We'll all be en route to the Detroit Auto Show next week and, while the Cobo Center that holds the show has never been the nicest place, it's at least quite large and reasonably well organized (as compared to the NY Auto Show or Geneva).

This car was sold just 10 mins down the road from my fam's vacation home!

Oh geez that's terrible

That top photo just REEKS of Borat!

What the hell is this shift knob? It looks like a gnawed-on piece of cork.

THE PROLETARIAT APPROVES OF THIS REAR WIPER!!!

Ladies and gentlemen... I present to you the Don Francisco of the Czech Republic!

I've seen this car. It's an absolute tragedy. Why the giant wing? Why on a an old cabrio? The RUF wheels don't even make sense on this car. Just a weird styling mishmash of expensive crap.

That's a G-Series Targa. This is his first 964 Targa.

Now playing

Umm, the drivetrain wasn't fairy dust. Autocar tested it with the hybrid drivetrain fully functioning. Yes, it didn't go into production, but it also was real and functioned.

That C&C wouldn't happen to be in Connecticut would it? Because I've seen a similar Tesla man - who's made his own billboard... Ugh.

What a hideous ugly crap can of a machine. Also, while the X6's turbo 6 can only "crap out" 300 horses, the V8 brings 445 horses to the party with the optional power kit up to 480.

But yet it looks largely like the current LS?

Isn't this thing just the Lexus LS with the GS450h's hybrid powertrain? Not sure I'm understanding what you're missing here... And yes I read the linked article. Still unclear.

As I recall, this music video either featured a Saab 900 Turbo or a 9000 Turbo. Hooray Saab!

Any guesses?

The Rocket was designed by Henrik Fisker, who has a pretty good track record of designing striking cars. He's worked on the BMW Z8, Aston Martin DB8 and 9, and, of course, the Fisker Karma, which, for all its troubles, was at the very least a remarkable design.

The M4 show car had a color called Aurum Dust (not Rust) and the production color (which is slightly different) is called Austin Yellow.

Meh, yawn. Pretty underwhelming concept - looks like a mildly updated big A5. Nothing really special or innovative - at least choose a more interesting color for this thing?

The 1000 hp claim is false. BMW utilized a 6.0 liter V12 from the 760 Li which pushed out 232 horses (low power output due to the nature of liquid hydrogen). The extremely low drag coefficient is what enabled the top speed of 187 MPH.
