Day two of our 30 Days of the 2014 Jaguar F-Type starts where everyone should: ogling the little roadster. The second image in the gallery above was submitted especially for Motor Authority by Jaguar Land Rover North America's vice president of communications, Stuart Schorr. The F-Type almost...

If you’re longing for a Tesla Roadster but aren’t prepared to drop your hard-earned on a used example, another electric startup, whose name dates back more than a century, has just unveiled its own Lotus-based electric roadster. That startup is Detroit Electric, which, as promised a...

Making its debut at the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show in China this month is the 2014 Porsche Panamera, which represents the first major update to the sporty sedan since its original debut, also in Shanghai, four years ago. On initial glance, it doesn’t look like much has changed, as the 2014...

Chevy is said to be limiting the number of dealers that sell the new Corvette in order to help production keep up with demand.

UPDATE: The 2014 Porsche Panamera has been revealed. Click here for all the details. When it made its debut at the Shanghai Auto Show in 2009, many were critical of the Porsche Panamera's looks. It continues to have its detractors, but most have come to realize just how impressive the Panamera is...

Buy a BMW, and you can sign up to attend the BMW Performance Driving School. Buy a Mercedes-Benz AMG, and you can register for the AMG Driving Academy. Choose a Porsche, and you can hit the Porsche Sport Driving School. These are hardly your only factory-backed options, as nearly every manufacturer...

When Spyker showed its B6 Venator concept at this year’s Geneva Auto 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...

We’ll warn you in advance that the 2013 Subaru WRX Concept displayed at this week’s New York Auto Show may or may not be what the final product looks like. Subaru is hedging its bets, saying only that the show-stopping concept represents its “new design language” for the...

Sure, we’ve previously covered all the details on the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 and we’ve even brought you live images and video from the car’s global debut in Geneva. Why are we bringing you more live shots from this week’s New York Auto Show, then? Because Porsche street-legal...

Now that the new Porsche 911 GT3 has made its debut, attention turns to the next performance variant of the Type 991 Porsche 911 family, the infamous Turbo. Though we’ve been spying prototypes of the car for several years now, today, we have a new set of shots that show the new Porsche 911...

The flagship of the new CLA range, the CLA45 AMG, made its debut at the 2013 New York Auto Show.

One of the meanest looking cars on show at the 2013 New York Auto Show this week is Jaguar’s 2014 XKR-S GT. Built by Jaguar’s special projects division, ETO, the XKR-S GT is essentially a race car that has been made street legal. Starting with an XKR-S, which is already no softy, the...

Subaru has gone to some length to separate the WRX from its former pedestrian platform-mate, the Subaru Impreza. In 2012, Subaru dropped the Impreza name from the WRX and introduced an all-new Impreza; since then, only spy photos have hinted at what the next WRX would look like. Thanks to...

The high-performance variant of the new CLA Class has finally made its debut.

Though Audi’s new A3 Sedan range isn’t set for a formal debut until the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show next month, the German automaker privately unveiled the cars to a few select media, including us, on the eve of the 2013 New York Auto Show. Unfortunately, the launch of the new A3 in the...

From the onset, McLaren has been adamant its automotive manufacturing business would remain focused on super sports cars, and that its initial lineup would consist of three separate models. The first of these was the MP4-12C, launched in 2010. The new P1 flagship supercar has since joined the...

To be honest, we’re really over the whole celebrity thing. Meet one or two big-name racers, or actors turned racers, and you’ve (more or less) met them all. We’re willing to give autographs to anyone who wants one, but we’re not exactly the celebrity-stalker type ourselves...

With prototypes for facelifted versions of the 5-Series sedan and 5-Series Touring wagon already out and about, it was only a matter of time until we saw a facelifted M5 prototype. These are our first spy shots of the facelifted M5, which we expect to be launched on the market later this year but...

The Porsche 911 turns 50 in 2013, and the annual Goodwood Festival of Speed will factor heavily into the iconic sports car’s birthday celebration. All seven generations of Porsche 911 will be shown, alongside milestone 911 racers from Porsche’s lengthy motorsports history. The 1984...

To celebrate the start of the Toyota GT 86 Cup, a one-make racing series held in Europe and designed for Toyota's popular rear-wheel-drive sports car, the Japanese automaker has announced a limited run of ‘GT 86 Cup Edition’ special edition models. Designed to mimic the look of the GT...
