Drive the Ferrari F2007 in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

The beauty about driving games like Forza 2 and Gran Turismo 5 is that they give us the chance to drive cars we otherwise couldn’t get anywhere near. The latest virtual joy ride to hit the news cycle is the Ferrari F2007, the very same Formula One car that Kimi Raikkonen drove last year to […]

Don’t call it “Dino”: Ferrari bringing new model to Paris

Ferrari officials have supposedly confirmed that their new mini-model is coming to the Paris Motor Show this fall and in keeping with the company line, it won’t be sporting a “Dino” badge when it’s unveiled.
We’ve seen more camo-clad spy shots of the new model undergoing testing in recent months and it’s assumed that the small […]

FCA Ortega Run ‘08: Sunday drive with a few (dozen) Ferraris

Life in Southern California isn’t always sunny and bright. Take last month for instance. When we woke up hoping to tag along on a Ferrari Club of America drive known as the Ortega Run, we were disheartened by the sight of pouring rain. We have learned from past experience that these guys and gals are […]

Novitec Rosso F430 RACE gets in your face

Novitec Rosso is good at making fast things even faster. Such has been the case with its twin-supercharged Ferrari F430s, which pretty much go like stink. Now, with the introduction of the Novitec Rosso F430 RACE, it would appear that any remaining deodorant has worn off. What’s faster than going like stink? Going like stench? […]

Geneva 2008: Mansory displays a few supercar transformations

OK, we’ve seen some of their previous work so we probably shouldn’t have expected much more this time around, but when we heard that Mansory had gotten its hands on an SLR and a Ferrari 599 GTB, we certainly hoped that it would figure out a way to enhance their gotta-have-it quotients. Alas, our prayers […]

Ferrari setting up shop in Japan

Ferrari has wholly-owned local subsidiaries in the United States, Great Britain, Germany, France and China. Yet despite being its second-largest market in the world for years now, Ferrari’s interests in Japan have until now been represented by an independent importer. That’s about to change, as Ferrari is taking matters into its own hands and opening […]

Three year-long waiting list for Ferraris in the UK

Ferrari has been doing a booming business of late, particularly across the pond where the UK is now the third largest consumer of the Italian thoroughbreds behind the United States and Germany. More impressive is the fact that last year Ferrari GB sold 699 cars, compared to 15 years ago when it only sold 128.
While […]

Leakage: BMW M3 Cabrio with “M-DKG”

One enthusiast from the Netherlands described the E93 thusly: “Super vette bak!” We’re pretty sure that translates to “super fat barge,” though the overly-literal “super oily bake” has its own charm. If you’re into cabrios, maybe mutating the phrase to “super phat barge” is more palatable. Our friend from NL was referring to the 200-plus […]

Detroit 2008: Ferrari fills in details on F430 Spider Bio Fuel

Ferrari’s press conference here in Detroit was rather short and to the point. They reminded us that Kimi is World Champion and that the team is busy readying his defense. They also pointed out that the F430 GT is doing a bang-up job in GT2. And then they talked about the street cars. Besides telling […]

What does the future hold for supercars with new fuel economy rules?

As the 2009 Corvette ZR1 was unveiled on the very same day that President Bush signed into law a new energy bill, the obvious question is where do we go from here? The most prominent part of the bill was the first increase in corporate average fuel economy requirements in over two decades. By 2020, […]

Win a Ferrari!

 
Supercar giant Ferrari has never built models quite like these! The Italian legend has teamed up with Lego to produce two stunning replicas.
One of Ferrari’s most prestigious sports machines, the Enzo, is the subject of the kits, which come in two versions. The first, for children aged eight and over, is a 1:17 limited-edition 10-inch […]
