Racing drivers Scott McLaughlin and Robert Dahlgren recently headed to northern Sweden to spend some time in the new 2015 Volvo S60 Polestar. The duo race a unique version of the car in Australia’s V8 Supercars touring car series, and Dahlgren thought that it would be a great deal of fun to...

Jay Leno's Lotus Elan 26R is the ultimate version of what many consider the ultimate small sports car.

You'd be forgiven for thinking a car company called Detroit Electric would produce its cars in, or at least near, Motor City itself. After all, the car bearing the same name was produced there back in the early 1900s. But these days things aren't so simple. Modern day Detroit Electric will produce...

BMW’s new M4 has made its debut in coupe form, and soon it will spawn a convertible. Prototypes for the M4 Convertible have been spotted wearing the least camouflage gear we’ve seen yet, which means an auto show debut can’t be far. Like the M4 coupe (and the M3 sedan), the M4...

An automotive design and manufacturing firm based in Irvine, California that we’re sure few have heard of has come out with a new teaser for a sports car it claims to be working on. The company is Rezvani Automotive Designs, a company previously linked with the designs of pieces of vaporware...

These days, launching a production car that looks just like the concept that spawned it isn't anything special. Car designs are finalized so far in advance that usually, concept cars are just tweaked versions of actual production vehicles hitting the streets further down the line. MUST WATCH...

Senior managers at Jaguar have suggested that a hardcore, lightweight version of the stunning F-Type Coupe could be on its way--and performance could approach some bona fide supercars. According to a new report, Jaguar is looking to shed as much as 200 kilograms from the F-Type's weight--around 440...

Mitsubishi’s Lancer Evolution is getting on in years, with the current generation, the Evo X, having been with us since the 2008 model year. Mitsubishi has hinted at launching a radically different successor, but there’s no official word that we’ll ever see such a car in the next...

The long wait for the arrival of the new M3 and M4 in showrooms is almost over, as today we have received the all-important pricing information. After exiting the market at the end of the 2011 model year, the M3 sedan returns for 2015 and sees its pricetag inflate to $62,925, which is about $6,650...

A new British firm specializing in track cars and run by former senior managers of Caterham has set up shop in the U.S. market. The new firm is Zenos, which back in January revealed its first product, the E10, a rival to the likes of the Ariel Atom and KTM X-Bow. Since then Zenos has established a...

The Porsche Cayman is generally considered one of the finest sports cars on the face of the planet, usable every day but a riot when you're in the mood. Its only real problem is ubiquity--Porsche will sell tens of thousands of the things over coming years, many of which will be as good as...

Jaguar’s all-new F-Type Coupe is almost ready for its market launch, and given its combination of performance, stunning looks and luxury, we bet that it will be one of the hottest sellers this summer. Like its convertible alternative, the F-Type Coupe gets its power from a pair of...

Volkswagen engineers have started testing a mysterious Golf GTI prototype that we suspect may be for a hardcore track variant, hence the “Club Sport” tag. The car was seen running some hot laps at Germany’s Nürburgring, and a number of elements it’s wearing provide...

Anyone who buys a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray can sign up for a two-day program at the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School near Las Vegas and receive a $1,500 discount. That means you have to pay just $1,000 to learn how to get the most out of your Vette as well as how not to see it end up...

Jaguar’s XK is expected to be discontinued this year, as the aging grand tourer continues to lose sales to its younger and more dynamic F-Type sibling (only 4,000 XKs are said to have been sold last year). A successor is planned, although the new car is likely to evolve into a larger, more...

Maserati's Alfieri Concept was one of the stars of the recent 2014 Geneva Motor Show, revealed out of the blue to celebrate the brand's centenary this year. Recognizably a Maserati, it still features a very different design ethos to that of the company's existing vehicles. To explain the process...

Jaguar’s current XJR only hit the market last year but an update is already on the way, as evidenced by these spy shots of a prototype version of the luxurious sport sedan. The update will coincide with the introduction of a facelifted XJ range later this year, and appears to include subtle...

In late 2011, BMW and Toyota signed a memorandum of understanding for collaboration on a number of projects, one of which was joint development of a sports car platform that would underpin a model for each automaker. While Toyota has made little secret of its plans for the new platform, having...

Alfa Romeo’s stunning 4C sports car is due in local showrooms around June, but overseas the car has been on sale for several months and has already managed to rack up more than 1,700 orders. By the time we finally get it, Alfa Romeo will already be preparing an update for the car...

The Porsche Boxster is an undeniably great sports car. It was so good when it was introduced in all-new 981 form that we named it our 2013 Best Car To Buy. For the 2015 model year it's getting even better with the addition of the GTS model. MUST SEE: Size Matters 2: The Jumping/Drifting Semi Truck...
