The Porsche Carrera GT has just officially knocked 15 seconds off of its original Nürburgring time. Its new model-specific Michelin PS Cup 2 tyres are to credit for a staggering 7:12.69 lap, 20 years on from its previous best.
- Nobody would deny that the NFS Most Wanted BMW M3 GTR is a legend, but BMW’s going one further. It’s dressed up a real deal M3 GTR in the iconic livery, and is sticking it in a museum for a bit.
- WHAT THE F*** IS A PORSCHE 🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸 Sorry... we've just had news the Ford Mustang GTD has become the fastest American production car to lap the Nürburgring. It achieved a 6:57.685 laptime which, although admittedly slower than a few Porsches, is no mean feat.
- This Renault Twingo is heading to the Nürburgring 24 Hours. Rauh Racing will run the car in 2026, which is currently in the process of having Clio 172 running gear transplanted into it.
- Someone bought a brand new Dodge Viper in 2024. Wait, what? According to Stellantis' sales reports for 2024, one brand-new example of the V10 sports car found a new home - despite production ending in 2017. We'd love to know which hero bought it.
- Struggling to sleep at night? We might have a solution. Toyota has uploaded a three-hour long video of nothing but pure Lexus LFA engine sounds. Count those V10s as you drift off.
- Ferrari has filed patents for an upside-down, twin-supercharged, hydrogen-powered straight six engine. Our brains hurt. Read more: carthrottle.com/news/ferraris-…
- Press F to pay respects. Forza Horizon 4 has now been delisted from digital storefronts. The end of an era.
- It's time to say goodbye to the A90 Toyota GR Supra. This is the A90 Final Edition, complete with 429bhp, GT4-inspired aerodynamics and a new KW suspension setup. Just 300 are set to be made. No word yet on price, but expect it to cost 'a lot'.
