No Stranger Ranger: The Wildest Ford Pickup on eBay Right Now
http://ift.tt/1RvWQ0D
The Ford Ranger is one of the most mass-produced pickups ever, and so it may surprise many to know that there’s actually a version of the little truck that was made in very, very limited numbers: the Ford SkyRanger, and one of them is on eBay right now.
These trucks started life as 4.0-liter, four-wheel drive, extended-cab Rangers that were transformed into weird convertible/targa mini trucks by ASC (American Sunroof...

Fire Up the PS3 in Anticipation of This SRT Tomahawk Vision Gran Turismo
http://ift.tt/1cobXJH
SRT teased its wild-looking addition to the Vision Gran Turismo collection of sci-fi concept cars for Gran Turismo 6.
SRT made sure to keep some family resemblance in this concept—the thin headlights resemble the LED accent lighting on the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and that hood scoop has a very Viper-esque design.
Of course, when you’re only dealing with digital pixels, you can get wild: This baby is...
Nissan’s Le Mans Livery Is Inspired by a 1990 Record-Breaker
http://ift.tt/1d401gP
Nissan has big plans for its crazy unconventional Le Mans prototype—a hybrid, mostly front-wheel-drive endurance racer that’s about as out-of-the-box as it gets. But the Nissan team hasn’t lost sight of its past, revealing a livery for the No. 21 Le Mans racer that commemorates the 25th anniversary of one of the most astonishing pole-position laps ever turned at Le Mans.
The retro red-white-and-blue livery takes...

Watch Nine Classic Jaguars on the Mille Miglia
http://ift.tt/1LOcdhR
Driving the Mille Miglia is not quite the five-star Italian vacation it appears in Jaguar’s video below. The route is befuddling, the traffic dense, and on top of it all, you’re expected to weave your rare vintage sports car around even rarer vintage sports cars while dealing with a back ache, a sore bum, and melted shoe rubber. We can’t speak to that latter part, however, since we ran the entire route in a 2016...
Second Pace: J-Pace to Join F-Pace As Jaguar’s Second SUV
http://ift.tt/1HADQXT
After years of leaving the SUV business to the Land Rover/Range Rover side of the house, Jaguar announced a while back that it would field its own luxury 4×4, the F-Pace. Previewed by the C-X17 concept [pictured above], the F-Pace is due to arrive in the fall of 2016. Now comes a report from Georg Kacher in Britain’s Car Magazine that says the company is planning to follow up that model with a second SUV offering:...

Which means that driving a street car is simple work for the two-time WRC champ and Porsche test driver, even if that car is the new 911 GT3 RS, a 500-horse, rear-wheel-drive ballistic missile/road-legal track beast. Just check out this...

Ford Offers to License Its Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Patents to Other Automakers

Calling all Chinese brands, Fiat-Chrysler, and other automakers without a developed electric-vehicle strategy: Ford’s got you covered. Starting now, Dearborn will license more than 1650 of its patented and patent-pending EV technologies to other manufacturers.
The goal, according to Ford, is to “accelerate the growth of electrified vehicle technology and deliver even better products to customers.” But unlike Toyota,...

The Koenigsegg One:1 is astonishing.
Named for its one-to-one power-to-weight ratio—1340 horsepower moving an identical number of kilograms, no baloney—you know this thing is going to be a jaw-dropper. Hell, it’s got carbon fiber wheels that weight a mere 13 pounds, and it’ll blast to 220 mph in the space of an airport runway...
Retro as Heck: Porsche Pilfers the Past For 2015 Le Mans Liveries

Like many young men, recently deposed Volkswagen Group Supremo Ferdinand Piëch began his career at the family business. The difference between Piëch and other young men was that the family business happened to be Porsche. During his tenure in Zuffenhausen, he shepherded a program meant to finally bring the company an overall Le Mans victory by exploiting a loophole for 5-liter sports cars. The result was the all-conquering...
