Michael Schumacher’s 250 MPH Le Mans race car may be turning 20 this year, but you can still see it on well-endowed public roads. Only now it’s a street car. More »

We often joke about Toyota taking its design inspiration from appliances, but this takes the cake. We wonder if the same messy result occurs when you flip over an FJ. [via TCL] More »

One is an Italian supercar. The other is a Hungarian bus. Both are from 1971 — and both use the same rear light cluster. More »

It's hard not to think the new Honda Insight hybrid and the Toyota Prius look like kissing cousins.

The Tesla — at least in prototype form — is so Elise on the inside it hurts, from the dash binnacle to the air vents to the steering wheel — right down to the parking brake handle. Sure, the cars have their differences — allowances made for the differing drivetrains and the like, but they're undeniably dopplegangeresque. Oh wait, the Tesla comes with floormats!? – Mike Spinelli More »
