When I received an invitation from Lexus to take a road trip down the Northern California coast to watch the 2019 U.S. Open, the golf geek in me was truly excited. But then came the icing on the cake – about halfway through the trip, I was going to spend a day at Laguna Seca – one of the nation’s greatest racing circuits; and I’d get to learn the course in Lexus’ most powerful and impressive performance cars, the GS F, the LC 500, and the RC F Track Edition.

De Tomaso was one of the great boutique automakers of the 1960s and 1970s, cranking out sleek and powerful wheeled objects of desire like the Pantera and Mangusta. The company went dormant for quite some time, and has changed hands along the way.

Lamborghini has long been known for their vibrant and unique colors, offering up exotic cars in brilliant shades of yellow, orange, green, and other hues. Recently, the Italian sports car (and sports SUV) maker completed the build of a shiny new paint shop, and is so proud of it that they shared footage from inside the facility.

The 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is shaping up to be quite the beast. After all, it’s going to pack a 5.2-liter supercharged V8 engine that makes an insane 760 horsepower. Now we know just how much Ford’s top-of-the-line muscle car is going to cost thanks to a recently leaked dealer pricing sheet.

The notion of a Toyota Avalon being tricked out by TRD has always seemed a bit odd to me. I mean sure, it’s now got a powerful 301hp V6 under the hood, and the chassis is stiffer than it’s ever been, but still, the Avalon is one of those cars that’s ideal for long road trips, with its cushy, whisper quiet interior, and comfortable suspension.

Driving should be a fun experience. This includes SUVs and the families who drive them. Thank goodness Ford recognizes this and has introduced an ST trim for the 2020 Ford Explorer. The popular full-size SUV was turned over to Ford Performance who created a truly sporty version of this SUV for the first time starting in the 2020 model year.

Dads can be pretty awesome – especially the ones who give their kids the gift of muscle cars. To celebrate his own 80th birthday, Ford Mustang enthusiast decided to give each of his three adult children a shiny new Mustang GT convertible.

Dodge and SRT today officially took wraps off of its beastliest Charger yet – an aggressively kitted-out version of the world’s only muscle car sedan that’s just that much more bonkers. The 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody may have a long name, but it’s a wiiiiiide car.

BMW’s i8 is one of the coolest looking production cars ever made, as it is basically a concept car that you can actually own. Now, BMW is teasing what the next generation of hybrid supercars might look like with the reveal of the Vision M NEXT.

Do you love yourself some Porsches? If you’re a fan of the German sports car brand, you’ll be thrilled with this short retrospective video which features a few classic Porsche designs from the last sixty or so years.

The 1960s and 1970s gave us some of the coolest looking concept cars of all time. The streamlined wedge-shaped cars were my personal favorites, like the Lamborghini Marzal, the Toyota EX-III, and this gloriously futuristic machine, the 1970 Ferrari Modulo 512.

It’s been a few months since we first heard about the latest iteration of the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, and until now, we’ve had no details on performance specs other than the fact that it would make “more than 700hp.”

When first presented with the option of driving the Lexus LC 500 for a week, I damn near broke out in song. In recent years, Japanese luxury automaker Lexus has gone to great lengths in order to distance itself from the longstanding impression that it only makes boring automobiles.

In the 1980s, two Porsche tuners made wild cars that many kids of the era had posters of plastered on walls – they were RUF and Gemballa. Both companies are still around making fast Porsche cars faster, and Gemballa currently has a 911 Turbo to its credit that produces 818 hp and can hit 62 mph in 2.38 seconds.
