    Maserati 2+2 GT prototype tries the old "fake rear doors" trick
    1098729137

    But The Car Connection isn't partcularly hoodwinkable. This GT is disguised to look like a regular Quattroporte sedan, on which it is largely based. The borrowed Q-porte items:  the Ferrari-designed V8 engine, Cambiocorsa paddleshift transmission, front suspension and rear axle. The new ...

    Porsche contemplating hybrid Cayenne
    1098724816

    The vegetable will be a half habanero, half thai chili blend that will provide a semi-faux Capsicum flavor… oh wait, wrong blog. I meant to write that Porsche may market a gas-electric hybrid version of its Cayenne SUV that makes use of Toyota's RX400h guts. Porsche doesn't do ...

    1098720998

    VW's head goatee Bernd Pischetsrieder recently told the Italian newspaper Il Sole that his company "will lose nearly 1 billion euros in the United States this year due to the weak dollar and the (product) lineup which is waiting to be renewed." VW is forced to sell their vehicles at a ...

    Ford Mustang enjoyed by C/D data-freaks
    1098718191

    It's always refreshing to read one of those rare Car and Driver reviews that's devoid of hard test data, and this Mustang article is no exception. It's pleasurable to not be pummeled by numbers and read about the actual driving experience. C/D romped with the V6 and V8 Stangs on backroads, ...

    Mercedes CLS500: why not just call it a roadster?
    1098715237

    Since that makes about as much sense as calling it a coupe. Despite AutoWeek's refusal to question Mercedes' ridiculous naming practices, this thorough going-over of the CLS is pretty engaging— I did not know that the CLS sports constantly adapting seat bolsters to provide just the ...

    This is the fireplace where I burn my money
    1098713188

    Let's say you just bought a Maybach 57. Granted, it's the short one, and TRU BALLER$ only roll in 62s, so you need to do something to distinguish yourself. Do you call X to the Z? No— you ring up US coachbuilder Genaddi Design Group, which for just over $150K can turn your 57 sedan ...

    Lotus GT coupe prototype seen driving through a bog
    1098466960

    Cranberries, beware. This Elise-based GT will sell for about £30,000 and lock horns with the new Boxster, while maintaining a so-called "higher spec" than the Elise and Exige. The GT is noticeably wider, most likely to make room for a V6 engine. Overall, the car will be more spacious, ...

    Jeep Grand Cherokee conquers 2 Penn Plaza
    1098459221

    Well, that Jeep made it. Supposedly some onlookers were disappointed when scantily clad ladies did not emerge from the vehicle after it reached the top—fortunately, New Yorkers can find underdressed females emerging from alleys citywide, at all times. In other news, Mary Jane has ...

    2004 Audi TT Roadster DSG6: two clutches, no third pedal
    1098454613

    Much of this unspirited back-and-forth between two AW editors concerns Audi's sequential manual gearshifting device, which employs a twin-clutch to wrangle the rpms and dole out perfect throttle blips. You can break off shifts in a more efficient manner than a true manual, and breeze through ...
