After seeing the tempting spy shots earlier this week, we were eagerly looking forward to Audi's latest midsize RS model. But all is for naught, as Audi PR chief Jeff Kuhlman has said there's no plan to bring the RS4 to the U.S. Why, you ask? Because Audi doesn't want to spoil the RS image in the U.S. Err, huh? TT RS and RS5 are OK, but put all...
We've already seen BMW's early April Fool's Day joke, and the but today the company made the not-so-surprising (or funny) official revelation. Despite the anti-climactic nature of the unveiling, we still want one. Like, now. Does it make sense? Of course not. It's a high-performance sport truck, or ute as the Aussies more sensibly call vehicles of...
Jeep has a long tradition of using Chrysler's Mopar aftermarket performance-parts to cobble together some modded-up Jeeps for the annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari, which takes place in Utah later this month. This year is no exception, as Jeep will be bringing six models to Moab. The company has released sketches of two of the models--the Renegade...

Or at least we think that's the lesson this Corvette driver is trying to teach us. It's just not cool to park on flat surfaces when there's a guardrail handy to let you park in style. Even if you are at Wal Mart. [SCCA...
Rumored to be on the road to production since 2009, the Bugatti Galibier 16C four-door is back in the spotlight, this time on the back of word from sources supposedly close to the decision-making process that say Volkswagen has given the project the green light. If you've forgotten the Galibier's stats, here's the cheat sheet: 800 horsepower, four...
