The second-generation of BMW’s X5 M and X6 M performance SUVs is just around corner, with a debut likely to take place at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show next month. Right on cue, a teaser video for the new vehicles was released today.

Lotus’ striking Exige S gets an automatic transmission starting from January. Unfortunately the car is still not on sale in the U.S., though that may eventually change with new CEO Jean-Marc Gales running the show.

Kia’s K900 flagship sedan is getting some serious performance mods for next month’s SEMA show in Las Vegas. Today we were given our first look at the project car.
