There weren't many Challengers at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show, but I snapped a few shots of the two Challengers--one a 2010, one a 2011--that were on the floor. I know there are only four pics there, but they offer an early glimpse at the SE and one last look at the outgoing 2010 Challenger...

Want to see video of the 2012 Boss Mustang being revved on the dynamometer? Want to question my sanity for standing in front of the car instead of on the side? Well, here you go. This is the sound of the Boss at full-boat fury, in simulated drag-strip conditions. Can't wait to see it in action on...

As Saab announced back in August, the 2011 9-4X just came out from behind the curtain at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show. The live photos confirm the production model will closely resemble the concept we've seen before. So what is the new 9-4X? About what you'd expect, since it was co-developed with...

The 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show is chock full of new cars, debuts, and concepts, but Subaru's Impreza Design Concept is sure to grab its share of attention. Aggressively styled but with just enough/not too much of the funky that often pervades the brand, the car points toward the possible future for...

On the eve of its Los Angeles Auto Show appearance—and six weeks or so after its Paris Auto Show debut—the British automaker gave comedian and late-night host Jay Leno an exclusive opportunity: He's the first person to drive the C-X75 on a public highway. Why Leno? The entertainer...

I had the chance to drive a few laps at California's Infineon Raceway in the new 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 last week, and while this report will be short (My drive was limited to just a few hot laps), I'll do my best to make it informative. We've already published the details on the...

This past week Ferrari F1 drivers Felipe Massa And Fernando Alonso took time out from their preparation for the 2010 F1 Championship title decider at Abu Dhabi to visit the theme park centered on the Prancing Horse marque. The two drivers got to experience the Formula Rossa, the world’s...

Treacherous conditions are the name of the game in the Wales Rally Great Britain, so it's no surprise perhaps that Ken Block managed to roll his race ride while practicing in muddy, snowy conditions at the M-Sport proving grounds for the rally this week. On the other hand, the fact that it's Ken...

• Remember that clip of 50 Cent jamming $2 million into a Lamborghini Murcielago? Not to be outdone, Verne Troyer has posted a photo reply, featuring the actor with stacks of (possibly real) dough in his own Lambo Countach. It's supposed to represent $2 million, but it looks a little short to...

Call it psychological scarring from junior high if you will, but you say Metamorphosis and I think of Franz Kafka and man-sized cockroaches. That's probably not what Lotus was going after when it hired French artist Gerard Rancinan to film its new lineup unveiled at the 2010 Paris auto show, but...

The Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe is a favorite among musicians and sports stars all over the globe but one very special edition stands out among the rest, a brand new 2009 model decked in blood red and customized to the hilt. Like a young Jay Leno, T-Pain is an avid car enthusiast and has...

We knew the Aston Martin Vantage N420 would be coming to the U.S. back in July when pricing was released, and we finally saw the roadster version in the flesh at the Paris Auto Show, but now we have the first video trailer of the car. After some symphonic music and mellow static panning shots, we...

The 2011 Shelby GT500 is an impressive beast, as we showed you from our first drive at Virgina International Raceway (complete with video). But now Shelby and Nelson Racing Engines have decided to team up to make the 2007-2009 GT500 something truly unique, with the aid of a pair of turbochargers...

Hear are some questions we're pondering on this peaceful Zen Tuesday: 1. What is the sound of one hand clapping? 2. Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near? 3. What do you do with a drunken sailor? 4. Who's on first? 5. Why in the hizell would 50 Cent stash $2 million in the boot of a...

We've seen Mustangs that can break nine seconds in the quarter-mile, and now we know of at least one aftermarket Camaro that is coming close to breaking nine seconds as well. This LS9-powered Lingenfelter Camaro with the six-speed manual transmission came very close to breaking the nine-second...

Did you know a Lamborghini can carry several houses in its forward-mounted trunk? Well, it can, if you turn those houses into cash. How do we know this? 50 Cent put $2 million in cash into a Lamborghini Murcielago and captured the feat on video. The running commentary turns what would otherwise be...

The days of lightweight, rear-wheel drive sedans are well behind us, but we can reminisce, as in this video of Patrick Snijers flying over crests, sliding around corners, and generally tearing it up at the 1988 Manx Rally. Bimmer fans will delight, though anyone can appreciate both the car and the...

Despite BMW not having built a true supercar for 30 years since its original, limited-edition M1 model, we have reported on a number of occasions that the automaker is trying to reinvent its performance image with a new 'green' sports car combining the best elements of two very important concept...

The BBC's Top Gear is perhaps the most well-recognized and widely-watched motoring program on earth, and the series' dependence on a hired gun that plies the world's best supercars at the show's test track is equally well-known. This hired gun, commonly referred to as the Stig, came to be almost as...
