Audi is looking to collect winter stories of its quattro all-wheel drive system in use, and let's face it: this winter probably provided ample opportunity with snow falling heavily from the North Pole clear into the Deep South. This video--which only briefly features the Audi R8, sadly--is a call...

Priced at a whopping 260,000 euros (or about $360,000 US) the Ferrari FF might not strike you as a quick seller, but you'd be wrong. All 800 of the first-year production run have sold in pre-orders. Likewise, the $370,000 Lamborghini Aventador has already pre-sold its first year run as well. The...

The 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK still may be the least honed, least intense of the trio of pricey German roadsters, but it's ripened over its 15 years and three generations. New for 2012, the latest SLK has pretty much steamrolled over any trace of its dainty past and hot-paved it with real...

Last year we told you about the 2012 Ford Ranger that's not coming to the U.S., and you responded strongly. And while we passed along Ford's explanation regarding why it wasn't coming, you overwhelmingly weren't convinced. Now, at the Geneva Motor Show Ford has brought out a new top-of-the-line...

While it may not be as exciting as some of the performance and luxury models on display at this week’s 2011 Geneva Motor Show, the new Audi A3 Sedan Concept has an irresistible quality that’s hard to ignore. Perhaps it’s because the styling is reminiscent of the previous B5 Audi...
