The Ferrari 488 is a drool-worthy machine, and the Spider turns it up to eleven.

2004 HPA Volkswagen R32 on /TUNED
How’s this for an insane Mk4? It’s definitely not your run-of-the-mill R32 with bolt-on mods.
Enjoy!

Chevy C2 Corvette Stingray 427 at Scarsdale
I still maintain, the C2 is still the best looking Corvette of all time. Something about those bold, creased lines.

Jay Leno gets his hands on a Ferrari F40
The F40 is the ultimate Ferrari hypercar, and if you disagree with that, you’re wrong. It turned turbo-lag into an art form, and it breathes fire in a way that a LaFerrari can only manage when it actually catches on fire.
Sure there are faster cars now, but there will always be faster and faster cars out there. The key is being one that is remembered, and the F40 will always be the first road car to top 200mph.
Let’s see what Jay thinks when he gets to live the legend…

Ever Wonder What a 520hp LS3-swapped ND Miata Would Be Like?
This is Flyin Miata’s full LS3 V8 package for the ND Mazda Miata. It costs around $75,000 total, but you get 520hp in a happy car the size of a thimble. Matt Farah, of The Smoking Tire, got to take it for a spin.
Seems like a total riot!

Red Carbon Pagani Huayra at Greenwich
Paganis are majestic machines. The embodiment of the spearhead in modern automotive art, Paganis turn cutting-edge science into a rich experience that people are willing to pay millions to have in their lives.
It’s all in the details, and the way every little peice adds up to make such a spectacular whole. Very few seven-figure cars are able to justify their price tag as obviously as the Pagani Huayra. Everything about it just feels so special, and when you sit inside the cabin, you wouldn’t feel like $2-ish million had gone to waste.
This red carbon Huayra we saw at Greenwich this year had that extra added touch of style. I’ve seen other cars with colored carbon, but the deep red finish over this Huayra’s carbon body was classy beyond belief. It stands in stark contrast to the run-of-the-mill bright orang or green Lamborghini. This carbon red Huayra doesn’t come off as obnoxious like that at all. In fact, when I was first looking at it, it was difficult to find words to describe it. I just knew I was totally blown away.
Enjoy the photos!
The Five Hyper Ferraris On One Track – Jay Leno’s Garage
It’s quite an occasion having all five Ferrari hypercars together, especially on the race track. We’ve actually seen Mr. Lee’s cars at the Quail a few times, and he’s a real nice guy.
