Lambo Murcielago Crashes at Gumball (May 22, 2013) This makes me legitimately sad. I hate to see any car wrecked, but especially not an SV, which is definitely one of my favorite cars.
19 Meanest Bad Ass Looking Cars (May 21, 2013) You saw one in person??? Freaking lucky. This is my favorite by far.
24 Incredible Headlight Designs (May 16, 2013) My favorite.
Top 5 Convertibles That Never Were (Apr 14, 2013) Marauder is way too cool of a name to be put on a Mercury. It belongs on a military vehicle, like...say, The Marauder.
10 Charged in Supercar Crash (Mar 23, 2013) I think it might have meant that there were 12 cars, but 10 drivers charged.
Top 5 Pininfarina Supercars (Mar 23, 2013) It looks like a Vector.
The General Lee Goes Drifting (Mar 23, 2013) The 80's version was absolutely fantastic.
What the Alfa 4C Could Have Been (Mar 14, 2013) That is so much better than the real 4C. If I had the means, I would commission someone to make this for me.
2013 World Car of the Year Shortlist (Mar 14, 2013) The new Mazda 6 is legit. Stop hating.
Henrik Fisker Quits Fisker (Mar 14, 2013) That looks fantastic. Anybody remember the Latigo and Tramonto? Those were nice cars.
LaFerrari in Red, Yellow or Black (Mar 12, 2013) Wow, and what's wrong with GT40's and Stingrays? Anyway, how is that a relevant point to say to someone who think that a McLaren is better than a Ferrari? I for one would much rather own or even look at a P1 than a LaFerrari.
Top 5 Sportscars in Geneva (Mar 08, 2013) I'm not a big fan of it. The 8C was fantastic, but this looks like a slightly disproportionate version of that. It's good, and I'm sure it will be amazingly fun, but it doesn't look great.
Top 5 Geneva Supercars (Mar 08, 2013) 2 things. 1: Is this the successor for the Enzo? 2: It is absolutely hideous to look at. If it is the successor, I'm incredibly disappointed in Ferrari.
Top 5 Porsche Supercars (Mar 03, 2013) *decade older
Top 5 Porsche Supercars (Mar 03, 2013) How is this down almost 100 horsepower to the GT1, and a de are older, yet has a higher top speed and faster 0-60? Is it because of the GT1's aerodynamics?
Audi Stages RS4 Avant Paintball War (Feb 27, 2013) Why can't wars be fought this way?
Maserati Updates GranTurismo MC Stradale (Feb 27, 2013) I love the hood scoop, but not the wheels so much. However, as long as it still makes the same noise, I'd buy it in half a heartbeat.
5 Ford Supercar Concepts (Feb 27, 2013) Hot Wheels car. Just sayin'.
Nissan GT-R by SR Auto Group (Feb 24, 2013) Looks gorgeous, just like every other GTR I've ever seen, except for the stupid fast and furious one or whatever.
Chevrolet SS Not Coming to Canada, Israel (Feb 24, 2013) First car I've seen where the license plate improves the looks. Not to say that the car is ugly, just that front plastic stripe.
This Is The 2014 Jeep Cherokee (Feb 24, 2013) Can we please just have the last Cherokee SRT8 forever?
5 Coachbuilt Alfa Romeo Concepts (Feb 24, 2013) I understand the appeal of this car, but its just so ugly and boring-looking.
Hennessey Prepares to Tune the Stingray (Feb 24, 2013) Does this look like a type of bat mobile to anyone else?
Mercedes-Benz 300 SLC by GWA (Feb 17, 2013) Everything is perfect except for the stupid logo on the steering wheel.
Unique of the Week: 1969 Fiat 850 Shellette (Feb 10, 2013) I'm pretty sure that if Fiat sells the 500, the 500L, and the 500 Abarth, that makes 3 models.
DRT: RENNtech E63 AMG vs. Tesla Model S (Feb 09, 2013) These things are absolutely gorgeous in person. I saw a blacked-out model s yesterday, and it was fantastic.
