Tens of millions of pickup trucks have engines in the front. Then there are the ones with engines in the rear (think Volkswagen Type 2 pickups, for instance). But have you ever seen one with an engine in the middle? This 1972 Porsche 914 pickup truck is most likely one of the only two in the world...

You know all the stats. You've seen the live photos. You've even read our first drive report. Now you can see it in action as we hop behind the wheel for a couple of days in the 2014 Corvette Stingray on the Monterey peninsula just ahead of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. Don't listen to the...

Lexus is working on a new coupe that will go up against the Audi A5, BMW 4-Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe in the luxury arena, however, the car will also do battle with the likes of the Acura NSX, Nissan GT-R and a few European exotics in the world of Super GT. Super GT is Japan’s...

The Scion FR-S enters its second year on the market with some minor changes and a small price increase, but sadly there are still no performance options to talk about. The biggest change is the introduction of a new 6.1-inch touchscreen display that is now standard. The display has actually been...

Dutch sports car manufacturer Spyker has lifted the veil off a new convertible version of the stunning B6 Venator concept car that we first saw at the Geneva Motor Show in March. The convertible, aptly named the Spyker B6 Venator Spyder, made its debut today at the Pebble Beach Concours...

Here’s a fresh batch of photos of the stunning new BMW Concept M4, taken at its unveiling yesterday at the 2013 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Though still a concept, the car provides a clear indication as to how the new M4 sports car, the successor to the M3 Coupe, will look like...

M fans need wonder no more; the BMW Concept M4 has just been revealed at the 2013 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance taking place in Monterey, California this week. Though still a concept, the car is an almost perfect representation of BMW’s successor to the M3 Coupe, the new M4 (F32) ...

Now that you’ve read our first drive report on the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it’s time to drool over this gallery and finally convince yourself that you need one parked in your driveway. For the money, no car comes close to matching the new ‘Vette in terms of performance, style and...

BMW will present the full line of M Performance accessories for its new 4-Series coupe at the 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show next month. We were given a taste of what to expect back in July but now we have more details on the accessories, which include everything from aesthetic improvements to power...

As we welcome the latest heir to the Corvette throne of American sports car greatness, it's worth taking the time to look back at the previous six generations to see where the new Stingray plants its roots. The first generation of the Corvette (1953-1962) bears little resemblance to today's...

These are the first images of a new Audi Quattro concept set to debut next month at the 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show. In 2010, Audi rolled out a similar modern Quattro concept to mark 30 years since the launch of its original Quattro, and while that previous concept was slated for production a new...

If you've been saving your pennies hoping the new seventh-generation Corvette would deliver the performance goods, get your hammer. It's time to break open the piggy bank. Why? Because the Z51 package makes it almost--almost--as good as a C6 Z06, but it's just $51,995 in base form. The last Z06...

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is almost ready for its showroom debut but before that happens there’s still plenty to learn about the latest generation of one of America’s most iconic sports cars. Today we’re taking a close look at the digital gauge cluster that will be...

Keep this video on repeat as those growls you hear are the sweet sounds of the new straight-six engine developed for the latest generation of the BMW M3 and the all-new M4 (basically a new M3 Coupe). Also shown in the video is a small sliver of the new M3’s power dome hood, whose yellow hue...

The design of the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is close to being an undisputed knockout, which is very impressive considering the car’s developers started with a blank sheet of paper, both for the car’s exterior as well as the platform underpinning it all. From its distinct...

Prior to the last decade, Toyota sold a trio of sports cars that catered to a relatively wide spectrum of the new car market. Even now the names of those sports cars, Supra, MR2 and Celica, hold a certain cachet with performance buyers, despite Toyota losing its way and dropping all three model...

Lexus will soon launch a new coupe to challenge the Audi A5, BMW 4-Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe, and just as those rivals all have high-performance variants so too will the Lexus. The new Lexus coupe will essentially be a two-door IS but a unique name, in this case RC, and differentiated...

It was four years ago at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show that we first saw BMW roll out its Vision EfficientDynamics concept and announce its commitment to launching an advanced sports car with stellar gas mileage based on it. At the 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show in one month’s time, BMW will finally...

The recent $448 million Powerball jackpot was won by a lucky few. One of those few was Minnesota resident Paul White, who took home a share of the prize worth $58 million after taxes. Not a bad pay day, and an amount we'd most certainly use to acquire a few choice automobiles. White thinks the same...

In the same week Subaru showed a new STI-tuned BRZ concept, Toyota rolled out a version of its GT 86 sports car, a Scion FR-S to U.S. readers, fitted with some of its own performance upgrades. The vehicle, described as a prototype, was presented to Australian media at an event organized by Toyota...
