Pontiac Tempest GT-37 Sport Coupé, 1970. An appearance and handling package available for a short time on two different intermediate A-body Pontiacs. For an extra $198 Pontiac offered Rally II wheels with white letter tires, heavy-duty suspension, dual exhausts, a floor-mounted 3-speed manual with a Hurst shifter and striping from ’69 GTO The Judge. When the Tempest was discontinued during 1970 the pack was carried over to the Pontiac LeMans Coupé but was then replaced in 1972 by the LeMans Sport 

GT-37 Always thought this was a nice package. Kind of a cut-price Goat (at least visually). And this was always the nicest shape for the intermediates. The Colonnade theme—which, when you think about it, also infected the Vauxhall Viva (HC) and Victor (FE)—was characterless in my eyes.

Green Lovely McLaren 570S. Mine’s considerably smaller but the same colour.

Eleven Looking good in white.

Post-Magnum, 328 GTS It just doesn’t look as good with the federal colour-keyed bumpers and the later spec.

BMW M135i xDrive, 2020. First uncamouflaged images of the new generation 1-series have leaked. The car is due to be presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September

Einser Front-wheel drive, just like the existing Chinese saloon. 

On April 3, the Passat broke the 30-million-model mark for production in the Volkswagen plant at Emden. VW claim that no other mid-range model globally has been sold more than the Passat . The 30,000,000th vehicle was a Passat GTE Variant with a plug-in hybrid drive finished in Pyrite Silver Metallic. Volkswagen launched production of the first Passat models in its Wolfsburg plant on May 14 1973 

Thirty million Volkswagen is probably right with that claim. Most mid-size ranges have had name changes during their run, even if they are part of a single lineage (e.g. Ascona–Vectra–Insignia; Taunus–Sierra–Mondeo), and very few have been built on as many continents for as long. Even Toyota and Nissan cut short the lives of their mid-range cars, the Carina, Corona and Bluebird.

March 31 1949 marked the founding of Abarth & C by Carlo Abarth (1908-1979) in Bologna, Northern Italy. Abarth is celebrating the milestone with the new “70th Anniversary” range

Abarth Happy 70th birthday, Abarth.

Audi ASC GT Cabriolet Concept, 1986. A prototype built by ASC Inc for Audi of America, based on the B2 series Audi Coupé. The car remained a one-off 

Topless I have to say ASC did some lovely conversions.

Piëch Mark Zero, 2019. A electric GT concept from Toni Piëch, great-grandson of Ferdinand Porsche, son of Ferdinand Piëch who was chairman of the executive board of Volkswagen Group 1993-2002 and the chairman of the supervisory board of Volkswagen Group 2002-2015. 

Family Well, if there’s already a Porsche brand, why not Piëch?

Bugatti “La Voiture Noire”, 2019. A one-off that is “far more” than amodern interpretation of Jean Bugatti’s Type 57 SC Atlantic (pictured). For €11 million (before tax) this unique car has already been sold to a Bugatti enthusiast. It is the most expensive new car of all time.

The black car Looks beautiful (unlike some Bugattis), but as a one-off, I mightn’t be able to add it to Autocade.

Ford LTD Station Wagon Art Car 1996 (1983), by George Lilanga. An art car by the East African artist (1934-2005) is for sale in Germany for €1,990,000 ($2,250,192). The work had previously been offered in 2017 for $4.9 million

Facelifted Fairmont Remember when Ford took its flagship LTD nameplate and stuck it on what was a compact five years before? Cheap “downsizing” trick. No one was convinced.

Oldsmobile Toronado ‘Mannix Roadster’, 1967, by George Barris. Created by the famous customiser for the 60′s TV series Mannix, the one-off Toronado roadster is for sale on eBay for £135,000

Mannix Here’s your chance to get Joe Mannix’s car.    I play the theme regularly in my car and this would absolutely complement that.

The new Ferrari Imagine what a sensation 300 PS would have been back in 1964.

Neunelfer The early 911 looks so pure, especially on the 2,211 mm wheelbase.

Citroën Xanthia Concept, 1986. A speedster prototype based on the Citroen AX 

AX speedster Another what-if. Citroën could have cleaned up if they put this into production.

1953 Fiat 8V Zagato Elaborata -  prettiest car in the world.

Look at dem side vents 👀

Fiat If only Fiat still did stuff like this under its own marque.
