Spy Shots

Hello, Gorgeous! A fully uncloaked Aston Martin Rapide was just caught on the road in the UK by a CAR Online reader months prior to its official unveiling at the Frankfurt motor show in September. The svelte four door genuinely translates Aston Martin’s design language into super sedan shape. Apparently the interior is no less [...]

 
We were cruising YouTube this weekend, as we do, when we came across this little gem of a clip. It looks like someone got some spy video of a Scion TC with what sounds like a Nascar V8 and rear wheel drive. Given the Rockstar Energy drink livery, we’re guessing this really is the new car [...]

While it may look like a Ferrari F430’s snout grafted onto a Lamborghini Gallardo from the A-pillar back, this is in fact the upcoming McLaren P11. You are to think of it as McLaren F1 light. Instead of a 600+ hp V12 sourced from BMW the P11 will sport a 550-ish horsepower 6.2-liter V8 sourced from [...]

Man… The OG 2.7-liter twin-turbo Audi Allroad is on my auto bucket list (cars I want to own before I die). What a great idea. All the utility offered by 90% of the SUVS onsale, with actual sportiness in sensible package. Naturally it flopped here in the USA. Instead, we get the Q7. Well, those [...]

Hmmm. These pictures came our way via a dear internet friend named Rory. He spotted (and chased) the Taurus in Chicago and says the following, “[the pics] shows a lightly camouflaged Ford Taurus.  Being that this photo was taken last week, after the car’s debut at the NAIAS, if it is some kind of SHO  or [...]

Our Aussie pals at Motor Authority just captured a bunch of shots of the upcoming Mini Crossover in cold weather testing (above is a crazy CAR photoshop). This “Crossman” or “Maxi” (or whatever Mini eventually decides to call it) will be the 4th Mini variant, following the convertible and the Cllubman. Here’s my issue — [...]

According to the kids on GermanCarZone, these are the first official images of the McLaren Mercedes-Benz SLR Stirling Moss. The pics come courtesy of some sort of print article, but the post doesn’t say which. Though, quoting a bit from the text, the post does say this low ‘n lovely ride is powered by a [...]

In Australia. Er, Germany. Here’s the deal. Yet another Ferrari mule with poorly fitting 599 Fiorano GTB panels, a shrunken wheelbase, funky exhausts and atrocious paint has been spotted running around what we’ll just go and assume is the Nurburgring. This has the boys at Motor Authority thinking we’re looking at a Dino. Here’s their thinking: the [...]

Few things are sexier than a high-dollar supercar frolicking in the snow. There’s just something slightly out of place about sheet metal worth more than my house mixing it up with the elements. The scene is especially delicious when the car just so happens to be a prototype. MotorAuthority has nabbed a handful of images [...]

Hidden only by a thin veil of low-res pixelation, these are the first official images of the new 2010 Mercedes E-Class sedan. The grainy images have been leaked far in advance of the car’s planned unveiling at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. Though official specs remain a mystery still, what we can say for sure [...]
