Lowriders — and we don't mean low-rise jeans — are custom cars that cruise low to the ground, and so slowly, so that onlookers can get a good view of the paint job, the fantastic suspension, and most importantly the driver showing off his or her good looks.
We've all dreamed of our perfect Italian vacation, spending days eating delicious food, drinking incredible wine, and basking in both the country's beauty and history. And also sleeping in a circular bed, in a dark room, surrounded by Ferraris pointed at you, of course. If that's your dream, then you're in luck because the Ferrari Museum is now listed on Airbnb.
Somewhere in England, Gordon Murray is clenching his fists and gritting his teeth at this 1995 McLaren F1 that's heading to auction with RM Sotheby's. He won't be mad because the owner is selling it, nor will he be bothered by the projected $20 million price tag. No, instead, Murray will be mad because, with only 254 miles on the odometer, no one's been driving it!
TheChildren's Museum in Holyoke, Massachusetts is creating future gearheads with an awesome new exhibit designed to teach kids about cars. It's called the Automotive TECHnician Center and it not only teaches young kids about cars, it allows them to get hands-on with a real car, see how it works, and even learn how to fix it. Fortunately, the museum doesn't teach them about the horrors of spending weeks trying to figure out the cooling issue of an E36 3 Series, otherwise, it might scare them off.
There’s a new breed of motorsport coming, and the only human involvement is far away from the cars. The Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League (A2RL) is exactly what it sounds like: autonomous racing in front of a 10,000-strong crowd at the Yas Marina Circuit, and streamed live online.
When O.J. Simpson attempted to elude police in a now-infamous white Ford Bronco, he likely wasn’t thinking that it would someday end up in a Tennessee museum that was designed to look like Alcatraz.
On April 14, 1927, Swedish entrepreneurs Assar Gabrielsson and Gustaf Larsson produced the first example of their first car, the Volvo ÖV4. The open-topped car rolled off the assembly line, an engineer put it in first gear, and… the car rolled backward.
We recently said goodbye to the R8, but for a few years, Audi toyed around with the idea of making another dedicated performance machine. Between 2010 and 2013, the Four Rings worked on a sports car concept under the "Skorpion" internal designation. We discovered the intriguing supercar at the August Horch Museum in Zwickau, Germany.
