| GM Internal Audit: One Ugly Mess |
Jun 11th, 2014 |
|
General Motors was clueless, right up until February, about how many cars to recall for faulty ignition switches because employees couldn’t run meetings or complete what even the most half-assed high-school student learns to do—a basic research report. The 325-page internal audit from former U.S. attorney Anton Valukas, hired by CEO Mary Barra in March […]

| Don Sherman’s Excellent Back-Seat IndyCar Thrill Ride |
Jun 10th, 2014 |
|
There wasn’t a dandelion in sight and I was not chauffeured by Mario Andretti, but in every other respect my two laps around Belle Isle in the back seat of an IndyCar was one of the better thrills I’ve experienced sitting down. Six of these $500,000–$750,000 Honda Dallara open-wheel two-seaters exist to provide joyrides at […]

Jun 10th, 2014 |
|
Officially still a concept but a sure bet for production, the Infiniti Q50 Eau Rouge—named after the treacherous and iconic corner at the Spa-Francorchamps race circuit in Belgium—may be hand-built, with quantities in the low hundreds and a likely six-figure price tag.

| Stirred, Not Shaken: Porsche 911 Carrera S Martini Racing Edition Adds Decals, Not Power |
Jun 10th, 2014 |
|
In last year’s edition of the evergreen 911-vs-Corvette comparo, we noted, “With its outrageous styling and bawdy exhaust note, the Corvette is pure performance art. It’s new and it’s impossible to ignore, so the 911 simply disappears in its presence.” Some Porschephiles no doubt felt slighted by this assertion. Porsche itself may have as well, […]

Jun 10th, 2014 |
|
For anyone who’s spent time at the helm of a Ford Econoline/E-Series over the decades, there have been many things to deal with: a steep climb into the cabin, oceans of featureless plastic dash and door trim, truly awful seats, and, under the hood, wheezy V-8 and V-10 engines that were more thirsty than thrusty.

| Toyota’s Incredible Reskinnable Electric Kid Car Is Back, Awesome as Ever |
Jun 10th, 2014 |
|
Two long years ago, we highlighted one Toyota’s most interesting recent projects, the Camatte, when it debuted at the 2012 Tokyo auto show. Sounding like a cast-off Oldsmobile nameplate from the late 1970s, the Camatte is actually a pint-sized rolling chassis upon which children (with totally cool parents) could hang interchangeable body panels. When it […]
