The New Grand Bentley, Or At Least The Front Of It!




Just in case all of you didn't know Bentley's current flagship, the Arnage is the last vestige of old Bentley prior to becoming part of the Volkswagen Group. The luxury automaker is currently in the process of building the 150 final series Arnage models and getting ready to launch a replacement.

That car now dubbed the new Grand Bentley still remains very much a mystery, but the folks in Crewe have released the first teaser image and video of the new car. At this point all we know is that it will bear the famed winged B hood ornament. Bentley will be the featured marque at this year's Pebble Beach Concours and that is expected to to be the site of the Grand Bentley's debut. In the meantime check out the special site for the car at http://www.newgrandbentley.com.

The Debut of Veritas RS III




Veritas RS III is most certainly a dream car, let's make no mistake about that. This is a beauty of a car that is the revival of the 40's-era BMW racing team. Who doesn't love an open cockpit super car? It comes with a choice of two BMW M-sourced powertrains, 480hp V8 or 600hp V10 which allows it to reach 60 mph from a standstill in the three-second range en route to a top speed over 200 mph with either engine and no electronic aids! The much awaited car starts from a base price of $375,000 and only 50 models are going to be produced!

A Powerful Package: The Ferrari 599XX !!





Ferrari is synonymous with not just the color ed but class, style and of course - speed. And their latest beauty, the 599XX which was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show was the embodiment of all these traits and much more. Based on the 599 GTB Fiorano, the €1.1million ($1.4 million) prototype model is a hardcore racer that comes equipped with many advanced features. The modifications on the bodywork help the 599XX to produce 280 kg or 717lbs of downforce at 200km/h (124mph) and 630kg or 1,390 lbs at 300km/h (187mph). Sorry I'm really into cars so I had to give specs! LOL, this car is mean and with that price tag we all know only certain people will be able to afford it!
