Is the Ferrari F40 Worth $1.3Million?

To commemorate the 40th birthday of Ferrari, they released a 2.9-litre, twin turbocharged V8 supercar.

The Jeep Wrangler Truck Is Coming!

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen a truck version of the Wrangler. Nearly three decades in fact!

Alongside it will come a new Wrangler with the original SUV design, too. Rumours say it could be a hybrid.

Dealership Markups Are Getting Ridiculous!

We all know how bad dealerships can be when it comes to mark ups, but this is pushing it! A dealership in New Jersey has a Honda Civic Type R for sale at a price of $47,463!
