    2013 BMW 640i Gran Coupe: First Drive

    This is not a good time for the indecisive. Just when you thought that BMW couldn't fragment the performance-luxury choices any more—with the X6 and the 5-Series Gran Turismo already appealing to the niche shoppers who are torn between pre-defined vehicle types like coupes, sedans, wagons...

    2013 Subaru BRZ First Drive

  • Aston Martin's AM 310 concept

    Remember that Aston Martin DB9 / DBS successor we’ve been telling you about for the past two years or so? The one that’s been repeatedly spotted in camouflage, until we brought you some clearer spy shots last week? Aston Martin picked last weekend’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d'Este to debut what appears to be a version of the car, dubbed the AM 310 and likely a successor to the current Aston Martin DBS. Details are extremely sparse, but we know that the car will carry a 6.0-liter V-12, good for an estimated 573 horsepower (63 more than the current DBS). Autoblog.nl...

    Climbing into the XTS for a drive, it was hard to not think of all that Cadillac officials had cautioned us the technology-focused 2013 Cadillac XTS isn’t. It isn't a new flagship model for the brand; it isn’t intended as a performance-oriented model; and it isn’t expected to be...

    Mazda and Alfa Romeo parent company Fiat have announced the signing of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the development and manufacturing of a new convertible sports car for the Alfa Romeo brand based on Mazda’s next-gen MX-5.
