  • Ferrari Superamerica 45

    In previous years we’ve seen wild supercars like the BMW M1 Concept and Ferrari P540 Superfast Aperta unveiled at Italy’s annual Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, and this year will be no different. Kicking off this weekend at Lake Como in Italy, the event will see the unveiling of this coachbuilt Ferrari [NYSE:RACE] Superamerica 45, commissioned by New York collector Peter Kalikow. The New York native visited the Ferrari factory in Maranello this week to take delivery of his ‘Special Projects’ Ferrari Superamerica 45, a unique one-off model based on the...

    Noble M600 Supercar Takes To The Track: Video

  • McLaren MP4-12C GT3 race car

    We’ve been hearing whispers and rumors about an F1-succeeding McLaren flagship since around the time the MP4-12C debuted last year. Until now, information was limited to the very basics, but Autocar closed out a busy week by getting some insiders to divulge key design and performance details. And it looks like the upcoming supercar may blow away our wildest fantasies. The car being called the “Mega Mac” won’t just aim to compete with the likes of the Bugattis and Paganis; it will aim to defeat them handily. It’ll do so with a 799 horsepower 5.0-liter V-8 engine...

    America’s 215 Racing Inc. To Build New Supercar Based On Lamborghini Indomable Concept

    We’ve seen a lot of automotive startups in the recent past announce plans to build an exotic supercar only to disappear and never be heard from again, so forgive us for suggesting that the latest project from America’s own 215 Racing Inc. could just be vaporware. However, if built, the...

    If you've ever wondered what it might be like to suddenly stop being the least-known person on the world's best-known automotive TV show, Ben Collins is probably the best person to ask. That’s because he was the man behind the mask--or should we say helmet--of The Stig, Top Gear’s tame...

  • Dueling Lamborghini Aventador duo

    Finally, we get what we've been asking for: the Aventador, professionally filmed and gloriously recorded in audio, thrashing about winding Italian roads. This is the best video of the car yet. From the wailing engine notes to the automatic spoiler activation, these ground-skimming fighter jets duel through the bends, dips, and crests while suitably epic music fills the background. Well worth 2:38 of your day.

    7 Lamborghini Aventadors In Rome, Revving And Rolling: Video

    There's no need for an excuse to watch gratuitous Aventador footage, and this video carries just over four minutes of it.

  • Porsche 911 GT2 RS loses control on Nurburgring

    The Porsche 911 GT2 is a car that needs no introduction. Often nicknamed the widow maker due to its sheer rawness and tendency to go sideways at will, the 911 GT2--as hard as it is to believe--is available in an even more extreme form, as the 2011 Porsche 911 GT2 RS. Here you see why the car is so revered among driving enthusiasts, including Formula 1 stars. What appears like a relatively gentle curve on the notorious Nurburgring circuit in Germany proves quite the challenge for the driver of this red 911 GT2 RS. Perhaps too strong a tug at the wheel or maybe a hit of the accelerator too...
