Running a supercar as a daily is something reserved predominantly for the very wealthiest people, because it’s widely known just how expensive running one can be.

Cars of John Wick: The Boogeyman and American muscle© Provided by Hagerty Media John Wick is a rarity in the modern movie landscape. Though it is a successful Hollywood franchise, there was no prior source media for the 2014 film that kicked off this action-film craze. The tale follows Keanu Reeves’ titular character, a legendary retired hitman who, while mourning the loss of his wife to cancer, suffers considerable indignity: The ignorant son of a Russian gangster kills his Beagle puppy, a gift from his late love. Adding insult to injury, the perpetrator also steals his car. This premise isn’t the point,…
With the price of Muscle cars ever-rising. Here are 10 that won’t break the bank, or themselves.

The Prohibition era planted the seed for the muscle car, with bootleggers and hot rodders inspiring the high-powered vehicles we know today. The Prohibition era in the United States from 1920 to 1933 was a tumultuous time that not only banned alcohol but paved the way for what would eventually become the muscle car.

These cars eventually evolved into the muscle cars we know and love today. Prohibition played a crucial role in inspiring the creation of muscle cars.…
With a new supercharged V8 and sleek new styling, HotCars artist Rostislav Prokop’s Ford Capri concept enters the modern muscle car scene with a bang. When talking about European muscle cars, the default is often a Mercedes-Benz AMG or maybe even an Aston Martin. Certainly, these cars easily meet the criteria to be considered muscle cars: they have big V8s (or even larger), rear-wheel-drive, a fairly lightweight two-door body, and the ability to flex between street driving and drag racing. Although lacking a V8 engine (the South African Perana model had a 5.0-liter Windsor V8), some consider the original Ford Capri to be…
Top Gun: Maverick grossed over $1.4 billion on a budget of $170 million and secured its place as one of the biggest hits of 2022.

Despite organising a Top Gun style fly-past by two U.S. Navy fighter jets, which roared over the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood at the start of the night, the Academy could not tempt Tom Cruise to their main event. The planes came from the Flying Eagles squadron at a nearby military airbase, and a spokesman for the Academy later said: ‘A huge thank you to the U.S. navy for helping execute a once-in-a-lifetime Oscars opening.’ It likely cost them nothing, but was a massive favour nonetheless — not to mention the biggest plug imaginable for Top Gun: Maverick. And yet, as the dust settles for another…
Tom Cruise has received zero nominations at the 2023 Golden Globes Awards, which is being speculated as due to the actor formally returning his previous awards to Hollywood Foreign Press Association in 2021.