5 Unnecessary BMWs (Feb 09, 2013) That small grille behind the front wheel is absolutely horrid in every way. For that matter, so is the whole car.
European Luxury Sedans: Maserati Quattroporte (Feb 02, 2013) If the Maserati badge wasn't there, I'd say it was a new Mercedes E-Class.
European Luxury Sedans: Maserati Quattroporte (Feb 02, 2013) This looks like simply a nice place to sit, and enjoy the rest of the car.
European Luxury Sedans: Maserati Quattroporte (Feb 02, 2013) This rear is much better than the new one in my opinion.
Top 5 1000-HP Supercars (Jan 26, 2013) I thought the Tuatara project was cancelled?
Jaguar XJ220 by Overdrive (Jan 26, 2013) I'll be the devils advocate here and back up Wyatt. Yes, it is absolutely fantastic as is. Yes, it can do over 200 mph. However, think what it would do with even 50 more horsepower. I don't agree with the 150 hp boost, though.
Jaguar XJ220 by Overdrive (Jan 26, 2013) That rear is pure menace.
Corvette ZR1 by RK Design (Jan 26, 2013) I'd take a C6 Z06 over this in a heartbeat.
This is the GT-R in 'Fast & Furious 6' (Jan 26, 2013) This car, the 2JZ engine, and the Maserati V8 are the best sounds in my opinion. There are many, many others very close, but these have just the slightest edge above the others.
BMW Driver Flees Poland for Belarus in 20 Seconds (Jan 24, 2013) That was one of the most useless videos I've ever seen.
Noble M600 CarbonSport Debuts at Autosport (Jan 14, 2013) @Lee You absolutely nailed it.
Noble M600 CarbonSport Debuts at Autosport (Jan 14, 2013) I've alway loved Noble, especially this and the M12. They are just pure and simple driver's cars.
Top 5 Interiors by Carlex Design (Jan 14, 2013) I would definitely rock that.
5 Top Tuned 458 Italias (Dec 23, 2012) Back looks like a Huayra, is it just me?
Cars That Attract Women: Volvo C70 (Dec 11, 2012) He's just on his way to work.
Cars That Attract Women: Ford SVT Raptor (Dec 11, 2012) He's just on his way to work.
Cars That Attract Women: Bentley Mulsanne (Dec 11, 2012) I love the whole 6 and 3/4 liter deal with the engine. It's just so odd and cool.
Cars That Attract Women: Volvo C70 (Dec 11, 2012) I love the whole 6 and 3/4 liter deal with the engine. It's just so odd and cool.
Turbocharging Pioneers: Ferrari 288 GTO (Nov 24, 2012) People are going to hate me for this, but I think this and the 575 are the greatest looking Ferrari's ever.
5 Black Bison Benzes (Nov 24, 2012) This is the best one, followed closely by the orange CLS.
PUR Wheels Resole the Murcielago (Nov 22, 2012) I'm not sure if I like the wheel itself, but I am sure that the color is terrible, and awful, and should be shot at dawn.
5 Epic Maserati Quattroportes (Nov 20, 2012) It's just an uglier, stretched version of the Ferrari FF.
Volvo Wagon Given Corvette V8 Power (Nov 10, 2012) Lol "to punish and enslave."
Student Envisions a Future Lamborghini (Oct 18, 2012) It is a Hot Wheel. It just is.
Twin Turbo Gallardo Battles AMS GT-R (Oct 03, 2012) I wish my corolla could go 0-60 in 6.8.
Non-Italian Exotics: SRT Viper (Sep 26, 2012) I've just realized how identical the rear is to the Maserati Granturismo MC. And that is fantastic, since both cars are absolutely stunning.
Urus Sounds Like a Real Lambo (Sep 18, 2012) Land Rover Evoque mixed with Ferrari FF. Yet it still looks unmistakably like a Lamborghini. I'm not sure how I feel about it.
