Supercars

Lamborghini has gone to great lengths to improve the weight and structural rigidity of its new Aventador LP700-4. The latest supercar is not only a powerful brute but it’s also technology-driven, and one standout feature is its extensive use of carbon fiber. In fact, the central structure of...

It wouldn’t be the Geneva Motor Show without some outrageous creation from Brabus and for this year’s event the German tuner hasn’t disappointed. Brabus has unveiled a new twin-turbocharged version of the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG supercar that promises an output of 700 horsepower and...

Shedding its funky, lego-man exterior for a sleeker, Touring Superleggera-designed skin, Gumpert has moved past the Apollo and on to the Tornante. It's an upgrade, and it goes deeper than the surface. About 220 pounds lighter than the Apollo thanks in part of a carbon monocoque and composite body...

The Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 has finally landed, and as expected it looks out of this world--as any Lambo should. Replacing the Murcielago as Lamborghini’s flagship, the Aventador represents the pinnacle of the company's design and construction capabilities. Its performance stats reflect...

Arguably one of the most anticipated debuts at this week’s 2011 Geneva Motor Show, the all-new 2011 Pagani Huayra has been revealed and we have to admit that its controversial styling is starting to grow on us. Perhaps it’s the 700 horsepower twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V-12 engine...

In the world of high-end car modification, there's extreme, there's insane, and then there's Mansory. But anyone that's actually been inside a Mansory vehicle knows the attention to detail and craftsmanship that goes into the firm’s over-the-top designs--it's enough to make a modified car a...

It’s safe to assume that most owners of the Ferrari 458 Italia would have little concern as to how much emissions their cars produce but nevertheless Ferrari is expected to debut a ‘greener’ version of its V-8 supercar during tomorrow’s 2011 Geneva Motor Show. The new 458...

Audi already has a lighter and more hardcore version of its R8 supercar, the new 2011 Audi R8 GT, which comes packing a 560 horsepower V-10 engine and a 220 pound lighter curb weight than the regular R8 V10 model. However, according to a new report, Audi engineers are developing an even lighter...

This is the aftermath of a crash that occurred in Malaysia last week and involved the Nissan GT-R you see here engulfed in flames and a Volkswagen Golf GTI, which managed to get away with relatively minor damage. It’s believed the two cars were heading in opposing directions when they came...

We can add yet another supercar debut pegged for next week’s 2011 Geneva Motor Show; Swedish automaker Koenigsegg has confirmed that a new model based on its Agera supercar will debut at the Swiss event and we now have the first official images and details (you may recall that images of the...

We're still bewildered by the Lexus LFA. Sure, it's fast, it's pretty good-looking, and it has a banshee of a V-10 under the hood. But it's priced at about 1.5-2 times the price of cars that look just as good (or better), are just as quick (or faster) and are far more readily available. This video...

This image may or may not be a teaser of the Tornante, Gumpert's second supercar and already shaping up to be much more aesthetically pleasing than its undoubtedly hard core but decidedly utilitarian Apollo. Part of the reason for the visual improvement is that the Tornante is penned by Italian...

We've been hearing about the Lexus LFA Nurburgring Package since last year, and we've been graced with a few images of it along the way. As the Geneva Motor Show approaches, Lexus is gearing up for the full monty with this new gallery of images. Revealing the bright-orange Nurburgring Package car...

The 2011 Geneva Motor Show is knocking on our door, due to kick off press days in just a week. The latest early arrival is this shot of Lamborghini's Murcielago-replacing Aventador LP700-4, in naked rolling chassis form. If the new chassis looks decidedly familiar in shape, it's for good reason...

We can finally confirm that the production version of 2009’s BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept, set to go on sale in October of 2013, will go by the name ‘i8’ and head a range of new eco-focused vehicles from BMW. BMW yesterday announced its new ‘i’ sub-brand...

Germany’s Edo Competition is an expert when it comes to modifying ultra-rare exotics so who better to tune one of Lamborghini’s most hardcore cars ever produced--the limited edition Murcielago LP640. About one and a half years ago the tuning firm’s engineers laid hands on a LP640...

The Pagani Huayra, like the Zonda before it, is polarizing in design: some love it, some can't wrap their heads around it. We're huge fans of the engine, the overall profile, and the performance--but not sold on many of the details yet. Whichever camp you belong to, you'll enjoy this footage and...

If you haven't seen the many crash images of sports and super cars split in half by the sheer force of their high-speed accidents, you're probably bit less morbidly fascinated by the topic than we are. Today's incredible (and incredibly stupid) crash isn't morbid, however. It's fantastically lucky...

In the same week that Porsche unveiled its own in-house developed electric Boxster E, one of the automaker’s longtime tuners, Ruf, announced plans for its own trials of a small fleet of electric Porsche 911 prototypes. Ruf is probably most widely recognized for its wild modified Porsches such...
