Supercars

We’ve known for some time that the insane 1,104 horsepower Zenvo ST1 supercar would be coming to the U.S. but now we have official availability and pricing details, as well as news that there will be a special edition launch model. The car’s local distributor, Red Sea Distribution, has...

We don’t know what the driver of this sorry-looking Ferrari F430 Spyder was doing when he flipped the car over but it’s safe to assume that some speeding was involved. The crash took place in Lichtervelde, Belgium on a quiet Thursday morning and is thought to have been caused by a...

Watching a stock production car, and an American one, no less, tag a consistent 1.5-1.6g of lateral acceleration on street tires (new Michelin Pilot Sport Cups) on its way to clicking off a 7:19.63 lap around the Nurburgring's Nordschleife is nothing short of mind-blowing, until you realize it's...

Remember the awesome four-rotor Mazda 787B race car that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans 20 years ago and is now set to run the famous French circuit during a demonstration ahead of this weekend’s 24 hour race? Well, it turns out that the 787B’s appearance this weekend won't be the last...

There are Lamborghinis and then there are Lamborghinis. Many, if not most, are coddled their whole lives, living decadent lives of garage- and trailer-bound pampering, rarely, if ever, seeing the kind of use for which they're ostensibly built. This one, however, has gone well beyond the usual...

The mixology for a seriously capable exotic is simple: take plenty of horsepower, add as much lightness as possible, give it a boutique name and a aerospace-inspired body and serve to anyone with $500,000 or so in their pocket. But even so, Mosler's newly announced Raptor is impressive. Packing...

It’s fairly safe to say that an open-top ‘Roadster’ version of the recently revealed Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 supercar was always going to be launched, but now we have some details of when the car is to be released. Thanks to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and its...

High-speed runs might seem simple enough: lots of runway, a straight line, and your foot to the floor. But they can go horrendously wrong at a moment's notice. That's what makes this 231-mph standing mile run by the Late Model Racecraft 1,500-horsepower twin-turbo Corvette in the video below all...

We have expected the return of the Dodge Viper given the frequent confirmation from the company. We didn't expect it--and still don't--until late 2012 as a 2013 model year car, despite reports of a 2012 model popping up in the Chrysler dealer inventory system, according to Allpar.com. To make it to...

Driving an exotic supercar like the Ferrari 599 GTO on public streets can often be difficult, thanks mostly to low ride heights, poor visibility and a throttle pedal that feels like you’re about to launch a scud missile with just inches of movement of your right foot. It also doesn’t...

No, that's not the latest Lamborghini Murcielago tune. No, really, it's not. It's an all-new supercar from none other than Poland. It seems that all you need is a flag and a population these days to have a supercar. In the past few years, we've seen supercar concepts in countries like Russia...

Ever since the M1 Homage concept was shown at the Villa D'Este Concours in 2008, the rumor mongerers have been swinging for the fences. Now there appears to be a veneer of reality surrounding the idea of a reborn M1, though if that's the case, it's still little more than a twinkle in a designer's...

As useless as it is to try to compare Nurburgring Nordschleife lap times (the variables are nearly endless) it's nonetheless a favorite pastime for the industry, media, and enthusiasts. Accordingly, it makes sense that McLaren would be doing a share of its final testing of the MP4-12C there, tuning...

Back in 2009 an FBI agent by the name of Fred Kingston was attempting to relocate an allegedly stolen Ferrari F50 supercar to a warehouse in Lexington, Kentucky but managed to crash the rare exotic during his short drive. Claiming the car experienced a blown tire, Kingston ran it up a curb where we...

Lamborghini Diabo GT-Rs are pretty rare, but it seems there's been a run on the market in California. Last week, we mentioned that a dealer in Southern California was selling one of two or three of the GT-Rs that had never been raced. Now another GT-R is for sale in Southern California. This one...

The Pagani Huayra is an unusual-looking supercar, with all its active aerodynamics and arthropod proportions, but it sounds absolutely brilliant thanks to the 7.3-liter Mercedes-Benz V-12 under the engine cover. This video is just more evidence. Or, if you wish, ear porn. Crank the speakers and...

Remember the Ferrari 575M Superamerica? The one based on the 575M Maranello but with a cool folding hard-top that simply flipped over? Well, Ferrari has built another exotic with the innovative roof system, this time based on the 575M’s successor, the 599 GTB Fiorano. Like the previous car...

Lifestyle products from automakers are nothing new. All the big name sports car manufacturers--Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Aston, etc. etc.--have them. As if owning a fancy pen or briefcase with an exotic automaker logo on it will somehow make up for the fact that you don't have the $300,000...

We’re proud to admit the Ford GT is one of our favorite supercars here at MotorAuthority. An iconic design with just enough modern touches to make it look new, the Ford GT is hard not to love and its V-8 engine just begs to be pushed hard. So hard in fact that several aftermarket tuners have...

Lamborghini ownership is already an exclusive club; but a Diablo GT-R is an even rarer find. Rarer still is one that has never been raced. The GT-R is a track-ready version of the Europe-only Diablo GT. Thirty of these cars were built in 1999 and 2000, with only two or three having never seen track...
