  • 2013 McLaren MP4-12C Spider track day

    There are few cars that are actually abhorrent to drive on track, though there are many ill-suited to the task after the first lap, or even less. It's almost always fun to drive a slow car fast, especially if it has some dire handling deficiency, to be overcome by technique and anticipation--as long as there's no clock running. But driving a fast car on track is entirely different. It can be rewarding, challenging, and obviously quite fun. But it can also be extremely difficult, frightening, and even dangerous. Why? Because fast cars are, well, fast. And speed, rather than some innate...

  • 2014 Innotech Aspiron
    Innotech Aspiron Supercar Headed For Goodwood Festival Of Speed

    A new track car with the performance and looks to match a Formula One car is in the works and set to make its debut in just a few days at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed in the U.K. That track car is the 2014 Innotech Aspiron, which has been developed by the same people behind 2008’s...

  • Ferrari 458 smashed
    It's A Ferrari Smashtravaganza At Spa Francorchamps: Video

    Let's get this out of the way before we start here; seeing someone push their exotic sports car on a race track is a wonderful thing. Too often these highly capable machines are left all too shiny in someone's garage or pushed down the road to the country club and back. These cars were meant to be...

  • Mike Flewitt

    McLaren Automotive, the McLaren Group’s supercar manufacturing arm, has announced today that Mike Flewitt will serve as the company’s CEO. Flewitt only joined McLaren Auto in May of 2012 and until now served as the company’s chief operating officer. He will be reporting to Ron...

  • Pagani Huayra on the set of Transformers 4 movie

    Hollywood director Michael Bay just couldn’t contain himself from revealing the latest star to join the Transformers 4 crew, a Pagani Huayra supercar. Knowing what the Huayra is capable of, we wouldn’t have been able to keep it a secret either. Bay posted this image of the Huayra on his personal blog, where he also described the car as being a “masterpiece of design and engineering.” This particular Huayra is finished in a never-before-seen color from Pagani, blood red, and it has a particularly fierce look to it that would make it an ideal Decepticon in the new movie...

    What Ever Happened To Lexus’ LFA GTE Race Car?

  • Flo Rida’s gold chrome Bugatti Veyron - image: Wrapped World

    This shiny object is a custom Bugatti Veyron owned by rapper Flo Rida, real name Tramar Dillard. The car started out life in a pearlescent white hue but Flo Rida eventually got bored of this and went with a chrome finish. Clearly, just owning a Veyron wasn’t attention grabbing enough for the rapper. But Flo Rida’s lust for shiny cars didn’t end there. Perhaps determined to outdo the owner of this red chrome Veyron, Flo Rida recently called Florida’s Metro Wrapz and requested an even tackier flashier finish: gold chrome. Of course, you can’t drive a gold Veyron...

    Maserati MC12 For Sale On eBay: $1.6 Million (Or Nearest Offer)

    Maserati makes some pretty desirable cars, but better still is the option to dip into the Ferrari parts store now and then.

    Porsche 918 Spyder In The Valley Of Fire: Video

    The Porsche 918 Spyder may not reach quite to the same stratospheric heights--on paper--that the McLaren P1 and LaFerrari hyper-hybrids do, but it's no slouch, either. Better yet, you can still order one. Here, we see a new video of a 918 Spyder prototype in hot weather testing in the Valley of...

  • Mosler MT900 and Rossion Q1

    Mosler Automotive, founded by Warren Mosler during the 1980s, had a knack for making really awesome road cars that looked horrible, although it could be argued that Mosler's original Consulier GTP had a very cool 'form follows function' quality to it. By the late 1990s, Mosler started work on a new project that would eventually lead to the stunning MT900. But despite the car’s performance, which still puts some modern supercars to shame, sales never took off and the brand would continue to languish in obscurity. Sadly, Warren Mosler has given up on the brand he started. It has been...
