  • 2018 Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo, 2017 Geneva auto show

    Don't call it a wagon—or, maybe you should. Porsche has taken the wraps off of the first true body style evolution of its Panamera flagship, a five-door wagon-like hatchback that the German automaker says improves the model's load-carrying ability without diminishing its performance. The car made its public debut at the Geneva auto show. It's called the 2018 Panamera Sport Turismo and it will be available in Panamera 4, Panamera 4S, Panamera 4 E-Hybrid, and Panamera Turbo configurations in the United States. Despite its unique rear end, the Sport Turismo shares the same 116.1-inch...

    Rolls-Royce destroyed 1,000 diamonds to paint this Ghost

    Look, we like a fancy car as much as the next enthusiast, but Rolls-Royce might have finally taken things too far. This is an extended-wheelbase Ghost that the company has painted using the dust of 1,000 crushed, “ethically sourced” diamonds. Gents, think about that the next time your...

    If you're going to build a ridiculously powerful station wagon, why not go all out?

  • Mercedes-AMG GT concept, 2017 Geneva auto show

    Mercedes-AMG has signalled its intention to jump into the high-performance sedan market with the unveiling of the stunning GT sedan concept on Tuesday at the 2017 Geneva auto show. Although AMG already offers tuned versions of Mercedes-Benz sedans, the GT concept heralds a standalone four-door model from the Affalterbach tuner in the same vein as its existing GT sports car and previous SLS AMG supercar. “With the Mercedes-AMG GT concept, we are giving a preview of our third completely independently developed sports car and are extending the attractive AMG GT family to include a...

  • 2017 Land Rover Discovery

    Halfway up a wall of rock that our shiny orange 2017 Land Rover Discovery was expected to climb—using what's basically off-road cruise control, no less—rested a decked-out long-wheelbase Defender 110. Even without its meaty off-road rubber and a winch, this Defender, a member of Land Rover's corporate fleet, was a drool-worthy reminder of this brand's unparalleled four-by-four heritage. In the southern Utah desert landscape, the chunky utility vehicle that has only incrementally changed since the 1940s looked at home. When I remarked to the Land Rover-provided guide, dressed in...

Of course, that's not really true because the Bentayga is, in reality, a magnificent example of massive rolling...

    Aston Martin One-77 comes up for sale, and it isn't cheap

    Between 2009 and 2012, Aston Martin produced the One-77, a very low volume super machine that cost well north of $1 million. An amazing blend of carbon fiber, aluminum, and massive power, just 77 examples were produced, and all were snatched up quickly--as expected. Now one of those 77 cars is for...
