This Ferrari F150 Was Made Up By A Noted Fake
A few months back, a tuning company called Milano Torino claimed they were going to make a retro custom car called the “Ferrari 770 Daytona.” That turned out to be vaporware when Ferrari’s lawyers got their website shut down. Now Milano Torino is back with another fake.

This Is You Showing Us Your Best

Luckily, there is no single good answer to any of these question marks, and since the whole point of Kinja is to start a conversation that we can all enjoy, that's exactly…
At Long Last, A New Nissan Titan

Topless supercars have come a long way since Lamborghini first chopped the roof off a Diablo, transforming it from merely sketchy to highly suspect. Back then, convertible versions were just a means to hoover up dumb money, a nod to buyers just barely more likely to take a V12 sports car to its limits than arrive in the south of France without a base tan. But things are different now. Open-top supercars are serious machines with technology up the wazoo (Or is that out the wazoo?) But is Lamborghini's flagship version up there with the most rarified of the über-roofless? We found out.

Show Us The Best Camera Cars Out There

To most people, the name "Mega Bloks" conjures up memories of big, chunky, brightly-colored building blocks in a clear plastic carrying bag - the types of toys meant for young children before they hone their motor skills enough to graduate to LEGO. The brand is thought by many to be second-tier, the "knock off" to the…
Drifting A Formula One Car

Florida Man Steals Golf Cart From Nudist Colony After Failed Lowes…
I have absolutely nothing against Florida at all. It's a nice place with nice beaches. My Grandma used to live there. I went to a great Waffle House in Ocala once. It has Disney World.

Show Us The Best Cars From The Worst Model Year In Automotive History
About two years ago, we asked you which was the worst model year in automotive history for our Question Of The Day.

Come on, we knew all along that the winner can only come from the…
