    Fiat Abarth 124 Spider unveiled in Geneva

    The Fiat 124 Spider is distinguished from its Mazda MX-5 Miata sibling by retro styling but now there's another difference that's more than skin deep. Mazda doesn't offer a Mazdaspeed version of the current MX-5 but Fiat set its in-house tuner and motorsports arm to work on the 124. Debuting at the...

  • 2017 Jaguar F-Type SVR, 2016 Geneva Motor Show

    Jaguar’s F-Type was already one of the most compelling sports cars on the market thanks to a combination of stunning good looks, one of the best-sounding V-8s in production, plus a tasteful, well-built cabin. Now the British brand has thrown supercar performance into the mix, albeit without the usual supercar price tag. Say hello to the all-new Jaguar F-Type SVR. Available as a coupe or roadster, the F-Type SVR has the Mercedes-AMG GT S and Porsche 911 Turbo directly in its sights. However, the Jaguar substantially undercuts those rivals in price while outmatching them in the power...

    We've already seen the exterior of the rear-wheel drive Opel GT concept, and now we're getting a look at the sports car's interior ahead of its debut at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show next month. The interior is styled to mirror the exterior, with the same combination of dominant silver with red and black accents. The instrument panel is made from brushed aluminum as a visual reminder of the GT's lightweight construction, and is also a structural member, Opel says. Following in the footsteps of automakers like BMW and Tesla Motors [NSDQ:TSLA], Opel also ditched exterior mirrors. The GT features a...

  • 2016 BMW M2  -  First Drive

    The 2016 BMW M2 is, at long last, the M car that doesn’t try to please everyone—and will, because of that, end up pleasing far more driving enthusiasts in ways that matter. Get a group of longtime BMW enthusiasts together to talk cars—the ins and outs of the uncompromised, performance-tuned M cars—and chances are the discussion will devolve to nostalgic swoons about the 1995-1999 E36 M3. MUST SEE: 2017 Camaro SS 1LE Might Be Faster On Track Than Mustang GT350 After that, we’ll venture to say, BMW got a bit lost on a muddled path, and ended up with some M car...
