  • Ferrari F40 LM at Goodwood Members Meeting

    They say meeting your heroes in person usually ends in disappointment. We'd say that can't happen if said hero is the Ferrari F40. Chris Wilson, the driver of this Ferrari F40 LM—a racing variant—proves the F40 is all it was ever cracked up to be. That is, raw, exhilarating, and a little scary, too. Wilson participated in the 75th Goodwood Members Meeting, where owners of pretty spectacular cars not only put their cars on display but also drive them hard around the 2.4-mile road course. As you can see in this video, Wilson proved that the F40 continues to earn its poster car...

    Italian firm unveils bizarre supercar complete with built-in fish tank

    As proof positive that not every supercar originating from Italy is a masterpiece of design, behold the oddball Asfané Charlotte Roadster from Frangivento. It’s an electric supercar claimed to be capable of 0-60 mph acceleration in under 3.0 seconds, but the car’s real claim to...

  • Koenigsegg Agera RS Prototype spotted at a supercar event in Europe
    Koenigsegg Agera RS Prototype makes beautiful noise at a supercar event

    Koenigsegg is in the business of building technical wonders. One of the latest examples of that is the Agera RS. It is motivated by a 5.0-liter V-8 engine aided by a pair of turbochargers that all team up to produce 1,360 horsepower. Koenigsegg will build just 25 examples of the Agera RS, so it's...

  • This Aston Martin Vulcan attacks a hill climb event with big smokey burnouts
    Watch an Aston Martin Vulcan lay down a big burnout as it attacks a hill climb

    As you know, we love hill climb events. They allow a driver to extract every inch of performance out of a given machine, and the cars that participate are typically high-strung machines with drivers who may or may not be on full attack. Occasionally, you find something very special running up the...

  • Acura NSX EV concept, 2016 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb
    Acura mulls electric power for next NSX

    Honda is considering a pure electric powertrain for its next-generation Acura NSX. Recall, the automaker entered a pure electric version of its current NSX in the 2016 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. Though a concept, Honda R&D boss Sekino Yosuke has revealed to Autocar that the...

  • Jamie Foxx and his golden Bugatti Veyron
    Jamie Foxx turned his Bugatti Veyron gold

    Lifestyles of the rich and the famous. We wouldn't know about it, but Jamie Foxx exhibits the exact kind of behavior we expect. Case in point: he's turned his Bugatti Veyron into rolling gold. Foxx Instagrammed a photo of himself standing next to his all-gold supercar and it really is all gold...

  • Bugatti Chiron hill climb run

    The Bugatti Chiron houses 16 cylinders and four turbochargers. Let that sink in for a moment. Now, after contemplating that, it gives purpose to this video: the Chiron is really loud. It's in your face, the turbos are unapologetic, and the car doesn't care to keep its ego in check. The 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W-16 make for quite a soundtrack when the Chiron is asked to run a hill climb. Thankfully, this video allows viewers to experience such a situation, since many of us will likely never have the chance to perform a hill climb in a Chiron of our own. Heck most of us will be lucky to...

  • 2016 Dodge Viper ACR
    Dodge Viper ACR to attempt ‘Ring record in July–thanks to fans

    At the start of the year, we learned that Dodge Viper fans were raising funds to see the car make one final attempt at the Nürburgring production car record before being discontinued. In case you’ve forgotten, the Viper will be no more after the 2017 model year. A crowdfunding initiative...

  • Supercar meetup with Pagani, Ferrari, McLaren cars
    Supercar gathering gives new meaning to the phrase 'car meet'

    We're all familiar with what a car meet is. Maybe a handful of friends or a small community get together with their cars and hang out somewhere local. That's all fine and dandy—we're all car people here, after all—but this video shows a very different kind of car meet. We say different...

    Aston Martin CEO: mid-engine supercar coming in 2020

    As part of its Second Century business plan, Aston Martin will introduce seven standalone cars over seven years. The first of these new cars was the DB11 that arrived in 2016. It will be followed by a redesigned Vantage in 2017, a redesigned Vanquish in 2018, and the DBX SUV in 2019. It was...

    Aston Martin Valkyrie seats will be custom tailored for each buyer

    Luxury and performance have long gone hand in hand with many automakers, but with today's incredible technology, some companies are looking for ways to take things a step or two or ten further. Take this for example: Aston Martin plans to produce custom-tailored seats for each Valkyrie hypercar...

    Thousands applied, but ultimately, only 500 individuals have so far been selected to have a Ford GT built. (A second round of applications will be announced at a later date, though.) Once chosen, each and every soon-to-be owner gets a Ford GT Order Kit to help decide how to outfit their car. John...

  • 2017 Ford GT delivered to Jack Roush

    Jack Roush on Friday took delivery of a 2017 Ford GT. The gunmetal gray example wears white racing stripes and is the 15th car in the series. Incidentally, a previous-generation Ford GT Roush took delivery of 2005 was also the 15th car in the series. In the case of the modern GT, Ford Chairman Bill Ford Jr. got the first example off the line while the second went to ex-Ford CEO Mark Fields. Jay Leno was also among the first few people in the world to take delivery of the stunning supercar. With his deep ties to Ford, it’s hardly a surprise Roush is also in this group. He’s the...

  • McLaren F1 GTR Longtail at Spa
    McLaren F1 GTR Longtail stretches its legs at Spa-Francorchamps

    The 1990s birthed some pretty spectacular cars. It was a unique time, too. Hybrid powertrains were still the thing of econo cars like the Prius, which meant big power numbers came exclusively from large-displacement engines or lots of forced induction. The McLaren F1 employed the former—a...

  • Dubuc Tomahawk
    800-hp Tomahawk electric supercar may enter production in 2018

    Canada is home to production of some devilishly fast cars—notably the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and Ford GT—but a homegrown supercar may see the light of day next year. It's called the Tomahawk by Dubuc Motors. Based in Québec. Dubuc first announced its intentions to build...

    Yellow Lamborghini Centenario marks the 3rd of 4 cars for US market

    A vessel somewhere in the United States must have arrived carrying some very precious cargo because, within a week, three of the four Lamborghini Centenarios destined for the U.S. have arrived stateside.

    McLaren offers loaner engines for F1 owners

    When you're getting your vehicle serviced, you may have to say goodbye to it for a few days. If that's the case, we hope you have the fortune of receiving a loaner vehicle from the dealership.

  • Second US-spec Lamborghini Centenario

    Lamborghini Paramus of New Jersey has taken delivery of a very special Lambo. Though it may not be number one, it's number two of just four Lamborghini Centenarios destined for the United States. The New Jersey-based Lamborghini dealership posted photos of the Centenario to its official Instagram account, which shows the car's unveiling and a couple of glamor shots for good measure. After all, you have to get those likes on social media and the Centenario is certainly a crowd pleaser. Other than the photos, additional information—such as the car's owner and final destination—is...

    McLaren P1 LM sets new street-legal Nürburgring record

    Step aside, Lamborghini Huracán Performante. Even the track-only Nio EP9 electric supercar cannot be spared from the McLaren P1 LM: the new king of the Nürburgring, as far as street-legal cars are concerned. The McLaren P1 LM, a road-going version of the P1 GTR track car, clocked a...
