We’re not certain if this commercial for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is slated for Super Bowl Sunday, but that doesn’t really matter. Watch it right now, and enjoy this beautiful car in an ad campaign that is gloriously bereft of celebrities, talking babies, or any other song and dance.

Having ditched the M3’s powerful and great-sounding V8 for a more powerful turbocharged 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder that produces a total of 420 horsepower, BMW took the new 2014 M3 and its two-door sister, the 2014 M4, onto the track in this video.

/DRIVE had the opportunity to take a tour of the Audi quattro GmbH factory where all Audi R8s come together. Beginning with the all-aluminum body – which is made up of extruded, cast, and sheet metal aluminum – the R8 begins to take shape.

Mate Rimac is a 25-year-old Croatian engineer who may have created the world’s fastest electric car: the Rimac Concept_One. First seen at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2011, Rimac has continued improving the vehicle since its debut and the specs are impressive, to say the least.

Unlike most of America, Kris Singh’s investments have paid off enough for him to afford a $4.1 million hypercar. At least he’s been kind enough to invite us – or more precisely, the guys from the DuPont Registry – into his Miami residence to watch him take delivery of this rare vehicle.

For those days when your sad little 545 horsepower Nissan GT-R isn’t enough, there’s always Garage D’s tuner package which manages to crank Godzilla’s muscle up to a whopping 1,200 horses. The GT-R DT1200R isn’t about body work – it’s all under the hood, but this package of engine upgrades allows the GT-R bestowed with it to hit a top speed of 230mph, and eat up a quarter-mile of track in just 9.45 seconds, or a full mile in 22.528 seconds.

It seems as if every video of the Nürburgring these days takes us on the Nordschleife, but this spot from /DRIVE  puts us on the lesser-seen Grand Prix track. Host Chris Harris first gets behind the wheel of an off-the-shelf Audi R8 V10 S-Tronic street car, and it’s certainly no slouch.

Oh Marchettino, how we envy your life, spending countless days on the roads and tracks of Europe, capturing the sights and sounds of every awesome supercar you can find. In this clip, our friend from Italy recorded the insane ear candy that comes from the exhaust of Ferrari’s 860hp V12 FXX Evoluzione race cars.

The all-new Lexus RC F Coupe is a beautiful car that is powered by an impressive 450+ horsepower engine, has aggressive body lines, and sports a stunning (albeit giant) mesh spindle grille. We heard at the NAIAS 2014 unveiling that you can opt for a carbon fiber roof, hood, and rear spoiler package, and now we have images to share showing the details.

If you’re patient and can wait until the end of 2014, you’ll probably be able to pick up a production 2015 Ford Mustang GT for under $40,000. But one lucky bidder managed to score the very first production Mustang GT for a whopping $300,000 at auction.

Subaru unveiled the all-new 2015  WRX STI at this year’s North American International Auto Show in Detroit along with a limited edition WRX STI Launch Edition. The new WRX STI packs the venerated 305-horsepower 2.5-liter turbocharged BOXER engine under the hood, attached to a six-speed manual transmission.

While most of us don’t think about track-day cars when we hear the words “Ford EcoBoost,” you might just change your mind after reading about this sweet ride from British automaker Radical. The Radial RXC Turbo is powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbo Ford EcoBoost V6 engine, capable of pushing out an impressive 454 horsepower and 500 lb-ft.

The 2015 Lexus RC F Coupe is a beautiful car with what looks to be an awesome engine under the hood. The people over at Kaizen Factor had the chance to sit in one at NAIAS 2014 and check out the car’s all-new digital gauges in action.

What happens when Godzilla starts taking steroids? The Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3, that’s what. Just imagine taking what is one of the fastest accelerating vehicles on the road today and stripping about 1,000 pounds from its weight, improving its aerodynamics and downforce, and turning it into a rear-wheel drive (per FIA GT3 regulations).

This year’s North American International Auto Show in Detroit gave us some terrific new cars, some that surprised us completely and some that we knew were going to be revealed at the show. We sat down and looked at all the vehicles that were unveiled at the show and chose our top five favorite cars that debuted at the show.
