When it comes to the difference between Formula 1 race cars and normal road going cars that you and I drive, you’d think the gap between the two would be astounding. Well, in most areas this would certainly be true. However, Shell has set out to prove that the advanced racing fuel Ferrari uses in its F1 cars doesn’t offer any real...
When you think of art cars, you probably think of BMW rides commissioned from visionaries like Andy Warhol and Jenny Holzer. Or maybe you think of homegrown models, bedecked with plastic army figurines and Mardi Gras beads. But photographer Luis Gispert has found another variety of art car -- one born from an acute obsession with high fashion...
While there have been rumblings that Ford would not produce a successor to its all-out-insane 305 horsepower, front-wheel drive Focus RS, a mysterious Focus test-mule with some distinct RS components has been spotted in the past. Now we have confirmation of the new-generation Focus RS’ development thanks to comments from Gunnar Herrmann...
Audi is the latest luxury automotive brand to announce record sales and profits for the first six months of the 2011, with the automaker from Ingolstadt posting a $3.5 billion operating profit for the period and record sales of 652,970 vehicles--nearly 100,000 more than in the same period just one year ago. You may recall that Mercedes-Benz and...
Brabus is an expert at the tuning of Mercedes-Benz models, and when it comes to the new 2012 SLK, the German tuner has left no area untouched when it comes to applying its magic touch.

Fisker has just started deliveries of its Karma range-extended electric car, arguably one of the most stylish looking cars currently in production, not to mention one of the cleanest too. And while many major automakers are still years away from launching electric cars of their own, Fisker is already hard work at launching even more models...
In his popular television show Mr Bean, actor Rowan Atkinson may have got around in a tiny Mini, but in reality, the British star actually drives around in hyper-expensive supercars, one of which is the ultra-rare McLaren F1. Well, that was until yesterday when Atkinson lost control of the mega-dollar supercar on a wet patch of the A605 in Haddon...
MINI is working on a whole new range of models, each based off a brand new front-wheel drive platform being developed together with parent company BMW, which will use it for its own range of entry-level hatchbacks due in the coming years.

Audi isn't the first name in high-mpg luxury cars--it has yet to release a hybrid, though it has several on deck, including the A6 Hybrid, which we won't get here in the U.S. But Audi does have its diesel engines, and those manage pretty solid economy while maintaining a level of performance thanks to the high torque figures. But soon, a new...
Episode seven of the second season of Corvette Racing's Track To Street series once again focuses on the team behind the car, but this time takes us into the pit stop experience with some very cool first-person video. If you've ever wondered what it's like to swap wheels and tires, clean a windshield, or refuel an endurance racer in just a few...
English stunt driver and general behind-the-wheel-badass Russ Swift once held the record for parallel parking a car in the smallest space between two others. He did it, naturally, in a Mini, with the aid of a handbrake turn. The German who just reset the new record in a considerably smaller space used the same technique. Ronny Wechselberger pulled...
