Ever since BMW announced its new i division a few weeks ago, there has been a lot of speculation about exactly what the cars would look like, After all, aside from highly conceptualized drawings, only the featureless models above are what BMW has officially shown us of its new cars. Then there's...

Infniti is not the first car company to try to call its hybrid a performance car. In fact, you could probably hand that honor to Honda, which touted the Accord Hybrid's acceleration as much as it did its fuel economy. Since then, Porsche, BMW and Mercedes-Benz have all given the performance-hybrid...

Paul Ricard Circuit is well-known in the racing world as a model for track safety, making it one of the favorite places for teams to test new cars--there's almost no risk of destroying the car should a new car or setup prove uncontrollable at speed. As for the Glickenhaus P4/5 Competizione, we're...

We're not going to sit here and pretend to hang on every word that drops from the mouths of American Idol contestants. We're not even going to pretend that we've watched a full episode of the show. But when it comes to competitors hiding portions of their past...well, we're all ears. During his...

The new 2012 Audi A6 is without doubt a technical marvel.

Ford's 2012 Mustang Boss 302S is meant to be a track-day warrior, slotting in between the street-legal Boss 302 Laguna Seca and the race-dedicated Boss 302R. There will be only 50 units of the race-only 302S produced. Ford has released a video showing the car hitting a top speed of over 150 miles...

Pairing small, light roadsters from the 50s and 60s with rotary engines is nothing new. It's been done with complete and utter ferocity by people like Jeff Kiesel, whose turbo rotary Sprite is an autocross terror and wonder (see the video below for proof). But this particularly clean example of...

Et alors, qu'est-ce que c'est? Why, it appears to be actress, model, and object of Jeremy Clarkson's undying affection, Ms. Keira Knightley, perched atop a Ducati in Paris' Place de la Concorde.

What better way to start the day than a video of a starting-grid crash? Better yet, a PIT maneuver performed right in front of the flag stand.

Pure form meets pure function: the James Glickenhaus-backed Pininfarina Ferrari P4/5 Competizione combines the aesthetics of the original custom P4/5 with the ravenous track-eating ability of an endurance racer as it prepares for its outing at the 24 Hours of the Nurburgring this June.

This video shows the car off in all its...

Progress is a funny thing. For example, in the 80s Porsche introduced the 959, a special, limited edition supercar that was the embodiment of everything that Porsche knew how to do. It was blisteringly fast, all-wheel drive, with a water-cooled and turbocharged flat-six that put out 444 horsepower...

When the 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible launched earlier this year, it was perhaps inevitable that the tuner market would follow with its own take on the car. Well-known tuner Hennessey has done just that, with its HPE600 Camaro Convertible. Using an Eaton TVS2300 Roots-type supercharger...

If you thought the sound of the new Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 supercar’s V-12 engine was a little limp wristed in this previous video, just wait until you hear its menacing growl upon start up in the video below. Captured as it was being delivered to an exclusive dealership in Berlin...

The Porsche 911 GT2 is a car that needs no introduction. Often nicknamed the widow maker due to its sheer rawness and tendency to go sideways at will, the 911 GT2--as hard as it is to believe--is available in an even more extreme form, as the 2011 Porsche 911 GT2 RS. At a special event at El Toro...

Lately, several car-on-track videos of extremely desirable vehicles have come along. The footage has been beautiful, with graceful cars slicing through apexes, sunlight glinting off their paint and chrome, the background blurred as the camera tries to keep up. Unfortunately, for the most part you...

You've already seen Gymkhana Three, parts one and two. Now it's time for the bonus edit with alternate angles and some more horsing around from Block and crew.

It’s already touched U.S. soil, having made an appearance at last year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, but the first Bugatti Veyron Super Sport to be officially delivered to the U.S. has touched ground. Of course, we’re talking about the current world record holder for...
