<br />
<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/scion/">Scion</a> made a huge investment in the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/sema/">2012 SEMA</a> show, and its spanking new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/scion/fr-s/">FR-S coupe</a>, by putting hundreds of cars in the hands of tuners. The result on the floor of the Las Vegas Convention Center is unmissable, as just about everywhere we turn we find another FR-S peeking out at us.<br />
<br />
We tried to capture a large quantity of the coupes we saw on display, to represent just how thick on the ground they actually are. In the attached gallery you'll find a healthy percentage of the alleged 150-plus cars that made it to SEMA this year. You'll also find a smattering of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/subaru/brz/">Subaru BRZ</a> models, too. Fair is fair.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/01/pics-aplenty-scion-fr-s-and-subaru-brz-show-up-en-masse-at-sema/">Pics Aplenty: Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ show up en masse at SEMA</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Thu, 01 Nov 2012 20:31:00 EST.

<br />
If the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/john+cooper+works+countryman/">2013 Mini John Cooper Works Countryman</a> gets you all hot and bothered, you're in luck. <a href="http://autoblog.com/mini">Mini</a> has just released <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2013-mini-john-cooper-works-countryman-0/">191 high-resolution images</a> of its largest JCW offering, sporting its signature black paint job complete with contrasting red stripes, mirrors and roof. We're sure it'll be a total hoot to drive.<br />
<br />
And why wouldn't it be? After all, this hotted-up <a href="http://autoblog.com/mini/countryman">Countryman</a> is powered by a boosted version of Mini's 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-four good for 218 horsepower and a 207 pound-feet of torque, even capable of pumping out 221 lb-ft during momentary stints of overboost. That grunt runs to all four wheels (Mini's All4 all-wheel-drive system is in action here) via either a standard six-speed manual or optional six-speed automatic transmission. Sprinting to 62 miles per hour will take just seven seconds.<br />
<br />
There are plenty of upgrades on tap that make this Countryman fitting of the JCW badge, including a sport suspension with MacPherson struts up front and a model-specific central-arm rear axle, upgraded brakes, strengthened anti-roll bars, a 10-millimeter drop in ride height and lightweight 18-inch alloy wheels (19s are optional).<br />
<br />
A unique aero kit has been added to ensure that the JCW Countryman looks the part, and inside, the same red-and-black motif has been carried over. Customers will be able to spec optional lounge leather sport seats, and just like the standard Countryman, both the two- and three-passenger rear seating arrangements (read: two chairs or a proper bench) will be offered.<br />
<br />

<br />
When we think of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/">BMW</a> M division, the 1978 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/m1/">M1</a> comes instantly to mind, followed by the E30 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/bmw/m3/">M3</a> and then the 2001-2002 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/m+coupe/">M Coupe</a>. But the company's in-house hot rod shop actually dates back to 1972, when it was formed as a subsidiary to manage the company's racing operations, dubbed <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/bmw+motorsport/">BMW Motorsport</a>.<br />
<br />
It was this month 40 years ago that what is known today as BMW M GmbH was launched. So to celebrate its anniversary, BMW has offloaded some 50 lustworthy images celebrating that performance history. See them all in our <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/40-years-of-bmw-m/">gallery</a>.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/05/16/pics-aplenty-bmw-celebrates-40-years-of-m/">Pics Aplenty: BMW celebrates 40 years of M</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Wed, 16 May 2012 19:29:00 EST.

We've got all the images right here in one monstrous <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2013-bmw-6-series-gran-coupe-4/">gallery</a>, which also includes some behind-the-scenes shots of the car during development.

<br />
As is generally the case, we once again find ourselves swooning over the European <a href="http://autoblog.com/honda/civic">Honda Civic</a> hatchback that made its world debut at the <a href="http://autoblog.com/category/frankfurt-motor-show">2011 Frankfurt Motor Show</a>. The new-for-2012 North American-spec Civic hasn't exactly <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/07/13/2012-honda-civic-ex-sedan-review-road-test/">resonated well with us</a> (or <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/10/31/honda-moving-up-mid-cycle-refresh-of-civic-amidst-criticism/">the rest of the media</a>), and while we haven't had the chance to drive the new Euro Civic, our thought is that it simply must be better than the milquetoast slab of economy car that we've been served here in the United States.<br />
<br />
We've always liked the Euro Civic's five-door shape, with its rear door handles integrated into the C-pillar. But as for the rest of the 2012 model's design elements, there's a bit of overall weirdness, especially around its rump. Nevertheless, it'll likely do well in Europe, where bold designs are more widely accepted (just look at anything by <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/peugeot">Peugeot</a> or <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/citroen">Citro&euml;n</a>).<br />
<br />
Powering the Civic are a range of three different engines - two fueled by gasoline, one by diesel. The top-end diesel powerplant is Honda's 2.2-liter engine with 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, and below that, the two gasoline engines measure in at 1.4 and 1.8 liters, putting out 99 hp and 140 hp, respectively.<br />

