Eating a meal with young children is seldom a relaxing or enjoyable experience. But feeding wee ones after they've seen a personified potato have its skin peeled off and baby carrots get eaten alive? That's likely even less fun. Unfortunately, some parents now face that challenge, because as The...

You might think that car racing is all the same, regardless of the type of vehicle. Well, we sure hope you don't, but if you needed any proof, this video released by the folks at Snap-On Tools should debunk any concern you might have had. In the video, we get to watch Funny Car champ Cruz Pedregon...

You may be saying to yourself that you've heard enough about the new Mercedes-AMG GT R. You've seen plenty of shots of its flat-green Green Hell Magno paint. You know all the specs of the 577-horsepower monster mill packed under the hood. It's been AMG GT R overload. The problem is, we're not quite...

Don't worry. We didn't get the invite to check out Pagani's new droptop version of its Huayra, either. The Italian sports car builder held a very private event for some of its most important customers earlier this week ostensibly to inaugurate its new factory. But attendees were treated to an extra...

The Dodge Viper hasn't been a big seller, but Dodge has seemingly found a formula for selling its powerful snake: kill it and announce a bunch of special edition models. Four of the five special editions Dodge announced just last week have already sold out, and now Dodge is offering a new one...

One of the Goodwood Festival of Speed's major attractions is its renowned Hillclimb, a sprint up Lord March's driveway. It might not be as challenging as, say, the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, but Goodwood's paved road nonetheless attracts some of the most awe-inspiring cars in the...

There's only one CSX 2000, Carroll Shelby's first-ever Cobra. RM Sotheby's is set to offer the very first Shelby Cobra ever built, and easily one of the most valuable, for the first time to the public when it hits the auction block later this summer in Monterey, California. That very first Cobra...

Dodge has had a devil of a time selling its Viper supercar. Now it looks like the answer was to offer a bunch of special edition models, then to kill off the car. The company has announced that four of the five special edition models it just announced last week are already sold out. This is despite...

Porsche released information about the second generation of its flagship sedan just this week and now we have pricing information. The 2017 Porsche Panamera lineup will have just two models, at least initially. The Panamera 4S and Panamera Turbo will both come standard with all-wheel drive. The...

Backup cameras will soon become mandatory in all new cars, but for those of us with an older vehicle, solutions tend to be pricey and cumbersome to install. A company called Pearl, which is composed almost entirely of former Apple engineers, says it has created a solution called RearVision. It's a...

The original Ecto-1, built for the 1984 movie "Ghostbusters," was a 1959 Cadillac hearse that, according to Dr. Ray Stanz, only needed work done to the suspension, shocks, brakes, brake pads, brake lining, steering, transmission, rear end, engine, muffler, and wiring. Basically, it was great, but...

Some of the guys might wear race suits, but they’re just as likely to wear money-green track suits or black-and-white Speedos meant to look like "tuxedos." They’re racers and they’re having a blast. I've been to a fair number of automobile races and they're all carnivals. This one...

Chevrolet today announced that the sixth-generation of the Camaro, which was introduced last year as a 2016 model, will be the brand's car of choice next year in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. The car will be marked as an SS model, even though it will share nothing in common with the street car except...

In 2003 you could have shelled out about $56,000 to get a brand-new 50th Anniversary Corvette convertible. Now, you can spend $44,900, or possibly less, to get that same car in brand-new condition. A current eBay listing features a 2003 Corvette convertible with the 50th Anniversary package and...

Could it be back from the dead? Kind of, but not really. Pagani announced back in 2014 that it was discontinuing development of its Zonda supercar with the jaw-dropping Zonda Revolucion, but images have made their way onto the web showing one last hurrah for the Zonda. If you'll take a walk down...

The Camaro is turning 50 this year and Chevrolet is celebrating with a series of events and appearances, as well as a couple of videos featuring commercial and promotional footage from throughout the car's history. One of those videos is short and sweet, but we prefer the 18-minute montage showing...

Dual-clutch gearboxes are becoming increasingly common, and today's versions of these fast-shifting automatic gearboxes are far better than they were just a few years ago when they first hit the consumer market. Our friend Jason Fenske at Engineering Explained takes a look at these transmissions in...

Chevrolet has released a pair of new videos celebrating 50 years of Camaros with rare footage of all six generations of the pony car in action. The video above features complete commercials and promotional videos, while the shorter video below is a compilation with snippets from ads throughout the...

"Fast 8" is slated to hit theaters in 2017. The cast and crew are hard at work filming right now, and the social media team for the film posted some new shots to its Facebook page. This is a globe-trotting adventure much like the last film, but this time we're heading somewhere cold. The latest...
