From the August 1981 issue of Car and Driver. I knew that there was a new Scirocco coming to replace the coupe that has been delighting us since 1974.

The only manual V8 RWD sedan left in America is a compelling proposition all on its own; the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is a reminder of what AMG used to be, and after being refreshed for 2025 with new looks and a 33-inch touchscreen, it's on par with German automakers in the interior tech department.

One Walmart shopper is issuing a warning against buying meat at the massive retail chain—but the reason why isn’t strictly tied to Walmart.

Hot hatches are unfortunately a dying breed, and this year there are only a few examples of real hot hatches that are available in the U.S.A. which feature an all-wheel drive driveline and boast an engine that is capable of pumping out real horsepower. With automakers' obsession with powerful crossovers, SUVs, and more frugal engines, the fun and agile hot hatch and sports subcompact segment is being closed out.

Bentley models with 12-cylinder engines will soon be a thing of the past. The Continental GT has already switched to the new hybrid setup, and so will the Flying Spur. It's the last gasp for the W-12. But don't worry, one-percenters—you'll gain all kinds of horsepower in the transition.

Although the Honda Civic has made recent headlines with its new hybrid powertrain, the beloved Si trim is sticking around, joined by its own 2025 refresh. The Civic Si has never been short on fun, revered as a reliable, comfortable and affordable commuter angled more towards the performance-inclined. While not as “to the wall” as its Type R sibling, the Si is sporty enough for most enthusiast drivers thanks to its peppy engine and, best of all, six-speed manual transmission.
