Unique of the Week: 1993 BMW M5 Wagon (May 04, 2013) If all 50 states agreed the federal gov. Would probably get involved like they did with health care, what a pain in the ass. I live in SC and we have no emission regulations. Great idea if people are responsible.
Unique of the Week: 1993 BMW M5 Wagon (May 04, 2013) I love me some wagons! In the last four years I've owned 3 wagons. Civic wagovan, Volvo V 70 T5 and Buick Roadmaster. Beats the hell out of a minivan
The Beauties of Amelia Island (May 03, 2013) Beautiful video! I saw Lee Holman, of the Holman and Moody crew.
Volvo Drops Plans for Upmarket Sedan (Apr 27, 2013) S90 and v90 possibly a c90 with performance tunes to combat with AMG and BMW's M division by Polestar. Using the V8 or V6 with turbos (keep it green) and sell for $50~$65k, depending on options

Unique of the Week: 1972 Ford Ranchero GT (Mar 31, 2013) vv or 428
Chevy to Offer Camaro Rolling Chassis (Mar 30, 2013) @ Colby, my comment was meant as a joke, for you to call me a biased moron and to have not checked my history of defending all manufacturers is ignorant. Don't be such a fan boy!
Chevy to Offer Camaro Rolling Chassis (Mar 30, 2013) Is this not how most Chevys end up anyways? They took all the work out of it except for taking the wheels off and sitting it up on blocks. Straight to the trailer park!
Toyota Racing to Goodwood (Mar 24, 2013) I miss my St165

Ford Considering New Unibody Ranger? (Feb 22, 2013) I am impressed that they use a separate bed/can design, it always bothered me about the Avalanche and Ridgelines.
Lykan Hypersport Interior Revealed (Feb 15, 2013) @hay, it's a fucking car, no one missed the point!
Lykan Hypersport Interior Revealed (Feb 15, 2013) @ Dan, that made me laugh! The Kardashians are probably killing for this car. And that has got to be the most obnoxious steering wheel ever.
Mercedes-Benz 300 SLC by GWA (Feb 14, 2013) I'm spent
Stacked Redhead Rides in Shelby (Jan 09, 2013) Girls that do not understand usually lack, not saying you do but typically

