On Monday we talked about the 2014 Corvette Stingray and its place in Corvette history. We also checked out a used Porsche race car on Bring a Trailer and looked at which Formula One teams are not at risk of collapsing.

We awoke on Tuesday to see video of a helicopter crashing during filming of “Top Gear Korea.” We looked at the interior of the McLaren P1 and saw some shots of the Alfa Romeo 4C before its reveal at the Geneva motor show.

Wednesday had us busy with the Mercedes-Benz A45 and the Honda Fit EV, which is going on sale on the East Coast. We also found out that IndyCar driver Katherine Legge is seeking legal action against Jay Penske’s Dragon Racing.

Valentine’s Day brought good news for enthusiasts. The Ram 1500 will get a diesel; we saw shots of the new Holden Commodore, which previews the Chevy SS; and reviewed the 2014 Kia Sorento.

We wrapped up the week learning about the Acura RLX, a BMW recall and the Automotive Fine Art Society’s show at the Amelia Island Concours.

Come back next week for more car news. We’ll be off on Monday but we’ll have fresh content for you, even if we’re celebrating our favorite presidents — Taft, Van Buren and R.B. Hayes, obviously.
