CLS 63 AMG Shooting Brake by Spencer Hart (Jun 17, 2013) I love this!!!
Euro Flooding Has Ruined These Cars (Jun 17, 2013) Like the rings left on the side of a pint glass from each sip of Guinness.
Audi Comes In As #1 Brand For The Unfaithful (Jun 16, 2013) The grille sports four rings. Hint?
650 HP Audi Sport Quattro Coming to Frankfurt? (Jun 16, 2013) THREE PEDALS!!!!!!!!!
650 HP Audi Sport Quattro Coming to Frankfurt? (Jun 16, 2013) C-pillar reminds me of CTS. That's a good thing.
650 HP Audi Sport Quattro Coming to Frankfurt? (Jun 16, 2013) This is what Corrado would look like today had VW never scrapped it.
650 HP Audi Sport Quattro Coming to Frankfurt? (Jun 16, 2013) They should make it available with two or three engines, leaving the twin turbo V8 as the halo car.
Leno Drives 2013 Cars of the Year (Jun 15, 2013) Are you guys done with the denim chin joke? It's really tired.
In Appreciation of the Lamborghini Countach (Jun 15, 2013) It's very difficult to get both feet in that tiny footwell. Best done barefoot or in driving shoes.
Viper SRT Releases First Ever TV Ad, and Man is it Cool (Jun 15, 2013) Brought to you by Hallmark.
Best of E3 Car Game Trailers (Jun 13, 2013) GT5 was terrible. The various licenses and such made it feel like the DMV.
The Many Faces of the Pontiac Fiero (Jun 13, 2013) An unfortunate name for a car prone to fires. The later models with tge V6 were actually quite good. Make fun all you want, but a mid-engined car at that price was a pretty bold idea for the 1980s.
This is it: First Shots of 2015 Mustang Caught Testing (Jun 11, 2013) I think you just like saying "Gore-Tex"
Good Guys and their Godly Mods (Jun 11, 2013) I want to go to my wedding in a limousine that's being towed around on this truck.
Good Guys and their Godly Mods (Jun 11, 2013) Imagine getting rear-ended though? I would set it up so that the ramp drops under hard braking, so the driver behind you goes up the ramp instead of being beheaded.
Good Guys and their Godly Mods (Jun 11, 2013) Best T-Bird I've ever seen.
Golf R Spanks a Camaro V6 (Jun 11, 2013) No, Aaron. It only comes with a manual.
Golf R Spanks a Camaro V6 (Jun 11, 2013) I have to disagree, Mason. My GTI is a fantastic daily driver, and I can use it to embarass far more exotic cars on the track. Not a dragstrip, granted. But on a twisty track like Watkins Glen, stand by.
First New Alpine to Fight the 911 (Jun 10, 2013) This would look truly shocking on American roads.
All of These Ferraris are Fakes (Jun 10, 2013) This is based on an MR2? So you spend $80,000 on a car that can get whipped by any high school kid in a Civic? Brilliant.
All of These Ferraris are Fakes (Jun 10, 2013) Or you could tattoo "please look at me" to your butt and hang out in Manhattan with your legs tied behind your head if you're this desperate for attention. It's cheaper and looks better than these cars. Plus you get to meet lots of police.
All of These Ferraris are Fakes (Jun 10, 2013) This looks like a truly awesome car to drive. Why not just enjoy it without the Ferrari badging? Then you won't have to tell the whole giant stupid story every time someone asks you if it's a Ferrari.
All of These Ferraris are Fakes (Jun 10, 2013) Hey CarBuzz... Why not make it a game? Once a week, maybe? I'd play!
The New Toyota Corolla: Who Cares? (Jun 08, 2013) Is that a bison?
Murcielago Low Riding on PURs (Jun 06, 2013) How incredibly stupid! Why would you take a perfect supercar and then demolish its steering geometry, center of balance, and suspension travel? It's obviously not a performance-oriented driver.
Car Mod Atrocities That Will Make You Sick (Jun 06, 2013) That's hilarious!
Maserati Khamsin Visits Jay Leno (Jun 01, 2013) Wicked!
Classic JDM: Toyota 2000GT (May 31, 2013) I love the side-view mirror on the fender instead of the door.
Classic JDM: Toyota 2000GT (May 31, 2013) Gorgeous.
Top 5 Power Wagons (May 30, 2013) This. Yes.
Touring's Disco Volante Steals Show (May 28, 2013) Chick magnet? Sorry, bro. Cars only attract other car guys.
