  • Spyker B6 Venator (production-spec)

    When Spyker showed its B6 Venator concept at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, it was easy to write off the shapely coupe as just another design exercise from a company struggling to find its niche (and even stay afloat in a changing market). The response to the B6 Venator, however, was overwhelmingly positive, leading the Dutch sports car brand to quickly confirm production and roll out the open-top B6 Venator Spyder concept at the 2013 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance just a few months later. Despite a number of headwinds, including recovering from a failed attempt to rejuvenate Saab, Spyker...

    2015 Acura MDX Sees Slight Price Increase

    How much do you think it would cost to build your own replica of the Tumbler from the Christopher Nolan-directed Batman films? I for one would be placing my bets in the low six-figure range. If I paid that much, I would apparently be overpaying because an enterprising young man in China is able to recreate a rolling version of the Tumbler for just over $11,000.

  • Ferrari 458 Speciale

    Ferrari recently confirmed it plans to give each of its models a shelf life of about eight years, but will also give them a significant update—or “modificato” as Ferrari describes it—midway through their product cycles to keep ‘em fresh and allow a ‘new’ model to be released every year. We’ve already seen this with the transition of the California to the latest California T, and the next model due is an updated 458 Italia. Set to arrive in 2015, the updated 458, code-named the 458M, is expected to receive a new turbocharged engine. However, this...

    Volkswagen has set itself an ambitious sales target for the U.S. market, aiming to hit 800,000 annual sales by 2018. Last year the automaker sold just over 400,000 units, which has led some to believe the 2018 target date may need to be pushed back. VW isn’t giving up, however, and is looking...
