Awesome Rides

The Ferrari 360 Spider combines awesome handling with incredible performance. DriveWithDave spent time on the road with this rare 6-speed model. Without a roof, every driving sensation is magnified and the exhaust note is a symphony of legend and history.

An ultra-lightweight, 375 hp Exige which can zip from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. A big wing out back and other aero mods give it 440 lb of downforce, and sticky Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 ensure incredible grip. Only 60 will be made, all headed for Europe.

UTVUnderground and MadMedia let off-roader RJ Anderson go absolutely bonkers in a highly-modified 2017 Polaris RZR XP Turbo EPS UTV, taking on treacherous terrain and manmade ramps, culminating in a sideways ride around the WALL OF DEATH, and an epic backflip.

We recently spent a week behind the wheel of FIAT’s latest roadster – which simultaneously pays tribute to the classic 124 Spider and shares bones with the excellent ND MX-5 Miata. Find out what we thought of this Japanese-Italian love child in our full review on 95octane.

A special racing derivative of the phenomenal Audi R8 V10 Coupe, wrapped in track aero, tuned to produce 495 horsepower, and kitted out with a roll cage, and all the requisite safety gear for amateurs to race in the GT4 class.

The first commercially available vehicle from electric car company Kreisel is a replica of the legendary Porsche 910’s street-legal version. The Kreisel Evex Porsche 910e goes from 0 to 62mph in 2.5s, tops out at 186mph and has a 217mi range. The price? $1.06 million.

An simply gorgeous bicycle with a frame handmade from black walnut and spruce wood. Its hollow insides reduce weight, provide vibration damping, and allow cables to be run internally. Available as a frameset or fully built.

Toyota’s compact 4WD concept is both rugged and easy to live with. Its toolbox-inspired design includes a versatile cargo system, hot and cold storage, and nifty touches like a removable water bottle, removable lights, and an armrest that doubles as a sleeping bag.

Pennzoil pays tribute to the end of an era – with some epic footage of Rhys Millen driving the 645hp Dodge Viper ACR, doing what it does best, firing flames from its exhaust pipes, smoking tires, going sideways, and even catching a little air. Fare thee well, Viper.

This unique four-wheeler is somewhere between a motorcycle and a sports car – packing a 250hp, 3.0-liter Ferrari V8 engine, a BMW M3 sequential gearbox, and big grippy tires, but weighing in at just over 1100 pounds. Basically, that means it’ll go fast. Real fast.

Even if you aren’t the boss, you can still drive this beast of a truck and feel like one. GMC’s 2017 offering has a new Duramax 6.6L turbo diesel V-8 with 910lb-ft of torque that hauls with ease and goes off road in total comfort.

David Brown Automotive’s remake of the original Mini. Limited to 50 units, the Mini Remastered also takes cues from the coachbuilder’s own Speedback GT. It’s also equipped with modern comforts such as an infotainment system and a remote key.

Because the 707hp Challenger Hellcat wasn’t enough, Dodge will offer their muscle car with an 840 hp supercharged V8, launching the beast from 0-to-60 in 2.3 seconds, running the 1/4-mile in 9.65 seconds, then driving home after popping wheelies at the drag strip.

We recently headed to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with Chevrolet for a day at their Find New Roads Experience. Along the way, we hit the agility course in the new Colorado ZR2, launched a Camaro ZL1, and did a bucket-list lap of the speedway in a Corvette Grand Sport.

Director Roger Donaldson’s documentary tells the story of the late, great Bruce McLaren, the man who started from humble beginnings, and went on to found the incredible McLaren Motor Racing team, leaving behind a true motorsports legacy after his death at age 32.

Wild Fennec’s upgrade for the classic Land Rover Defender adds an expandable living area in the rear, complete with a kitchen, dining room, sleeping area, and even a toilet. The whole thing can be opened or closed in under 45 seconds.

Jeep borrows a bit of thunder from its Dodge SRT cousins, packing a 707hp Hellcat supercharged 6.2L V8 engine under its hood, and big Brembo brakes. We can’t think of too many other vehicles that can go 0-to-60 in 3.5s, devour off road trails, and tow up to 7,200 lbs.

Beyond its awesome V12, what makes the Ferrari 575 Superamerica special is its rotating hardtop that lies flat with a flip of a switch, and electronically-controlled transparency to vary the light coming in. Our friends DriveWithDave show off this special car in action.

Combining the ruggedness of Toyota’s nearly indestructible HiLux pickup with the playfulness of Tonka toy trucks, this very special concept is ready to take on just about anything, with a 6″ lift, 35″ lug tires, a huge skid plate, LED trail lighting, and a tube frame in its bed for gear.

We’ve yet to even get specs on the new Dodge Challenger Demon, but Hennessey already wants to banish it to purgatory with its custom Camaro ZL1, which packs 1000 bhp, 966 lb-ft. of torque, does 0-to-60 in under 3 seconds, and the 1/4 mile in under 10.

Filmmaker Adrian Bonvento takes us into the pits, and inside the minds of the Stevenson Motorsports team, as they explain some of what makes a pro race team tick. A beautifully-shot short documentary filmed during the 2017 12 Hours of Sebring race.

We went behind the scenes with Mark Levinson to learn about the audiophile grade sound systems they make for Lexus vehicles. There’s no way to convey how amazing they sound without listening in person, but read on to get a sense of just what goes into making these systems so good.

Indian Motorcycles are as old as the sport itself. First produced in 1901, Indian bikes had some legendary riders including Steve McQueen. After spending a day in the saddle of the brand new Chieftain Elite in not-so-sunny San Diego, we can see why.
