Rinspeed has resurrected the Lotus submarine-car from the James Bond movie "The Spy Who Loved Me", but this time it’s real.

This is the episode of Fifth Gear we’ve all been waiting for, the one where Tiff Needle takes the new Aston Martin DBS supercar for a spin

Honda's EVO6 concept bike that was unveiled at the Tokyo show in October could well be making its way into production.

When the wraps came off the all-new Subaru Impreza at the New York Auto Show earlier this year, the covers had barely hit the floor when enthusiasts began asking about the STI version — the closest thing to a street-legal World Rally Championship (WRC) car.

It's an attempt to inject some newness into an aging car without spending the big bucks to give it a full redesign.
