The sound of the new Ford Mustang GT
The new Ford Mustang GT has been shown for the first time when, 10 minutes ago? I know that you can't wait to hear how does this american muscle sounds like, so there you go! On YouTube has already popped up the very first video of the all new GT revving nicely its engine at a Cars and Coffee event in California.

A Ferrari 458 V6? Because REPLICA!
I'm not a fan of replicas, but I admit this one is very well done. For £35.000 you can fool most pedestrians and drive around town in a replica of a Ferrari 458 based on a Ford Cougar. Forget the performance and engine of the real supercar, this replica hides in the front a 2.5L V6 that produces a not-so-exciting 168hp, with an even less impressive 0-60 mph sprint in 8.6s and a top speed of 140 mph.

The Crazy Cart Gymkhana - The Ken Box's way
Most of us have known Ken Block through his driving skills of his epic series of gymkhana videos and we really hope to see more of them in the future! In the mean time we have to enjoy this absolutely brilliant parody of one of Ken's videos made by one of his fans. The car featured in the parody? A Ford Focus WRC.. sort of!

345kph Ford GT shooting flames
It's pretty cool when you know that petrolheads but also supercar owners keep an eye on your channel. This video has been sent by a follower and owner of a 813whp Ford GT, or we should call it a badass american barbecue which sounds utterly insane while shooting giant flames!

Mustang destroys the clutch
Doing a burnout with a powerful RWD car is not so difficult, but it's really awkward when you realize that you're embarassing yourself in front of a crowd ready to film the whole scene. This V8 Mustang tried to show off while leaving a car event, but it fails miserably and smashes the clutch into a thousand pieces the with a very bad noise. Well done, dude!

Hideous Ford GT40 Replica for sale
If you want to buy for an affordable price a piece of american automotive history, you can buy for just 6.800$ a replica of the legendary Ford GT40. Under the body kit lies a 1984 Pontiac Fiero and it doesn't faithfully matches to the style of the GT; this car has a tiny 4 cylinder engine that is linked with a prehistoric automatic transmission. Starting from the fact that most people would never buy a replica, this one looks so be terribly made, the proportions are wrong and if you're planning to buy one (just if you're masochist) make sure to tint the windows, because the interior looks even worse, at least the key ring of the GT looks more real than this car itself.

Jaguar F150?
" What if I take my Ford F150 and I mix it with a Jaguar? It could become a manly pick up with some british style! "
Maybe it was the thought of the owner of this pick up. I certainly know what this car has become, and it's not even remotely good looking or elegant, I don't want to be vulgar, I think you know what it is. A positive thing is that it's prettier than the Gulf Lotus X12 that you have seen recently, but let me say that mixing a Ford F150 with the front of a Jaguar S-Type is everything but a smart idea!

World's fastest street legal car!
The Ford GT is a pretty good supercar, but if you tune it, it can really be badass. Recently, a twin turbo Ford GT with the incredible power of 1700hp has set a new Guinness World Record, by accelerating up to 283.232 mph (455.82 km/h) in a standing mile! With this astonishing result, this Ford GT modified by Performance Power Racing is street legal, and so it's the world's fastest one!
The video of the world's fastest Ford GT didn't showed us much action about the record attempt, so why not, let's take a look at another recent attempt of another modified Ford GT, this time by Hennessey Performance which sets up a top speed record at Texas Mile with a 263.3 mph (423,74 km/h) run. In the video we can enjoy the onboard camera and an external shoot of the GT.

Solberg's WRC crash
This accident could have ended badly, but luckily nobody got injured. The following video shows the onboard camera and aerial shoots of Peter Solberg's crash in his Ford Fiesta WRC during the 2012 Rallye de France. The car jumps into a vineyard and stops its race by hitting an electricity pole that by miracle didn't hit the crowd that was standing very close.

Ferrari 430 Scuderia... Replica!
A Ferrari 430 Scuderia with a 2.5L V6 engine instead of a 4.3 V8 is something strange, especially if it's in the front. During a car event, a fake Ferrari 430 Scuderia showed up, there were even curious people around the car, certainly because it's a very well done replica based on a Ford Cougar, but it's still a fake Ferrari. Just wondering why people spend alot of money to make a replica (trust me, good replicas are expensive) instead of buying a second hand sport car.

A new record at Nürburgring
The power of lightness. Light cars with a good amount of power are little rockets on wheels that can compete with the most expensive and fast supercars, thanks to the favorable power/weight ratio, a few examples are the Ariel Atom and the Lotus Exige. There's a new car in the market that has set a remarkable lap time around Nürburgring, point of reference for the automotive factories from all around the world. The little Formula Ford, moved with a tiny turbocharged 3cyl engine with 205hp has set a very fast lap time of 7 minutes and 22 seconds, making it alot faster than supercars (and even hypercars!) such as the Ferrari Enzo, Nissan GT-R or the Porsche 997 GT2 RS.

Ford Mustang crashes
The fail video of today shows a crash that involves a Ford Mustang and an unaware Peugeot 107 somewhere in Russia. The Mustang comes out the corner with a drift but with a pendulum effect it crashes in the other side of the road, hitting the 107.
