VIDEO: The Mustang skates in latest episode of Unleashed

Though we all owned skateboards in our younger years, we can admit that we were never really any good at riding them. That doesn't mean we didn't fantasize about all the great stunts we wished we could perform. And were there any among us who don't remember sitting in the back seat of a car watching the scenery go by at speed and thinking of all the sweet jumps and flips cars should be able to do? Filmmaker Jeff Richter undoubtedly has such memories, and Ford was kind enough to let him unleash those inner fantasies with a ... Read more →

Gah!x2: Kicherer Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG rendered 1 day ago on Autoblog

To put it kindly, we'll call the attempts to tune the appearance of the Mercedes SLS AMG gilding the lily.

VIDEO: BMW M1 in mule-style camo? 1 day ago on Autoblog

For the life of us, we can't figure this. BMWblog has posted a video of what surely looks like an O.G. BMW M1, dressed up in that ubiquitous swirlydelic camouflage du jour and parked on a Munich street. It's either a very clever gag being put on by someone, or something potentially awesome is ...

Gah! MEC Design fantasizes over tuned Mercedes SLS AMG 5 days ago on Autoblog

Say what you will about the retro design of the new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. Some call it a contemporary take on a classic shape, others may deride the lack of originality. But at least it's consistent. Which is a heck of a lot more than we can say for what MEC Design has done to it. The ...

Loma Performance unveils Corvette C6.BlackforceOne 5 days ago on Autoblog

Loma Performance seems to think that its new BlackforceOne Corvette is somehow evocative of POTUS' personal airplane. "Clearly reminiscent," they go so far as to say in their press release. (We think the moniker sounds as if could have been the title of a 1970s action film starring Fred ...

VIDEO: 2010 Dodge Viper ACR makes the rounds at Laguna Seca, sets track record 6 days ago on Autoblog

The Dodge Viper is many things to many people. An object of unparalleled lust to some, a big-mouthed, truck-engined Corvette ripoff to others. And an ankle burner to still others. But no one ever thought of Dodge's V10 quarter-mile thug as a serious track car. Until the Viper ACR showed up. ...

Pull Over: Broward County Sheriff gets a full-dress Challenger R/T 10 days ago on Autoblog

Range-topping Lamborghini Urus rumored anew 10 days ago on Autoblog

So you like the Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV, but you're struggling to justify the price. After all, it may be just as fast as the Reventón, but it only costs a third of that range-topping bull. You like that it's the latest limited-edition hypercar from Sant'Agata Bolognese, but ...

Two Out of Three Ain't Bad: Most Chevy Camaros reportedly being sold with V8 power 11 days ago on Autoblog

It's a sign of the times that most buyers of the new Camaro would go for the V6 and not the V8. At $31,595, the eight-cylinder SS model naturally sells for more than the $23,530 base V6 model. To compound the issue the V6 model costs the auto giant nearly as much to build as the V8 version. ...

Rumormill: 2011 Ford Mustang details leak out 11 days ago on Autoblog

We have to wait a couple more weeks before we're officially "in the know" about the 2011 Ford Mustang, but it appears FoMoCo's secret information dam has a few cracks in it.
