The...
If you need a visual reminder of why it's not just unsafe but downright stupid to pass on the right, here you go, courtesy of some crazy guy in Russia driving a Nissant GT-R. As you'll see in the videos, the problem starts a few hundred feet before the crash itself, as the GT-R driver passes a slower-moving car on the right, clipping a parked car...
The first spy shots of the upcoming 2012 Audi S6 emerged in March, and surprisingly, it wasn't wearing anything in the way of camouflage. Perhaps with the new A6 already out and about, Audi thought it would slip under the radar--but it didn't, and it hasn't this time, either, as our spies captured the car in testing again, including shots of the...
Reports of Aston Martin attempting to go public and file an initial public offering (IPO) date back almost as far as when the classic British brand was first sold by Ford to a consortium led by Prodrive founder David Richards.

We’re talking about the new 2012 Porsche 911 that’s set to go on sale early next year, a prototype of which has been spotted testing in Germany by our sleuth spy...
BMW announced late last year that it was planning a return to the highly competitive Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) touring car race series and then last month revealed that it would be unveiling a concept version of its new DTM race car on July 15. Now, less than a week out from that date, we have spy shots of a prototype for the new BMW DTM...
Fernando Alonso has clenched the first victory for Ferrari in the 2011 Formula 1 Championship, taking top honors at the Silverstone race track during yesterday’s British Grand Prix. The win comes exactly 60 years after Ferrari’s first ever victory in Formula 1, which took place back in 1951 with José Froilán...
Ever wanted to cruise with the top down and three of your friends in tow at speeds of up to 231 mph? Probably not, but in case you ever change your mind Brabus has now built the car for you. The legendary German tuner specializing in Mercedes-Benz models has taken the latest E-Class Cabriolet and shoehorned its monster twin-turbocharged V-12...
The last we heard, Audi was postponing its decision on U.S. production plans due to a shortage of sales and the need to develop a suitable supplier network to source parts locally. That was in the midst of the global financial crisis so it was understandable that the automaker was a little apprehensive. Fast forward to today and Audi is reporting...
After aggressively pursuing a NASCAR Sprint Cup date for 10 years, Kentucky Speedway's inaugural stock car race was marred in more ways than one. While the track produced another patented Kyle Busch domination, the race was marred by its inability to allow incoming and outgoing traffic into the track's grounds. At least 20,000 fans were turned...
