America has never had a car quite like Cadillac’s burly CTS-V. In sedan form there is no Yankee rival; the Chevy SS doesn’t even come close. And even the Germans, with all their prodigious RS4s and M3s and C63s, unexpectedly tinkled their Lederhosen when Caddy first unveiled the Corvette V8-powered performance machine. Bristling with 556-horsepower and […]

The Z06 was born in 1963 as an option package on the iconic “split-window” Corvette, and was then resuscitated in 2001 for the C5 generation Vette. Developed by Corvette’s engineer and racing advocate Zora Arkus-Duntov, the idea of the original Z06  was for GM to offer a modified Vette package out of the factory for […]

It’s like a stepping into a time machine. Marty McFly skipping through the decades, the vehicle of choice not a DeLorean DMC-12 but rather a Corvette — one gleaming white specimen morphing from generation to generation. The concept is genius, and frankly astounding that no other automaker has offered it before: the opportunity to test […]

While the ultra lux Pebble Beach Concours D’Elegance may be this past weekend’s most renowned event, the entire week is stuffed with games and distractions for the stupendously wealthy. That includes the Gooding Auctions on Sunday, the Quail Gathering on Friday and perhaps the most entertaining of them all the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at the […]

We were lucky enough to be at Pebble Beach this weekend when Cadillac unveiled its latest design study, the Elmiraj. Well it wasn’t actually at the Concours d’Elegance at Pebble, but rather at the renowned Tehama Golf Club a couple nights prior — but you get the point. Overlooking the gorgeous dusk-washed Carmel Valley, the […]

One of the best values in the global sports car pantheon, Chevrolet’s Corvette has long stood at the apex of American performance. And while the statline of the Vette has always remained top tier, the car’s styling has left a lot to be desired since its long-nosed C3 bodystyle from the 1970s. Well now GM […]

Cadillac  has decided to take its quite stunning Converj concept from 2009 (which we covered way back when) and move it into production, a very big announcement from GM’s luxury division. Another smart power play from Caddy, who really seem to be hitting on all cylinders at the moment — from the knockout punch of […]

Don’t ever really like to get too crazy with the pie-in-the-sky concepts, unless it’s really something truly exceptional. Such is the case with this menacing vaporware concept by Circassian designer Kasim Tlibekov. It helps that he’s chosen to put his talents on the Pontiac Firebird, one of America’s muscle cars of the highest order — […]
