Luxury Cars

We're in the final days before the start of the 2012 New York Auto Show's press days, and the concepts and new cars are rolling in quickly. At the top of the list, we have the 2013 SRT Viper. Today, we got the final teaser, which reveals the front of the car--and shows it will be a bit of a...

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...

To Buick, size should have little to do with vehicle safety. Its smallest sedan, the Verano, recently earned a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), which means that every model in the current Buick lineup is a 2012 IIHS Top Safety Pick. To earn the Top...

Former NBA star Shaquille O'Neal praises the 2012 Buick LaCrosse for its room, comfort and "oh effect."

Aspiring car collectors take heed, as we have good news and bad news for you. The good news is that collector cars can be legitimate investments, but the bad news is that the Cosworth Vega or original Mazda RX-7 parked in your driveway doesn’t fall into the serious collector-car investment...

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...

Mercedes-Benz has started production at its new plant in Kecskemét, Hungary less than four years after the location decision was made in the summer of 2008. The plant, which is currently set up to produce the latest B Class hatchback, will soon start churning out other small Mercedes models...

The Lexus RX sits comfortably amidst the BMW X3, Audi Q5, Acura RDX, and Range Rover Evoque. But below it, the Audi Q3 and BMW X1 are snatching up bits of a segment that's not well-populated--at least in theory. Lexis is working to change that, according to the vice president of Lexus Europe...

There are few cars as perfect straight out of the box as the Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4, but as Lamborghini’s own Aventador J has shown us, there’s always room for improvement. Mansory, the German tuner selected by Lotus as its official vehicle customizer, has come out with a...

If you've driven the previous Acura RDX, you know the definition of compromise. While it was, in many ways, ahead of its time, the RDX was rough, balky, and awkward as much as it was peppy, fun, and high-tech. Times have changed. The 2013 Acura RDX doesn't look all that much different from the last...

As the middle child of the Lexus family, the ES sedan doesn’t get a lot of attention. Even its little brother, the IS, gets more time in the spotlight, as Lexus positions the sporty rear-drive IS as one of the gateways to the brand (with the other being the CT200h hybrid). For 2013, Lexus is...

Today, the newest feature in the spotlight is the Safety Alert Seat. Using haptic feedback (vibrations) in the seat bottom to give directional alerts to potential...

While most of us own watches, few of us actually wear them on a regular basis. When you drive a keyboard on a daily basis, watches tend to get in the way, and our computers and smartphones always display the correct time and date. Coincidently, none of us drive a Maserati, either. If we did drive a...

Upgrading your LFA to the Nurburgring package may cost you an additional $70,000 but it adds a whole assortment of upgrades to make the car even faster.

In 2009 it was Italy’s Panerai, the following year it was France’s Cabestan, and last year Swiss firm Hublot got the tick. This year, another Swiss firm, Movado, has been awarded the honor of designing, producing and marketing a series of watches under the Ferrari and Scuderia Ferrari...

BMW has issued a worldwide recall affecting more than 1.3 million 5-Series and 6-Series models, including approximately 367,000 examples located in the U.S. The recall only affects the previous generation 5-series and 6-Series models, built between 2003 and 2010.
