Spied: New 2011 Audi A8

The upcoming Audi A8 (2011 model year) was recently spied on in full camouflage. With a date set later this year to reveal the new Audi A8, it is expected to be 10cm longer than the current model. The new A8 will use more weight-saving materials and incorporate more fuel efficient engines.

The new Audi A8 will rival against the Lexus LS, BMW 7-series and Mercedes-Benz S-class. The range of engines will include a 3.0-liter and 4.2-liter V8.

BMW X5 M Spotted In Black – Spy Photo

We recently showed you a behind the scenes clip showcasing the development of the new BMW X6M and now we have an exclusive spy shot of what seems to be the upcoming BMW X5 M at the BMW Performance Delivery Center. The photo was taken by Gadgetman, aka Darren who happens to be a good friend of AutomotiveAddicts.com’s owner.

BMW is probably hoping that this will attract more consumers to the Sports Utility Vehicles with having a great gain in the performance arena. The BMW X5 was already a big hit and now the BMW X5 M should not disappoint, at least not in the performance area when it may sport a new twin turbo V8 or the n/a V10 from the M5 as rumored.

New Official Photo: New BMW Z4 Rear-End Shot

My friend Horatiu at BMWBlog posted an image from the 2009 BMW Z4 catalog/brochure, a teaser photo with the new Z4. Of course from the brochure scan the image seems a bit obscured but none-the-less, you can tell what the new Z4 will actually look like. We recently posted a spy shot of the new Z4 on the set of a new upcoming movie.
