Return of the Ford GT: 600+ hp Blows Up the Detroit Auto Show Long-Rumored Supercar Goes On Sale Late Next Year Ford's 2015 Detroit Auto Show press conference began with CEO Mark Fields saying he had a feeling there would be more questions about autonomous vehicle technology and fuel economy than horsepower. Wrong. The long-rumored Ford GT was finally brought onto the stage, looking damn sexy in a vivid royal blue, proving that it is indeed very real. With that, here's what we know: The supercar will be powered by what Ford claims to be the most powerful EcoBoost production engine ever: a next-gen twin-turbo EcoBoost V-6 that makes more than 600 horsepower. However much SAE-rated horsepower that turns out to be, it will drive the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual clutch automatic that Ford says will deliver "near-instantaneous" gear changes. Also helping the new mid-engine Ford GT achieve its supercar status is lightweight carbon fiber construction. HOW GORGEOUS IS THAT THING? FIND OUT MORE HERE.

The Big Test: Minivans - Chrysler, Honda, Kia, Nissan, and Toyota Best-Sellers Duke It Out. The Winner Might Surprise You! Growing up, I had a lot of fun in our family's minivans. Our family's first car was a 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan SE that my dad used to shuttle me to early-morning hockey practice. (My little brothers would hide half-eaten bagels in the seats.) Sometime between the time our family's second minivan caught fire in 2002 (long story) and the end of the decade, the popularity of the minivan plummeted. The market went from more than 11 models at its peak to just eight or so, depending on who's counting. The meat of the market is covered by the five Big Test competitors you see here: the 2014 Chrysler Town & Country S, 2015 Honda Odyssey Touring Elite, 2015 Kia Sedona SXL, 2014 Nissan Quest LE, and the 2015 Toyota Sienna SE.
