Of all the variants of the Porsche 356, few are as rare or interesting as the Carrera models. Right from the start, the name Carrera referred to special racing models that offered high performance and a host of mechanical differences from the standard series of factory cars.
The ambitious engine of the Porsche Carrera was first introduced in 1954, only six years after Porsche production began. ...

A renowned engineer and racing driver, Donald Healey made his debut as a manufacturer in 1948 with a coupé (Elliot) and a roadster (Westland) powered by a 2. 4-litre Riley engine.

That's exactly what the Giulia Ti Super is, which takes the qualities of the 1900 Ti Super to the extreme by pushing the concept to the extreme: lightweight bodywork, a vitamin engine, a more rigid low-profile chassis and 189 km/ h top speed. Built to only 501 units over two years, the most desired - and falsified! ...

The first Grand Touring Lotus, the Elite represented an important step in the brand's history. It brought Lotus fame, even if the car was not financially profitable.

There ...

M is for MOTORSPORT
Audi has the Quattro, Mercedes the 190 Evoluzione, BMW the M3 E30: three 1980s models that marked the beginning of a fine tradition of sporty mid-size cars, equally at home on the track and on the road.
In BMW's case, however, the first M3 is considered to be not just the mother of all M3s, but of all Ms in general. For even though it arrived a year after the first ...

In 1974 a new era began at Porsche. At the same time as BMW and its 2002 Turbo, the first production 911 with a turbocharged engine appeared. Its name: 911 "Turbo", or "930" for those who know it well. But unlike the BMW, which remained without descendants, the Porsche 911 Turbo was to be the initiator of a great lineage. 50 years later, let's take a look at this true automotive legend.

The small Bristol-powered racer, designed by John Tojeiro in the early 1950s, was a great success in competition with Cliff Davis. AC Cars, renowned for its sporty models but with an ageing range, was looking for a new model and took a keen interest in Tojeiro's small car and decided to put it into production in 1954, under the name Ace. The Tojeiro bodywork was virtually a carbon copy of the ...

1958 saw the appearance of the HK 500 coupé (type HK), regarded as the culmination of the series. Behind its now-familiar physiognomy, whose double vertical headlamps set the standard in Stuttgart, was a powerful 5, 907 cm3 Chrysler V8 engine with automatic gearbox, the Pont-à-Mousson mechanical gearbox being optional. Dunlop disc brakes were fitted as standard a year later (type HK 1), while a ...
