Subaru Canada has introduced the new 2015 Subaru BRZ Aozora and its all blue sky. Should you buy the new model?

Yesterday we took a close look at the pricing and options for the 2015 Ford Mustang GT Premium Fastback and today, we price out the more affordable non-Premium GT Fastback, a model that packs all of the power and none of the frills so for those looking to go fast on a budget – this is your car.

Since the supercharger Hellcat Hemi was introduced for the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT, we have talked about the likelihood of seeing that monster motor in the Dodge Charger, the Chrysler 300C and the Dodge Viper, but we have failed to consider the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT – which would be the most powerful production SUV in the world.

After learning so much about the current Chevrolet Camaro and Corvette engine lineup over the past year, it seems like a fitting time to look back at an interesting list of engine name trademarks filed last year – revisiting my predictions from early 2013 and looking towards possible future engines.

While we have previously looked at the basic pricing breakdown for the 2015 Ford Mustang in all trims, the full configurator for the next generation Mustang is live on Ford’s site – giving us a chance to price out our dream 2015 Mustangs and begin trimming expenses for the big purchase.

The new Hellcat Hemi will make the 2015 Dodge Challenger one of the most powerful cars sold in America and that supercharged V8 could make the Dodge Charger the most powerful sedan sold in America – and I believe that it will – but not with a manual transmission.

The General Motors recall bug has now turned its attention to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, with 712 units fitted with the awesome Competition Seat option being recalled over a concern that the a side impact air bag might not work as expected – but with a collection of very odd and very vague variables.

The news that General Motors is recalling every single current generation Chevrolet Camaro hit yesterday as big news, but that is more because of the long list of ignition-based recalls in the past few months and the media frenzy surrounding those recalls and less because it poses a significant risk to owners – making this a much less critical recall for the owners than the one that pertains to the Chevrolet Cobalt.

Since the Dodge Viper was introduced in the early 90s, it has been powered by a V10 engine because the levels of power offered by that 10 cylinder mill weren’t available in a 50-state street legal V8, but with the introduction of the 600+ horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat – the new blown V8 could prove to be a proper V8 for the Mopar supercar.

Now that the configurator for the 2015 Ford Mustang has arrived online, we have full official details and pricing information for all of the various options, features and packages of the new Mustang – including the 50 Years Appearance Package that we have heard about since the first dealer screen captures hit the web.

The new Chevrolet Corvette C7.R race cars made their 24 Hours of LeMans debut this past weekend with the hopes of achieving the success of past generation Corvette race cars and while mechanical gremlins prevented the teams from taking the class win – both C7.R teams finished strong in the grueling 24 hour race.

Here’s the specs on the new 2015 Mercedes AMG GT 4.0-liter V8 Biturbo engine. And it’s impressive.

The 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart, the closest car to the legendary Lancer Evolution, is coming with new standard features.

While the Chrysler Group has announced a long list of information on the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, the company has continued to only offer “at least 600” as the power numbers and I think that this is due to an exciting game of chicken with Ford Motor Company and their new Shelby/SVT Mustang.

GM recently trademarked the word Zora - the first name of the man responsible for the early performance of the Chevrolet Corvette – and I’m lead to wonder if the company might be looking to pay homage to the late engineer with a new special edition package for the C7 Stingray.

With recent announcement that the Boxster will feature a smaller motor, could Porsche be planning to do the same with future vehicles, in an effort to be more fuel efficient?

General Motors announced this morning that they are recalling every single Chevrolet Camaro from the current generation, with these 2010-2014 models facing similar ignition risks as the millions of recalled compact cars that lead to a handful of accidents and roughly a dozen deaths – while also issuing a stop-sale order to dealerships on both new and used Camaros.

The sporty Subaru SVX could be revived by Subaru as a new flagship high-performance coupe with a performance hybrid powertrain.

While there still aren’t “official” weight figures for the 2015 Ford Mustang, the folks at Mustang6g have gotten a hold of information said to be from dealership information and while these numbers are a little higher than the figures for the 2014 models – the 2015 Mustang weighs significantly less than what the rumors suggested.

We can say goodbye to the 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, but say hello to the new-generation successor’s technology that will be at Pikes Peak.

Very little has changed for the 2015 model year of the Chevrolet Camaro so not surprisingly, very little has changed with the pricing of the 2015 Camaro – although there is one increase and one decrease across the trimlines while the vast majority of prices remain the same.

Ford Motor Company kind of shocked the world when they introduced the new 2015 Ford F150 pickup with a body that is comprised heavily of aluminum rather than steel and when (not if) the newest F150 succeeds – we will quickly see the competition follow suit as the other truck makers scramble to keep up with the bestselling truck in the world.

As the anticipation builds with the American performance car world eagerly awaiting the arrival of the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we have a great new video that shows this 600+ horsepower beast roaring down a public road somewhere in Metro Detroit – providing us with our first chance to hear the automatic transmission ease through the gears.

The $2.5 million dollar drag race you have to see to believe: Porsche 918 Spyder v. McLaren 650S Spider v. Koeningsegg Agera R.

The 2015 Ford Mustang will take the common first step to being a sports car superstar on June 15th as a new S550 leads the field at NASCAR’s Quicken Loans 400 at Michigan International Speedway – helping to both build anticipation for the new model will also serving as another part of the Mustang’s 50th birthday celebration.