<br />
The <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/599gto">599 GTO</a> being the fastest road-going <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/ferrari">Ferrari</a> ever to roll out of Maranello, you don't stand much chance of seeing one sitting still. Of course, the limited run of 599 examples doesn't help. But as if an excuse were needed, that does give us a reason to bring you the latest batch of high-resolution images showing the Prancing Goat in all its glory.<br />
<br />
You can check 'em all out in the gallery below. That is, assuming you haven't seen enough from the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/05/08/autocar-drives-the-ferrari-599-gto-calls-it-best-value-video/">seemingly</a> <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/29/video-ferrari-599-gto-reviewed-in-all-its-glory-by-evos/">endless</a> <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/05/06/video-dario-benuzzi-laps-mugello-in-the-new-ferrari-599-gto/">stream</a> of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/07/06/video-this-time-evos-chris-harris-takes-ferrari-599-gt/">videos</a> that have circulated since the supercar's debut.

<br />
The <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/r-class">Mercedes-Benz R-Class</a> people-mover gets a fresh new exterior for the 2011 model year. Not only does it incorporate the automaker's new corporate face, with the dinner-plate-sized logo in the middle of the grille, but the rear end has been smoothed out and the whole package looks a lot sleeker (as sleek as an R-Class can be, anyway). In all, we like the refreshed appearance, as it really tones down the bulgy proportions of the big R, and if you're shelling out top dollar for a family hauler, you'll certainly want to look your best while cruising to Costco.<br />
<br />
Not much has changed underhood - Mercedes-Benz is still offering the naturally-aspirated 3.5-liter V6 as well as the well-received 3.5-liter Bluetec turbodiesel. The interior gets a mild freshening, as well, and we must say, it looks like a wonderful place for long-distance cruises. Click through the gallery below to see over 100 high-res images of the 2011 R-Class.<br />

<br />
The not-for-U.S. (at least not for now) Audi A1 just made its <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/02/audi-a1-geneva-motor-show-live/">public debut</a> at this year's <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/geneva-motor-show/">Geneva Motor Show</a>, and we're eager to see how the new hatch stacks up to the likes of the much-loved <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/mini/cooper">Mini Cooper</a>. We're especially fond of this S Line model, which gives the A1 a much more aggressive appearance and tweaks the hatch's dynamics ever so slightly.<br />
<br />
The S Line kit is made up of two separate packages. The exterior package adds a larger roof spoiler, a revised front bumper with side air vents, more chiseled sill tops and a new rear bumper with an integrated diffuser. Beyond the host of exterior changes, the S Line sport package adds a leather-wrapped sport steering wheel, a sport suspension, and a choice of either 17- or 18-inch alloys. In all, the whole S Line treatment looks great and gives us more reason to lust after the A1. Click through our <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2011-audi-a1-s-line/">gallery</a> to see dozens of high-res shots of the A1 in its hot hatch-like S Line guise.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;"><br />
Hi everybody! You're looking at the $612,000 Maybach Zeppelin 62. We've already given out opinion as to why the new Zeppelin range of Maybachs <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/11/lead-zeppelin-maybach-exhumes-long-dormant-nameplate-for-new-su/">probably ain't worth the extra money</a>. So never mind the economics of the car -- at least for a few minutes. What we have here is a big old gallery worth of images of the new ultra-exclusive top of the line Maybach in its natural habitat. That's right, running around the French Riviera. We'll get to sneak a peak at the new Zeppelin's interior come <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/geneva-motor-show/">Geneva</a>. Maybe even sit inside it if we can catch a security guard dozing on the job.<br />
<br />
We've been hearing rumors of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/17/daimler-considers-shutting-down-maybach/">Maybach's demise</a> for quite some time, but as soon as some pundit yells game over, Daimler's uber-luxury brand goes and releases another model -- like the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/maybach-prices-62-landaulet-for-america-at-1-35-million/">kooky Landaulet</a>. And we don't mean kooky in a derogatory way. We mean it in a "We're kooky and we'd love to pull up to a roller derby game in a white-on-white Landaulet with half a dozen of our closest friends" kind of way. Failing that, we wouldn't mind rolling 'round town in a Zeppelin. Especially if we're not paying.</div>

<br />
It isn't every day that <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/aston-martin/">Aston Martin</a> comes out with a new car. And this isn't one of them, because the production version of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/09/15/frankfurt-2009-aston-martin-rapide-comes-good-finally/">the Rapide four-door saloon came out</a> over a month ago already. But considering that the British sportscar-maker got by - just fine, thank you very much - on what essentially boiled down to a two-car line-up for several years, we'll gladly run with it a little longer. Because there are few cars on the road that are as sumptuously crafted or lustily styled as an Aston. And this is their first sedan in decades. So take a deep breath, poor yourself a dry martini, click on the thumbnails below, and take a stroll through the mega gallery of high-resolution images that Aston has released purely for your viewing enjoyment. We particularly like <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/aston-martin-rapide-studio-shots/#57">this one</a>, which shows the high-dollar super saloon being used as an actual family car.<br />
