Our own Wes Siler is in Miami today test driving Toyota's new hotness, the Lexus LFA. He's still enjoying it, but look for our first drive tomorrow. For now, drool over live track shots and the technical presentation below.
The 2011 Lexus LFA isn't the fastest car ever made, nor the most powerful or even the quickest to 60 MPH. It can't even match the ZR1 around the Nürburgring. So why will this Toyota cost nearly $400,000?
Even kajillion-dollar hyper-cars have to contend with the dastardly forces of European parking authorities. No car, not even the Bugatti Veyron is safe from Das Boot.
The Lotus Exige Scura has debuted at that Tokyo Motor Show and she's more than just a snazzy black paint job. It's sporting launch control, tunable traction control and fully adjustable Ohlins dampers. Track day meets the dark side.
The Nissan Land Glider isn't a new idea — create a car that leans into corners and you'll deliver an exciting ride. It's been conceptualized ad-nauseum, but this here's one we might actually enjoy driving.
We've seen the Toyota FT-86 for a couple of weeks, carefully dissected the delicious, metallic red sports car in any way we can, but now we've actually seen it in the flesh and Toyota's got some serious hotness here.
We've delivered the Lexus LFA's official shots and specs and now we've got live shots from the Tokyo Motor Show. Akio Toyoda approves, and he should, at $400,000 the limited run supercar will be Toyota's most extreme offering ever.
Supasse got its start making Lotus 7-like sports cars and is now taking the next step with the Supasse V, a mid-engined sports car with a 270 HP Mazda engine weighing in at only 1,874 pounds.
Why We Wish Subaru Was In NASCAR If Subaru were in NASCAR, we can only hope they'd use the GT300, a 2009 Super GT-ized Legacy B4 offspring, as its "stock car." Also, we'd hope this would be their pit crew. Oh, the car?
GM's former vice-chairman Bob "Maximum Marketing" Lutz on October 29th at New York's Monticello Motor Club. Better news? You may be able to race Bob and Wes. May the best car win, bitches.
In addition to the production-intent CR-Z concept, Honda's bringing a minivan concept to the Tokyo Motor Show called the Honda Skydeck. With gimmicks galore like sliding and scissor doors, the coolest thing's the interior. Take a gander above or below.
The Acura ZDX press drive's going on in Manhattan today. We'll have more on that later. For the moment, feast your eyes on the mega-gallery of brown metal flesh — and the nicest Acura interior ever — below the jump.
The latest deluge of images from perennially forthcoming Gran Turismo 5 show off the Ferrari 458 Italia and LP 560-4 going through the digital paces. We also get a first look at some realistically-rendered rally car crash damage. Ooh!
The documentarians at National Geographic are turning their lenses towards the great factories of the world in a new Ultimate Factories series. First up is Lamborghini and if the still shots and video below are any indication, it's a must-see.
The VW L1 is 3/4 of the way towards VW's goal of a 200 MPG production car. None of these creepy European journalists care. They just want to watch her get out of it.
Legend speaks of the return of the Volkswagen Phaeton, a.k.a 'Piech's Pholly,' a.k.a. the VW sedan so mind-blowingly expensive, Americans wouldn't wrap their wallets around it. To combat the problem, Volkswagen has now made a version even more expensive.
The Lexus LF-Ch comes with tiny mirrors, flashy paint and hybrid drive system you'd expect from a concept. But don't dismiss it, this is Lexus taking direct aim at the Audi A3 and BMW 1-series.
