Dec 14th, 2015 |
|
Audi delivered 27,000 copies (worldwide) of the first-generation R8—a massive amount by supercar standards but still a pittance in the grand scheme of things—so seeing one is an instant mood-lifter.

When Battista “Pinin” Farina founded the design house that bears his name in 1930, Italy was in the thrall of fascism and India was still nearly two decades away from winning its independence from Great Britain.

Dec 14th, 2015 |
|
Pro Touring cars—a.k.a. “restomods”—have become a passion-fueled art form of late, and honestly, they don’t get better than SpeedKore’s stunning ’70 Dodge Charger-based “Tantrum.” Done by the same Wisconsin-based shop that produced an unforgettable 1970 Plymouth Barracuda for the Furious 7 movie, the Tantrum was built to showcase SpeedKore’s breadth of talent with materials and […]
