C63 AMG Gets the 660hp McChip Treatment

Looking like an art car reminiscent of the ones popularized by BMW, German tuner mcchip-dkr has managed to turn the already great C63 AMG into a car that packs both a visual and a performance wallop. Upon first sight of this tuner car, what grabs your eye are the decidedly eye-catching graphics, courtesy of CoverEFX.

A Closer Look: The 2013 Scion iQ

Let’s not beat around the bush: the Scion iQ is weird. Don’t take that as a bad thing; it isn’t. Scion’s pudgy micro car is surprisingly comfortable, handles like a fwd go-kart and looks pretty good on some aftermarket 16 wheels. The reason it’s weird is in part because you’d have to consider buying 16″ rims [...]

Watch This Burly F100 do some HD Burnouts
