| 2015 Chrysler 200 2.4L Returns 35 MPG Highway – Plus 80 New Photos and 2 Videos Posted: 24 Mar 2014 05:30 PM PDT  From a technological-feature perspective, the all-new 2015 Chrysler 200 is important for two main reasons: it's the world's first mid-size sedan fitted as standard with a 9-speed automatic transmission and the first 200 to be available with all-wheel drive. The latter features an automatic fully disconnecting rear axle, which improves fuel economy by reducing parasitic loss when all-wheel drive is not needed. Read more »    |

| Spied: Mercedes-Benz CLA 45 AMG Gets Roomier with Shooting Brake Version Posted: 24 Mar 2014 01:25 PM PDT  Perhaps one of the untold reasons why automakers call sporty-styled saloons with slanted rooflines "4-door coupes" is to hint at the restricted coupe-like headroom for rear passengers and to some extent, the luggage area. Mercedes plans to, if not correct; at least improve these shortcomings on the CLA with the introduction of a Shooting Brake model, which is Benz-talk for a stylish estate. Read more »    |

| Just Another Day in Dubai: Maserati GranTurismo with Gold Wrap and Swarovski Crystals Posted: 24 Mar 2014 10:32 AM PDT  In a way, I understand why this Dubai resident chose to apply a gold wrap to his Maserati GranTurismo and to adorn it with Swarovski crystals; it's because no one would have ever noticed his car if he had it how it left the Modena assembly plant… Read more »    |

| Renault and Caterham’s Sports Car Project Rumored to Go Down the Drain Posted: 24 Mar 2014 09:34 AM PDT  The last time we heard about the Renault-Caterham partnership, things weren't going really well. Since the project to jointly develop a sports car started in 2012, progress was delayed by Renault's decision to revise the initial design of its upcoming Alpine sports car. Caterham wasn't thrilled at all with the decision, as this means its own version of the car had to be modified. Read more »    |
| Road Rage Driver Goes from Macho Man to Runaway Stooge in 2.0 Seconds Posted: 24 Mar 2014 08:59 AM PDT  Yes, you can count this as a fail, but only for one of the two drivers involved in the following road-rage incident. It's not clear from the shaky cell-phone (?) footage why these two drivers stopped before the exit of a mall parking lot, but the man in the white t-shirt who came out of the black, older-gen Honda Accord with the broken rear window was clearly provoking the calmer muscle car driver.

| Fast & Furious 7 will be Made With Paul Walker Lookalikes and CGI Posted: 24 Mar 2014 07:13 AM PDT  Because that's exactly what the world needs right now – the Fast Five movie (plus two) with forced plot twists, no co-star and an animated character. Granted, you'll still see Paul Walker's face and body in the film, planned to hit theaters across the US on April 10, 2015, but it won't really be him half the time… Read more »    |

| New Renault Twingo Aims for Second Spot in Class, in Europe Posted: 24 Mar 2014 06:20 AM PDT  Not a lot of people, aside from patriotic Italians, actually think about buying Fiats these days, the only exceptions being the 500 and Panda that are doing quite well – the two models came first and second in their segment in Europe last year, followed by the VW Up! and the now-defunct front-wheel drive Renault Twingo.

| New Porsche Boxster and Cayman GTS in 62 Photos, Plus U.S. Pricing Posted: 24 Mar 2014 05:55 AM PDT  If you can swallow the $11,400 premium over the Boxster S (MSRP: $62,100) and Cayman S (MSRP: $63,800), the new GTS versions of Porsche's base roadster and coupe models are the ones to gun for in the series, at least for now and until Porsche cooks up something even more sizzling.
