If you’re wondering what Formula One drivers do for fun on testing days, this video should answer that question. While at the Circuit de Catalunya for pre-season shakedown testing of the new Ferrari F138 Formula One car, Scuderia Ferrari drivers Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa borrowed a...

Regarded by many as the purest of the Porsche 911s, the GT3 is something of a sacred cow to many. Here, we get a glimpse at the reason why. When it comes to race cars you can drive on the street, few come close to matching the overall package of the Porsche 911 GT3. The fifth generation of the car...

Hear the sound of the Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG for the first time--and compare it to its European cousin, the A45 AMG.

Finnish tire manufacturer Nokian Tyres has smashed its own ice-driving speed record set in March, 2011. The new record, an astonishing speed of 208.6 mph (335.7 kmh), was once again set by the firm’s test driver, Janne Laitinen, and beats the old record by 2.5 mph. Laitinen also used the same...

Over the last few months, Christian Von Koenigsegg has taken us on a guided video tour of the Agera R’s design and construction. We’ll admit to being impressed by the company’s attention to detail in all areas, and we’re going to miss Von Koenigsegg’s behind-the-scenes...

Late last year Volvo quietly discontinued its C30 hatchback from the market, with nary a mention of a reason why or a possible replacement. It’s likely the fact that Volvo only managed to sell around 4,500 C30s annually in the U.S., which, understandably, is not nearly enough to justify its...

Max Plantinger isn’t your typical car collector. His modest garage is stocked with single-brand parts, not with an endless array of high-dollar collector cars that are too valuable to drive. A passionate Audi fan, Plantinger’s collection consists of two Audi 100 Coupe S models, as well...

Most manufacturer-produced automotive videos feature high-end cars in exotic locations, backed by either a classical, trance or techno music soundtrack. While that may be fine for most consumers, those of us with 5w30 in our veins much prefer to hear the engine’s song instead of canned...

Lamborghini automobiles are not known for their subtlety. Everything about the Italian automaker's cars is bold, brash and in-your-face, from their sinister styling through their bright colors and loud exhausts. In that regard, the stretch Lamborghini Aventador limo proposed by U.K. luxury car hire...

Last week Ferrari, Lamborghini, and McLaren unveiled some new hypercars at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show.

Just as the McLaren P1 shares much of its on-road technology with F1 cars (Drag Reduction System, KERS-type hybrid, etc.), it also shares its tire (or tyre) technology with F1's tiremaker: Pirelli. Like F1 cars, the P Zero Corsas on the P1 aren't off-the-shelf numbers. They're bespoke, made...

There really aren't words to describe how out-of-place a pickup truck feels in Europe. Americans simply can't formulate the proper mentality. But seeing the reactions of Europeans helps give us an idea. What about seeing not just any ordinary pickup truck, but a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor? And not just...

This video is a prime example of why owners of high-powered cars should definitely enroll in a driving course that explains to them the dynamics of more than 500 horsepower being sent to only the rear wheels, and preferably gets them out on the skidpan too. It shows the owner of a Ferrari 458...

“His job was simple: deliver a car. But in the desert, nothing is simple.” And with those catchy phrases, Jaguar manages (quite nicely, we might add) to suck you into Desire, an upcoming short film by Ridley Scott Associates that makes us want the 2014 Jaguar F-Type more than we already...

The reveal of the Ferrari “La Ferrari” may have stolen some of McLaren’s Geneva Motor Show thunder, but the Woking-based automaker wants the world to know the McLaren P1 won’t be known as the second-fastest production car in the world. As Cars UK tells us, McLaren’s...

The 2014 Alfa Romeo 4C sports car has finally made its public debut in production trim, stunning audiences at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show where it is currently on display. However, the 4C shown in Geneva isn’t a regular model but a special ‘Launch Edition’ that will be built in a...
