Remember those reports of our three favorite hoons from the UK busting around the desert in a Dodge Challenger SRT8, a Cadillac CTS-V and a Chevrolet Corvette, ZR1? Here’s why: Clarkson, Hammond and May set upon the states to find out if the newest generation of muscle cars are more than crappy a crappy chassis [...]

Hats off to these guys. The Fiends at Synapse Turbo have managed to pull a hairy 371 horsepower out of the Chevrolet Cobalt SS—at the wheels, no less. All that power comes out of the Ecotec 2.0-liter four banger on pump gas. Of course, you’re looking at about 22 psi shoved down the Bow Tie’s [...]

“Say what? That’s just a dirty old F-body Z28. My cousin Julian in Sea Bright’s got one, and his is an IROC! So yeah, I see the shiny wheels, the big wing (which has to be good for at least 30 hp, right?) and the orange skunk stripes — but so what? I’m telling you, Julian’s [...]

Looks like the Rossi 66 will have some company in the retro C6 Corvette category. Christian Cyrulewski has got it into his head the world needs another dose of ’69 Corvette Stingray, and has set about mixing the muscular looks of that car with the all-out performance of the C6. The car is slated for [...]

While it looks like we may have to wait a bit longer for the heavily-anticipated 2010 Chevrolet Cruze, our friends in Europe already have a competition variant. The car is being prepped by the factory for competition in the 2009 season of the World Touring Car Championship. Chevrolet has completed its first public test in [...]

We’ve already told you we’re pretty amped to see the Camaro Black project at this year’s auto orgy, but it looks like there’ll be plenty other Bow Ties to lust over at the show. Hands down the most exciting ride is the LS7 Concept, powered by—you guessed it—the same LS7 V8 out of the Corvette [...]

So, the boss has asked us to pick our favorite engine swap. As fate would have it, I have a friend who knows a thing or two about swapping… and the odd thing is that he was just a toddler in the ’70’s! Matt “Tinman” Johnston is that rare and valuable combination: good friend and [...]

Do these guys have all the fun, or what? We showed you Motor Trend’s recent test of the mighty Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 just the other day, and it looks like the guys and gals weren’t done with the king of the ‘Vettes. With a stunt that’s bred straight out of playground arguments on exactly which [...]

The delicious cocktail of Corvette performance and unique styling isn’t anything new. Coachbuilders have been plopping well-styled rides on top of the Chevrolet Corvette’s chassis for years now, but few have managed to pull it off as well as Anteros. The Californian builder has just pulled the sheets off of two new models—the XTM and [...]

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 [...]
