Car Culture

The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance shows off extremely rare classics every year and there are always some surprises. This year Classic Motor Cars will bring the rarest Jaguar XK120 in existence to showcase at the event.

What’s faster? A real life car or its digital counterpart around the same track?

Welcome to Wednesday Want. Each week, our team will pluck a car from our thousands-strong Car Suggestions forum and give it some time in the spotlight. From the weird to the wonderful, we’ll be covering the full automotive spectrum. You can check out past Wednesday Want entries right here.

We start today off with a video revisiting two of the most potent rally homologation specials the world has seen in the last 20 years.

We’re sure many of you are anxiously awaiting the arrival of GT Sport on October 17. Trust us, we feel your pain and we’re right there with you. Thankfully, we searched the internet for remedies to help scratch the GT itch. Here are some videos from Best Motoring that we think embodies the spirit of GT through and through.

When you think of James Bond, the next thought is probably an Aston Martin DB5. The DB5 will always be one of the most iconic movie cars. With its classic good looks, glorious exhaust note, and coolness off the scale, it’s a dream car for many.

One of the best things about owning a car with a big V8 stuffed under the hood is the sound. Stomping on the go pedal and listening to that glorious roar makes the price you paid worth it. However, while you may absolutely love it chances are your neighbors hate you for it. Ford understands buyer’s plight and aims to fix that with the 2018 Mustang GT.

The Lexus LFA is one of the most brilliant pieces of automotive engineering to date. Over eight years Toyota engineers built the car to perfection. It even continues to be impressive five years later. So why are there still 12 sitting on dealer lots?

What initially seemed a typical driving accident turned into a most bizarre scene in England earlier this week. A Leicester security camera captured nine people vacating a Civic after it rammed into the back of another car.

Suddenly a rare Lamborghini Diablo appears and could be yours for under one million dollars. Costing more than a brand-new Aventador S, this particular Diablo is a collector’s item thanks to a starring film role.

The 1966 Ford GT40 is one of the most iconic cars ever. Synonymous with achievements in motosport, casuals and car fanatics alike can easily identify the shape and curves of the classic. However, a car thief in Iowa clearly didn’t get this memo after attempting to steal a replica.

The Ford F-150 Raptor is one of the most impressive off-road vehicles one can buy off a showroom floor. It’s ludicrous in all the right places and as far as trucks go it’s pretty affordable for what buyers get. So why did someone spend $300,000 on one?

Ah, the joys of driving. Picking up your new car, blasting down the highway, playing your favorite driving tunes and getting punted in the back by a careless driver. Well, maybe not that last part.

We’re sure many Gran Turismo fans took some improbable cars around the Kart Space track in GT6. Well, Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series (LOORRS) pro, Carl Renezeder, did just that in Carlsbad, California.

Fernando Alonso hasn’t quite been at his best since returning to McLaren in 2015. Plagued with numerous reliability issues, the tenure has been anything but a showcase of his driving talent.

Picking up your new Ferrari might be the best day in a petrolhead’s life. For one unlucky chap in South Yorkshire, UK, it quickly turned into one of the worst.

A private team finally gave Viper fans something they’ve waited for: a Nürburgring time.

Sports cars in top shape with low mileage are always in short supply, which makes them sought-after items for collectors and enthusiasts. You can rest assured people will be ready to pay a lot to get their hands on them.

Mercedes is no stranger to making some pretty wild and crazy off road vehicles. The six-wheel drive G63 and Unimog are just a few of its offerings. However, a man named Jürgen Eberle thinks there should also be one more added to the mix. He may have even created the craziest off roader yet.
