Toyota and Subaru confirmed as far back as April of last year that the two companies would collaborate on the development of a new affordable sports car and at the Tokyo Motor Show of that same year we saw the first tangible evidence of the partnership with the unveiling of the Toyota FT-86...

Bentley just threw the doors open on the new second-generation 2011 Continental GT, and now we have a video to go along with the photos and fact sheets. While it's light on information, the passion and attention to detail that goes into every Bentley is on full display. And yes, you do get to see...

The Internets are romping and stomping with the "news" that the 2011 Chrysler 300C platform may spawn a sub-Quattroporte Maserati model, but we're just looking at the details, as we reported that both Lancia and Maserati would get a 300C-based car last October and touched the subject again in May...

You've already seen the 2011 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG, and you've already combed through the full spec sheets, but now you've got another opportunity to ogle the super sedan thanks to a fresh dump of photos straight from Mercedes--this time focusing on the powertrain, with cutaway diagrams of the...

Ben Collin's cash grab for a book deal despite his contractual confidentiality agreement has left Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson at a loss for words. As he stumbles his way through his feelings on the matter in this interview, we get perhaps the best take yet on what exactly is going on behind the...

The rotary engine is a love-it or hate-it piece of engineering. Marvelously simple and compact yet viciously inefficient, variants of the spinning triangle have seen use in Mazda's cars for over 40 years. But that robust classic tech won't do the job anymore. The next Mazda rotary will have to be a...

You've just put a new set of $38,000 tires on your Bugatti Veyron after getting the $21,000 service and replacing the $12,000 set of wheels. You've had her hand washed by a pro, but you want that little something special to finish the job and make the paint look as much like a black hole as your...

Green, green, green. That's all we hear these days. How to get green, go green, not do things that aren't green. It's enough to make a person a bit green in the face. But Ferrari's shade of green at the upcoming 2010 Paris auto show may be the sort that indicates envy, as a report out today has the...

As the rest of the world slowly amps up for the 2010 Paris auto show, the hyperluxurious designers in Crewe have been hard at work preparing the launch of the 2011 Bentley Continental GT, unveiled today. The Web reveal offers us the full details on the car's specs as well as high-res photos, but...

Everyone loves to bash a hypocrite. Outspoken finger-pointers like Newt Gingrich, John Edwards, and any number of Baptist ministers have been caught with their pants down (literally), and we've raked them over the coals for not practicing what they preach. The theft of Jesse Jackson's Cadillac...

The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport has once again put the Volkswagen Group's French marque back at the top of the fastest production car charts with its recent 268-mph record, but within days Shelby Supercars (SSC) announced it would be once again gunning to top Bugatti. We already know that SSC's new...

Down in the southern part of South Korea--a country known for rugged persistence in the face of grave danger--there's a Guinness Record holder at work, one who just wants to drive. This past May, Cha-Sa-soon of Wanju, South Korea, got her wish, and got her driver's license. After 960 tries. The New...

Fire may be the biggest worry of most racing drivers, but high-speed accidents are a lot more common. This accident is a testament to the safety of modern race car and track design. Driving down the fast, slightly curved back straight at Mosport during this weekend's American Le Mans Series race...

Looking an awful lot like the Tesla Model S crossed with Infiniti's Essence Concept, the Mazda Shinari might not be entirely unique, but it's certainly attractive. Today, Mazda released the full official details on the 'Kodo' design thesis to be unveiled at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, along with a...

Ford Racing and Roush have already revealed supercharger kits for the new 2011 5.0-liter Mustang V-8, and earlier this week we saw the Australians' take on the theme: the Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) supercharged Falcon. Now the talk is that the FPV Falcon's milder engines may be headed back to...

The hatchback envy color today is orange. GM's Australian arm Holden has just unveiled its very sleek new Cruze hatch. No, it won't be coming to the U.S. Yes, it's wearing the bowtie badges, but that's because it was released by Chevrolet Europe, where it will no doubt see significant sales. Aside...

Remember when saw Kellan Lutz rocking his Infiniti G35? We appreciated that. It was refreshing, invigorating -- an automotive palate-cleanser to help wash the taste of Land Rovers and G-Wagens out of our mouths. Then, we saw him in what appeared to be an Audi A5, and our hearts sank, because Audi...

The Blue Oval will be adding a new model to its F-150 pickup truck line, with the unveiling today of the all-new 2011 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor SuperCrew. The purpose-built off-road version of the popular F-150 workhorse has proven very popular, and it’s only set to get better thanks to...

Last December, Hyundai Motor America CEO John Krafcik confirmed that a new Veloster Concept-based coupe would be joining the lineup in 2011 as a 2012 model and serve as the replacement for the previous Tiburon. Today, we have new spy shots of a prototype undergoing further testing ahead of its...

Whether it's the rather bland looks or the underwhelming stats, the 2011 Lexus CT 200h hasn't primed us for our first shot behind its wheel. Today's announcement of four driving modes for the car doesn't do much to change that, though we're interested to see just how much sport can be added to the...
