Don’t drive the Porsche 911 S/T. That public-service announcement is for the owners of the 911 GT3 and GT3 Touring, two sports cars closely related to the new S/T. Owners of those cars should be delighted with the steering, brakes, handling, and performance of their cars and will remain so provided they don’t get a […]

The Concours d’Elegance in Monterey, California, has seen more unveilings than the dressing room of a bridal shop, and as the 2023 Monterey Car Week recedes in the rearview, we thought we’d look even further back at a notable launch of the past. In 2007, Callaway Cars revealed the C16 Speedster, a uniquely styled, 700-hp

From the January 1996 issue of Car and Driver. You could see this Corvette coming a mile away, and not just because of its retina-ripping red, white, and blue paint. The idea apparently was to take a Corvette in the last year of its model run and turn out a special edition to hook a

Volvo’s core brief for its new EX30 crossover was, well, brief: Build a small, desirable premium electric vehicle with over 250 miles of usable range, and price it under $35,000 (before destination and not including government rebates). So far as we can tell, from a two-day immersion with the cute-ute at Volvo HQ in Sweden,

Once, no American middle-class household was complete without a goldenretriever, a Walkman for each junior Master of the Universe, a swing set gracingthe back lawn, and a station wagon in the garage next to Dad’s sedan. In today’s digital world, only the dog remains a must-have accessory for the bourgeoisie, and the favorite family hold-all

From the October 2023 issue of Car and Driver. On the family-car evolutionary chart, the station wagon slithered out of the primordial ooze to beget the minivan, which the body-on-frame SUV drove to the brink of extinction. Soon enough, car companies realized that all most people want from an SUV is the look, which led

You can argue long and hard whether the best cars are bought or built, and that debate is set to continue into the electric era. On one side is the increasing number of aftermarket options for converting classics to electric power, although often at the cost of butchering a genuine car. On the other are

From the June 1997 issue of Car and Driver. Don’t look now, but the wood-and-leather-lined halls of luxury sport­-ute-dom have been invaded by a ruffian. It’s an ugly, uncul­tured, loud, smelly brute utterly lacking in social graces. This four-wheel-drive vehicle was not conceived as a shooting brake for swells on safari (although plenty of outgoing

There are moments in history when a new contender arrives on the scene and disrupts the entire landscape. Remember professional golf before Tiger Woods? Athletes on the PGA Tour didn’t work out. Heck, they showed up for their round of 18 with a pack of cigarettes and a sixer of domestic beer. Then Tiger arrived

From the February 1997 issue of Car and Driver. Chevrolet has presented new Corvettes that have stimu­lated our cranial synapses with exotic new technology, ele­vated our pulses with bump-and-­grind styling, and sent our adrenal glands into overload with tire­-scorching performance, but this new 1997 model is the first Corvette that presses all of our livable
