The Internet has been a boon for car enthusiasts; after all, information about any car ever made is available at a few taps of the keyboard, whenever you'd like.

Official: Ferrari posts record profits on restricted volume 1392838260
Most automakers are after one thing and one thing only: selling more cars. Because, after all, selling more cars means making more money. Right?

The low, trunk-like snout is another imagining of the year's regulations, after the probing proboscides found on the McLaren and in ...
