The biggest update to the Audi R8 supercar may be coming next year, with reports coming out of Europe suggesting that a facelifted version of the Audi flagship is planned. While we’ve previously reported on a second-generation R8 due in 2014, this is the first time that details of an update...

Germany's Sport Auto has tested the new Lamborghini Aventador for its top speed and its lap time around Hockenheim.

The owner of this sad looking Audi R8 was simply driving down a road yesterday in Tampa, Florida on the way to dinner when the driver of a pickup truck allegedly ran through a stop sign and crashed into him causing the damage you see here. Fortunately there were no major injuries for any of the...

In love and cars, it's bittersweet to wonder what might have been. Add nearly 80 years to an element of mystery, and you'll get something like the Auto Union Type 52. If ever the words "ancestral supercar" belonged together, this is it. Recent features on Jalopnik and IEDEI got us thinking about...

We've always disliked the word "snapshot." A picture isn't an instant in time. It's the tail end of a lot of talent and preparation, a good measure of luck, and a little bit of magic. It can raise pulses and change minds. It even can turn some awkward-looking rides from the real world into mythic...

Savage Rivale is an ambitious startup based in the Netherlands and working hard on not just a new car, but a whole new segment. That segment, albeit a niche one, is the four-door convertible supercar segment, a void which in the very near future will be filled by the striking Savage Rivale...

The video above shows local police applying a wheel clamp to the million dollar exotic, which was left illegally parked on a downtown Prague street...

Bugatti has built another special edition Veyron supercar, this time based on the already limited Veyron Super Sport model. Only one example of the car, dubbed the Edition Merveilleux, will be built, and it was recently delivered to its buyer in China, a 40-year old man known only as...

As we’ve seen in the past, the 802-horsepower Koenigsegg CCX isn’t the easiest car to drive. In fact, it’s safe to say that keeping the car, and all its 806 horsepower and 678 pound-feet of torque, safely on the road is something the average driver is unlikely to be capable of...

Usually the supercar is the artwork, but in this video, the Lamborghini Reventon is nothing more than a canvas.

The 2013 SRT Viper has been revealed. Click here for all the official details. As we twist in the wind over the 2013 SRT Viper's debut venue--it could be Detroit, but New York is looking more likely--the SRT brand has announced it is re-opening the Viper's Conner Avenue production facility, and...

A Georgia-based finance company looking to collect the $79,095 balance outstanding for a Lamborghini Murcielago repossessed from Jermaine Dupri.

Having already built a Corvette with more than 1,500 horsepower under the hood and top speed bragging rights of 231 mph, Late Model Racecraft has gone out and posted a video of one of its modified Corvette ZR1 supercars running the quarter mile at 9.68 seconds at 147 mph. This, says Late Model...

While supercar crashes are nothing new, last week was a particularly bad week for Ferrari fans across the globe. We reported the destruction of 11 Ferraris in a mere five days. Now let's take a look back at the carnage. Please, hold the tears until the end. First on our Ferrari destruction world...

The new Lotus is building a new V-8 engine, in part to power its upcoming Lotus Esprit, due in 2013. Reported to generate up to 570 horsepower, the new Lotus V-8 is being built from scratch, completely in-house, a move which Lotus characterizes as big and brave decision. The motivation is to be...

Acura will be making waves at next month’s 2012 Detroit Auto Show with three new concept vehicles previewing models destined for production in the very near future. One of these will be the highly anticipated successor to the Acura NSX supercar, which despite still being a concept has already...

Hopefully the last in what may eventuate as one of the worst weeks in history for Ferrari owners, this black Ferrari F430, possibly a hardcore Scuderia model, suddenly caught fire while it was being driven down a stretch of road in Houston, Texas, earlier this week. A passerby managed to capture...

Can’t afford a supercar? Don’t sweat it as there are numerous companies around the world aimed at getting you behind the steering wheel of mega-dollar machinery for relatively little money. Here in the U.S. groups like Gotham Dream Cars offer up Lamborghinis and Ferraris for daily...
