The SSC Tuatara is the long-time-coming hypercar from the likes of North American automaker SSC. There have been big promises with regards to performance and it appears ...

Picking one vanity license plate from all the ones everyone sees around is not easy. And that's not really what I am asking for. But is there one that stuck out to you? I saw this RECALL  license plate at this week's 24 Hours of Lemons race. It would be ...

It seems all new vehicles have to be crossovers or SUVs.  This trend has made sedans, wagons, and pretty much every other interesting car disappear from the market, for this reason, I have a general disdain for them.  There are a few exceptions that prove the rule, but they have ...

I find it so interesting how the Porsche 914 has such a cult following and yet they don't really look anything like a Porsche. I would guess that most people think of the froggy face and sloping rear end. With the 914, we instead get a box that somehow looks ...

Pro Drifter Ryan Tuerck made news when he swapped a 4.5-liter V8 engine from a Ferrari 458 into a Toyota GT86. Now he's cooked up a far more interesting swap (though that other one was pretty rad too). Tuerck is taking the straight-six out of his A90 GR Supra and ...

The fact that the 2020 24 Hours of Lemons Halloween Hooptiefest is happening is kind of a miracle. Whatever it took to make it happen, I'm glad it's here. This will be the first race that I am doing in over two years. While other obligations kept me from competing, ...

Hoonigan has a new build series and no, it does not feature some wild custom rally machine, a drift monster, or an ambitious goal that won't be met. This time, Hoonigan bought a clapped-out 1971 Chevrolet Caprice and plans to turn it into a blown Donk. The Hoons from up ...

I'm all for EVs when they go beyond what's expected in terms of environmental consciousness. For example, the Fisker Karma back when it was new was so intriguing to me. Solar panels on the roof, naturally fallen tree wood grain, and no real leather make it sound like the car ...

I've been wanting an oil extractor. Anyone I know who has one sings its praises like nothing else. You slide the plastic tube down the dipstick channel, pump out all the oil into the container, and you're ahead of the game. No messy oil collection trays. No fouling of drain ...

The Gymkhana series is moving forward with a new face. Travis Pastrana has been given the nod and will carry the torch for the vehicular attack entertainment series. To do this, T-Pain-strana needs a new whip. Clearly, Subaru is up to the task here. Or more specifically, Vermont SportsCar is ...

The fourth generation of the Ariel Atom is now available in North America. The super lightweight vehicle that once deformed Jeremy Clarkson's face is all-new, despite retaining its familiar looks.
