Porsche’s Cayenne gets some updates for the 2017 model year. Among those updates is the availability of Platinum Edition models. These get a host of extras for not much money.

A prototype for the next-generation Mini Countryman has been spotted. However, this one’s for the high-performance John Cooper Works model.

The Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe is a legend. But with just six examples ever built there’s little chance of driving one. Thankfully there are companies like Superformance that,  under license, make replicas that look and feel just like the originals.

You'll find all of these stories and more in today's car news, right here at Motor Authority.
