After Harley-Davidson bought his Buell brand and then dissolved it, many wondered what American motorcycle icon and engineer Erik Buell would do. Well, as any great visionary would do, Buell hunkered back into his Wisconsin lab to do what he does best: design world class two-wheelers. The result? Erik Buell Racing‘s EBR 1190RX, a more […]
The International Supercar Wars just got a little testier this week, with the pronouncement from a California-based company called Trion Supercars that they were engineering a 2,000-horsepower rubber and asphalt devourer. Dubbed the Nemesis, the wildly curvaceous hypercar takes some styling cues from the McLaren P1, but quickly moves on from there to craft a […]
Just before the Geneva auto show, Jaguar flips the sheets off its brand new super wagon, the XFR-S Sportbrake. Powered by the same fire-breathing V8 that beats inside Jag’s F-Type R (as well as XKR-S, XFR-S and XJR), the 542-horsepower lump is good for 0-60 in 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 186 mph — pretty dazzling numbers […]

Utilizing the new design DNA that is working its way through the Lexus line-up (and most finely executed in the superb IS 350), the RC Coupe features the sharp stamping, beautiful […]
We jump into BMW’s renewed third generation M6 Coupe supercar, just to see if Bavaria’s regained its mojo. With menacing authority — and 580 horses + 500 lb-ft of torque — the carbon fiber crowned sled definitively says yes. The high performance GT is about all you can handle. All images by James Bailey. I’m […]
The prove the off-road mettle of the new 2014 Polaris RZR XP1000 — the most powerful and advanced UTV in the world — UTVUnderground and Mad Media united to produce this very Gymhkana-esque video in the deserts of California. Located at Eagle Mountain — the site of a long abandoned iron mine — the team […]
