A top-notch supercar event with just the right sort of setting. The Wilton Classic is a slightly different from many of the other supercar events out there. Instead of a huge number of owners each bringing a car or two, this is actually a small number of collectors each bringing their large collections. That means a greater variety of cars, instead of just a lot of the more popular models.

"This is Italy's car." It literally shook the supercar world upside down when it debuted in 2009. Everything about the Ferrari 458 Italia, from its styling, performance and engine note, is quite literally perfect. Powered by a 4.5-liter V8 placed midship, the 458 blasts from 0-62 mph in 2.9 seconds and has a top speed of 205 mph. Did we mention it�s downright gorgeous inside and out? Every

The slick-looking Honda Civic Tourer will make its official debut next month. This always seems to happen to US wagon enthusiasts. Whenever an automaker launches a cool wagon variant for one of its models, Europe is usually the only beneficiary. It totally sucks. Affordable and fun wagons are just not to be had anymore in the US and it�s a damn shame. Man do we miss the Dodge Magnum right

In fairness, this is probably funnier than if the prank had actually worked. A pair of friends in Australia had a good, albeit not especially elaborate idea for a prank. They called for a taxi and then, with one of them wrapped up in plastic, the other got the taxi driver to help him load what was very obviously a body into the trunk of the car. They were filming the whole thing in order to

The next generation of design and engineering students are already creating and building concept cars. Interested in drawing cars for a living? Good at numbers? Then perhaps consider a career in automotive engineering. Forget lame ass accounting and become a car designer or engineer. That�s what these students did at the Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research. What

It's ok if this car sends shivers down your spine. He is possibly the greatest racing car driver of all time, and he sadly left this world far too soon. We�re talking about the one and only Ayrton Senna. To this day his name still draws endless praise for his driving genius as well as tears of sadness. Anyone looking to become closer to the man himself, perhaps the best way to do so is to

Does Chevy really need a new off-road capable SUV in the US? Perhaps. The truck-based Chevy Trailblazer was discontinued back in 2009, and it seemed unlikely even then that it would be replaced. Thing is, times change as does market demand. Although it�s not official at this point, an inside source who�s supposedly familiar with Chevrolet�s upcoming product plans claims that a new midsize

Turns out Ford and Mountune give a shit about US enthusiasts after all. For years many US enthusiasts complained � and rightly so � that automaker and/or their official tuning partners were focusing all of their attention in the Euro market. In addition, many of the best and most affordable performance cars were only available to Old World buyers. The new Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST are

More power and added styles comes to Audi's performance wagon thanks to the guys at Senner Tuning. We�ve long been fans of high-performance wagons although they�re relatively few in number. What�s worse is that they�re not strong sellers in the US. Wagons in general have been long replaced by the SUV and CUV amongst America�s soccer moms. But Europe is a different story and wagons of all

Guess the profit margin on such a rare thing of beauty was too tempting for one Veneno owner to pass up. That obviously didn�t take too long, but it was bound to happen at some point. One of the three Lamborghini Venenos (not including the fourth example that�ll remain in Lamborghini�s official museum) is supposedly on the market. We know that two of the Venenos were sold to a couple of

Don't worry, it�s not as bad as you're assuming. It turns out that green cars are increasing in popularity amongst car buyers in North America, Europe and Asia. But we�re not referring to "green" cars like the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Volt. We�re referring to the color green. Sorry for any confusion. A new report released by BASF has found that the green color range has become more popular

Looks like Hollywood has sent a memo that this will be the year for all racing movies. The really great thing about making movies for car guys is that there isn�t much that will keep us from watching a car movie. We�ll put up with basically anything in order to see some good chase scenes, and it seems Born To Race Fast Track will at least deliver this much. At least from what we can tell by

Just a few weeks ahead of its official debut at Frankfurt, BMW reveals the i8's performance and power specs. Just a few days ago it was announced that the BMW i8 will have its official debut at Frankfurt next month. Before that event takes place, BMW has jumped the gun and has revealed the new high-performance sports car�s official specs. Only down side? Still no pictures of the final

But it wasn't because Pontiac was killed with an ax. There was a time, albeit short, when it looked as if Pontiac was on the verge of a major comeback. It started with the fourth-generation GTO that launched in 2004, but lasted only until 2006. And yes, it was based on a Holden-developed RWD platform that was sold Down Under as the Monaro. That GTO wasn�t perfect but it was a solid first

We're just as confused about this one as you likely are. There�s no question we�ve been getting mixed messages regarding the on again-off again future of the Scion FR-S and Toyota GT86 convertible variants. Earlier this month word began to leak out that Toyota had all but effectively cancelled plans to launch both convertible and turbo version of the hot-selling Scion FR-S. The GT86, which

It was on the market for only a short time, but it forever left its mark. The Ferrari F430 Scuderia was unveiled by none other than Michael Schumacher in 2007 and was on sale until its successor, the 458 Italia, premiered in 2009. Compared to the standard F430, the 430 Scuderia was designed to tackle the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. Not only that, it matched the time of the iconic

Depending on whom you ask, Tesla is either doing well or its being deceptive in regards to its accounting. Life at Tesla is good these days. The EV automaker has just announced that it sold 5,150 Model S EV sedans in the US last quarter. Why is that a good number? Because the $69,900 Model S is selling about the same number of units as the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf, which are both

You never know what your going to face on the trail. Ram Trucks are terrific for off-road use. If off-road, however, means taking a dirt bike up a dirt trail, the last thing you would expect to see is a ram, no not the truck, the real deal, the one with fur and horns. That's exactly what happened to this unsuspecting dirt biker. After a quick standoff the ram gave the biker a first hand

We'll be seeing all of it once it's unveiled in Frankfurt. It might not be obvious from the pictures, but Kia�s new KED 10 Concept, which will be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show, is aimed at taking business away from the Nissan Juke. Kia released a couple of teaser shots of the car, which look very dramatic, but if we had to put money on it, we�d guess that what we�re basically talking

Most actual full-scale cars can't hit 200mph, so it'll be extra impressive from an RC car. Two days ago we ran a video which shows a Mclaren F1 RC car that nearly hit 100mph. Our reaction today... Meh. Why? Because now we see what happens when the subject of top speed is tackled by a much more serious group of enthusiasts. The result was actually much the same, although this time the car

If a vinyl wrap is worth doing, it's worth doing right. We�ve seen all kinds of vinyl wraps on cars in recent years. The trend has really taken off, and now even more exotic materials are being used. So a Maserati wrapped in camouflage vinyl might seem pretty run of the mill, but it is the details where this job succeeds. The wrap was done by WrapStyle Prague, which is obviously in the

Somehow even cooler than the usual Aston Martin endurance racers. There are only a handful of things in the world which you can tell will be fantastic after just hearing the name. The �Aston Martin V12 Zagato Race Car� is definitely one of those things. Aston Martin has teamed up with Zagato a number of times in the past, usually for extremely limited runs of gorgeous road cars, but this

A reminder that barns can often times contain some of the great automotive treasures. The Lancia Stratos is without a doubt one of the greatest cars of all time. It has everything an iconic car should have: racing pedigree, Italian styling, plenty of power and, above all, rarity. We just love it. It�s also one of the most successful rally cars ever built. All told, just 492 examples were