The Best of Villa d'Este 2013 (May 28, 2013) The Dubonnet Hispano was similarly pinched at the tail, but pulled off the effect much more successfully.
The Best of Villa d'Este 2013 (May 28, 2013) It looks like a troll crouching under a bush and covered in warm poo.
The Best of Villa d'Este 2013 (May 28, 2013) One of my all-time favorites, and certainly my favorite Jaguar ever.
TV's Viper Defender Up for Sale (May 27, 2013) This site needs a moderator to keep discussions on topic. The taunting has no place here.
Classic JDM: Nissan Fairlady Z (May 27, 2013) Agreed, Fakir. This was truly one of the top designs of its time. Surface tension!
Classic JDM: Nissan Fairlady Z (May 27, 2013) Yes. This.
Classic JDM: Nissan Fairlady Z (May 27, 2013) Supercool
Classic JDM: Nissan Fairlady Z (May 27, 2013) Didn't like this body style nearly as much as the earlier cars.
Classic JDM: Nissan Fairlady Z (May 27, 2013) It's a unique name, but I like it. Certainly better than the alphabet soup names so many manufacturers use. Seriously, McLaren MP4 12C? It sounds like a form at the DMV.
Audi A8 Owner has Anger Issues (May 26, 2013) I want to play golf with that guy.
TV's Viper Defender Up for Sale (May 26, 2013) You could buy a Viper and customize the body for that kind of money, and have enough left over for a new Corvette. I guess the seller doesn't need the money.
Cars and Coffee Boston (May 20, 2013) Oh please. Instaposer special from the beginning.
Fisker Karma the "New DeLorean"? (May 19, 2013) Is anyone going to build replacement batteries? If not, these will be very collectible bricks.
Lambos Visit Sant'Agata Bolognese (May 19, 2013) Swap it back. Please.
New Trailer Previews Gran Turismo 6 (May 17, 2013) GT5 was WORTHLESS!!! Licensing classes? It should have been called DMV5. Online racing? Where? All I could ever find was 12 year olds with microphones slamming their cars into mine for no reason. Waste of electrons.
Motoring TV: Pinks (May 16, 2013) To me, the funniest part of the show is watching how much the host is in love with his own arms. He's obsessed.
Subaru BRZ Tuned to 450 HP (May 14, 2013) Everything written here is true, and if you're not spooling up all the time, you're still getting the fuel mileage of a light car with a two liter. Brilliant.
Lambo Gallardo by Dallas Performance (May 14, 2013) I love that they chose a car with a manual for this tune. Hardcore.
Lamborghini Diablo SV by Office-K (May 14, 2013) Where does the license plate go?
Lamborghini Diablo SV by Office-K (May 14, 2013) Terrible wheels, yes. But that exhaust!
P1 Supercar Sunday 2013 (May 13, 2013) Of all the cars puctured here, this one is also least likely to break, and cheapest to fix if it does. Homeboy also has some serious wontons to drive a left-hand car out on British roads.
Citroen Mehari Celebrates 45 Years (May 13, 2013) Hopefully he'll use it to shoot the car.
Citroen Mehari Celebrates 45 Years (May 13, 2013) My soul hurts
Citroen Mehari Celebrates 45 Years (May 13, 2013) Somebody please make it go away.
P1 Supercar Sunday 2013 (May 13, 2013) All the other cars can go home now.
P1 Supercar Sunday 2013 (May 13, 2013) Fwiw, I had a Roush Mustang out at Watkins Glen three weeks ago, and it destroyed every exotic there but for a Nissan GTR, which was being piloted by an excellent driver.
P1 Supercar Sunday 2013 (May 13, 2013) Still love these.
Jaguar F-Type Coupe Snapped (May 12, 2013) I just don't understand why they go through the trouble of designing a new car from the ground up and then style it so that it's almost indistinguishable from the other cars in the lineup (in this case XK).
Lamborghini Egoista Concept Unveiled (May 12, 2013) Agreed, Will. They just seem to take existing cars, then sharpen them into points and slice a hundred slits and gills into them. It's getting a bit silly.
Jaguar F-Type Coupe Snapped (May 11, 2013) I still don't understand why this car feels the need to exist.
Cars and Coffee Oklahoma City (May 11, 2013) Posers of the world, unite!
Lambo Veneno Starts its Engine (May 10, 2013) I'd feel safer driving that car on a track than into the back of that truck.
5 Eighties American Luxury Blunders (May 10, 2013) I like this one.
5 Eighties American Luxury Blunders (May 10, 2013) This was a decent car, and the SC version was actually quite good.
Dead-End Technologies: Stout Scarab (May 07, 2013) Glorious! I wish modern designers would take such risks.
