If you’re keen to add a little sport to your 2013 Accord Coupe, Honda is now offering an upgrade package for the V-6 model that it has developed with its Honda Performance Development (HPD) motorsport division. The package is based on a kit previewed at the 2012 SEMA Show and is grouped under the automaker’s Honda Factory Performance...
The 2015 Lexus RC F, the coupe version of the Lexus IS with F performance upgrades, has been spied testing on the Nordschleife and on German city streets. What will the high-performance Lexus coupe be capable of? Porsche's upcoming 991 upgrade to the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet is coming, and we have spy shots of it, too, showing the car in testing...
Lexus' LF-CC Coupe Concept, shown at the 2012 Paris Auto Show, was a brilliant exercise in design and proportion--but it was clearly concept-only, despite hints that it might presage a production model. This appears to be that production model, the 2015 Lexus RC F. The latest images show the car testing on the Nordschleife. Earlier shots showed...
A tragic accident on Sunday saw motorcycle land speed record holder Bill Warner suffer a high speed crash that took his life. Warner, 44, was attempting to hit 300 mph on a modified Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle when he lost control and crashed at a speed exceeding 285 mph. The crash took place on a runway at the former Loring Air Force Base in...
With nimble handling, quick acceleration, and sharp new looks, even the base 991 Porsche 911 is a sports car aficionado's joy. We fully expect the 2014 911 Turbo S to border on mind-blowing. The coupe version of the 2014 911 Turbo S was recently revealed alongside its standard (non-S) Turbo counterpart. The cabrio version of the next 911 Turbo...
A fleet of 11 supercars, which included two Bugatti Veyrons, have sold at auction for just 3.1 million euros (approximately $4.06 million). The cars originally belonged to Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, the son of Equatorial Guinea President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, but were seized by French authorities during a 2011 investigation over the...
In 2009, Ford unleashed on the market a version of its humble Focus hatchback powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter straight-five good for 300 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque. Oh, and all of that was channeled through the front wheels only. Sadly, this beast, known as the Focus RS, was based on the version of the Focus sold outside the U.S...
Nissan has unveiled a new special edition GT-R sports car that will be limited to just 100 units for worldwide consumption. The new special edition is the 2014 Nissan GT-R Midnight Opal, which derives its name from the unique Midnight Opal color scheme applied to its exterior. The paint is applied with each coat carefully applied by hand...
Following May’s sad announcement from Ford that it will be ending production in Australia in 2016, and in the process seal the fate of the local Falcon sedan as well as its ute and SUV spinoffs, reports have emerged claiming the FPV performance brand will be disbanded even earlier. FPV is the official tuner to the Ford Motor Company [NYSE:F]...
Rolls-Royce is preparing a minor facelift for its Ghost sedan and we now have spy shots of a prototype for the updated car. It is expected to go on sale towards the end of the year, making it a 2014 model. Given the lengthy lifespan of your typical Rolls-Royce, it’s not unusual to see frequent yet minor updates implemented. In fact, the...
While the wily trio of codgers at Top Gear may not always be the best source of purely factual information, their branded website is hopefully more reliable--because it's talking about the 2014 BMW M4's focus on lightness. Lightness is the primary ingredient missing from the last M3 coupe, which would have nearly tied a game of teeter-totter with...
A lot of racing games have offered historic Formula 1 race cars, especially those of the legendary 1980s, but Codemasters aims to bring its own spin to the action with a full grid of 1990s F1 cars driven by Alain Prost, David Coulthard, Jacques Villeneuve, Eddie Irvine, and more. You'll also get to race the modern classic F1 cars on F1 tracks no...
We've landed firmly on the side of the technologists when it comes to the latest generation of the Porsche 911, including the dual-clutch-only GT3. But that doesn't mean we don't appreciate a good classic sports car experience. In fact, we treasure our time behind the wheels of cars like the 1988 911 Carrera Club Sport. But owning an older sports...
Peanut butter and jelly were made for each other, and so were John Hennessey and performance cars. We all knew it was a matter of time before Hennessey Performance Engineering announced upgrade packages for the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and now that day has finally come. No matter whether you want your Corvette Stingray supercharged or...
After a momentary slip-up showing the upcoming AMG version of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, we now have the first official teaser for the 2014 S63 AMG. Though there's not much other than a quick pass by the lower portion of the car, we can see a license plate--starting with 'S' and including the number '63', aggressive lower aerodynamics at the...
