Pagani has released photos of a new one-off Pagani Zonda dubbed the Zonda Tricolore built to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Italian air force Frecce Tricolori team. You can think of them as being an Italian version of the U.S. Navy’s Blue Angels.
2011 Porsche Cayenne Official Details and Images Revealed
Porsche has released official details and images of the new 2011 Porsche Cayenne. The new Cayenne will go on sale first in Europe starting May 8th of this year and then hit the U.S. market in July.

By the Numbers: Audi RS5 vs. BMW M3
I know that it can be rather premature to compare the E92 BMW M3 to the new Audi RS5 considering that no one has driven the new RS5. Can we be a little hypothetical here just for a minute? Okay, great. Let’s take the new E92 BMW M3 with all of its 414hp and 295 ft-lbs. of torque V8 glory and put it up against the new 2011 Audi RS5’s naturally aspirated 450hp and 317 ft-lbs. of torque 4.2-liter V8. What do you get? Obviously you get a much more powerful engine in the RS5. But that’s where I draw the line for the advantages of the RS5 over the current BMW M3.

This week’s Internet Find of the Week takes us back to a Volkswagen Karmann Ghia that was restored over a period of 6 months allowing the artist to turn it into a true work of art. A rare gem that it is, the VW Karmann Ghia stole the hearts of automotive enthusiasts back in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s just as it does today for those peculiar enough to love a curvaceous German engineered automobile. Enjoy!

In Audi’s attempt to prove that they are growing faster than BMW, Lexus and Mercedes Benz, they have released a new commercial of what they think people have been told to desire. I have to say this commercial is rather catchy. Check it out below. Enjoy!
