Alfa Romeo, eight-cylinders—that’s a rather evocative cluster of letters. If you’re any sort of Alfisti like us, the very mention of an eight-cylinder Alfa has you slack-jawed and glaze-eyed with thoughts of Alfa’s pre-war straight-eight monsters that claimed world championships and terrorized Italian farmroads, and then onto dreams of Alfa’s high-revving racing V-8s from the 1950s and 1960s that begat the outrageously stylish Tipo 33 Stradale and the later Montreal. Eventually, you’ll settle on the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione from the late 2000s, shredding tires and breaking hearts with its Ferrari/Maserati V-8. This 1974 Alfa Romeo Alfasud is none of those. The tinny and rust-prone Alfasud was likely the last Alfa to enter your mind during that dayd...
The eighth-generation Chevrolet Corvette. It’s a mid-engined masterpiece that is so far pretty great in both base and Z51 flavors. And it will have even more variants in the future. That much is almost certain. What exactly these variants are, however, remains an open question until Chevy makes it official. That said, intel that we’ve gathered suggests a Z06 is on the horizon. While the C8 Z06 is an extremely exciting proposition, it’s the so-called “E-Ray” that truly has our attention. See all 34 photos What Is the Chevy Corvette E-Ray’s Name All About? To be very clear, nothing’s official until Chevy tells us so. And at this early date, we have only rumors and a few scant firm details to work with. Still, this combination gives us a reasonable id...
Though Hardwell once said, “Never Say Goodbye,” the fact of the matter is that all chapters must come to an end at some point. After 10 years and 500 episodes, Hardwell has officially ended his long-running radio show, “Hardwell on Air.” Since the Revealed Recordings label head has been on a touring hiatus since 2018, fans have flocked to the weekly series as a way to stay in the loop with the beloved electronic music artist. While the end of the radio show may come as a blow, fans will be happy to know that a new outlet is being launched in its stead. During the final episode, Hardwell announced that Revealed Recordings has launched a new 24/7 Youtube live radio channel. Now, “Hardwell on Air” fans have access to a nonsto...
“R.i.P To the legend Larry King God bless him,” 50 Cent captioned a photo of himself alongside King on Twitter. Bocelli remembered the broadcasting giant as a “king of the talk show and legendary face of @CNN” on Twitter. The opera singer added, “A remarkable individual, a great journalist and a good man who loved life deeply.” Bennett also took to Twitter to remember King. “Whenever you sat down in Larry King’s TV living room you felt like you were just having a conversation with a friend and forgot that millions around the world were watching,” the iconic crooner wrote. Dion, meanwhile, shared a touching tweet, calling King a “kind gentleman” who “made all of us feel as though we were speaking with a lifelong fr...
Later on in her live session, she added, “It’s been 48 hours of the world knowing. It’s been the best 48 hours.” Siwa took a moment to give a thoughtful answer to a follower’s question of “What label are you?” “The reason why I’m not ready to say this answer is because I don’t really know this answer,” she candidly said. “I think humans are awesome. I think humans are really incredible people. Right now, I’m super duper happy and I, you know, want to share everything with the world, I really do, but I also want to keep things in my life private until they are ready to be public.” “Right now what matters is that you guys know that no matter who you love, that it’s OK. It’s awesome, and the ...

It’s a classic tale, really. Man sees lottery giving away a Chevy Corvette and some cash. Man purchases scratch-off lottery ticket hoping to win said Chevy Corvette and some cash. Man wins the lottery—but the lottery can’t source a Corvette for the winner, and now lawyers are involved and you’re reading about the whole kerfuffle here. So maybe that isn’t a tale as old as time, but it sure is kind of amusing. Really, how could the Georgia lottery not have lined up a Corvette for the ultimate winner of its Corvette giveaway ahead of time? It’s like the U.S. Treasury sending you an I.O.U. for your tax return because it forgot to print checks. Expectant new Corvette owner Dennis Kahler won the lottery fair and square, and according to the Corvette Forum where this...
Way back in 2015, Congress passed the Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Act (LVMVMA). It required the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) to come up with guidelines to allow certain small vehicle manufacturers (those that sell less than 5,000 vehicles globally per year) a path toward producing turn-key replicas, instead of kit cars, in a limited number and with a variety of restrictions. And then … nothing happened. Until now. The NHTSA has finally gotten its act together after prodding (and lawsuits) from SEMA and others, and we finally have a look at the LVMVMA’s final rules (PDF document). Here’s the gist: these companies can build up to 325 replica cars annually for sale in the U.S., and they don’t have to be kit cars. More imp...
It’s estimated that King, a 25-year veteran of CNN, conducted an estimated 50,000 on-air interviews during career. He was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1989. Watch 10 of King’s most memorable sit-downs with musicians below. Frank Sinatra (1988) Sinatra gave a rare interview to King in 1988, marking the iconic singer’s last major TV appearance before his death 10 years later. During the chat, Sinatra revealed that he never got over his stage fright (“I tremble every time…”) and called writers of kiss-and-tell books “pimps and whores.” Barbra Streisand (1995) Streisand appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live several times dating back to the early 1990s. In this mid-’90s appearance, the legendary singer and actress discussed her f...
On Jan. 23, 2014, Bieber was arrested in Florida for drag racing on a Miami Beach street in a yellow Lamborghini and failing a sobriety test. He was later charged with driving under the influence, resisting arrest and driving with a suspended license. “All this to say God has brought me a long way,” Bieber continued in his post. “From then til now I do realize something.. God was as close to me then as he is right now. My encouragement to you is to ‘let your past be a reminder of how far god has brought you. Don’t allow shame to ruin your “today” let the forgiveness of Jesus take over and watch your life blossom into all that God has designed you to be.” Following the arrest, Bieber was able to avoid jail time by pleading guilty to a lesser charge of reckless drivin...
