"but if an engine were there" What runs exactly? Adobe Photoshop it appears.

And then there's that engine under a glass cover. The show car has no running gear, as it's just a design study, but if an engine were there it would be one they'd want to show off. 12

That sound you heard was the market value of C5 and C6 vettes dropping.

fake plastic, like most of the car. Sad Panda.

"This is coming straight from the top," Toyota designer William Chergosky tells me about their jaw-dropping surprise Toyota FT-1 sports car concept. "This is to prove that we're not a vanilla company anymore."

Ah. There's the big question. Based on a leaked spec sheet we got a few months ago, the WRX STI will be using a 2.5-liter four-cylinder instead of the WRX's new direct injection 2.0-liter turbo, itself derived from the motor in the BRZ and FR-S.

You'd be hard pressed to find many things wrong with the outgoing WRX STI. With a six-speed manual, 305 turbocharged horses, and one of the most potent all-wheel drive systems around, it's a first rate performance car.

This may be the last year that no one from Jalopnik goes to CES given how many car stories were there, even if only a handful of them were that interesting.

You're on notice, BMW M4. The 2015 Lexus RC-F is here to put some fear into you, both with its potent V8 engine and that terrifying spindle grille.

Yesterday we saw pictures of an amazing crash where a driver survived after his Ford Ranger did a barrel roll off a bridge and into a lake. Here's the video and it's as nuts as you'd expect.

Or more likely more it to 15 years.

Simple, 809,918 of those sales were in China. China loves Buicks in the same way that Germans love Hasselhoff and Austrians love taking people hostage.

Our new goal is to hang with Vice President Joe Biden and see his thoughts on some bitchin' rides.

FYI- a WRX trunk swap is a common fix for STi owners who think the wing is a bit much. Plenty of WRX owners dying for a giant wing.

Every time I see that wing- "Its Juvenile"
