So, my good friend Rodney Butterfield just fired over this article. It's a great read, but I can't help but wonder who these voters were. Yes, the Lotus 49 was a proper winner, but can it really ...
I've never been much of a Bugatti fanatic; sure, the Veyron was a technical marvel that smashed records, but it never made it into any of my dream car garages. It wasn't the sort of machine I'd have ...

About Trevor
I'm Trevor, and I've been obsessed with cars for as long as I can remember.
It started in elementary school when I found a book about the history of the Lamborghini Countach. That was it. From then on, I wanted to know everything, how the cars were built, why they mattered, what made them different, and the stories behind them.
That habit never really went away.
