Not too long ago, I had my first opportunity to drive a Polaris Slingshot. While I thought it was quite entertaining, it’s still definitely a niche vehicle. Now, for 2020, Polaris has gone deep into the internals of the Slingshot to improve its drivetrain, handling, comfort, and more.

While the idea of a 6×6 Mercedes G-wagon has tremendous appeal to me, it’s not necessarily the case that more wheels are always better. Take, for example, this ridiculous looking creation that recently turned up in Russia.

While most of today’s concept cars envision improvements to the driving experience itself, on occasion vehicles are seen as having a broader impact on one’s lifestyle. That’s the case with this unusual Toyota concept from the early 1970s.

You might know Tim Burton from movies like Beetlejuice, Batman, and Edward Scissorhands. This isn’t THAT Tim Burton. This Tim, better known by his screen name Shmee150, is one of the world’s most famous car enthusiasts.

The amphibious Colani Sea Ranger was built on top of a Mercedes-Benz Unimog. Or at least put together using the parts from one; it’s certainly no longer recognizable as a Unimog. The Sea Ranger is part off-road utility vehicle, part camper, and part amphibious watercraft.

Like many of you, I’ve always assumed that Cameron’s dad’s prized car in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off was an actual Ferrari. In fact, it was a replica, made by Modena. Still, it’s a very cool looking car, and one lucky buyer just got their hands on one that actually appeared in the movie. This 1963 Modena Spyder California is serial number GTC0001 (one of three that were used in the film), and is powered by a 427ci V8 engine, connected to a TKO 500 5-speed manual gearbox.

Korean automaker Genesis has been making some very good vehicles since they first spun off from Hyundai a few years back. Last year, they took home some big awards for their excellent G70 sedan, and the hits keep coming.

This is definitely one of the stranger custom vehicles I’ve seen in a while, but it’s actually pretty cool. To celebrate World Book Day a few years back, the guys at 7UP Argentina enlisted the help of an artist to create a custom car that doubles as a free library on wheels. While artist Raul Lemesoff could have just built any old book wagon, he went the extra mile, and converted an old 1979 Ford Falcon into what he call his Weapon of Mass Instruction.

While the idea of revealing the new 2021 Yukon somewhere in Canada’s Yukon territory might have been more appropriate, GMC thought it might be better to do it somewhere a little easier to get to, so they brought a bunch of us out to Vail, Colorado to raise the curtain instead. The snowy backdrop of Vail and its mountains is the perfect environment for showing off GMC’s flagship full-size SUV, which, like the brands other vehicles deftly balances between luxury and adventurousness.

The new Ford Bronco is one of the most eagerly anticipated and teased vehicles in quite some time. While we wait for the official reveal and release of Ford’s rebooted off-roader, old school Broncos are still out there to entertain us.

Not too long ago, we got a chance to go up close and personal with the 2021 Lexus LC 500 Convertible, and it’s quite a stunner. We’re still several months away from the drop-top going into production, but one lucky bidder at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2020 auction will be able to get their hands on one sooner. This very special 2021 LC 500 Convertible gets a VIN ending in “100001.”

In 1969, Mercedes-Benz unveiled a concept car powered by a Wankel rotary engine: the C 111. Built as a test bed for the unusual engine, the first version of the C 111 had a three-rotor unit with an output of 280hp and a maximum top speed of 161 mph.

The much-derided Pontial Aztek sits atop many lists for being the ugliest car ever produced. And while it might have had some redeeming qualities, its exterior design most certainly was not one of them. But with a little nip here and a tuck there, could the Aztek have been a much better looking vehicle?

UK automaker Aston Martin has revealed that it’s going back to its roots with a limited-production 2-seater, inspired by its open cockpit racers of yore. Teased only by a sketched outline at this point, the V12 Speedster will pay tribute to Aston’s 1959 LeMans winning DBR1, and will draw upon the CC100 Speedster concept the company showed off back in 2013.

Consumer electronics maker Sony turned up at CES 2020 with something absolutely nobody was expecting – their very own concept car, known as the Sony Vision-S. Sony built the handsome looking prototype vehicle as a testbed and demonstration platform for some of its many different technologies, from camera sensors to entertainment systems.
