Rumormill: Aluminum and carbon fiber, KERS-equipped BMW M5 cometh?

What does the future have in store for BMW's high-performance M division? For starters, lots and lots of power, along with a smattering of light weight and plenty of cutting-edge technology. This all sounds familiar, but the rumored details coming out of Bimmerfile suggest that the 2011 BMW M5 would be nothing short of revolutionary. Not surprisingly, we're told to expect a version of the twin-turbo V8 that currently powers the M division's hi-po X5 and X6 tallboys with somewhere around 570 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque.

Visions of Grandeur: Refreshed Hyundai Azera on the horizon? Dan Roth

The Hyundai Azera is a perfectly nice car in a background-supporting-role kind of way. While the slow-selling model might seem to be something of a moot point now that the Genesis sedan is on U.S. ...

FAB Design makes the Ugliest. Panamera. Ever. 2 days ago on Autoblog

It took us a while, but we have finally realized what's going on: tuning companies are overstocked with Butt Ugly. They didn't ration their supply properly, now they've got unused cases of Butt Ugly lying around, stinking up the place. That's why we've been assaulted with all these steaming ...

Volkswagen Passat CC R-Line now on sale - in Europe 2 days ago on Autoblog

Volkswagen just opened the order book on the Passat CC with the R-Line package in Europe. We saw this car at the Frankfurt Motor Show and were completely smitten with it. Taking the regular CC's swoopy coupedan shape and adding the R-Line package makes it just about perfect. What stops it from ...

First Drive: 2010 Lexus LS460 Sport Package is F-ing with perfection 2 days ago on Autoblog

When Lexus introduced the IS F, enthusiasts were suitably skeptical about the automaker's attempt to go head-to-head with the Germans. After all, Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz have specialized in creating autobahn-burning, Nordschleife-honed handlers for decades. And then we drove it. To ...

REPORT: Honda plans to settle Civic Hybrid mileage suit out of court. Is it a fair deal? 2 days ago on Autoblog

If you buy a hybrid, you'll be rewarded with excellent fuel economy, right? Well, that's the idea, but sometimes things don't turn out exactly as we had hoped.

Zetsche: Maybach "not significant or relevant," but a facelift is coming anyway 3 days ago on Autoblog

Maybach's 2009 sales through the first eleven months of this year have declined about 20 percent. That's at the kinder end of the industry average, all the more impressive because the "cheapest" one starts at $358,000. The part that's not so kind is the actual number of sales: 88, versus 110 ...

Review: 2010 Nissan Maxima SV Sport is a lot of car for a lot of coin 4 days ago on Autoblog

VIDEO: Borat-class "Rolls-Royce" actually looks good 5 days ago on Autoblog

Right, so this isn't really a Rolls-Royce. We know, we know -- you thought it was. And that's understandable. But no, it's a fake, a phony, a fraud, etc. And with the owner spending at least, say, $3,000 to turn an old Mercedes-Benz E-Class into a Roller, we understand why you were duped. We ...

REPORT: Toyota running all North American plants on overtime to meet demand 7 days ago on Autoblog

For over a decade, Toyota had been frantically building up its North American infrastructure to build more and more cars and trucks. The plan was going smoothly until the new car market collapsed, leaving barren plants in its wake. But it appears as though Toyota is getting back on its feet. ...

Spy Shots: 2011 Dodge Charger prototype bagged in testing 8 days ago on Autoblog

Speculation regarding the 2011 Dodge Charger has run rampant ever since a particularly intriguing picture was shown during Chrysler's major day-long, five-year business plan slideshow that was broadcast online.

Porsche Panamera wins inaugural Bloomberg Car of the Year 8 days ago on Autoblog

Normally when a vehicle wins a car of the year award, its merit is so obvious that all you have to do to justify the selection is say, "just drive one."

Kia K9 super sedan sneak peeked in Seoul 9 days ago on Autoblog

When the Volkswagen Phaeton launched here in the States, nobody liked it. Well, that's not true.

Dartz creates car to commemorate Russian SUV whale penis debacle 9 days ago on Autoblog

Warning: if reading the word "penis" over and over again makes you uncomfortable, you might want to avert your eyes. First of all, the real story here is that Russian super-SUV maker Dartz never wanted to use whale penis skin to cover the seats in their ultra-lux Prombron. They wanted to use ...

REPORT: Chevrolet Malibu to join Volt in Detroit-Hamtramck plant 9 days ago on Autoblog

It's long been presumed that the Chevrolet Volt (and its Opel/Vauxhall Ampera twin) would not be the only car rolling out of General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant after late 2010. After all, Volt volumes are unlikely to be sufficient in the first several years to justify an entire ...

Chrysler UK says "Change is coming" on New Year's Day 9 days ago on Autoblog

There's a Chrysler UK site with the moody, Twilight-esque image you see above called "CHANGE is coming...." It heralds the date of January 1, 2010, and since it has a picture of the Chrysler 300 we'd like to think there will be something new announced for the six-year-old sedan. Perhaps that ...

Celebrated photographer David LaChapelle gets artsy with Maybach [UPDATE: Video added] 10 days ago on Autoblog

While its enduring legacy will forever be crippling hyperinflation and the inability to fight the rise of Nazism, Germany's post World War I Weimar Republic has something of a positive, cultural heritage. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, theater, art, architecture (Bauhaus anyone?) and music ...

Review: 2010 Suzuki Kizashi GTS is up for the Challenge 11 days ago on Autoblog

The 2010 Kizashi will change the way you look at Suzuki. To put it bluntly, the Kizashi is the strongest evidence yet that Suzuki's automotive division is no longer operating on autopilot in the States. And what's more, the brand is showing serious confidence. Consider the vehicles against which ...

REPORT: VW confirms Jetta name for small sedan, upcoming coupe concept could enter production 13 days ago on Autoblog

It seems that we'll be getting a new Jetta sedan next June, and it apparently won't be a slightly restyled Golf with a trunk grafted to the rear end. According to Car and Driver, VW's so-called New Compact Sedan, which will be built at the same Mexican plant that assembles the current Jetta, ...

LA 2009: Toyota debuts its plug-in Prius for North America 14 days ago on Autoblog
