  • 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S

    The 2016 Mercedes-AMG GT finally made its debut this week, and from just its looks alone the car was certainly worth the wait.

The 2016 Audi TT isn’t due in local showrooms until next year but we’ve just driven the car in its European specification and found it to be a hoot to drive—in both TT and TTS trim. Even better still is that the high-performance TT RS will make a return, though its arrival is still...
