Morgan EvaGT makes debut at Pebble Beach
by Frank Filipponio
The Morgan Motor Company has been making new cars all along, but some people seem to have forgotten that fact as most of their "new" models looked a heckuva lot like their old models. That started to change with the introduction of their Aero cars a few years ago – and we predict the name "Morgan" will be a little more common once their latest concept hits showrooms. The company took the wraps off their new EvaGT in Pebble Beach on Sunday, right in front of the Pebble Beach Lodge on the concept lawn of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. We had seen a partial sketch a few weeks ago, but holy wow is this car stunning in person. There's a full press release after the jump and a gallery of high-res pics for you too, but the basic stats are these: It uses a 3.0-liter BMW straight six that produces 306 horsepower, a six-speed automatic or manual transmission, weighs just 2,755 pounds, gets 40 miles per gallon (Imperial) and can scoot from 0-60 in 4.5 seconds. |

Jaguar XJ75 Platinum concept marks 75 years of The Cat [w/Video]
The Jaguar XKR175 isn't the only special kitty making its debut out in Monterey. Jag's new limited-production coupe is joined by the one-off XJ75 Platinum concept created to honor of the brand's 75th anniversary. Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance attendees will find it parked on the Concept Car Lawn.
Pearlescent white paint provides a stark contrast to the big saloon's blacked-out grille, D-pillar, and custom 22-inch wheels. Inside, black leather seats get quilted, diamond-stitch suede inserts. The same material also adorns the headliner. Additional glitz comes courtesy of the Bremont Watch Company, which is responsible for the bespoke clock installed in the XJ75's console.
If the 470-horsepower supercharged 5.0-liter V8 doesn't provide enough entertainment, the XJ75 Platinum also features a 1,200-watt, 20-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system. Check out both the official photos and live pictures in high-res galleries below or follow the jump for video walkaround by Jaguar design Boss Ian Callum. |

Bentley unveils pair of limited edition Continental GTC models
by Frank Filipponio
2011 Bentley Continental GTC Speed 80-11 Edition
Pebble Beach is fast becoming one of the best places for new car debuts. Besides seeing the McLaren MP4-12C, Fiorvanti SP1, Perana Z-One, Morgan EvaGT, Jaguar XK175, Jaguar XJ75 Platinum, Boss 302 Mustang, Veyron Super Sport, Lotus Exos T125, Lotus Evora GT4 Cup, and so on and so on, we just got to see the new Bentley Continental GTC and GTC Speed 80-11 Editions. These 80-11 models, designed exclusively for the North American market, will be limited to just 80 units each. The "11" in the title refers to 2011, the model year of these specials.
These are basically trim packages, adding things like 20-inch, 14-spoke polished wheels, and red calipers on the Speed, but they at least look tasteful. While the 80-11 Editions will be available in any Bentley color, they've introduced a new color – Midnight – that will be exclusive to these models.
If the wheels or special color don't tip you off to the special nature of these vehicles, you might be able to spot them by their little Union Jack badges on the front fenders. Check out the full press release after the jump for more details and be sure to peruse our gallery as well. |

2011 Ford Explorer unveiled live from coast to coast
by Drew Phillips
It's been quite a day for the new 2011 Ford Explorer. After teasing, more teasing, and even more teasing, Ford finally unveiled what it thinks will "reinvent the SUV for the 21st century." At 12:01 EST this morning, we presented an in-depth look at the new Explorer, providing details on the new exterior and interior as well as some of the safety features, and at noon we went over the new powertrain options, including the 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline-4 that will deliver 30 percent better fuel efficiency than the previous V6 model. Ford has even put up a configurator for the 2011 Explorer, allowing you to build your own. |

Sportec Tunes Porsche Panamera Turbo
Sportec, the Swiss tuning house, has unveiled two upgrade programs for Porsche's 4.8-liter V8 Panamera Turbo.
The first, or Stage One, kit uses a reconfigured ECU that works to optimize the settings for the vehicle's fuel intake, ignition and boost level. Sportec claims the modded vehicle now sports a "dyno-proven" 560 horsepower and 576 pound-feet of torque, increases of 67 hp and 60 lb-ft over the stock Panamera Turbo. Acceleration is improved by 0.3 second for a 0-62 mph time of 3.9 seconds, and the top speed is limited to 190 mph.
Sportec's Stage Two conversion adds a cat-back stainless-steel sports exhaust system to the mix. It features 3.5-inch tailpipes and what the tuner calls "sound throttles" that allow the driver to remotely control the exhaust note. Power figures stand at 575 hp and 598 lb-ft for the Stage Two package, resulting in a 0-62 time of 3.8 seconds and the same maximum speed of 190 mph.

The Most Extreme Mercedes-Benz Tuner Car Ever Built
By Joe Tonto
Founded in 1989 by the Hartge brothers, Carlsson has become famous for its exclusive work with Mercedes-Benz, a specialty that has put the company from Gut Wiesenhof, Germany, into a league of its own. So when it came time to commemorate its 20th anniversary, the company decided something special was needed, something that was more than just another tuned-up Mercedes.
The result is the 2010 Carlsson C25, a unique grand-touring coupe that starts life as a Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG and goes completely nuts from there. Only 25 examples will be built and Carlsson says they're already spoken for at around $650,000 apiece. The car you see here is the first prototype and if it's any indication, those 25 buyers are in for something special.
