A simulated re-enactment of the Lohan's just-wrapped trial: Lindsay Lohan: What? What did that bitch say? Lawyerlady: That "bitch" is your judge, and she just sent you to jail...

To this day BMW has never launched an M8 but the automaker did come close to doing so at one point, though the project was canned at the last minute. Back in 1990 BMW built a one-off prototype version of its then new 8-Series sports coupe and labeled it the M8. The prototype featured a 6.0-liter...

It's no mystery that our aging bodies won't always perform as well as they do/did in their prime. Reflexes won't always be as snappy, eyesight will blur, and hearing will gradually diminish. Good, safe driving depends on constantly alert senses, quick reactions and steady muscle control. While...

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL AMG is out...sort of.

Aston Martin. Just the name can set a gearhead's pulse racing. But there's more to the marque than just its latest and greatest cars like the Rapide, V12 Vantage, and DBS. It has history--serious history. Like the 1966 DB6 going up for auction in Monterey via Mecum. This particular 1966 Aston DB6...

You can have your Dreyfusses and Lohans--for our money, George Michael is the Worst Celebrity Driver Ever. This weekend, Michael hit a building after only recently getting his driver's license back from his last scuff with the law. In 2007, Michael was found under the influence of drugs in his...
