Infiniti GT-R Rumors Spring Fresh
Theme of the day: the BMW 1-Series M Coupe and rumors that just won't die. This story fleshes out the second of those trends with some Infiniti-branded GT-R postulation. Call us pessimistic, but until we see an Infiniti badge on something Nissan GT-R-derived, we're not going to hold our breath...

As the subject of literally years of speculation and rumors, Jaguar's XE sports car is one of the most hotly anticipated arrivals of the next few years. It is expected to draw ideological, if not literal, inspiration from the classic E-Type, and will "blow the rest of the industry away" according to the latest report. Aiming at Porsche Boxster levels of performance, the upcoming 2014 Jaguar XE has already been spied in testing. The styling is certainly not what you'd call retro in any way, but the lines are still all Jaguar, just interpreted in a smaller package. That's just as we've...

2012 Bentley Continental V-8 Coming To 2012 Detroit Auto Show
We've known for a year that Audi and Bentley will soon be sharing a new turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8, and we've known as well that it will be coming to the Continental GT first unveiled for the 2011 model year as well. Today, we get confirmation that the V-8 version will make its official debut at...

Just a week ago, we brought you images and info on the first 2011 BMW 1-Series M Coupe crashed, then on Korean soil, and now we unfortunately have the second, this time in Poland. This one looks much less serious, however, with an apparent backwards off on yet another wet road sripping one tire off the rim and scuffing up the right rear quarter panel while gathering some mud and grass as well. It looks like the rather generous M Dynamic mode BMW fitted to the 1-Series M Coupe is letting drivers outstrip their ability in what is, ulimately, a rather powerful, short-wheelbase, rear-wheel drive...

2012 BMW M5 On Track: Video
You've already seen the 2012 BMW M5 on track, but this latest video features some great fly-bys, launches, and track footage--this time without the operatic score drowning out the squealing tires and throaty exhaust. That's reason enough for us to spend some quality time with the new Bimmer super...

Porsche may be getting ready to jump into the executive limo segment with a long-wheelbase version of the Porsche Panamera, due to hit the streets early next year, according to a report. Whether it's slated for worldwide sale or a China-only run is unknown. The possibility of a special long-wheelbase version for China makes good sense--BMW makes a long-wheelbase (LWB) 5-series, and we just spotted a 3-Series LWB in testing the other day. Audi makes an A4 LWB, Volvo sells the S80L and Mercedes-Benz sells its E-Class in stretched form, too. Porsche wanting to get in on the action is therefore...
