Before everybody had a phone that’s also a flashlight, some cars had handy built-in lights you could use to poke around the engine bay or underside in a pinch. GM‘s retractable Trouble Light, found in pre-Y2K Chevy trucks and SUVs, is a particularly cool relic of the pre-iPhone automotive era. The Trouble Light was not

If you’re too young to remember the Y2K era, I can sum it up pretty succinctly: Weird. But why tell when I can show? Just look at the picture above. And let me be clear: The Plymouth Prowler was pretty out-there even for the year 2000, but viewing it through the lens of the 2025

There’s a school in Michigan called Northwood University that offers classes in various areas of the automotive industry. It has an Automotive & Mobility MBA program, an auto marketing and management program, and an aftermarket management program. As of Fall 2025, the school will also have a Motorsports Essentials workshop series. Next year, it’s adding

You’re looking at a Mazzei Formula Five—or, rather, the Mazzei Formula Five. It’s a one-off supercar built by David Mazzei, combining a Superlite SL-C kit car body with a homemade five-rotor engine. Strapped to the engine is a 106-millimeter Garret G57-3000 turbocharger, and as you’d expect, it makes some crazy noises. Turns out, it also

You just don’t see weird supercars anymore. You see ugly ones, and shouty ones, and beautiful ones, but nothing that just kind of makes you, you know, tilt your head a bit. The Lamborghini Pregunta, much like the Spanish word for which it’s named, invites questions. Like, “Was this built before or after the Pagani

As we’ve followed the progress of Willow Springs International Raceway’s sale to private equity, we’ve spoken with several members of the local track/racing club community and heard our share of nostalgic anecdotes about this beloved venue. All of them carry the same unspoken message: “Yeah, it was kind of a dump, but it was our

It defies logic that “primitive” should mean “more expensive,” but when it comes to new cars in 2025, that’s pretty much how things shake out. The Ineos Grenadier is a perfect example of this phenomenon—explicitly designed around old-school technology, yet somehow costs more than a high-performance EV with the latest everything. Here’s a deep look

I wasn’t looking for a car lot that sold lifted Pontiac Trans-Am WS6s when I stumbled across this. I was just scrolling on Facebook when a video popped up showing David T’s Camaro and Firebird Auto Center, albeit without the company’s name mentioned anywhere. After seeing the sheer number of cars parked on the property

It’s no secret that Lewis Hamilton’s first season in red overalls has not gone well, which, frankly, was inevitable. If the last 20 years have shown us anything, it’s that former F1 champions do not win at Ferrari. That said, we may still get a sweet road car out of it—or, exactly one designed by

Quick: When was the last time you listened to an AM radio broadcast? OK, fine, when was the last time you did it on purpose? If you drive an EV, the answer very well might be “never.” While that probably says more about you as a consumer (or perhaps how long you’ve actually held a
