Following on from its inaugural showing at the famous Villa D’Este Concours in May and its successful campaign in the Nürburgring 24 Hour a month later, the production V12 Zagato is all set to appear at the forthcoming Frankfurt motor show.

Whether or not you're a fan of Porsche's most enduring model, it's impossible to ignore just how influential it has been in the world of motoring (and motorsport). At 48 years young, it might be getting on a bit and yet it shows no sign of stagnating. The 2010 911 GT3 R Hybrid became the world's first hybrid to compete in an international GT championship. But the crowning glory of Weissach's most iconic car is the role it plays as a benchmark for every other manufacturer to reach and (try to) beat.

I've made no secret of my disgust at Greenpeace's recent anti-Volkswagen campaign, The Dark Side - it was misleading, divisive and downright ignorant.

Images of Ferrari's all-new 458 Spider leaked onto the internet last night thanks to Oldsmoboi on the Cheers and Gears forum.

You either love it or hate it, but you'd be hard pressed to argue that Nissan's niche soft-roader had much in the way of road presence. From its startled-looking front lights to its clipped rear-end, Juke is one of the least likely villains on our roads.

In response to BMW's M5, Kia will be unveiling a new sports saloon concept at the next month's Frankfurt motor show. "In response..?" I hear you say, "I didn't know there was a question that the Korean manufacturer needed to respond to.."

Lexus unveiled the new GS at the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in California this evening and in doing so introduced the new face of future Lexus models.

Inspired by the Lexus LF-Gh Concept, the new 2012 GS heralds a more engaging and dynamic driving focus for Toyota's luxury brand.

Jaguar's C-X16 production concept will make its global debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show on September 13, reigniting the hopes and desires of fans who have been patiently waiting for an F-Type.