5 Embarrassing Family Cars (Dec 30, 2012) But you could get it supercharged!
Famous for Catching Fire: Pontiac Fiero (Dec 25, 2012) Had five Fieros and no fires.
Leno Drives a Classic Lamborghini (Tractor) (Dec 19, 2012) @ Carl, maybe your question should have been why would Lamborghini build a car?
Japanese Tuning Icons Part 2: Toyota Altezza/Lexus IS 300 (Dec 16, 2012) This is the non turbo(2jz GE)), no I.C. piping .
Unique of the Week: 1987 Bertone Fiat X1/9 (Dec 15, 2012) Safety standards had changed quite a bit between 1969 and 1972, look at the size and design of the bumpers on the muscle cars of that time
Japanese Tuning Icons Part 2: Mitsubishi 3000GT (Dec 14, 2012) @Jordan and Matt, the 276 hp was a "gentleman's agreement". Car company's agreed to keep power on a level playing field and focus on who could build the best car not just the fastest.
Japanese Tuning Icons Part 2: Mitsubishi 3000GT (Dec 14, 2012) My father was looking at buying one of these, it belonged to Chipper, the Atlanta Braves pitcher. As fast and sexy as they were, I recall maybe two out a dozen or so that didn't leak oil.
Ford Buys Back its Oldest Car (Dec 13, 2012) And Chevrolet then much like now is still a second rate car company
Japanese Tuning Icons Part 2: Toyota Celica (Dec 12, 2012) I saw a video of this on YouTube, ungodly is all I have to say
Rare 1965 Ford GT40 Up For Auction (Dec 08, 2012) Shelby is killing me!
The Shelby Cobra Lives On (Dec 08, 2012) Kirkham builds one of the two best. Factory five is a less expensive kit. A few of the guys I've know have had structural issues with the Factory five kits.
Buick to Revive the Grand National? (Nov 27, 2012) There was also the Riviera and Lesabere T Types of the late 80's and early 90's. I stand corrected about the Grand National.
Milan Abarth Builds an Insane Supercar (Nov 27, 2012) Jenni it is the same company owned by Fiat! Did you not read or understand?
Buick to Revive the Grand National? (Nov 26, 2012) Darth Vader's car
Buick to Revive the Grand National? (Nov 26, 2012) Buick used the Grand National and T Type in the mid 90's on their four door FWD Regals. Even if GM brings back the name(s) I'm not sure if they can carry the essence of what the GNX was and not a direct competitor for let's say an Infinity coupe.
Corvette-Powered Chevy Spark Rumbles the Earth (Nov 07, 2012) For $55k it better have cup holders!
Holman & Moody Mustang Commemorates Tour de France (Nov 06, 2012) Huh, Holman and Moody did nothing more than allow Ford to use their name on this car and approve of the design. Lee makes it very clear they do not tune f.i. cars. At best they will cut a cam!
DFA: Lada Driver Lucky to be Alive (Oct 31, 2012) It looks like the driver comes through the windshield at 0:19. It happens so quick it's hard to see but there were two people in the car. The passenger climbs out at the end.
Subaru BRZ STI to Pack 280 HP (Oct 23, 2012) Toyota is ousting the TRD designation due to unwanted criticism, 'turd'. They are suppose to be changing to the TMG (Toyota Motorsports Group) by 2014 not to be confused with the TMg R&D as they are separate entities.
2015 Mustang to Pack Turbo Four? (Oct 22, 2012) I applaud Ford for their new design language, the Taurus and Explorer are classy looking vehicles in my opinion. If Ford can pull enough of the Evos into the Mustang, tastefully, I think Ford will have a global hit.
Cosworth is Up For Sale (Oct 19, 2012) It was the XR4TI in the US. It used the same 2.3 turbo as the SVO Mustang, T Bird turbo coupe and Cougar XR7. Stock not very quick but had lots of potential.
FR-S/GT86 the First of Three New Toyota Sportscars (Oct 17, 2012) Hell, Toyota could make a decent 2 door, fwd by building on the Corolla platform.
FR-S/GT86 the First of Three New Toyota Sportscars (Oct 17, 2012) Toyota has enough fwd cars, give us something with AWD for the higher tier and mid engine for entry level sports cars. Between the already existing Yotas and Lexus, the basics are covered
Volvo Says Goodbye to the C30 (Oct 15, 2012) I have owned three in the last year.
Incredible Exotics Take Over Irvine (Oct 02, 2012) V left the hair remover on too long V
Twin-Turbo Gallardo Sets World Record Quarter-Mile (Oct 01, 2012) I took pics of this car without the rear fascia on it about three weeks ago
NFL Running Back Gets a Twin-Turbo Audi R8 (Sep 28, 2012) @ Tara, UR has built a reputation for modifying high end cars. The 2000 hp Lambo is still a work in progress that seems to be built with hopes and high expectations
Shelby 1000 Warps Time on Desert Romp (Sep 24, 2012) I'm with the intelligent lady on this one!

Fiat 500 Bellavista Design Concepts Ooze Italian Style (Sep 23, 2012) Looks better than the Mini
2,000hp Murcielago is World's Most Powerful Lambo (Sep 23, 2012) For you guys questioning why 2000 hp you need to grow a pair or go back to your knitting.
Shelby Introduces GT500 Super Snake (Sep 20, 2012) @Tin Everyone from the sixties and seventies who ever bought Magnum 500s, keystones or Cragars
Matt Farah Drives 700HP RENNtech CLS63 AMG (Sep 08, 2012) I think Renntech had upgraded a CLK- GTR that was pushing 1200 hp. The car was so damn quick it flipped upside down and killed the driver.
Matt Farah Drives 700HP RENNtech CLS63 AMG (Sep 08, 2012) I have always loved what Renntech does with MB. Drove a S600 and CL600 about 13 years ago and fell in love with them.
Bugatti-Besting 1226hp Cadillac CTS-V by Hennessey (Sep 07, 2012) And there are now four.

