Wreckage of Ferrari F40 that crashed in Houston, TexasUPDATE: It turns out the Ferrari F40 supercar that was crashed in Houston, Texas last week may have been driven to its death by a mechanic and not the actual owner. We say death, as the $500,000 Ferrari is believed to be a write-off as its frame has been damaged. The worst part is that the owner, away in Europe at the time, bought the car brand...

2012 Buick VeranoThe upcoming 2012 Buick Verano may be based on the same platform underpinning the humble Chevrolet Cruze, but its maker boasts the car will offer one of the quietest cabins on the market when it hits showrooms towards the end of the year. That’s certainly a plus in the luxury sedan segment, and importantly, the Verano is claimed to be...

Steve McQueen's 1970 Porsche 911S. Image: RM AuctionsIt’s hard to put a value on a vintage Porsche 911S, since so much depends on condition and originality. The book value for a 1970 Porsche 911S, loaded with factory options, numbers-matching, and with 112,400 miles on the odometer, is around $55,000. That’s a bit misleading, however, since any used car is worth what a buyer is willing...
