Apparently, 425 horses for a sports sedan just isn't enough anymore. The BMW M3 has its work cut out for it due to the likes of the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG (503 hp), the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio (505 hp) and now the nuclear Jaguar XE SV Project 8 Collector's Edition with a stratospheric 592 horses under the British hood.

We imagine it's easy to waste your money when you're filthy rich. Stupid things like diamond-encrusted toilet seat covers, shirts woven from real gold, and those $10,000 Apple Watches all seem like money gone bad. And then there are custom cars, not all of which qualify as good choices, but we found one that certainly is. It's called the SP275 RW Competizione, and this one-off is about as tasty as it gets. It was just unveiled at the Ferrari Finali Mondiali event in Daytona.

Those holiday car sales commercials have us wondering, "Do people actually give cars as Christmas presents???" We guess the answer is yes, considering the fact that we've heard of such instances (though we've never seen the automotive gift giving in person). So, with the holiday car deals going on right now, allow us to suggest our recommendations for the best gift cars in each segment, so you don't have to do any research whatsoever (we're that good).

Blackened exterior bits on a car turn an otherwise benign vehicle into something sinister. Now, Hyundai is getting into the game with the newly redesigned Tucson, which already looks pretty great to begin with. The 2017 Tucson Night Edition showed up at SEMA this week, and we like what we see.

The 2016 SEMA aftermarket show should be pretty darn entertaining this year, and two good reasons to pay attention to the show come from Mazda. The automaker has a pair of Miatas that are quite different but equally as enticing to anyone who likes sexy sports cars. We love the MX-5 Miata and any version of the car is going to catch our attention, but the Mazda Design Americas team really has done an amazing job with these two cars. They're downright beautiful.

The DeLorean DMC-12 has remained popular in the public sphere, and now the DeLorean Motor Company is back (without its long-deceased founder, John DeLorean, of course). Under new ownership, the company is now taking a limited number of pre-orders for its DMC-12 replica car.

Now, after months of teaser trailers and news about Amazon Prime's new car show, The Grand Tour, their full official trailer has been released, and it's fantastic. Not only does it show exotic cars in exotic locations, it also shows what made Top Gear such a great show to watch: the humor and chemistry between the three hosts. The Grand Tour does what it says and takes the show from one great locale to another, with adventures that will rival or outdo their old show.

Just when we thought the mid-engined Porsche Cayman S was pretty much the perfect sports car, Porsche decided to up and change it for the 2017 model year, not simply happy with giving it a new design and a new name, it went and swapped out engines on us. Here are four important things to know about the awesome 718 Cayman S, a car that you can't possibly exploit fully in terms of driving prowess. Face it. You're not that good. It is.

When the Mazda RX-Vision Concept showed up at the 2016 Tokyo Motor Show, it was a jaw-dropper. The long red sports car looked like a hyper-exotic, rather than the rightful follow-up to the rotary engine-powered RX-7 and RX-8. Everything about the car screamed exclusivity, and we didn't read a single line on the interwebs that criticized Design chief Ikuo Maeda's masterful execution.

Today, our transportation system is going through another interesting change due, once again, to technology advancements. One that involves the decline of the auto industry in the typical sense. Technology has evolved and is continuing to evolve allowing people to move about the world without actually owning or in many cases driving a car.

There are only a handful of things we'd change about the fantastic Mazda3, and we're picky people. Now that we've gotten that off our chests, we can say we pretty much love this handsome compact and the way it drives. But Mazda's not totally happy with it, either, because they've given the 3 some improvements for the new model year. The 5-door hatchback and 4-door sedan get a facelift and a nifty gadget for better handling.

Academic Motorsports club Zurich set a new record for the fastest 0-100 kph (a little over 60 miles per hour). To show this off, the group put together a silly little video showcasing the car and the club's sense of humor. We like everything about this, the car, the record-breaking run, the goofy, Dollar Shave Club-esque video.

Jeep's flagship SUV, the Grand Cherokee, has a long history of being a competent machine both on and off pavement. The latest iteration of this vehicle is no different. Sporting four different engine options, three different 4x4 setups and a plethora of optional packages, the Grand Cherokee can be had in eight different trim levels if you count the Grand Cherokee SRT. This versatile machine can be outfitted to meet your needs just as long as you don't need a third row of seating.

When most people think compact sedan, they think of Honda, Toyota, Hyundai or Kia, but Chevrolet decided in 2008 that had to change. The Bowtie brand produced the Cruze and tossed it in the compact car mix. To many people's surprise, the Cruze was not only a competent vehicle, it was actually one of the best in the segment.
