In 1962, Plymouth moved the Belvedere on the then-new B-body platform and turned it into a mid-size car. When the intermediate was redesigned for the 1965 model year, Plymouth introduced a more premium version called the Satellite. Two years later, the division unleashed the even more luxurious GTX. The latter was more than a Satellite with fancier features. It also came with a high-performance V8 engine as standard. It was essentially a premium muscle car.

There is still money to be made in the C8-generation , and we’re not talking about the range-topping ZR1 or ZR1X versions, but the lesser flavors, or, in this case, the base model that adds the Stingray suffix. Sure, it can be a gamble to try and make money on any ride, but this dealer is confident that it will turn the pictured ‘Vette into a nice profit. According to the ad, the vendor bought this car in May 2026, and they have just listed it for grabs as part of an ongoing auction on Cars&Bids.

The most powerful series-production road car from Aston Martin is facing a safety recall for brake master cylinder seals that may deform under certain driving conditions. In this event, any sort of excessive brake pressure can overheat the brakes. When the seal fails, the brake fluid for the applicable diagonal circuit will not be released back into the reservoir once the brake pedal is released.

It’s been a while since I’ve last released some diecast cars from their plastic prisons. I haven’t even removed the Tomica I unboxed recently from my desktop yet. And with things going so slow, I’m not keen on buying any new tiny cars soon. I’ve already asked several people I know to help me find last year’s Ferrari F50 for a reasonable price. But “reasonable” doesn’t have the same meaning for everyone. I’m not paying more than $15 for it, as I’d rather just wait for the next variation instead.

Chrysler is a shadow of its former self, and Dodge isn’t too far behind, either. But there’s still hope for them, judging by the investments and new model introductions over at the Jeep and Ram cousins. Jeep recently announced it was reporting for duty: the all-new Wrangler and Gladiator Sarge special editions were created in honor of America’s 250th anniversary and the link between Jeep and the Allied victory in the Second World War.

Ever before it was launched at the end of 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope promised to revolutionize our understanding of the Universe. It rapidly did that, including by discovering something we were oblivious to before the Webb came along: little red dots.

There's no sense in trying to reinvent the wheel – not because innovation isn't good, but because the wheel is perfect as it is. But if you're going to try and do something different about a product that's been around for decades and that's being perfected every year, you should definitely pull up your big-boy pants and go all out. That's what Forest River did, or hopes it did, with the brand-new Airelume series of travel trailers.

Already facelifted three years ago, the current generation of the Cayenne will undergo a second refresh in 2027. Based on this barely camouflaged prototype of the supremely capable Turbo specification, many of us will find it hard to differentiate between the second revision and the first one. The only visible camo is on the front and rear lights, front grille, front bumper side intakes, and the corners of the rear bumper.

BMW has offered electrified M vehicles for years, including of the plug-in hybrid and EV varieties. However, a fully-fledged M GmbH model with batteries only is missing. No worries, or much to your chagrin – depending on your POV – it won’t take long before BMW sends a completely electric M car to dealerships. We’ve known that for months already, as the company has teased the upcoming all-electric BMW M3 for a long time.

The needs of war have often pushed humans into getting creative and making weapons and weapons platforms out of, well, pretty much anything. Just remember, for instance, the images of civilian pickup trucks being turned into machine gun posts or even rocket launchers. It almost never happens, though, for such a conversion to be made right from the factory floor.
