Lexus is returning to the two-door game with their RC Coupe, set to premier at the Tokyo Motor Show later this month (November 20th).

What do you get when you stuff a high-revving Ferrari V8 engine into vehicle the size of a GoKart, and run the power through a BMW M3’s transmission straight to gargantuan tires (315 mm rears, 285 millimeter up front)? Why you probably get death, but a helluva fun way to find it. The French made […]
Ahead of its official 2013 Geneva Motor Show debut, images have leaked of Lamborghini’s latest supercar. The Veneno Roadster is obviously a topless version of the Veneno coupe, which is itself mostly based on the Aventador and its firebreathing 6.5-litre V12 engine.

I’m […]

Sure, why not. That’s why we can appreciate The Gentleman’s Guide to Racing — a project/website/collective headed by Michael […]
British automaker Caterham unveiled its brand new roadster at the at the Singapore Grand Prix this past weekend. Like the VUHL 05 and Mastretta MXT before it, the Caterham AeroSeven Concept is an ultra-lightweight speedster aimed directly at the racetrack.
