What It Is: A 2014 Bentley Continental Flying Spur—the four-door sibling
of the Continental GT coupe and GTC convertible—caught while testing wearing
fake Mercedes S-class camouflage. A lot of spy photos come through our email
inboxes, but few prove as entertaining as these shots of the next Flying Spur.
Not only did Bentley stick on some pseudo-Benz head- and taillights, but it went
so far as to affix bulging fender flares similar to those...
Lincoln’s redesigned 2013 MKZ sedan goes on sale later this fall, and today
the company released some pricing details for its newest four-door. The MKZ will
start at $36,800; that base price gets you a front-wheel-drive version powered
by a 240-hp, turbocharged 2.0-liter four. The MKZ is available in four trim
levels—Premiere, Select, Reserve, and Preferred—and each trim can be had with
the base turbo four, an available 300-hp V-6, or a...
You know it is only a matter of time before the presentation of a new model when
a carmaker drops pictures of a barely camouflaged prototype as MINI did on
Tuesday with the Paceman.
The new images show the three-door crossover model with only parts of the
rear end covered in the traditional swirly livery we have come to expect from
Mini's engineers over the past few years.
Not that we're surprised, mind you, as back in April, Kay...
One of the toughest parts of my job, and yes, there are several, is
trying to express to readers the value of a car is not necessarily found in the
boxes of a spec chart. While the numbers are important, it's often the
qualitative mortar in between the quantitative bricks that tell the story. When
talking to friends about our long-term Volkswagen Passat, one of the first
things that gets brought up is the 0-60 mph time, which happens to...
The 2013 Camaro 1LE that bridges the gap between the SS and ZL1 coupes wasn't
the only new model to receive a price tag, as according to Autoblog.com, General
Motors also announced pricing for the 2013 Camaro ZL1 Convertible during an
event in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on Sunday.
The rag-top version of the ZL1 will start at $60,445 (€49,100), which
includes a $900 destination charge (*). That's a $5,450 premium over the
current,...
Audi has revealed the refreshed 2013 R8 and the changes, though minor, nicely
update what is one of our favorite sports cars. It may not be readily apparent,
but the R8 recently celebrated its fifth birthday—its aggressive-yet-spare
styling has aged well. To that end, Audi didn’t mess much with the mid-engine,
all-wheel-drive R8’s basic cosmetic goodness. The company also didn’t do much
with the mechanicals, including the wonderful V-8...
