Ultimate sleeper sedan: It's time to reintroduce yourself to the Alfa Romeo 164 ProCar
This never-ran racer was built around a carbon tub designed and constructed by the Brabham F1 team, with power coming from a V-10 that Alfa Romeo was developing for its own F1 program. Sadly, it never had a chance to race.

What's your favorite "car movie?"
We've put together a staff list of 11 films that left a lasting impact on us, from blockbuster animations like "Cars" to lesser-known classics like "Two-Lane Blacktop," but we want to hear from the rest of the Hagerty Community.
Tell us, which flicks did we miss in our list? 🤔

Bullitt contains perhaps THE most famous silver screen car chase sequences in history, but it's really not a "car movie."
Between the cars, the location, and the gritty authenticity, the smackdown between McQueen’s ’68 Mustang GT390 and the hitmen’s black Charger R/T 440 is a triumph that transcends the film it's a part of.

The latest Gunther Werks project has some links to motorsport history 👀
The limited-edition Gunther Werks Brundle Edition Turbo was developed jointly with former F1 driver Martin Brundle (who also won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1990) and his daughter Charlie Brundle, a designer who has worked for companies like McLaren and Aston Martin.

What's your favorite generation of the BMW M5?

Now that the dust has settled on the Tesla Roadster, where does it stand?
The extravagant launch event has left everyone with plenty of questions. Possibly even more than we started with.
All we can really surmise is that something that looked like a car flew, hovered, kick-flipped, however you want to label it. But that aerobatic PR stunt also overshadowed something pretty extraordinary; the "normal" Roadster.
No, it's not the car we saw in 2017, as the world that car would have been born into changed so drastically, that the very ethos of it had to be reconfigured. And that new configuration is something properly impressive, even without needing FAA clearance.
If you want to learn more about the car that will actually be on the road, @HenryCatchpole interviewed Tesla's VP of Vehicle Engineering, Lars Moravy, and got all the details on the latest edition of The Driver's Seat.

Monolithic slabs of pixels are everywhere in the car world, with "screen size" a major selling point in many market segments.
Alfa Romeo isn’t interested in joining this race. “Let’s get rid of the screens,” said Alfa Romeo design boss Alejandro Mesonero-Romanos.

Is this the ultimate overlanding rig?
The title would be fitting, because this is the Overland Expo's 2026 Ultimate Build. A Nissan Frontier PRO-4X fitted with all the aftermarket bells and whistles you could ask for on a trip into the middle of nowhere.
Assembled by Alldogs Offroad Coop as a one-off collaborative project with the Overland Expo, their Ultimate Build series showcases a new build each year with all the latest adventuring goodies, and then gets auctioned off to the public for charity.
On this edition of Short Shift, we spent a few days with this truck to get the full experience of living with (and living in) a rig like this, so let's see how it was.
Sometimes breaking your project car is the impetus to complete it.
That's basically what happened with our DIY Guy, Kyle Smith, and his recent track day tribulations in his modified C4 Corvette. Next up, suspension, steering, and brakes!

We drove the Porsche 550J, and found a bucket of fun in a tiny package.
Whas is the 500J? An official collaboration between Porsche and Britain’s Hedley Studios, which could potentially fit the bill as a neighborhood electric vehicle (NEV).

Castagna Milano's one-off roadster is a looker, and it's based on a sedan!
There's a Giulia Quadrifoglio at the heart of this creation, which is powered by a twin-turbocharged, 2.9-liter V-6. Castagna Milano promises the carbon-fiber body panels help lower weight to around 3130 pounds from about 3570 pounds.

Can a simluated manual be as good as the real thing?
Today we find out. On the latest edition of @JasonCammisa on the ICONS, the Ferrari 12Cilindri Manuale is the star of the show.
After years of pleading from enthusiasts, Maranello has finally given everyone what they want: a proper six-speed manual, three-pedal, naturally aspirated V-12 Ferrari. But there’s a catch.
That shifter and that clutch pedal are connected to nothing more than some wiring. Behind the driver sits the same eight-speed dual-clutch automatic found in the traditional 12Cilindri, and the driver’s new controls allow you to fully emulate the experience of a proper manual transmission, and switch over to a traditional automatic at the push of a button.
The question is, is this simply a rose-tinted cost saving gimmick? Or is it the best way to finally combine all the best qualities of both transmissions, with none of the downsides?
