With every new automotive product comes the fine-tuned scrutiny of publications when they put them to the test. Case in point, Motor Trend recently put the new SRT Viper through its paces and pitted it against the current Corvette ZR1. They took it to the infamous Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway where the ZR1 came away with the over-all win at helm of the ever-so-consistent driver Randy Pobst.
The results, despite Randy Pobst hinting at his “…hard time with cars that don’t handle well,” ended up i…

We’ve just taken delivery of two 2013 Lincoln MKZs for our test program. Why two? We bought one of the standard, 231-hp EcoBoost four-cylinder models, as well as the 188-hp hybrid version. We’re curious to see how Ford’s upscale Lincoln brand is approaching luxury with a green twist.
The MKZ is a significant model, representing a potential turning point for the brand. Underscoring the importance of the MKZ: The last 20 years or so haven’t been kind to Ford’s top brand. Our previous blogs have documente…

Here at Hemmings, we love unrestored, original cars – especially when they’re driven regularly. So you know we had a good time putting together the May 2013 issue (#93) of Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car, with a bevy of fantastic survivors from an array of marques.
There’s everything from a 1977 Datsun 280Z to a 1962 Triumph TR4 that’s given its owner 51 years of motoring pleasure. And don’t forget the 1970 BMW 2002 that’s stayed in the family, passed from father to…

It is crazy to think what lengths some people will go to, in order to get what they want. In fact, it's not crazy, it's actually scary. Take this story, for example, that unfolded in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where a man used the signatures of his parents to buy a new GMC SUV, despite the fact that his mother was suffering from dementia, his father was blind and they didn't really have enough money to afford the vehicle… Read more »

With this entry, we continue (sort of) our series of Star Trek Cars, although this one may actually be more deliberately Trekkian in origin than those others. For those unfamiliar with this whole "Borg" thing, I direct
readers to the relevant Wikipedia page:
Borg is a collective proper noun for a fictional alien race that appears in various incarnations of the Star Trek franchise. The Borg are a collection of species that have been turned into cybernetic organisms functioning as drones of the…

Mar.18 (GMM) Although competitive throughout the weekend, Felipe Massa looks set to maintain his role as Ferrari’s ‘number 2′.
The Brazilian was running ahead of highly rated teammate Fernando Alonso in Melbourne until the second round of pistops, when it was the Spaniard called in for service first.
"Felipe should not be at all happy," former Renault boss Flavio Briatore is quoted as saying by Italian media.
There is a degree of frustration, because I was not passed except in the pits.Felip…

The idea was simple: take a standard car chassis and install a hand-made wooden bed so that materials could transported easily. This occurred at the beginning of the 20th century and the idea caught on fast. In fact, it didn’t take long before “pickup trucks” were being built and sold by the millions. Chevrolet was one of the earliest to jump into the marketplace – the year was 1916.
By 1918, Chevrolet was offering factory-designed 2 four-cylinder pickup truck models. Both were passeng…

OrganOx Oxford UniversityThis could double the amount of livers available for transplant and save thousands of lives. Livers for everyone! A new machine can keep human livers warm and functioning outside the body for 24 hours before successfully transplanting them, a team of Oxford scientists announced last week. The breakthrough could double the number of livers available for transplant. Livers are normally kept on ice to slow down their metabolism, a risky process that only buys doctors about 14 hours…

Here in the US, spring is on its way. For some, this brings thoughts of green grass, flowers, and plans for warmer weather activities outside. For car lovers, though, thoughts turn to ripping the winter covers off of their stored vehicles, oil changes, and fluid flushes in prep to start the spring and summer cruising and racing season. The warmer weather also means those looking to finish their project car or those building an upgrade lists can get back into their garage to start the work. If a new engin…
