The first spy shots of the upcoming 2012 Audi S6 emerged in March, and surprisingly, it wasn't wearing anything in the way of camouflage. Perhaps with the new A6 already out and about, Audi thought it would slip under the radar--but it didn't, and it hasn't this time, either, as our spies captured the car in testing again, including shots of the carbon fiber-clad interior. The 2012 S6 is expected to get a punchier version of Audi's upcoming 4.0-liter V-8 engine, taking the place of the 435-horsepower V-10 engine in the current 2011 S6. Leaked specs for the car peg the new V-8's output at 434...

Four-door coupes aren't exactly the hot new thing these days, but for BMW fans, the niche is getting ready to get interesting: the BMW Gran Coupe is being built, and these spy shots show it's not far from being ready.

With more room and similar performance, it could be an enticing buy for those that desire a little more practicality but can't give up the coupe-like look. Based very closely on the concept car of the same name, the 6-Series Gran Coupe is...

Going a long way towards confirming previous reports that a third-pedal option would be offered on the 2012 BMW M5, at least in the U.S., this latest image reveals that BMW is testing prototypes on local soil fitted with a conventional manual transmission. The prototype was spotted in Los Angeles, California and was also seen wearing a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. You may recall that BMW offered the outgoing E60 M5 with a manual transmission, but only here in the U.S. It looks like the same will happen with the new 2012 BMW M5 as well.
