May 14th, 2015 |
|
We’ve already learned a smattering of details about Nissan’s GT-R LM NISMO endurance racer that’s set to debut at Le Mans. It’s kind of a weirdo: A twin-turbo V-6 powers the front wheels, and a spate of very outside-the-box design decisions give it a shape unlike anything else. Now Nissan is tipping its hand ever […]

May 14th, 2015 |

May 14th, 2015 |
|
It would appear as though Ford VP of design Moray Callum wasn’t kidding when he told us at the GT supercar’s 2015 Detroit auto show reveal that “the styling is 95 percent complete.” Our spy photographers managed to track down the first 2017 Ford GT prototype as it left Ford’s Dearborn headquarters, and aside from tailpipe extensions for emissions-testing […]

| #TBT: Driving an Aston Martin Lagonda from Atlanta to Chicago |
May 14th, 2015 |
|
This little expedition into the inconsequential all came about because I said “No thanks” to an all-expense-paid week in Paris with a side trip to Geneva.
