  • Terrafugia Flying Car

    Flying car company Terrafugia hasn't yet delivered a single example of its first effort, called the Transition, to customers. Of course, that hasn't stopped it from releasing a new animation of its next product, the TF-X. Please bear with us here. As always, the promises made in the promo are impressive. Vertical takeoff and landing mean there's no need for runways, its 200 mph top speed would make it faster than a Cessna, and automated landing cycles make it perfect for novice pilots. But do we have any confidence we'll see it built? Absolutely not. While Terrafugia has made successful test...

    This Nissan GT-R is a hyper-focused two-door destroyer of race tracks. It's also a car that can be driven to the grocery store, or to and from work on a daily basis. That sounds like a recipe for a machine that should be beloved by all who appreciate automobiles. That's not the case though, as the...

    Bentley’s new SUV—the Bentayga—is due to enter production in 2016 and should be in showrooms by the end of that year. Today we have the most revealing spy shots yet of the upcoming SUV, which we expect to be revealed this September at the 2015 Frankfurt Auto Show. The general styling of the Bentayga is based on Bentley’s EXP 9 F concept from 2012, although the somewhat gaudy front-end design of the concept has been updated to something more elegant and athletic. Bentley designers have adopted four individual lights for the production SUV’s headlights as opposed...

    Ford Developing Headlights Smarter Than Your Average Glare: Video

    In the late '40s, the Tucker Torpedo featured a third headlight dubbed the Cyclops Eye.

    Even for those without a terribly active imagination, the phrase "secret underground lab" implies plenty.

  • Ferrari 250 TR Recreation

    When you're passionate about something in this life, it's best to go out and try your best to follow the notions and ideas that spring from that passion. While that sounds like good advice, it's not always possible to do this. For example, let's say you're passionate about cars. More specifically, let's say your passionate about the iconic and amazing vintage Ferrari racing machines. To be able to acquire and maintain such a machine would require many tens of millions of dollars. It's just not feasible for most. Peter Giacobbi clearly isn't "most".

    Fiat 28-Liter 'Beast Of Turin' Driven For First Time In 100 Years

    Jay Leno Examines The Old School Muscle Of A '67 Hurst Barracuda: Video

    The Plymouth Barracuda was a pretty wonderful piece of the muscle car pie back in its day. Today though it seems the second-generation cars get heavily overlooked in favor of the third-generation machines from 1970 and 1971. They shouldn't though, because they can be made to look quite 'Cuda-esque...

    The new BMW 2-Series is one of the many culprits of the brand’s confusingly revamped naming system, but that doesn’t stop it from being a very fun little luxury sports coupe—particularly in M235i form. Soon, however, the most potent version of the 2-Series should be on the road...

  • Lexus Hoverboard

    Since Marty McFly hopped on a pink Mattel version in Back to the Future II, kids—and plenty of people who aren't kids—have desperately wanted to ride a hoverboard. Last October, American startup Hendo released a video of a prototype being ridden on a small half pipe. Some of the skaters on the Motor Authority staff, however, honestly thought the execution looked a little weak. So when we got wind that Lexus was taking a crack at the tech, we were intrigued—even though we weren't even sure it was real. Sure, Lexus had built a website for it, and the initial teaser was...
