The Spada Codatronca was, almost, the Ferrari FF--four years before the FF came to be. No, it wasn't a Ferrari, and it didn't have all-wheel drive, but it was a long-backed super tourer packing 600 horsepower. Now it's getting a new edition--an open-top model called the Monza. New images have leaked ahead of its official debut, confirming the...
In possibly the worst-timed government announcement ever, Lisa P. Jackson, the administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is currently holding a press conference in Washington, D.C. to announce a new mandate for carmakers: all non-round letters in any badge, nameplate, or other signifier are to be phased out by 2012 in an effort to...
There’s a new comic book derived movie brewing in Hollywood and this one is set to feature a handful of cars from one of the least heard of luxury brands, Acura.

According to the spy...
High Gear Media's own Joel Feder is on the ground in Phoenix at a Kia event today, and he tells us that Kia has confirmed the new Rio sedan will be on display at the 2011 New York Auto Show. We don't know the details on what to expect here in the U.S.--that's being saved for the show--but we can work with the figures of the Rio hatchback for some...

With a turbo four-cylinder under the hood, an aggressive look, and an automotive Napoleon complex, it's potentially the most interesting hot hatch on the near horizon. Today's rumor mill has ground out a tidbit that makes it even more tempting: output of 180...
Electric car maker Tesla is suing U.K. hit TV show TopGear for libel and malicious falsehood, seeking to right the record about its Roadster electric sports car, which the company thinks was treated unfairly by the sometimes witty, sometimes boorish hosts of the show.
