Car Throttle

I was wondering when this was going to happen. Magic 8-Ball says that the next iteration of Audi's S8 flagship will have a big, Lamborghini V10 sitting 'neath the bonnet and it will be cranking out, gulp, 620 horses. Since both Audi and Lambo are owned by the same corporate parent (Volkswagen) I always thought something like this was going to take place. One of the main reasons given for Lambo's jump in quality was the fact that they are being managed by former Audi guys. Also, there was that Audi R8 show car for a while back that had a Lambo V10 in it. So, it makes a whole lot of sense that Audi could write up a request via inter-office mail and ask

The Alfa Romeo Milano is being prepped as a replacement for the successful 147 hatchback. In the Alfa Romeo brand hiercharchy, the 147 is larger than the MiTo and is more in the mainstream for buying tastes in the European market. There has been renderings of the car that have surfaced, and the actual car itself looks very similar to them. It has been caught completely uncloaked- on Facebook, of all places. Blurry picture, I know. That's because it was snapped off (likely from a camera phone) from inside the Italian Alfa Romeo plant where this car is being built. Apparently they must be building a run of test prototypes or something, because there is a large group of the cars caught in the photos and the

Now this is a real scoop. All we've seen yet of the Arnage's replacement have been "Bentley Grand" teasers released directly from the company that don't offer us much. CAR Magazine has gotten some revealing images of the car caught inside Bentley's Crewe factory. What's more, they promise a second batch of pictures to be released on Monday. Spyshots of a car testing? Doesn't compare. This is really bringing to you what no one else has. There will be a definite visual change going from the current Bentley flagship to the new one. The classic Bentley twin headlight design remains, but is reworked. Previously both headlights were of similar size; this time the one closest to the grille clearly takes center stage. Sources at CAR say that the Arnage replacement also adds

Mercedes-Benz is busy reworking it's model lineup to make it more recognizable and easier to understand for consumers. For the recent redesign of the Mercedes E-Class, the CLK-Class moniker was dropped in favor of E-Class Coupe. For the new model, the E-Class Coupe still retains it's C-Class underpinnings though. Even though the new E-Class Coupe is based on the C-Class, a coupe badged C-Class Coupe could still be coming as well. I know, it can get kind of confusing! The new changes are taking place all across the lineup though, going all the way up to the most expensive Mercedes model, the S-Class. For model year 2011, the CL will be getting renamed to slot alongside the S-Class. CL no more; S-Class Coupe is the new name going forward. The renaming makes a lot of sense; the S-Class has