Chevy Reveals Silverado High Country (May 06, 2013) Wow. A truck.
VW May Still Build BlueSport Roadster (May 05, 2013) How can it compete with BRZ/FRS when it's a convertible? Good luck getting onto a racetrack with a ragtop.
VW Scirocco Million Edition Revealed (May 05, 2013) It must be a slow news day when a sticker package makes CarBuzz.
Is the Corvette Stingray Too Heavy? (May 04, 2013) What does that matter when a 300 lb driver gets in?
Porsche Reveals New 911 Turbo (May 03, 2013) Active engine mounts? Wow!
Top 5 Shanghai Unknowns (Apr 25, 2013) Is the girl in the background trying to fight that guy?
A Watch Worthy of LaFerrari (Apr 24, 2013) Gorgeous!
Smart Producing ForJeremy Edition (Apr 24, 2013) Not for Jeremy Clarkson?
Smart Producing ForJeremy Edition (Apr 24, 2013) Oh Douglas, I wish there was a "like" button for that comment.
Saleen Reveals 351 Prototype (Apr 24, 2013) Track rats buy Roush Drag kings buy Shelby Posers buy Saleen
Maserati: EVs are "Nonsense" (Apr 23, 2013) Then they should let one of their cars race a Tesla S on a dragstrip. No nonsense.
Saleen Reveals 351 Prototype (Apr 23, 2013) @Brittany: S7 was a beast and still is, you're right. Their Mustangs are guido cruisers.
F-Type Gunning for 911 (Apr 23, 2013) Let's see how it looks in sixty years. Right now it's an upstart, a poser, and it's hard to distinguish from an XK. This car us nonsense.
F-Type Gunning for 911 (Apr 23, 2013) Convertible only? Auto only? Looks like Jag is trying to compete with the Chrysler Sebring.
Toyota Teases New 4Runner (Apr 23, 2013) A truck. Wow.
Saleen Reveals 351 Prototype (Apr 23, 2013) Because being a convertible disqualifies it from the majority of track events and hi performance driving schools. That's why. Saleen builds poser cars.
Supercars at Top Marques Monaco (Apr 23, 2013) Suzuki Samurai?
Cars and Coffee Irvine April Meet (Apr 22, 2013) Whoa!!!
Cars and Coffee Irvine April Meet (Apr 22, 2013) True unicorn
Cars and Coffee Irvine April Meet (Apr 22, 2013) Mosler?
Expensive Failures: DeLorean DMC-12 (Apr 20, 2013) There's got to be a better powerplant that would fit. It would make a cool restomod since it has no future as a real collectible.
Mazzanti Evantra Debuts in Monaco (Apr 20, 2013) "This is the coolest interior ever" Me, in 1987
Mazzanti Evantra Debuts in Monaco (Apr 20, 2013) Come at me bro!
Jaguar Delivers 1st F-Types in Style (Apr 20, 2013) And that's a late E-Type, not nearly as pretty as the earlier cars.
Jaguar F-Type Gets its Review On (Apr 20, 2013) Another boring car with another boring transmission from another boring company. It looks just like the XK. Why did they even bother to build it?
Italdesign Parcour Hits the Track (Apr 20, 2013) Carlton is right about the Pantera resemblance. I love that even with 22 inch wherls they let it have some tire height.
Jaguar Delivers 1st F-Types in Style (Apr 20, 2013) They had to put on a spectacle like this to drum up interest in yet another boring car. It doesn't even look that different from the current XK. What a waste.
Expensive Failures: Rolls-Royce Camargue (Apr 17, 2013) I don't hate this car. Had they ignored the critics and kept at it, they'd have been twenty years ahead of the Bentley Continental GT.
McLaren 12C Destroys 458 on the Strip (Apr 15, 2013) Can they give it a better name? MP4 12C K15 24T R is too clumsy.
Next Golf R to Pack 300HP? (Apr 15, 2013) It's about time considering the price premium over the GTI.
Brabus at 2013 Techno Classica Essen (Apr 14, 2013) A two year warranty on a restored classic? Brilliant!
"Rush" Trailer 2 Races In (Apr 14, 2013) This movie comes out in September? I'm going to the theater right now to stand in line. Someone bring me coffee please?
Harris Drives SLS Electric Drive (Apr 13, 2013) I love the grille treatment
Student Pens Lambo Ganador Concept (Apr 13, 2013) Dear Lamborghini, Please build this car. Sincerely, Some shnook who can't afford one.
