Cadillac SRX reborn
Almost
exactly a year after revealing the Provoq Concept, Cadillac is
debuting the redesigned 2010 SRX wearing essentially the same
suit of clothes. At that time, the Provoq was thought to be a
preview of a new smaller crossover called the BRX, but Cadillac
informed us last summer that the "BRX" was actually
the all-new SRX. We'll be seeing the new SRX in production form
at the Detroit Auto Show, and while automakers often throw the
term "all-new" around, in this case it really seems
to apply. More

2009
Mercedes-Benz CLS Grand Edition
The
Mercedes-Benz CLS is due for a refresh within the next two years,
but before M-B releases an all-new version of its pioneering and
often imitated four-door "coupe," at least one special
edition is in order. The 2009 Mercedes-Benz CLS Grand Edition
features a set of bi-xenon headlamps, with an integrated cleaning
and range adjustment system, along with fog lamps that swivel
with the steering wheel to illuminate around the bend. AMG provides
a set of 18-inch, five-spoke wheels coated in titanium grey and
wrapped in 245/40 (front) and... More

GM
ups incentives: zero percent financing for up to 60 months
General
Motors is celebrating GMAC's decision to loosen credit restrictions
by increasing incentives on many remaining 2008 models. Effective
immediately, the General is offering 0% APR for 60 months on the
2008 Chevy TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy, and the entire Saab lineup.
All GMT900 full-size SUVs and every member of the 2008 Cadillac
lineup also gets a big-time incentive boost, with 1.9% financing
available for 60 months. The rock-bottom deals come in addition
to cash incentives of up to $4,250. GM is also offering financing
as low as 3.9% on select 2009 models, including the well-received
Cadillac CTS. Hit the jump to see GM's official list of available
financing specials. More

GMAC
opens up financing after $5 billion fed loan
GMAC
is officially opening up lending to buyers with credit scores
of 621 or higher after a $5 billion investment from the federal
government. A credit score of 621 is considered by some lenders
to be the Mendoza line that separates good borrowers from the
subprime. The financing arm of General Motors, which is majority
owned by Chrysler's sugar daddy, Cerberus Capital Management,
had been crippling the automaker's ability to sell cars and trucks
after declaring in October only customers with credit scores of
700 or better would be lent to. More

Honda
Zest gets extra Spark
Honda
apparently decided that its home-market Zest Sports wasn't zesty
enough. Away it went to the plastic surgeon for a freshened look
with more flavor. The result is the Zest Spark. Instead of basically
carrying over the base Zest's vanilla look up front, the Spark
gets a new fascia with a V-shaped grille/lights combo hovering
above the car's big, flat bumper. 660cc NA and turbo kei-spec
engines reside underhood. More

Rolls-Royce
does another special edition Phantom, this time in Sapphire
The
bespoke department at Rolls-Royce has come up with another special
edition Phantom to go along with the already released Phantom
Pearl, Phantom Silver, and Phantom Tungsten. This one is the Phantom
Sapphire, and unlike its rarefied stablemates, it gets built on
the long wheelbase spaceframe.More

Reiter
Engineering builds Gallardo GT3 for the street
Turning
road cars into race cars and then back into road cars seems to
be Reiter Engineering's new specialty. The factory-supported Lamborghini
race team, which also recently built a street-legal variant of
their Murcielago R-GT that competes in the FIA GT1 and European
Le Mans Series, is now offering a road version of their Gallardo
GT3 racecar. Based off the standard Gallardo with the 5.0L V10,
the "Strada".... More

Lamborghini
running strong with record sales and profit in 2008
The
current economic conditions may be wreaking havoc on the Detroit
Three, along iwth Toyota and Honda, but Lamborghini is apparently
impervious to the global financial crisis. The House of the Raging
Bull posted record sales and profit records for the fourth straight
year and has followed through on its promise to introduce a new
model every year during that time period. The company has no intentions
of reducing funding for R&D, and plans to expand its global
presence and dealer network throughout the next year. More

BMW
announces pricing for 2009 7 Series, raises prices on everything
else
The
latest iteration of BMW's all-singing, all-dancing plutocrat limo
will roll out the door starting at $81,125. That sum will get
buyers the 2009 750i (including $825 for destination charges),
but those who are looking for a bit more legroom in back will
have to pay $85,025 for the 750Li. Production for these models
began last month, but don't expect to see them on the forecourts
of your local BMW Center until later this spring.More

Mansory
builds mysterious Bugatti Veyron Vincero
We're
convinced the Bugatti Veyron has to have the highest ratio of
variants per total production -- Ford Mustang included. There's
the Sang Noir, a first and second version of the Hermes, Pur Sang,
Grand Sport, and now the Vincero built by Mansory. Not much is
known about the car since no information is listed on the Swiss
tuner's web site, but United Arab Emirates exotic car dealer Prestige
Cars has posted the car for sale, listing it as one of three built.

Audi
Prices A6/S6 starting at $45,100/$75,900
Audi's
upgraded A6 and S6 are scheduled to hit US dealerships in January,
and the four-ringed midsize sedan has new pricing to match its
upgraded powertrains. The A6 3.2 premium stars at $45,100, a price
bump of over $2,000 over the 2008 model. The newest member of
the A6 family, which comes with a 300 hp supercharged 3.0L V6
and standard quattro AWD, starts at $53,310. That's $3,000 less
than the starting price of the previous generation 4.2L V8, which
packed more punch at 350 hp, but the 3.0T fights back with more
low-end grunt and far better fuel economy. More

First
Drive: 2009 Nissan 370Z
The
moment the first batch of Z spy shots surfaced, it was obvious
that Nissan's sports car was on its way back from the gym. The
coupe was wider, shorter and more sculpted. Although the Z's overall
length has been shortened by 2.7 inches, the wheelbase cut by
3.9 inches and a set of aluminum doors join an aluminum hood and
hatch, Nissan has only managed to shave 95 pounds from the curb
weight of the standard model. More

SSC Ultimate Aero boasts 1287 hp, claimed top speed of 270 mph
After
taking the Guinness-verified top speed world record, SSC has revamped
the Ultimate Aero for 2009 to make it more powerful, more aerodynamic,
and even faster. We thought the 2008 model had plenty of horsepower
with 1183 ponies underneath the hood, but SSC has increased that
number to 1287 courtesy of a new one-piece billet aluminum engine
block that improves structural integrity and oiling capabilities.
