The Dodge Charger Sixpack Sounds Better Than We Thought

The gas-powered Dodge Charger Daytona can't come fast enough. The electric variant, launched last year, hasn't exactly been the success the brand hoped for.

The Toyota GR86 and Subaru BRZ have an annoying shadow. To some enthusiasts–read: The Internet–it’s underpowered, cheap-feeling, and not enough car to be considered a sports car.
