We’ve already reported on McLaren’s plans for a 675LT Spider and now we have the first spy shots of a test mule. An initial glance will lead one to think this is an ordinary 650S Spider but if you peer a little closer you’ll notice the makeshift dual-side vent design similar to the one used on the original 12C Spider. This is likely due to additional cooling required by the higher-rated...

  • 2017 Audi R8 Spyder spy shots - Image via S. Baldauf/SB-Medien

    These are our latest spy shots of the second-generation R8 Spyder from Audi. The coupe made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show back in March and we suspect the convertible will debut at the Swiss show in 2016. A debut at this month’s Frankfurt Auto Show is also a possibility. It was at the German show that the original R8 Spyder was first shown back in 2009. From the spy shots we can see that the new R8 Spyder sticks with a conventional folding soft-top roof. The design is much the same as on the outgoing model, with a flat deck spanning the engine bay and a vertical rear window...