1,350hp Twin-Turbo Ferrari Scuderia by Underground Racing (Sep 13, 2012) When I saw the title of this post, my jaw literally dropped. 1,350 horsepower from a frickin Ferrari?!?! Underground is either extremely brave or monumentally retarded to build this.
Track Day Icons: Caparo T1 (Sep 04, 2012) Makes it look like a transformer's face.
2014 Corvette Hits the Rendered Road (Aug 19, 2012) It looks good, but way too similar to the new ferrari's (458, F12).
McLaren X-1 Concept is a One-Off Shocker (Aug 19, 2012) I'll tell you exactly what this is. It is a ski boat that's decided to be a car.
Boutique Supercars: Noble M600 (Aug 11, 2012) This is probably my favorite supercar right now. I love the looks, the sound, the name, everything.
Ferrari 575 Aims for 232 MPH at Bonneville (Aug 09, 2012) This has always been one of my favorite looking Ferrari's, but for reason undiscovered to science.
Volkswagen Beetle is America's Most Efficient Convertible (Aug 09, 2012) It is almost as bad of a name as mp4-12c though. It's terrible. E-bugster (shudder).
Evo Checks Out the Aston Martin Vanquish on a Frozen Swedish Lake (Aug 04, 2012) I heard it was to be 0-60 in 3.8 and top speed of 195. Interesting.
Purple Chrome Mercedes SL65 Looking Zazzy on ADV1 Wheels (Aug 04, 2012) The thing is way too low and way too shiny. I would just make it the same purple, but without chrome.
Biggest Automotive Missteps: Pontiac Aztek (Jul 20, 2012) @Alex I'm assuming you mean that's the total now, right?
Murcielago SV is SR Auto’s ‘White-Winged Champion’ (Jul 20, 2012) Looks like the thing has four wheel steering.
Mansory Decks Out Lamborghini Aventador in Carbonado (Jul 18, 2012) Is not this a rendering? It doesn't look real.
Honda Developing Non-Hybrid NSX? (Jul 17, 2012) And the first NSX, of course.
Honda Developing Non-Hybrid NSX? (Jul 17, 2012) I'd say the best Honda cars were the S2000 and the Civic Si of last generation.
Ginetta Founders Coming Back with Dare Sportscar (Jul 15, 2012) It's a Z4 corvette.
Wheelsandmore Touches Up the Maserati MC Stradale (Jul 14, 2012) Quattroporte! Awesome.
Watch the Porsche 911 Carrera S and 911 GT3 Cup Car at the Goodwood Hill (Jul 07, 2012) I spy the Renault back there.
DRT: 1,500hp Lambo Gallardo vs. 1,000hp Nissan GT-R (Jul 07, 2012) I think that if the Lamborghini had 1100 hp, not 1500, both cars would be almost identical.
Year of the Aventador at California Speedway (Jul 07, 2012) I think tat my favorite Lamborghini will forever be either the Murcielago SV(too lazy to type out the whole thing), or the Miura SV.
Aston Martin Vanquish Launched in London at Exclusive Event (Jul 07, 2012) The thumbnail at the end of the article makes it look really bad. Go check it out.
Aston Martin Vanquish Launched in London at Exclusive Event (Jul 07, 2012) @Roger Excluding the One-77 of course.
Corvette Z06 Looks Sharp on New Set of D2Forged Wheels (Jul 07, 2012) Are these the ZR1 wheels? They look smashingly similar!
PYSpeed puts Ferrari 458 Italia on Arkym Wheels (Jul 07, 2012) Black wheels are just best for this car, they really make it.
Wald Gives the Prius an Attitude (Jul 07, 2012) I think that it looks much better than stock, but that's like comparing a knife wound to a .50 cal entry point.
Ferrari 458 Italia by Graf Weckerle (Jul 05, 2012) It would be much better if they were black. Or the stock wheels.
Russian Drifting Fails (Jul 05, 2012) That first paragraph legitimately made my die of laughter. I'm dead now.
