Final Parking Space: 1986 Acura Legend V-6 Luxury Touring Sedan

4 days ago | hagerty.com | Murilee Martin

Since I started writing this series 18 months ago, I’ve been keeping a junkyard lookout for an example of one of Honda’s two most groundbreaking U.S.-market cars: a first-generation (1973–79) Civic or first-generation (1977–81) Accord.
This Low Mile GMC Syclone Is a Performance Bargain

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Sajeev Mehta

There are fast vehicles, but there’s only one GMC Syclone. The mini truck with a turbocharged heart of unrelenting fury came from GMC and Production Automotive Services, a skunkworks initiative that netted the car enthusiast one of best Q-ships of all time. Aside from modified off-road vehicles with souped up small-blocks of the era, the Syclone’s combination of four-corner motivation with 350 pound-feet of torque was unheard of in the 1990s.

Allen Park, Michigan, is home to the giant Uniroyal Tire. Avoca, Iowa, has the Volkswagen Beetle Spider, and Alliance, Nebraska, has Carhenge. France has a car-themed sight next to a road as well, though it’s lesser-known: There’s a Citroën 2CV roadside attraction towering above highway A711 near Lempdes.
The AMC AMX Was More Successful Than You Remember

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Sajeev Mehta

Telltale signs of poor fiscal health are all around us, and one such example is a footnote in the history of the American Motors Corporation. The story goes that one particular annual report to financial stakeholders in 1966 was dripping in red ink, and was summarily delivered to everyone in plain brown envelopes. The messaging was clearly dire, and that’s when a man named Robert Beverley Evans ascended to the rank of Chairman of AMC’s board.
Picture Car Confidential #17: The French Connection

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Jamie Kitman

At Octane Film Cars, the cars we rent to clients in the TV and film industry are typically a combination of those we own and those we don’t—i.e,. other peoples’ machinery. Much as we might wish otherwise, turns out we can’t own everything. So, we are always happy to enlist outside help. It’s a big, beautiful world out there and somewhere, hopefully not too far away from set, someone’s got what we need. Our motto: “If we don’t own it, we can usually find it. Sometimes.”That elusive car can be far away.

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Andrew Newton

“‘The station wagon has been dead for decades,’ they say. Well, they are wrong,” says Jason Cammisa in the latest episode of his Ultimate Drag Race series. And they are wrong, whoever they are, as Cammisa has a group of fast, handsome, and brand-spanking-new German long-roofs on the start line of Willow Run. Vying to be first across the quarter-mile are the 2025 BMW M5 Touring, Audi RS6 Avant Performance, and Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid.
5 (Relatively) Affordable Ferrari Lookalikes with American V-8s

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Andrew Newton

Regardless of taste, it would be tough to look a (prancing) gift horse in the mouth should a classic Ferrari materialize in one’s garage. I mean, who could decline the joys of bright-red ’60s curves, a 12-cylinder engine, and supple Italian leather? A GTO, GTB, or SWB lives rent-free in the fantasies of many car enthusiasts, but they remain just that—fantasies.
Can the 2026 Defender Trophy Pick Up Where the Camel Trophy Left Off?

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Ronan Glon

Defender, which recently became a standalone brand within the Jaguar-Land Rover group, announced an off-road adventure that channels the spirit of the Camel Trophy. It’s called Defender Trophy, because naming a competition after a brand of cigarettes wouldn’t fly in 2025, but the idea is the same: It aims to test the strength of cars and people by putting both through a series of grueling off-road challenges. How grueling? Well, we’ll need to be patient to find out.
Volkswagen Golf GTI Edition 50 Sets a New ‘Ring Record for the Brand

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Ronan Glon

In 2026, Volkswagen will celebrate 50 years of the Golf GTI with a commemorative model that has already proven what it’s capable of. The new Volkswagen Golf GTI Edition 50 lapped the Nürburgring in 7:46.13, a time that makes it the brand’s fastest series-production model around the famously challenging track. Details about the record-setting car are few and far between.
Ford Sent 40 Horses to Le Mans for Mustang Challenge Euro Debut

1 week ago | hagerty.com | Cameron Neveu

“No denying the first couple laps, when we’re all together—just seeing all of our cars warming up on the Mulsanne—it was an emotional moment for me personally.”Fresh out of the drivers’ ‘seat of his Ford Mustang Dark Horse R racer, Ford Motor Company CEO Jim Farley addressed the media, pointing to that moment on Le Mans’ long backstretch that it all set in.
