With all this talk of GM resurrecting the Grand Sport name once more, I thought it was only fitting to remind everyone of the GS legacy. We’ve rattled off more than once about just how Fiendish the original cars were, so in this case I think I’ll just let the photo above do the talking. [...]
And not just for testing. Subaru’s performance arm is set to take on the 24 Hours of Nurburgring next month in a specially-prepared Impreza WRX. The car rocks a mostly stock motor, though a number of chassis-stiffening components have been added to help the car cope with a full day’s worth of abuse. STI will [...]
And for your weekly dose of can’t-have-it, Renault has released pricing for its Clio RS line. Prices start at around $23,000 for the RS Cup, complete with its 200 horse 2.0-liter mill. The Cup version also comes with a stiffer chassis, less weight and serious stoppers. If you’re after a little more cush with your [...]
Speaking of bad ass Bimmers, word on the Web is the world should see its first glimpse of BMW’s Z2 concept at the Frankfurt auto show in September. Haven’t heard about the Z2? Allow us to enlighten you. BMW says the car should pack between 200 and 250 horsepower depending on what mill you go [...]

From Dhabi Switzerland with love, where else? Still, wrong. Just wrong.
Last year, when the Nissan GT-R stopped by Tire Rack’s One Lap of America, it finished 11th in its class. That may seem lackluster, but considering the Nissan was bone stock and going toe-to-toe with some wild variations on cars like the Porsche 911 and the Corvette Z06, the car did fairly well.

Upon showing off the complete, production version of Aston Martin’s One-77 yesterday, loyal Fiend Jeff Glucker pointed out he’d rather have a Bugatti Veyron. I’m not usually one to snub one piece of insane metal for another, but I have to make an exception in this case. Aside from all the mystique and awesome that [...]
