| Spied: Mercedes S-Class Maybach Prototype Pounds its Tires on the Ring Posted: 19 Aug 2014 04:14 PM PDT  If this is indeed the Maybach version of the new Mercedes S-Class, and it probably is, judging by the extended distance between its axles and odd spot to place camo, then it's being tested for the kind of driving it will most likely never do.

| Scoop: Lotus Cooking Another Special Elise Model Posted: 19 Aug 2014 02:25 PM PDT  With its grand plan for a multitude of new models flushed down the same pipe as the man who originally conceived the idea at the 2010 Paris auto show, Lotus is back to its good ol' reheating tricks. Read more »   |
| Enjoy the Purity of this Well Maintained 1966 Porsche 912 Posted: 19 Aug 2014 12:46 PM PDT  There's just something undeniably enticing about the entry level Porsche 912, built from 1965 to 1969. Unlike later four-cylinder models, it had the exact same shape as the six-cylinder 911 of the time, yet in having a smaller, lesser-powered engine that was placed closer to the rear wheels and a generally lower weight, it was easier and more forgiving to drive.

| Renovo Coupe Detailed in Pebble Beach Video Posted: 19 Aug 2014 12:00 PM PDT  The Renovo Coupe is cool for any number of reasons, but primarily for the way it looks and the fact that it's fully electric and completely modern and up to date. It may look like a Shelby Daytona coupe from the sixties, but it actually rides on a modern (Shelby American) chassis and the bodywork is actually all new, redesigned by Peter Brock, the man who also penned the original. This means the Tesla Model S' title of the coolest Silicon Valley EV is severely under threat – it simply can't compete in terms of looks and panache. Where it can compete, though, is in the range department, where even the basic Model S does notably better than the 100 miles the manufacturer claims the coupe can do. XCAR caught up with the car and one of its (unnamed?) proponents and creators at Pebble Beach. It's our first look at the car outside of the official trailer and photos. By Andrei Nedelea Video   |

| Project CARS Promises to be the First Forza- or GT-Esque Experience on PC Posted: 19 Aug 2014 05:28 AM PDT  While PC users are perfectly comfortable talking about all manner of games they can play, their confident discourse quickly turns to hushed mumbles when you ask them if there are any games like Forza or Gran Turismo available for the platform.

| All-New Skoda Fabia Revealed; Looks Like a More Angular Audi A1 Sportback Posted: 19 Aug 2014 04:54 AM PDT  Skoda is clearly shooting slightly more upmarket than before, with its all-new Fabia, which looks a heck of a lot like an Audi A1 Sportback, if not in terms of fine details, then in general proportions and side profile. It bears absolutely no resemblance to its predecessor. Read more »   |
