  • Record gathering of 60 Ferrari F40s attend 2012 Silverstone Classic

    It’s hard to believe that the Ferrari F40 supercar is now 25 years old, and celebrating the occasion was a record gathering of the supercars at the Silverstone race track in the UK. Just as they did for the F40’s 20th birthday back in 2007, F40 owners from all over the globe descended upon the British circuit, with their cars in tow, to attend this past weekend’s Silverstone Classic. The last time a total of 40 F40s were present but this year the Ferrari Owners’ Club of Great Britain has smashed that record by organizing a fleet of 60 cars. First introduced in 1987 to...

    Lexus’ LFA supercar has been on the market for about a year and a half now, and aside from unusual paint and the performance-enhancing Nürburgring package, there isn’t much new to talk about. That’s not a complaint, since there really isn’t much about the V-10 powered...

  • Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David with a 1952 VW Beetle, via Twitter

    Earlier this month, we told you about the upcoming premier of comedian and car-guy Jerry Seinfeld’s latest endeavor, a web-only series called Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. Like the television classic Seinfeld, his new series takes the concept of a show about nothing to new extremes. The opening episode stars Seinfeld co-creator Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld and a 1952 Volkswagen split-window Bug. The Azure Blue, 25-horsepower Volkswagen is by far the most interesting thing in the 13 minute video, which also covers why tea was at the root of David’s divorce, how pancakes are best...

  • 2013 Dodge SRT Viper GTS

    It’s been close to three months since the new 2013 SRT Viper was unveiled at the 2012 New York Auto Show, and still it seems that the car is nowhere closer to reaching showrooms. That’s not entirely true as so far we’ve seen the build slot for the Viper bearing VIN #1 sell at auction, a pre-production version show up on Jay Leno’s Garage, and development of the car going ahead as planned. SRT is adamant that the car will go on sale this fall, but finding one up for sale at a dealer near you may prove difficult. Prior to its New York reveal, we said the 2013 SRT Viper...