Roadside Assistance: The Russian Way (Jul 05, 2012) That just freaking made my day.
Saleen S7 Gets Some New Rims (Jul 05, 2012) I have to say, this and the jag XJ220 S are my favorite supercars ever. And funny enough, both are over 10 years old.
CarBuzz Brings You The Best of The Supercars at Goodwood (Jul 03, 2012) I actually think this looks amazing, excluding the stupid circles on either side of the badge.
MP4-12C Spider Pops its Top (Jul 03, 2012) Is it just me, or does this look a lot like the 918 Spider?
SRT Barracuda, Ram Truck and Small Roadster to join new Viper? (Jun 29, 2012) Question: Was the Rumblebee an SRT10?
SRT Barracuda, Ram Truck and Small Roadster to join new Viper? (Jun 29, 2012) This is one of the worst looking things ever, if not the worst. I absolutely hate this, and I want to never, ever have to lay eyes on it ever again.
SRT Barracuda, Ram Truck and Small Roadster to join new Viper? (Jun 29, 2012) Let's see an new Rumblebee. That would be legit.
Japanese Tuner Icons: Nissan 240SX (Jun 27, 2012) @Patrick Amen man. Also, why did they pick this particular one (which looks like its about to fall apart) to represent the 240?
Japanese Tuner Icons: Nissan 240SX (Jun 27, 2012) I always wanted either this, a supra, or a 300zx tt. Any of them would be amazing to own.
Ultra-Rare Lamborghini Reventon Roadster Caught on Camera (Jun 27, 2012) I'll have the Reventon, sell it, buy myself either a Diablo SV or a Jag XJ220 S.
Weekly DFA: Dumb Schmuck Crashes His Corvette (Jun 27, 2012) Gotta love the controversy. Except for the fact that I have no idea why controversy exists about this. I mean, it's almost universally understood that the Z06 is a fantastic car. What's to argue about? By the way, I didn't even bother reading the
Lambo Aventador and Widebody Porsches Meet up in Japan’s Mountains (Jun 27, 2012) I loved the wheels on the Porsche GT3. And I wanna know about the Datsun.
Mysterious Lexus LFA Sets the Nurburgring Alight (Jun 27, 2012) I don't think the problem is with the height, it's that they're too far to the sides. It would be really cool to have them under the number plate to the right and left, in the blue section.
One-Off 205hp Mazda MX-5 GT Concept Heading to Goodwood (Jun 27, 2012) I love the MX5, but why doesn't someone put around 300 hp in it? Yes, it's fine the way it is, but why not try it out with a higher power output?
Nissan LEAF Going for High-Speed Reverse Record at Goodwood (Jun 27, 2012) Could anyone give less of a crap than I do?
Japanese Tuner Icons: Toyota Supra (Jun 27, 2012) I remember there was this YouTube video of a supra that looked stock, but had 1000 horsepower. The noise that car made was the best thing I have ever heard. It was absolutely perfect. I have no higher praise.
Weekend Celebration: The 20th Birthday of the Jaguar XJ220 (Jun 24, 2012) Is this the S version? I forgot how to tell. But either way, the XJ220 S is extremely close to my favorite car ever.
Tedious Thursdays Equals Drag Strip Action from Russia (Jun 22, 2012) There was no way the CLS wasn't going to win. I mean, it has more power, less weight, and is more aerodynamic than the S-class. Again, why even put these two together?
Tedious Thursdays Equals Drag Strip Action from Russia (Jun 22, 2012) Why are these cars even competing? I mean, a 300 hp advantage could make a S-class beat a GTR. If the GTR and 911 are essentially equal stock, how would the GTR stand a chance against the Porsche?? But, in the GTR's defense, it went remarkably well.
Epic B-List Celebrity Car Crashes (Jun 16, 2012) @kallendrix That's exactly what I thought
Audi RS6 Avant Given Over 750hp by MTM (Jun 16, 2012) Bring these to the States!!! Please!
