  • BMW M6 Fire Orange by BMW Individual

    We're sure there are downsides to being a professional racing driver, but it's fair to say the upsides probably cancel these out somewhat. You get paid to drive cars quickly around race tracks, for a start, but the jet-set lifestyle, adoration from fans around the world and healthy income can't be too bad either. MUST SEE: Pagani Huayra From The Driver's Point Of View: Video And if you're really lucky, a major automobile manufacturer will create an extra-special version of your favorite car, just for you. That's what BMW Individual has done for Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) driver Marco...

Where BMW or Mercedes might shy away from loading its performance models with the latest eco tech, Volvo has nothing to lose--and everything to gain from a rethink of traditional performance car norms. According to Autocar, future Polestar models are likely to be...
