2013 Lexus RX Leaked

Lexus recently confirmed that it would be unveiling its full range of F Sport and hybrid vehicles at March’s 2012 Geneva Motor Show, including two new models set for launch this year.

The two new models are the facelifted 2013 Lexus RX and a brand new RX F Sport based on the RX 450h hybrid, both of which have now been revealed thanks to a leaked official brochure.

The brochure, which was first picked up by Minkara, shows the new 2013 RX from almost every angle and includes details on some of the options and pricing for the Japanese market.

Second-Gen Tesla Roadster

The Tesla Roadster was forced to bow out of the market last year due to Lotus choosing to end production of its own Elise and Exige sports cars, with which the Tesla shared a platform.

While this is bad news for electric sports car fans, Tesla is promising to build a successor though it won’t be on sale for several years still.


This second-generation Tesla Roadster was previously expected sometime in 2014, but now the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, has revealed that its launch has been pushed back to late 2015.

Toyota Confirms That Stripped Scion FR-S

That contrasts with the Japanese launch of the Toyota GT-86 and the Subaru BRZ, both of which will come in decontented versions for the home market. Aimed at racers, tuners and even buyers on a tight budget, the least expensive Toyota GT-86 will come without painted bumpers, alloy wheels, an audio system or even air conditioning.
As Automotive News (subscription required) reports, it will also come with a price tag roughly $10,500 less than a basic Japanese-market GT-86, which will be priced from $36,447 to $38,343. That makes the car particularly attractive to buyers looking to build race cars, drift cars or just highly personalized rides, all of which are popular in Japan.

2012 Lexus RX 350 review

The 2012 Lexus RS 350 is a relatively safe choice in the crowded premium mid-size crossover segment.

It is aimed at those buyers who appreciate luxury and quality and aren’t too concerned with performance and handling.

That’s not to say that the RX is a dud to drive but if you like to carve up a winding road every so often, the BMW X5 or Volvo XC60 may be more to your liking.


Where the Lexus really shines is its smooth and refined drivetrain, pleasant looks, and a reputation for dealer service and reliability.

Aston Martin V12 Zagato

The new images and information follow the pictures that leaked some days ago.

The V12 Zagato will be officially unveiled at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, and the first deliveries are scheduled for Fall 2012, with a price of £330,000 excluding taxes.

Below we report the official information on the car, including details on the design development and the assembly process.

From the official Press Release:

The V12 Zagato will be the pinnacle of the” Vantage range”, as well as the latest expression of a creative collaboration with the Italian coachbuilder.

The partnership has given rise to a series of GT cars over the last half-century, the original and most iconic of which being the DB4GT Zagato, whose 50th anniversary provided the inspiration for the V12 Zagato.

Though commemorating a great Aston Martin of the past the V12 Zagato could be no mere pastiche of the original. Instead the project was seen as the perfect opportunity to take Aston Martin’s ethos of technology and tradition to a new and exciting level.
