tBlog - Road Test: Ferrari 612 Scaglietti

Measuring 193 inches long by 77 inches wide, it shades slightly more pavement than does a Lexus LX 470 sport/utility. Even in this day when everything seems to come jumbo, supersize, or el grande, our first glance at this flagship caused us to ask: "Est tu, Ferrari?" Still, we tried to open our minds as the director of product strategy, Giuseppe Bonollo, laid out the case for his big new baby, the 612 Scaglietti (say it like an Italophone: say-CHEN-to do-DI-chi skahl-YET-ee). It seems the design brief was to build a car capable of blistering Ferrari-grade performance in a package that could comfortably carry four actual adult humans--a feat no four-seatbelt Ferrari in history has managed.

tBlog - New Car: Jaguar XJ220

The Jaguar XJ220 was a supercar produced by Jaguar in collaboration with Tom Walkinshaw Racing between 1992 and 1994. It held the record for the highest top speed of a production car (217 mph) until the arrival of the McLaren F1 in 1994. The XJ220 is now remembered today as one of the most notorious automotive flops of all time.
