News: Ford GT Competition Series
Feb 25, 2017, 9:02 AM The first Ford GT's are being delivered to their customers, but Ford has more in store! Ford is showing the ultra-lightweight Ford GT Competition Series for North America in Daytona, the site of its win at the Rolex 24 in January. The Ford GT Competition Series was engineered to build on the car’s innovative lightweight and aerodynamic design. The track fans’ ultimate production car removes weight higher in the vehicle and shifts the center of gravity closer to the track for even better road-holding, and to maximize its 647 horsepower engine.

Spot of the Day USA: White Lamborghini Huracan in Atlanta
Feb 23, 2017, 9:20 PM The Huracan is a success for Lamborghini and the 2016 record sales numbers don't lie! In 2016, Lamborghini sold a total of 3,457 cars, and 2,353 of them were the Huracan (both in the Coupe and Spyder version). The Spyder was not available until the second quarter of 2016, so we expect sales to grow easily to 3,500 cars in 2017. More proof of its success? This Huracan is #69 for spotter Horse-Power!

Gemballa returns with the Avalanche
Feb 23, 2017, 1:36 PM Gemballa is the brand known for its "ups and downs". Soon after the launch of the unique Gemballa MIG-U1, the Gemballa factory was seized by German authorities and shut down following the disappearance of Uwe Gemballa, who was later found dead. But the brand is making a comeback and it will be present at the Geneva Auto Show with the new Gemballa Avalanche. That is good news for its customers on the Arabic Peninsula where Gemballa enjoyed much success.

Spy Spot: Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo
Feb 23, 2017, 8:54 AM In about 10 days the world press will gather in Geneva. And with all the new models it is safe to say that the Geneva Auto Show is the most important auto show in the world, especially when we focus on luxury and exotic cars. Many brands will use Geneva as the launch platform of new models, and Porsche will be one of them. We expect Porsche to officially introduce the Panamera Sport Turismo and just before its debut the car was spotted with minimum camouflage.

Feb 22, 2017, 10:59 PM Last month Porsche announced the 991.2 GTS series and we expect to see the first spots of this car in the US very soon. But till then, we can enjoy the 991 GTS, like this copy finished in Racing Yellow. I think we can all agree that the color looks stunning on this Carrera GTS. The 991 Carrera GTS was spotted by Rivitography in Greenwich (CT).

Aston Martin introduces the V8 and V12 Vantage S Red Bull Racing
Feb 21, 2017, 10:39 AM After you thought you've seen it all, Aston Martin just launched two new Vantage S models. Just as we thought that the GT8 would be the last Vantage model, Aston Martin surprises us again with these Formula One inspired models. The DB11 is already on the market, but that didn't stop Aston Martin to work with Red Bull Racing and launch these special edition V8 and V12 models. Both cars come with autographs from both Daniel Ricciardo and Formula One rookie of the year, Max Verstappen.

Aston Martin Vantage GT8
Feb 21, 2017, 8:55 AM The Aston Martin Vantage GT8 is a mean looking machine! The Vantage that has been on the market since 2005(!), received in April 2016 a final special edition. After the GT12, Aston Martin introduced the GT8 and this copy has an attitude! This track-ready car will probably be driving on the streets of London, and not on the track what it is built for.

Spot of the Day USA: Mercedes-AMG G 63 2016
Feb 20, 2017, 11:59 PM Back in 2015, we welcomed the Crazy Color edition of the Mercedes-Benz G 63 AMG. It received the nickname "Expensive Smarties or Skittles". This special edition G-Wagen offered the paint choices like Solar Beam, Sunset Beam, Tomato Red, Galactic Beam, and Alien Beam. For the Mercedes-AMG 2016 G-series the color variety was widely expanded, and it included all "Crazy Colors" now presented in the AMG Performance Studio package. Rivitography spotted this 2016 G-series with the $15,000 package in the Sunsetbeam color.

Is the Rolls Royce Dawn the ultimate car for Monaco?
Feb 20, 2017, 11:00 PM The Rolls Royce Dawn is in my opinion the ultimate car for Monaco. It is not the fastest or the most expensive car you will find in the sovereign city-state, but with 300 sunny days a year and a mild climate it makes this car the ultimate tourer for the boulevards. The tunnel might not be as exciting compared to a drive in an open Lamborghini, McLaren or Ferrari but it certainly is a great car for everyday use.
