    It's hard to believe it's been more than four years since Lamborghini first graced us with the Huracán, especially since the design remains as intoxicating as ever and, in Performante trim, you'll be hard pressed to find a faster car around a racetrack. Nevertheless, it appears Lamborghini is readying a subtle update to keep the Huracán looking and feeling fresh as it approaches the midway point in its life cycle. A prototype for an updated Huracán Spyder has been spotted and reveals many of the changes we can look forward to. The biggest changes, visually at least, will...

    This Ferrari-powered F1 replica is road-legal, production-bound

    Driving a real Formula 1 racer on the road isn't possible. That makes Zac Mihajlovic's homemade, road-legal F1 replica really something. Mihajlovic has documented the build process on Instagram, which reveals the car features an actual Ferrari V-12 engine. Specifically, the engine comes from an F12...

  • Toyota Supra dynamic debut at 2018 Goodwood Festival of Speed

    We've yet to see the new Toyota Supra debut in production form, but the company is already willing to admit the car will spawn a track-focused variant. The man behind the new Supra, chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, told Top Gear on Friday that such a car will mainly focus on stripping weight away from the regular car. "We’re already making a racing version so we know if you take out 100 kg (220 pounds) it’s a completely different car – you don’t even need any more power," he said. Power in the road car will come from a BMW-sourced engine, likely a 3.0-liter turbocharged...

    2 wrecked BMW M1 supercars become 1 piece of wall art

    When life gives you a wrecked BMW M1, don't make M1 lemonade...make art. BMW did not make many examples of its amazing M1 supercar. In fact, just 453 were built in total between 1978 and 1981. Two of those have now become one in an effort to spruce up one owner's amazing garage, according to...

  • Bugatti Chiron Sport
    Bugatti boss claims Chiron could hit 280 mph, but don't expect an attempt

    Koenigsegg set the industry ablaze when it used an owner's car to set a 277.9 mph top speed world record for street legal production cars. Since then, all eyes have been on a handful of rivals, including Bugatti, which held the production-car record for years. Now, the French supercar brand says...

  • 2019 Acura NSX
    Acura NSX stung by a pair of recalls

    Acura is reaching out to its NSX customers because the hybrid sports car has been hit with a pair of recall notices. One affects the brake lights while the other might result in a fuel leak.

    Christian von Koenigsegg brings the Regera to Jay Leno's Garage

He recently visited Jay Leno's Garage to talk about the Regera. Unveiled at the 2015...

  • Bugatti Divo

    Bugatti does things on a grand scale. Since 2005, the French automaker has shoehorned a massive 8.0-liter, quad-turbocharged W-16 engine into the rear end of its supercars. The latest and greatest machine to use this engine is the Divo hypercar, which is based on the Chiron. That duo might be the last cars to make use of this massive, mighty power plant. The realities of stricter emissions standards around the world will cause Bugatti to look in a new direction eventually, and Volkswagen's ultra-luxury brand won't build a new version of the W-16. That's according to a Monday report from...

  • 2016 Jaguar C-X75 from Spectre is for sale
    Here's how you can own a Jaguar C-X75

    It's certainly fun to pretend to be James Bond, a fantasy that can be accomplished with an old Bentley, a new Aston Martin, a simple tuxedo, or even a fancy Omega watch. It's a bit more difficult to play the villain. Until now, that is. Kaaimans International in the United Kingdom has one of the...

    SSC is keen to reclaim the record for the world's fastest production car and clock 300 mph in the process.

  • Audi PB18 e-tron concept
    Next Audi R8 will reportedly go electric

    Back in March, Audi R&D boss Peter Mertens dropped the bombshell news that the Audi Sport division didn't have any plans drawn up yet for a third-generation R8. It didn't mean Audi Sport was definitely going to axe the car after the current model's run, but it did leave the possibility on the...

    Spurred by Tesla, Koenigsegg aiming for 250 mph in 14 seconds

    Koenigsegg currently produces the world's fastest production car in the Agera RS, but the company isn't stopping there.

  • McLaren F1 GTR 25R

    McLaren built 106 examples of its iconic F1 supercar from 1993 to 1998. That includes 71 versions for the road, 28 for the racetrack, and seven prototypes. McLaren wants to make sure each of these cars remain in tip-top shape and is thoroughly documented. The new McLaren F1 Certification program has arrived to do just that. The company announced the launch of the program on Friday, and one car has already been certified. This is the first factory effort to authenticate F1s for their owners. If a McLaren F1 goes through the program and is shown to be an authentic road car or race car, the...

    The Lamborghini Huracán has 8 oil drain plugs

    The Lamborghini Huracán doesn't call for an average oil change. Then again, the Huracán isn't an average car, either. But, for DIYers, a new video from Royalty Exotic Cars shows off to change the Italian sports car's oil. It all begins with sourcing the oil filter, which sits in the...

  • Marcello Gandini talks about the origin of the name Countach
    This is how Lamborghini's Countach got its name, and it's not what you think

    It seems like most Lamborghini model names are associated with bullfighting. That's not true with all of Lamborghinis though, as the most famous example of moniker derivation lies with the Countach. Bertone designer Marcello Gandini is the man responsible for some all-time great automotive styling...
