The 2016 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship’s season-opener, the Rolex 24 at Daytona, is now over. It brought plenty of action along with plenty of mishaps for teams.

BMW is working on a direct rival for the likes of the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA. The car is expected to debut later this year and we’ve just spotted one of the more advanced prototypes.

If you were hoping to secure the very first example of the second-generation Acura NSX, you’re out of luck as the rights to the car, which is yet to be built, has just been sold at auction.

You'll find all of these stories and more in today's car news, right here at Motor Authority.