5 Culturally Offensive Car Dealership Ads (Aug 29, 2012) Super Don has man toe
Shelby's Legacy: Shelby Mustangs (Aug 28, 2012) Sam, they did use the 427. You could order just about any engine you wanted to. A couple of years ago there was a '67 gt500 with the 427 on eBay for sale. I think asking price was $600,000
Old Man Hits a Ferrari 4 Times (Aug 26, 2012) $30k?! What the hell is it painted with virgin manatee blood?
Underground Racing's Massive Twin-Turbo R8 GT V10 (Aug 24, 2012) Brandon, they are off of Tyvola behind the Hilton Hotel, past Foreign Cars Italia.
Britain Strikes Back: Trident Iceni to Debut (Aug 23, 2012) At 69 mpg and 200 miles per tank the fuel cell would be 3 gallons?
McLaren X-1 Concept is a One-Off Shocker (Aug 19, 2012) Activate the deflector shields, we're being attacked by the ugly stick. Damn we were too late!
Full-Scale '59 Aston DBR1 AirFix Kit is a Work of Genius (Aug 07, 2012) 1:1! If price was good I would park one in the garage, just to get looks from my neighbors
Coveted 1962 Ferrari 250 California up for Auction (Aug 07, 2012) Anyone else here from the Carolina's, where is this car?!
Weekly DFA: Ferrari 458 Spider Driver Runs Over NYPD Cop's Foot (Aug 05, 2012) Ok, not to over think this or anything but if the cop had any part of his foot ran over, he sure as hell would not be standing in a position to put a majority of his weight on the injured portion of his foot, right?
Least Boring Family Cars: Chevrolet Nomad (Jul 30, 2012) The Pinto sport wagon, Vega wagon and AMC had a two door wagon

Unearthed: 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT (Jul 28, 2012) Eat the Corvettes lunch. This is what killed the Fieros.
Unearthed: 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT (Jul 28, 2012) Carry over into the following year. With the increase of power and refinements to the handling the Fieros was a scheduled to be a fierce little car. However, when GM started testing the new Fieros thee was concern that this little rocket was going to
Unearthed: 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT (Jul 28, 2012) The prototype scheduled for 1989 was to use the dual quad 3.4 literV6 220 hp from the Lumina z34/ mote Carlo z34. Lotus had already improved on suspension in 1988, so that was to
Unearthed: 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT (Jul 28, 2012) Between myself and other family and friend, we have collectively owned five Fieros. Only one of which ever had a fire, due to a leaking oil pump.
Volvo Planning V40 Polestar Hot-Hatch (Jul 17, 2012) I loved watching the commercials when these first came out, not only hauls your family but also kills Mustangs

Burnt Clutch Burnouts (Jun 16, 2012) That was so funny, I couldn't stop laughing.
Not One, but Two Ford GT40s Up for Auction at Monterey (Jun 15, 2012) Love those 4dueces
Not One, but Two Ford GT40s Up for Auction at Monterey (Jun 15, 2012) As it was once (and originally said) "it's like being pushed by the hand of God"
Not One, but Two Ford GT40s Up for Auction at Monterey (Jun 15, 2012) They did make streetable versions of the Gt40. You could get it with the 289,302 and 427 depending on which mark
Record Auction Sales: Ferrari 250 (Jun 11, 2012) The Holman and Moody shop here in Charlotte had two of the 330 cars. There were 7 replicas built using a true 330 car for reference. All 7 cars used the 1959-1961(?) 330 Gt coupe chassis and running gear. There is still one in the shop :)
Italian Exotic Icons: Ferrari F40 (Jun 07, 2012) But much like the 250gto, M.B. 300sl's, x and k types, the F40 will always be a recognizable car not just by its looks 50 years from now.
Italian Exotic Icons: Ferrari F40 (Jun 07, 2012) I've seen 1 (one) of these and it was pure xtc!
Italian Exotic Icons: Ferrari F40 (Jun 07, 2012) The edgy styling that caught your eye to start with. If it were not for the 250gto why would Ferrari not build the F40, because evolution is unnecessary? I love modern cars of all kinds but it is the classics that really steal my heart!
Italian Exotic Icons: Ferrari F40 (Jun 07, 2012) @Ben, then why admire cars for their looks or performance? Theses are the core essence of what makes a car a great car. The thing about the automobile is that through evolution things will be trumped whether it is performance numbers, track times or
