In a world where you can’t even buy an Italian supercar with a gated shifter, Toyota has emerged as the latest champion of the row-your-own approach.

The SEMA show is quickly approaching. This means we are starting to get our first taste of wild concept vehicles from big name manufacturers. One of those automakers is Ford, which is rolling out five custom Mustangs this year.

In previous Wants, we’ve covered some of the greats from Group B. These include the Peugeot 205 T16 and the Toyota 222D. Now joining that list is another legendary rally machine, the Porsche 959 Paris Dakar.

After a teaser at this year’s Geneva Motor Show, BMW has revealed the final form of its new X7 SUV.

If you were hoping to see a fighter pilot drive a car at 1.3 times the speed of sound, you’re going to have to wait a little longer.

In 1968, the Ford GT40 won its first 24 Hours of Le Mans under a private team. To mark the 50th anniversary of this occasion, Superformance will rollout an honorary car at SEMA 2018.

Earlier this week we heard about a new race series focusing on female drivers called the W Series. Now we’re getting our first look at the calendar, and its partnership with Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM).

Germany’s premier touring car series, the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, is set for an injection of British glamor for the 2019 season. Aston Martin, known for GT and Le Mans racing, is heading to the series in place of departing Mercedes-Benz.

Mitsuoka is probably a company you’ve heard of before, but not necessarily for a good reason. It’s made some simply hideous vehicles (such as the Orochi), so when there’s a new one, we clench in dread.

Sim racing is getting to the point where it blurs the lines between the real world and the digital one. It often begs the question, is sim racing a motorsports discipline? Thankfully, we now have an answer — at least in one country.

Four pots, inline sixes, V8s, and V12s; there’s no shortage when it comes to engine choices. However, there’s one that’s less conventional – the Wankel engine. That’s why for this week’s Want, we’re focusing in on this unique design and one of its ultimate applications.

Despite motorsport being one of the most gender-blind sports possible, the sight of a woman in a race car in a top series is unusual.

When Aston Martin took the cover off the Valkyrie in 2017, we thought it was pretty wild. Now after more than a year in development, we’re getting our first taste of its singing voice.

This past February, we showed you the forever-in-development Aspark Owl. Now the car is making another appearance and there are a few changes. But despite those differences, it still holds on to the mantra of “the more things change, the more they stay the same.”

In 1968, Holden won its first race at Bathurst. Now 50 years later GM is celebrating the anniversary of its Australian company’s success with a new concept vehicle.

Over 15 million. That’s how many 3 Series BMW has sold since the model’s introduction in 1976. So to call this, the seventh generation, an important new model is an understatement.

Electrification is the hottest trend for automakers right now. However, this leaves many enthusiasts to wonder what will happen to vehicles like hot hatches. Thankfully, Skoda’s latest concept might put some minds at ease.

The French have their fair share of unusual cars. But for the most part, it’s the standard affair of Peugeots and Renaults. One little-known maker stands out though, and if you’re a fan of Gran Turismo 2, you might recognize it. That maker is Venturi.

A little while ago, GTPlanet reported on a poll of the greatest movie cars of all time.

Audi Sport has been successfully campaigning its second-generation R8 race car for three seasons. Despite a number of titles and trophies, for both professional and amateur drivers, Ingolstadt felt it was time for a change.
