Premium automotive brands are enjoying a resurgence in sales and profits as emerging market power houses such as China and Russia starting buying up expensive luxury and performance cars in droves. We just saw Bentley, Daimler and Ferrari all announce record profits or sales recently, and now Porsche has come out with the announcement that its...
Each year Ford donates a very special one-of-a-kind Mustang as part of its continuing commitment to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) AirVenture and the organization’s Oshkosh aviation event held annually in Wisconsin. This year, the very special Mustang was the 2012 Ford Blue Angels Mustang GT, which as its name suggests, was...
It’s been a while since we’ve seen or heard anything about the roadster variant of the Lexus LFA supercar. After teasing us with a stunning concept version back in 2008, Lexus went quiet on the matter and never really brought it up again. Now, an all-encompassing report about Lexus’ future lineup suggests that the LFA Roadster is...
President Barack Obama announced late on Friday the next phase in the U.S. government’s program to increase fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas pollution for all new cars and trucks sold in the country. These new standards will cover cars and light trucks for the model years dating from 2017 through 2025, and will require automakers to...
With a string of creations just as beautiful as this black-on-black Maserati GranTurismo S from Germany’s Anderson, it’s easy to understand why the tuning firm is quickly becoming recognized as one of the best in the industry when it comes to working on high-end European exotics. In stock form, the Maserati GranTurismo S is already a...
Back in May Audi ran a commercial in Europe for its new A6 Avant that featured very similar visuals and themes to the famous ‘Imported From Detroit’ run by Chrysler at this year’s SuperBowl and which starred rapper Eminem and his famous tune Lose Yourself. The following month Eminem’s publisher Eight Mile Style called for...
It was another thriller at the Hungaroring during yesterday’s 2011 Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix, with McLaren’s Jenson Button finally emerging the victor after a drama-filled race that also saw Red Bull Racing’s Sebastian Vettel and fellow McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton take turns at the lead. The typically dry conditions of the...
With the redesigned 2012 Mercedes-Benz M-Class now out in the open, our thoughts turn to the high-performance variant of the M-Class range, the ML63 AMG. This latest prototype spotted just outside the automaker’s test center at the Nurburgring has shed much of the camouflage of the previous cars, and compared against the previous generation...
With hot competition performance mid-size luxury sedan ranks, the 2011 Audi S4 has some of the toughest competition around, but manages to come away with solid place among the best driver's cars on the market. MotorAuthority rates the 2011 Audi S4 8 out of 10 overall. It doesn't offer the high-revving, high-strung V-8 of the BMW M3 or even the...
Just because the 2011 Audi R8 shares some of its core equipment with the Lamborghini Gallardo is no reason to look past the newcomer to the supercar ball. It offers a unique look, all the sensual, stimulating features you expect from a moving work of art, and the wide-open performance (in V-10 trim) you're really looking for. MotorAuthority...
It's not all that much of a coincidence that all of the major luxury manufacturers tend to release all-new or heavily-revised versions of competing cars around the same time. That's just a bonus for us, the enthusiasts, as we have a great new crop of full-size luxury sedans to choose from this year, with the 2011 Audi A8 among them. Combining...
