For 2015, Subaru completely redesigned the WRX and WRX STI, and they just might be the best Subaru sedans ever built. With a relatively low asking price, ample power, and race-ready handling, the 2015 WRX and WRX STI definitely improve upon the previous generation Impreza WRX and WRX STI. However, despite the...

eBay Listing: 1966 Lotus Elan Series 2 “Simplify, then add lightness,” was Colin Chapman’s philosophy, way before minimalism became commonplace. “Adding power makes you faster on the straights, subtracting weight makes you faster everywhere.” Essentially what Mr. Chapman understood was less weight is a huge principal...
eBay Listing: 1967 Alfa Romeo Duetto “Sexy” is a very subjective word frequently applied to people, but it also describes the curves of the Alfa Romeo Duetto or Spider. Sure it could apply to other cars too but for us there is a romanticized relationship with Italian car manufacturers. They have a passion that is hard...

eBay Listing: 1949 MG TC Roadster A wise mechanic once said, “Older classic cars and their engines are supposed to leak oil, smell bad, and go forth screaming into the modern age.” We couldn’t agree more with that sentiment, because there is a certain charm that comes with classic car ownership. If anything we’d only...

Dale Jr. would finish...

eBay Listing: 2012 McLaren MP4 12C While the McLaren P1 has lately been generating a lot of press, with its extra electric engine, to our minds the MP4 12C McLaren is still the tops.

eBay Listing: 1967 Fiat Dino Spider 2.0 Passion, it is something a Ferrari has in spades, but does that same amount of passion go into Ferrari’s lesser models like the non-V12 cars?

eBay Listing: 1961 Chevrolet Corvette LS3 Pro Touring Custom Interior Corvettes are great whether unmodified or highly modified.
