car with the steering wheel on the wrong side, then loosed about the narrow, broken roads around Newport Pagnell--to drive on the wrong side as well--I shook off my jet lag, smiled, and acted like it was nothing. Of course, it was...

In July of this year, one of the greatest designers of all time, the legendary Sergio Pininfarina, son of Pininfarina founder Battista Farina, passed away at age 85. During his lifetime, he penned some of most famed cars ever to see the light of the day, many of which were designed for Ferrari. In...

Common wisdom tells us to never buy the first production year of any automobile, since that’s when all the bugs not found in pre-production testing tend to surface. In the case of a car as anticipated as the Scion FR-S (or Subaru BRZ), sometimes emotion wins out over common sense. As early...

Production at niche sports car manufacturer Artega, based in Delbrück, Germany, has come to an end, with the company stating on its website that the last of its Henrik Fisker-designed GT sports cars rolled off the line on September 30. Artega filed for bankruptcy protection in July of this...

At last week’s 2012 Paris Auto Show Bentley unveiled a race car concept based on its luxury-oriented Continental GT. Simply labeled the Continental GT3, the one-off concept is confirmation of Bentley’s interest in returning to motorsports, which could include a new one-make racing...

Though we’ve seen a convertible version of the Lexus LFA supercar before, Toyota has never officially admitted the car existed, apart from a concept version. That was until now, as Jay Leno was fortunate enough to drive one on the latest episode of his online series Jay Leno’s Garage...

A lot of people make fun of Tanner Foust. Some for his slightly wooden delivery on Top Gear USA, others for his clean-cut goody-two-shoes image. But at the end of the day, a lot of us probably do it out of envy. As he's been documenting for sponsor Rockstar in his Life In The Foust Lane series...

We've known the Thunder from Down Under was making its way to the U.S. for some time now, but today dates for the V8 Supercars series race at Austin's Circuit of the Americas have been officially announced. It's getting real, folks. Clear your calendars for May 17-19, 2013, as that's when the...

If you’re looking for a seriously fast muscle car, the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is one of two outstanding options you have these days (the other, of course, is the 2013 Ford Shelby GT500). From the showroom floor, the ZL1 makes some 580 horsepower at the crank, which is good enough to get...

If you’re shopping for a luxury SUV with legitimate go-just-about-anywhere capabilities, chances are that the Land Rover LR4 is on your short list. Land Rover has just released pricing on its 2013 LR4 models, which see a modest rise in the window sticker in both base and HSE trims. The base...

Making its official public debut in concept form at the Paris Auto Show, McLaren’s P1 supercar was met with near-universal acclaim. While the styling seemed a bit awkward in early teased images, it worked much better when seen in person or in video. We brought you live images of the...

The spies have captured more images of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette (C7) in testing, and it's looking like it's very close to ready--and still very close to the C6 in overall design, though it will be sporting some significant hardware changes. If you're in the market for a 2013 model-year...

After last week’s announcement that Lewis Hamilton was moving to the Mercedes AMG Petronas team to partner with Nico Rosberg, it was clear that Michael Schumacher’s future plans didn’t involve racing F1 cars for Mercedes. Today, Schumacher has made it official, announcing his...

While we’re generally game to drive anything we get the keys to, certain cars give us reason to think twice before pulling out of the driveway. One of these is the original Porsche 911 Turbo, dubbed the Porsche 930 in production trim. While the 930’s 330 horsepower may seem modest by...

Even though it seems like it should be impossible, almost every year the car industry brings forth new and impressive feats of engineering, packaging, and value. Faster, more efficient, more feature-filled, and better-looking--just as it appears the end is in sight (cf. the "horsepower wars"), one...

UPDATE: The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette has been revealed. Click here for all the photos and specs. Due next year as a 2014 model, the next iteration of the Chevrolet Corvette, the C7, won't be a completely revolutionary design, but it will be largely new, and it will almost certainly get a new base...
