With Tesla last week revealing a second-generation Roadster capable of 0-60 mph acceleration in 1.9 seconds and a top speed of 250 mph, the major sports car marques have been well and truly put on notice. That’s because while Tesla may miss deadlines and is currently in its own...

Though a Ford GT40 replica isn't exactly the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat's grandfather, the stately elder and the rorty modern muscle machine recently met.

Spoiler alert: It's not the one you're hoping they'd make. What we have instead is the Toyota 86 860 Special Edition, which is a limited-run package that focuses on some style upgrades and interior amenities. This does not feature any sort of added power, perhaps by way of that turbocharger or...

Remember when fun-to-drive cars were rear-wheel drive? When neutral handling trumped tricked-out suspensions with variable-ratio everything?

Modified Porsches really don't get much cooler than a factory driver's 911 customized for rally use. This white 1985 911 belongs to Patrick Long, who is sort of the guru of all things Porsche these days. But Long's expertise isn't limited to pavement, as this highly-modified coupe illustrates. ALSO...

Jaguar said when it unveiled its new F-Type SVR that the coupe could hit 200 mph, but Fast and Furious actress Michelle Rodriguez proved them wrong.

One of the cool bits about the McLaren F1, besides its tremendous performance capability, is the fact that the driver sits in the center of the car.

To Corvette fans, certain groupings of letters and numbers have a lot of meaning. For late-model cars, Z06, ZR1, and Z51 are important alphanumerics, and for fans of vintage 'Vettes, ZL1, L71, and L88 stir their passions. Later this week, Corvette fans will be able to bid on what may be the...

The current Boxster was all-new for the 2013 model year so in Porsche tradition we should see the car receive a mid-cycle facelift for the 2017 model year. Today we have new spy shots of a prototype for the facelifted car plus a video from YouTube user BridgeToGantry. The Boxster is one of our...

When Mazda announced its all-new fourth-generation MX-5 Miata, the first question was not whether it would race the little sports car, but where it would race it.
