Porsche is currently testing the new Taycan, their first full electric car.

Lamborghini Countach in Dubai
Jul 3, 2018, 5:59 PM In this modern Middle Eastern country we don't see too many spots of classic supercars. We are no longer surprised to see a Bugatti, LaFerrari or Lamborghini SV in Dubia, and Bentleys, G-class AMG's are a dime a dozen in the economic center of the Middle East. But to see a Countach is still uncommon, especially with the extreme heat and sandy conditions. Because let's be honest, the cars of the 80's were not the most reliable.

The Portofino is an aggressively-styled car with a two-box fastback configuration that adds extra sleekness to its silhouette, lending it a sportier character.

Spotted: Bentley Mulsanne Hallmark Edition
Jun 4, 2018, 4:08 PM Now that the storm about the Phantom VIII has passed, we can start appreciating the recently updated Mulsanne again. It is Bentley's top of the line car, and together with the Phantom these two cars are in their own league. And if that is not good enough, you can always order a limited edition, like this "Hallmark Edition". With only 50 copies made the chances are small that your next door neighbor is pulling up the driveway in the same car.

Almost perfect: Bugatti EB110 GT in Paris, France
Jun 4, 2018, 10:19 AM This Bugatti is - almost - perfect! If it wasn't for the little 'error' with the license plate I would say, it is perfection. The gorgeous Bugatti EB110 GT dressed in white is a feast for the eye. It makes the car look very 'current', like the owner just drove it from the showroom floor. The car is almost 25 years old and is already considered a modern classic and the increasing values are proof of that.
