It’s safe to say that we already know pretty much what the new 2012 BMW 6-Series Coupe will look like, what powertrains it will come with, and how much it will cost. However, we can’t be 100 percent sure until the car actually makes its official world debut. We can now report that the debut will most likely happen at the 2011 Shanghai...
One of the key men behind the design of the new XJ and stunning XK at Jaguar will soon be designing Rolls-Royces for a living. Giles Taylor, a former Jaguar designer, has now been hired by Rolls-Royce as its chief of exterior design. Taylor has an industrial design background, with his talents honed mostly in the UK though he’s notched up...
Jaguar's new XF and XJ sedans have made waves in sport-luxury seas, bringing a newer, fresher face to what was once a bit of a stodgy lineup. Now it looks like Jaguar may be planning even more boat-rocking, with several new models in the pipeline including a sports car, a BMW 3-Series rival and an estate wagon. However, the list of new model...
The Mercedes GP team may not have fared as well as it had hoped to last year, especially considering that the team had two Formula 1 greats--Team Principal Ross Brawn and racing legend Michael Schumacher--on board. However, with the unveiling this week of the ‘W02’ Mercedes GP race car, there’s a new sense of hope for the team in...
The 2011 Geneva Motor Show is just around the corner and speculation of some of the show’s surprise unveilings are starting to seriously heat up. The latest is rumor of a new sports car concept from Alfa Romeo dubbed the 4C GTA Coupe. While news of the 4C’s existence is nothing new, we’ve already reported on it being at Geneva...
The current E90 BMW 3-Series has been on the market since 2005, so it's only fitting that details about the next-gen model are beginning to circulate. Most agree that the next model will feature styling lifted, at least in part, from the Concept CS, though also expect to see a healthy dose of the new corporate styling debuted on the latest...
Freakishly shaped, crowd-designed, and "open source," the Local Motors Rally Fighter is unique even among the world of purpose-built dirt bashers. It's also a ton of fun to watch as it does its thing. You've already seen the Rally Fighter get freaky in the dirt, but it's up to its antics again, this time as a preview to its foray in the 40th...
You thought the Cadillac CTS-V was bad-ass? You're right, but the CTS-V Black Diamond is bad-asser. Or, as Cadillac puts it, it's a "finely crafted, tailored tuxedo." We like our description better. No, you don't get any performance enhancements in the Black Diamond, but then, you don't really need any. The 556-horsepower supercharged LSA V-8...
Those of you in the many snowbound cities across the north and midwest this morning know just how inconvenient the wintry precipitation can be. But at least it didn't set your car on fire. One unlucky van driver in Chicago can't say the same. Stuck in the snow in an intersection, the driver enlisted the help of some passersby to push the van to...
Electric-assisted drivetrains are here to stay, and they've even made some inroads into legitimate supercar territory with the Porsche 918 Spyder, and in mechanical-hybrid terms with the Porsche 911 GT3 R Hybrid. But could a hybrid power the next Ford GT? That's the story slinking around the Web today, as Auto Express says it has inside word that...
As we trace the slow but steady progress of the 2012 McLaren MP4-12C to market, today brings a milestone: the start of regular production in the company's Technology Centre (MTC). Full series production will take place at the not-yet-completed McLaren Production Center (MPC), but the first batch of cars will be built under the tight controls and...
