As we’ve already told you, we’re having a big party. RSVPs have been off the hook, as the kids say, so its looking like Tao in the Venetian on Tuesday after 10pm will be the place to be. If you’re in Vegas next week for the the autoparts orgy that is SEMA, and you haven’t [...]

What? You don’t dig the loveable Forester? Well, how about one with the same miracle mill found behind the headlights of the STI? That’s exactly what the mad scientists at Subaru have cooked up just for SEMA. Aside from the 315 horsepower 2.5-liter four cylinder, the car also sports unique styling outside with a JDM [...]

Kidding. Looks like Ford sent everyone in the auto bloggo a brown wrapped package marked “CONFIDENTIAL.” Inside was the video the new F150 SVT (maybe called “Raptor”) you will find below the jump.

Looks like beautifully aged Corvettes are turning up everywhere. That’s right. We said yard find. This gorgeous piece of Americana wasn’t lovingly tucked away inside of a barn or garage somewhere. The two-seater was abandoned under a pine tree in the Rockies in 1963. We don’t know whether it was the sap or the generous [...]

So what is this mystery vehicle? As you might [...]

Seems like just yesterday reader John R was wondering just what Jay Leno was smoking when he said Ford saved Aston Martin. Looks like an Aston Martin owner discovered what exactly Blue Oval salvation means. It’s well known that FoMoCo swapped and traded parts from the family bin into the high-dollar sports cars, most of [...]
