  • Chris Harris driving the 2014 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 507

    The current W204-series C63 AMG is on its way out, set to be replaced by an all-new model based on the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class. In celebration of its greatness, Brit journo Chris Harris has released this tribute video. Oh, and it features the brutal Edition 507 run-out model, which, as you may have guessed, came packing 507 horsepower instead of the standard model’s 457. The new output meant the car could hit 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds, and its top speed was limited at 174 mph instead of the standard 155-mph limit. As Harris explains, this makes it comparable in performance to the...

    Audi S5 Snow Drift Goes Very, Very Wrong: Video

    So you've got a shiny new Audi S5. So you want to hoon it up in the snow. So you like drifting. Cool. Don't do what this guy did. The penalty for failure when dealing with low-mu surfaces is potentially high, especially when carrying enough velocity. Mix in a bus stop, a lamp post, and some...

  • 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG

    It isn’t just the major automakers churning out record sales figures for 2013; today, Mercedes-Benz tuner AMG announced that it sold a record 32,000 vehicles in the past year, up from roughly 24,500 sold in 2012. The gains were brought about by new compact offerings as well as the availability of all-wheel drive on more models. “We are looking back on the company’s strongest year ever,” AMG boss Tobias Moers said in a statement. “This extraordinary growth has exceeded even our own expectations.” Moers is right as AMG as recently as a year ago was...

    Toyota MR2, Prius Combined In TE-Spyder Hybrid Concept

    It's fair to say the Toyota Prius isn't the most exciting of vehicles. In fact, it's pretty much the antithesis of everything gearheads like about cars. It is a method of transport, and little more. Toyota's old MR2 roadster is pretty much the opposite. It's peppy, has its engine and driven wheels...

  • Hennessey HPE1000 Corvette Stingray Upgrade

    Hennessey is offering performance upgrades for the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray that sees the car’s output top out at 1,000 horsepower, more than double that of the stock version. This one, featuring the Texan tuner’s HPE700 twin-turbocharged package, isn’t quite that powerful but no doubt would still get the hairs on the back of your neck standing straight after a few hot laps. That’s because Hennessey’s HPE700 package brings around 700 horsepower to the table. For the Corvette Stingray, Hennessey offers its HPE700 package with either a supercharger or a...
