Supercars

The Hennessey HPE700 is a McLaren MP4-12C on steroids.

Spain’s Tramontana is back with a new model aimed at track day enthusiasts. The car is based on Tramontana’s unique line of V-12 supercars but its “GT” badging signifies it is designed for the track. A Tramontana GT is currently up for sale on JamesEdition (via GT Spirit)...

Now that the first examples of the McLaren P1 have been delivered to their owners, a few videos have cropped up showing what it’s like to be behind the wheel and what the car feels like out on the road. One of the best is from serial supercar spotter Shmee150 who came across a burnt orange...

Supercars are expensive. It's one of those depressing facts of life and means that many of us are unlikely to ever drive one, let alone own the latest piece of exotica. It's possible, of course, to pick up a modern sportsbike or a Nissan GT-R and at least experience supercar-rivaling acceleration...

Introduced at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, Ferrari’s F12 Berlinetta remains one of the most capable sports cars on the planet. Chris Harris found this out recently, after spending a week with the car and taking it out to an empty track to burn some rubber. How much rubber? Well, about five...

Ferrari celebrated 30 years of selling its cars in Hong Kong with a gala event attended by chairman Luca di Montezemolo and over 2,000 guests. There was also more than 600 Ferrari cars present, spanning every era, and these were arranged to form the characteristic symbol of Hong Kong, the...

The Switzer Goliath is a Nissan GT-R that's been worked over to produce gobs of horsepower. Gobs, of course, is a very technical term that means "a whole hunk of." In this case, the gobs refers to a figure north of 1,700 horsepower, and that's plenty to propel the GT-R down the Dragtimes dragstrip...

With the first P1s now on their way to their eagerly awaiting customers, McLaren is finally confirming some of the car’s performance figures. Many of the specs we already know but now they are no longer preliminary figures: they are what the 375 buyers of the P1 will actually be able to...

McLaren chairman Ron Dennis has made some pretty bold claims for the company’s P1 supercar, including setting “a new benchmark” for supercars and posting a lap time for Germany’s Nürburgring Nordschleife of under seven minutes. Currently, the production car lap record...

The first images and details for Lamborghini’s new Veneno Roadster have hit the web. The car is the convertible version of the Veneno coupe first shown at the 2013 Geneva Motor show, which was limited to just four examples in total. But unlike the coupe, Lamborghini is planning as many as...

The Porsche 911 Turbo has always been a fast car. Of course, it's gotten faster as the years go on and technology allows it to bridge new performance chasms. The latest and greatest is the 2014 911 Turbo S, which Porsche claims will hit 198 miles per hour at the top end. That's all well and good...

It’s now possible to take a stroll through Lamborghini’s official museum in Sant’Agata Bolognese from the comfort of your own home, thanks to the magic of Google Maps. Using the same technology as the Google Maps street view function, you can simply click your way through the two...

Ferrari’s F12 Berlinetta is near perfection in standard form, yet somehow the tuners at Novitec Rosso manage to consistently improve upon the car. The German tuner was one of the first to get its hands on the F12 and now, one year on, it has released a new wide-body conversion for the...

This man is Erik Dumas. He's Canadian, and therefore funny. He just proposed to his girlfriend, Mary. And he got a Ferrari out of the deal. How did this wizard perform such a feat, you ask? It's actually quite simple: Dumas' girlfriend said he could have an engagement Ferrari when she got an...

Featured in the video above is Giorgio Sanna, Lamborghini’s chief test driver for both its production car and motorsport programs. He replaced Valentino Balboni, who officially stepped down from the role back in 2008 but has continued to influence Lamborghini's cars in a consulting role...

The Honda NSX Concept-GT race car has many talents.

Lang Lang has inspired the design of a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. The car was presented by the world famous pianist at an event that took place last month at Chateau St. Jean in California, and features a color scheme that mimics the black and white keys of a piano as well as the two-tone...

Following its official debut at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, McLaren’s new 12C GT Sprint has gone on sale, priced from 195,000 British pounds (approximately $315,827). That may seem a lot for what is essentially a track toy (the car isn’t homologated for any racing...

If you've wondered just how the Porsche 918 Spyder manages to put its plug-in hybrid, all-wheel drive system to use--or how it packages it all in the Spyder's sleek little body--wonder no more. Porsche has answered all of your questions in exquisite, beautiful detail. The 918 Spyder is already...

Yesterday we learned that the SLS AMG would be phased out soon, with its role as the flagship Mercedes-Benz sports car to be taken up by a smaller and more agile model likely to be called the AMG GT. Fans of the big gullwing needn’t be too sad, however, as a direct replacement is planned...
