  • Volvo V30 spy shots

    You’ve seen the spy shots. Now here’s a spy video of Volvo’s new five-door C30, which was spotted recently in a car park in Europe. The new model is scheduled to make its official world debut at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show next March before going on sale shortly after as a 2013 model. It’s not clear what name Volvo’s long-overdue C30 five-door will be called, with most expecting it to be called a V30 in line with Volvo’s naming practice for its stretched wagon models. However, since this isn’t technically a wagon but more of a regular five-door...

  • 2012 Lexus LFA right-hand drive model

    It may have its detractors, but there’s no denying that the 2012 Lexus LFA is a force to be reckoned with. The sultry supercar marks both a turning point in Lexus' design and the beginning of a renewed focus for the luxury marque--one that’s almost entirely performance themed. Sitting atop Lexus' F performance vehicle portfolio, which includes IS F and F Sport models, the LFA is a tangible example of the template from which the Japanese automaker promises all its future models will be developed and evaluated. Key attributes of this new template are sensory traits such as driving...

  • Man washes interior of 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS

    We’re still trying to fathom why somebody would take to the interior of a fairly new car with a high-pressure washer, let alone a 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS, but here’s video proof that there's at least one person out that considers this normal. Forgetting about the untold damage that would almost certainly be afflicting the car’s electronic systems, the sheer fact that the owner of this car, a CLS350 CDI, is happy to drive around with soggy carpets and seats is beyond bizarre. In fact, we would say it even approaches on the insane. We just hope that this is some kind of joke...
