Rare 1966 Ford GT40 Crashed in Tennessee?(Jul 19, 2012)I know someone who owned one of the real GT40s would definitely never take it out for more than a small trip around the block. A major highway is no place for such a car.
Lexus to Launch LS F Sport Sedan(Jul 09, 2012)If it's only a half-step to the TMG, then why do it Lexus? All the way or no way, I say. These F Sport trims are a waste of time, engineering capability, and money.
Ugly as Sin Exotic Cars(Jul 09, 2012)This trim must be for the track only, because that bodywork wouldn't survive on America's pothole riddled streets.
CarBuzz Picks the Best of the Classics at Goodwood(Jul 04, 2012)You climb out of the small door with the bottom ending with the window sill. It's pretty much a half door. Allowed the engineers to save weight since this was a track car.
SRT Barracuda, Ram Truck and Small Roadster to join new Viper?(Jun 29, 2012)I like how everyone forgets the obvious upcoming model that has yet to be officially announced: the Dart SRT4. I'm expecting a real competitor to the GTI, Speed3, and Focus ST.
2013 Buick Verano Turbo Arrives with 250hp(Jun 13, 2012)Seems pretty impressive for a car of this size and at this price point. Also makes its bigger brother seems underpowered. Hopefully Buick will have a stronger powerplant in the 2013/2014 Regal GS to further distance itself.
2013 Opel Astra Sedan Revealed(Jun 06, 2012)Judging by the greenhouse, it already is the brand new Verano compact sedan.
Pony Car Icons, Part 2: Plymouth Barracuda(May 30, 2012)The intake that fits through the cutout on the hood is fitted directly to the carburetor and therefore the engine. When the engine is running, it vibrates and so does the intake in the hood cutout.
We’ll Take That as a 'No': Porsche Axes Entry-Level Model(May 14, 2012)Porsche doesn't want to dip down into the market with a cheaper, entry-level car. That could hurt their image of making world-class semi-exclusive sports cars, exotics, and now SUVs. The reason they can demand such high MSRPs is because of this image
2012 Dodge Challenger SRT-8 One-Off in Matte Black(May 11, 2012)Anybody hear about the future Chrysler 'Cuda being based on the 8C platform?? Supposedly will be much smaller than these monsters and will be more modern in appearance. Similar to the next gen Mustang.
De Tomaso Revival Isn’t Happening(May 10, 2012)Just sue the guy who lied to you all these months. It's not the government's responsibility to make everything right all the time. Think independently and own up to the fact that you took a risk taking this job on a hope and dream.
Latest 2015 Mustang Rendering is Considered Fairly Close(May 08, 2012)I can see why people get upset over a redesign of this magnitude. We're talking about changing the design on a car that brought performance to the masses. It kick-started a new generation of fun, attractive, and affordable cars geared towards youth.
Watch the NYPD Stop Traffic to Pull Over a Bicycle(May 01, 2012)It's seems unfair, but necessary. There are so many of bicycles in NYC and they're not easy to spot or hear if you're not looking out for them. They can cause all kinds of havoc to drivers and pedestrians alike if they don't adhere to the rules given
Watch the NYPD Stop Traffic to Pull Over a Bicycle(May 01, 2012)Lol the guy with the iPad was about to jaywalk and he stopped cuz the cop showed up. I'm guessing NYPD gives more tickets for that than most cities too.
Because Less is More: Volkswagen Launches Polo R(Apr 29, 2012)Why don't they sell the five-door in the States?? It would be the perfect Fit, Versa, Sonic, Fiesta, Yaris, Accent, competitor. That segment is nearly white-hot with current gas prices.
Get Ready for the Apocalypse: V8 Jeep Wrangler Recon Has Got Your Back(Apr 26, 2012)Don't know why anybody cares. If we're going to die because the entire earth gets ripped apart by itself or crazy weather or gets hit by a meteor the size of Texas, there's nothing anyone can do to change it. If nothing happens, then great.
Audi R8 e-tron Shocks on the Nurburgring(Apr 25, 2012)Zero rear visibility. Hope a back-up camera comes standard if that louvered window is production spec. The car seems just about ready since they're telling everyone what it is during development. I bet it'll be great but overshadowed by the 918.
It Ain’t Dead Just Yet: Lamborghini Still Considering Estoque Sedan(Apr 25, 2012)I think it would be BA for a transversely mounted V-10, however it wouldn't be practical or a very stellar performer like it ought to be. The wow factor would be HUGE though. In any case, that rear is so nice.
Lady Gaga Caught in Her New Audi R8(Apr 10, 2012)Speaking of dumb people in cool cars, I saw that Beiber has a Fisker Karma with a chrome paint job and fuchsia underglow. Douchebag.
Lady Gaga Caught in Her New Audi R8(Apr 10, 2012)@Aj: all we're saying is it doesn't have a clutch pedal, so technically a DCT is an automatic.
Stolen Luxury Cars Caught Leaving L.A. for Asia(Apr 10, 2012)@Brad: it's a little more complicated than just paying A LOT OF MONEY to ship a car or two overseas. There's U.S. Customs, there's regulations, a lot of red tape to go through.
Suzuki Has Won the Right to Use the GTI Moniker(Mar 23, 2012)Wish we did, I constantly hear good things about it from Top Gear UK mag. It's probably because Suzuki isn't very popular here in the U.S. however, with a car like this as gas prices climb, it would be a hot seller and put them on the map here.
Video: Eric Clapton’s Bespoke Ferrari 458 Italia Leaves London Showroom(Mar 23, 2012)I like THAT grille more than current Ferrari grille designs. The FF and new Berlinetta have hideous smiles. Other than that, it's a nasty looking car, and Clapton can obviously afford to go buy a genuine classic car instead of making a crappy new one
Ferrari 458 Italia in Rare Shade of Grigio Medio(Mar 23, 2012)It looks like a custom paint job. I like it with the red interior. The PB tan interior would looks more luxurious and less sporty, but it wouldn't match the color at all. Also this is my new wallpaper.
Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 Roll Off the Assembly Line(Mar 17, 2012)The entire front of the car is different between the two. The headlight designs are even different. But that bumper opening is the largest difference that I see. The fog light and their surrounds also have different shapes.
Spied: 2013 F33 BMW 4-Series Convertible(Mar 02, 2012)They should rename the 1 Series into the 2 Series, and keep the legendary 3 Series namesake. Plus it just sounds better than 4 Series.
The Packard Building Faces Demolition(Mar 02, 2012)How could they not turn this into something productive? Public housing...? I realize it would've required serious renovation, but still.
The Chinese Clone the Ford F-150(Feb 18, 2012)Typical. Companies stealing another's ideas behind the shield of the government that owns them. Just one reason why Communism is wrong.
The Chinese Clone the Ford F-150(Feb 18, 2012)Brandon, are you a troll? FoMoCo was founded in Detroit , MI. Where did Charlotte ever play a role in Ford's history?
Flying Car Concepts(Feb 13, 2012)It would be intense to switch fluidly from flying/hovering right into driving, especially in a combat situation.
Lexus RX Facelift and RX F Sport Leaked(Feb 13, 2012)It's a shame Lexus won't commit to a true F trim like M or AMG. This is basically an appearance package. It needs to be that and more.
Fisker is Running into Some Money Problems - Despite Government Loans(Feb 12, 2012)It's a silly dream for these to be more reasonable everyday cars until they establish infrastructure, ensure longevity of electric components is better than gas cars, begin training mechanics to better understand EVs, plus make electricity cheaper
