As anyone who’s ever had a loved one with cancer knows, fighting the disease often takes all the strength a patient can muster. For those with large and supportive families, getting to and from treatment may not pose a challenge. Many cancer patients aren’t this lucky, and are forced to...

One of two McLaren MP4-12C GT3 race cars being fielded by Gemballa Racing has suffered a violent crash during this past weekend’s VLN event at the Nürburgring race track in Germany. The Nürburgring race, which took place on Saturday, March 31, was the official competition debut for...

Following on from its successful It’s Halftime In America commercial, which aired during Super Bowl XLVI and featured Hollywood celeb Clint Eastwood, Chrysler has released four new ads, one for each of its brands and all based around the same comeback theme. The ads were all scripted and...

So big glass roof panels are not all that special these days--though they are nice. But big glass roof panels that move this elegantly are few, indeed, and this one you'll find on the 2013 Lincoln MKZ. The video, released today by Lincoln, shows the retractable glass roof in action, gliding silkily...

Well, that was quick. Just a handful of weeks after its launch in Japan, the GT 86 has already been gutted and fitted with a Lexus IS F V-8 engine for use in D1 Grand Prix drift events by Manabu "Max" Orido's team. It's a classic idea, shoving a big V-8 in a small, light car, but that's not the...

Fiat brings a 2012 500 Abarth to Jay Leno's Garage for a test drive.

The Mazda 787B race car was an instantaneous legend. Driven to victory in the 1991 Le Mans 24 Hour race, it remains both the only Japanese car ever to win the race, and the only rotary-engined winner too. Perhaps even more than its shape, the defining characteristic of the 787B is its piercing...

Yesterday we brought you a story about a bus company in China teaching its drivers about the many number of exotic cars they’re likely to come across during their working hours and how they should be extra careful around them. That’s not to say that China’s highways are clogged...

We've talked about autonomous vehicles a lot in the past year or so, and as gearheads it's hard not to get wrapped up in the more negative aspects of the technology. If you love driving, the prospect of cars that drive themselves is a grim one. Driving is a skill you work hard to acquire, and...

Jürgen Ulmer is a daring man. He takes vintage Ferrari bodies, attacks them with a cutoff wheel and a torch, and ends up with what he calls art. Some might call it heresy. Ulmer's Ferrari Project is simply named, but much more difficult to decipher. The German artist says he only uses bodies...

Chris Harris drives four generations of Mercedes-Benz SL roadster to get a sense for the history behind the 2013 SL550.

Last week we brought you footage from Japan’s Car Nifty TV, showing the initial run of Ferrari’s 599XX Evolution at the Suzuka circuit. Despite a wet track and torrential rains, the cars looked impressively quick, which comes as no surprise since the 599XX Evo is quicker around Fiorano...

Fans of Xbox 360 racing title Forza Motorsport 4 won't be doing much egg-hunting this easter, as Turn 10 studios has announced the latest pack of ten new vehicles. The April Alpinestars pack will soon be available to download, and includes everything from iconic cars to the latest racing...

The Toyota GT 86, Subaru BRZ, and Scion FR-S triplets are some of the most anticipated new sports cars to come along in years. Not because of their tremendous performance, or even their exquisite styling, but because of their simplicity, focus, and because they're Toyotas (or Subarus, depending on...

So you thought folding clamshell hardtop roofs were the new hotness? Savage Rivale has another idea: the retractable telescopic multi-panel roof system, or RTMP. We like. It's pretty simple--so simple, in fact, we can't believe it hasn't been done before. Of course, so far, it's just a computer...

If you had 48 Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge Brazil cars gathered at Portugal's Estoril Circuit, what would you do with them? You could clearly hold a race, but that’s not going to fill a whole weekend. Since you have the cars on hand anyway, why not be creative? Creativity was behind this...

Under the heading of “things you can do with your car,” there are probably world records for just about any feat you can think of. There’s a world record for driving a loop-the-loop, a record for parallel parking and even one for how many passengers you can stuff into a MINI. As...

There’s no shortage of custom Challenger SRT8s, as the muscle-car-with-mass has followers every bit as loyal and creative as Mustang and Camaro fans. We’ve seen plenty of high-horsepower Challengers and have even witnessed a few set up for road racing, which really isn’t the...

Until March 25, 2012, the record speed achieved at the Texas Mile was 250.1 miles per hour. Hitting a number like that takes more than a fast car and steady nerves; environmental conditions have to be right, too. If there’s a head wind or a cross wind, chances are it will slow the car or make...

In the James Bond film Die Another Day, Q introduces 007 to his assigned Aston Martin Vanquish--or “Vanish,” as it’s nicknamed. Equipped with small cameras all around, they transmit images to a “light-emitting polymer skin on the opposite side,” Q explains, rendering...
