SpeedFactory offers an impressive line-up of Dodge Challenger SRT8 tuner musclecars. Starting with the Stage 1 model outfitted with a cold-air intake system all the way up to the Stage 6 model, which features a massive supercharger capable of pumping out 1,000 horses and transforming the SRT8 into a big bad powerhouse of pure delight!.

The 2011 lineup of Ford's Super Duty F-Series trucks may not look all that different from the models on the road today, but a lot has changed under the hood. In fact, in a vehicle segment dominated by talk of horsepower, torque, and towing capacity, the new F-Series Super Duty trucks may just change the game, and make such terms as "inclinometer," "Single-Sequential Turbocharger" (SST), and "compacted graphite iron" (CGI) the new language of heavy duty pickups.

We've been paying a lot of attention to supercars in the past week, mainly due to the Frankfurt Auto Show and a lot of manufacturers pulling back the curtain on their latest creations. And today is no different, because Audi has unveiled their new R8 Spyder. The R8 has garnered an impressive following in the scant 3 years its been around, and with good reason, as it is essentially a top-notch supercar at a (relatively) reasonable price. Now, the R8 is getting the drop-top Spyder treatment and it's about time.

Since the Saab brand was ditched by General Motors, many people didn't expect a new 9-5 to ever hit the streets. But, following the company's purchase by Swedish supercar manufacturer Koenigsegg, there's finally a new one. And it's about time, too. The original 9-5 started production way back in 1997 to replace the Saab 9000, and it hasn't been significantly upgraded at all since that time. Yep, 12 years with no generation update. That seems almost inconceivable in today's market, so let's hope this new one is worth it

Ever see a 87-93 LX convertible parked next to a cherry '65 ragtop. How about a 87-93 LX coupe parked next to a sweet little ole '65 classic coupe? If you did, its hard to ignore the similarities or is it? Contary to popular belief, the 1987 to 1993 LX coupe and convertibles actually resembles the original classic mustang more than you would ever suspect. Since Ford Motor Company opted to void our late model fox body Mustang, of all classic styling queues, it may not be so obvious to most.

In today's auto market, customers are getting more and more focused on getting a reliable vehicle. It would seem that the days of getting a new car every three to five years are gone (at least for the majority of the population), so quality studies and surveys about different vehicles are proving to be crucial in buyers' decisions.

BMW's M performance cars have always had a pretty simple strategy: take the standard car, boost its performance immensely, then put it on sale.
