VIDEO: Porsche Panamera S and 4S V8 400HP, and Turbo V8 500HP in Detail
.fullpost { display: inline; } The way we see it, the new Porsche Panamera is one of those cars you either love or hate, but under no circumstances are indifferent to. Porsche knows this very well so the Germans are trying to make the best of it in terms of publicity by constantly releasing something new on their first-ever production sports saloon. This time we have a 20-minute long video

.fullpost { display: inline; } While competing in the Ronde de Andorra rally in Italy, Polish Formula 1 star Robert Kubica was involved in a horrendous crash on Sunday, as he lost control of his Skoda Fabia S2000 rally car and left the road at high speed.

VIDEO: Best Footage Yet of the New Ferrari FF
.fullpost { display: inline; } With the recently unveiled all-wheel drive FF (as in Ferrari Four), Ferrari has opened a new chapter in its history. And to prove that they’re confident in the modern “breadvan’s” 4x4 capabilities, the Italians have released a series of photos with the FF being driven on snowy roads. Now, a new video has surfaced on Youtube showing the exotic GT as it’s put
Spy Video: Renault R-Space Concept for a Compact MPV Filmed Undisguised!
.fullpost { display: inline; } Evidently, the new Captur small crossover with the removable hardtop we told you about last week won't be the only concept model from Renault to hit the showroom floors of the Geneva Salon in less than two weeks time. A Youtube user managed to scoop a completely undisguised Renault study for a rather sporty looking compact MPV in Lisbon, Portugal. Judging by
VIDEO: Chrysler's "Born of Fire" Super Bowl Ad Starring the New 200, Eminem and the City of Detroit
.fullpost { display: inline; } Chrysler, unlike other automakers that were teasing and showing off their Super Bowl ads well before Sunday's event, held back giving viewers their first taste of the brand's two-minute long commercial in the third quarter of the game. The new TV spot, called “Born of Fire," showcases the all-new 2011 Chrysler 200 and reveals the brand’s new tagline, “Imported
Polish Ford Mustang Club Shows how to YouTube America's Original Pony Car
.fullpost { display: inline; } It’s no secret that I’m a dyed-in-the-wool Mustang man. Though I acknowledge the gorgeous styling, sweet-as-syrup handling and raw power of cars like the Chevy Camaro, I know at heart I’d take a ’67 Mustang fastback over one of them any day. So when the chaps and chapettes at the Mustang Klub Polska (Polish Mustang Club) release a video that not only

.fullpost { display: inline; } Porsche is out to prove that luxury sports saloons can offer exceptional fuel economy and low emissions without losing on performance with its new Panamera S Hybrid model, the first details of which were released earlier today. Shortly after the presentation Porsche also published a short video of the hybrid model in motion, which you can check out after the
VIDEO: Ferrari FF Snagged on Film in Barcelona, Spain
.fullpost { display: inline; } It won't be long before we get to see the new Ferrari FF in the flesh at the Geneva Salon, but until then, we'll have to do with whatever additional photos the Italians decide to publish and if we're lucky, some private scoops like these videos posted by a Youtube user who caught the all-wheel drive supercar completely undisguised in Barcelona Spain. Sadly, the
Ardalan Farboud’s Pagani Sei Concept: Better than the Huayra?
.fullpost { display: inline; } You may be surprised to learn that the Pagani Huayra isn’t my cup of tea (that’s Anglo-speak for “ I don’t like it”). Conversely, I have a great amount of affection for the Zonda and its limited-run sister, the Zonda F. The Huayra seems more Spyker-lookalike than Enzo-killer, which many would agree was the first generation Z’s raison d’ĂȘtre. I also like
VIDEO: Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Goes Donuts...
.fullpost { display: inline; } Looks like some uber-rich, uber-spoiled and probably uber-bored fellas found a new way to enjoy "The Spirit of Ecstasy". The 'richouligans' attempted to have a bit of slideway fun with a Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe at a parking lot by performing donuts around other parked cars. Not the best way to enjoy a luxurious behemoth with a kerbweight of close to
VIDEO: Chevy Volt's Chief Engineer Takes First Pre-Production Model for a Spin
.fullpost { display: inline; } Even though General Motors is in the midst of bankruptcy protection, the firm's engineers and technicians have somehow managed to stay ahead in the development of the Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid - or at least that's what they support. On Wednesday, the automaker completed the build of the first pre-production Volt more than a week ahead of schedule. Up

Tunisians Destroy Ferrari California Allegedly Owned by a Family Member of the Exiled President [with Videos]
.fullpost { display: inline; } Earlier this week, a video showing ousted Tunisian President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano dangling from the forks of an industrial truck made world headlines. But that wasn't the only car from Maranello to be targeted by the angry protesters. New videos and photos showing yet another Prancing Horse model being 'liberated' have now surfaced
Leaked Magazine Shots Overshadow Fourth Pagani C9 Video Teaser
.fullpost { display: inline; } Only a few hours after Pagani released the fourth teaser of the upcoming supercar codenamed C9 – and dubbed Huayra by an increasing number of sources –, a set of allegedly official magazine scans surfaced online. The pictures are said to be sourced from the upcoming February edition of the Spanish-language Car Magazine, featuring several shots of Horacio
Live Photos and First Video of Chevy's Steroid Packed Camaro ZL1
.fullpost { display: inline; } The Camaro that all Chevy fans were waiting for made its way to the Windy City today for its world premiere. It may not carry the more widely recognized Z28 name-tag as Chevrolet chose to resurrect the less known ZL1 moniker from the 1969 model, but then again, this is a different beast. Lurking behind that angry looking fascia is 6.2-liter V8 powerplant
2012 Acura TL: Video and Live Photos from the Chicago Auto Show
.fullpost { display: inline; } In an attempt to win back buyers that were turned off by the fourth generation TL's controversial looks, Acura revealed a mid-cycle refresh for the 2012 model year version of the car at the Chicago Auto Show. We've already brought you the key details in our previous post (see here), but now we have a fresh batch of photos and a walkaround video of the 2012 TL

Classic Ads: Why a Hyundai Excel is as Good as a BMW 325i
.fullpost { display: inline; } If this ad is to be taken seriously, the only difference between a late 1980s E30 BMW 325i and a Hyundai Excel is price and the engine / transmission layout. After all both have, “[A] plush interior, European styling [and] room for five.” After all, niggling little details like equipment levels, brand image and build quality have never bothered car buyers
VIDEO: Nissan Esflow Sports Coupe Concept in Some Tron-Like Digital Action
.fullpost { display: inline; } Leaving aside the name which sounds like something a German (no offense) would say to an English bloke that stole his parking space, Nissan's Geneva motorshow-bound Esflow concept is a very interesting proposal for a pure-electric sports coupe. It uses the Leaf's battery technology but with a lot more juice from the electric motors that motivate the rear wheels
