Sliding a car around a circle, tires blazing, looking out the side window, Mauro Calo drove his way into the record books this Sunday, keeping the drift up for a record 2,308 meters, or bit over 7,572 feet. The new record is 394 meters (1,292 feet) longer than the previous world record. Calo set the new record on the Handling Circuit at...
At last year's Detroit Auto Show, Chevrolet pulled the sheet off its Aveo RS concept. Since then, the Aveo line has been renamed Sonic, but the RS treatment appears to be moving forward, adding a bit of heat to the small hatch. The heat doesn't come in the form of power, however: it's equipped with the same 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder...
The 2012 BMW M5 has been revealed but even though the car won’t be hitting showrooms until the end of the year, its online configurator has just gone live, making us all the more hungry for the new super sedan. For now there’s only a couple of options to play around, such as color and interior trim choices, but we do get to see a...
The MTV "Jackass" crew's silly, often dangerous stunts, have shocked, disgusted, and entertained us for years. Today, however, the Jackass crew mourns the loss of one of its core members, Ryan Dunn, who died in an early-morning accident today. Driving his Porsche on Route 322 in West Goshen, Pennsylvania around 2:30 this morning, Dunn's car left...
Mercedes-Benz may soon have a direct rival to the BMW X6 coupe-crossover with news surfacing today that the automaker from Stuttgart is planning its own four-seat crossover based on the recently revealed 2012 M-Class. The information was reported by Autocar citing inside sources at Mercedes-Benz. They claim that a new ‘GLS’ crossover...
With 620 horsepower being channeled to the rear wheels in a chassis that weighs a tick over 3,000 pounds, it’s little wonder that the 911 GT2 RS is often voted the most frightening car to drive in Porsche’s current lineup. If there’s anyone with even the slightest chance of taming the beast, its seven-time Pikes Peak Hill Climb...
Remember last year’s stunning Mercedes-Benz F800 Style concept car? Well, here’s the production version caught testing in prototype form ahead of an expected sales launch towards the end of 2013. The car is just one model from a new family of compact cars being developed by Mercedes-Benz as rivals to the BMW 1-Series and Audi A3, all...
We already have a pretty good indication as to what the third-generation 2013 Mercedes-Benz A-Class will look like following the unveiling of the Concept A-Class back at the 2011 New York Auto Show, but now we have a new round of spy shots revealing just how much of the stylish concept will actually make it to production. Looking very much like...
This horrible looking wreck is the aftermath of a crash involving the very rare Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder Performante LP570-4 and brazen celebrities participating in the 2011 Dodgeball Rally that took place recently. The image above was posted by 22-year old Spencer Matthews on his Twitter following the crash last Thursday. The British actor was...
The future of the struggling Maybach brand is expected to be determined by as early as next month, with two major possibilities reportedly on the cards--either drop the brand altogether or tie-up with another automaker, most likely Aston Martin, and jointly develop a successor to the lackluster 57 and 62 sedans. However, a third scenario has...
If you’ve got 5w 30 coursing through your veins like we do, that question posed in the title may be along the lines of “would you like to keep breathing?” Of course the answer is going to be yes, and General Motors is giving you the opportunity to win the ultimate car enthusiast and race fan prize package, but you’ve only...
Last weekend we were treated to the annual 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race and in just a week’s time we’ll be enthralled by another 24 hour long race, the equally arduous Nurburgring 24 Hours at the famous Nurburgring-Nordschleife in Germany’s pristine Eifel hills. The Nurburgring 24 Hours is the highlight of the VLN, a...
