2012 Volkswagen Beetle

A quick look at the new 2012 Volkswagen Beetle reveals a car with more creases and edges to give it a more aggressive stance. The 2012 Beetle is 3.3 inches wider, 0.5 in. shorter in height and 6.0 in. longer than its predecessor. The roofline no longer carries a semi-circular shape; it’s more of a flat-top design reminiscent of the original one first introduced in 1938.

2012 Audi A8L W12

         The A8 carries the technology flag for Audi, and along with its understated styling and all aluminum frame, it's a unique choice in the full-size luxury sedan market.Most cars are made to be driven, of course, and there is a select group of vehicles that are made to be driven in—the Rolls-Royce Phantom, the Maybach 62, the Ford Crown Victoria. But beyond that, there exists the infinitesimally small number of cars that have been engineered with both missions in mind, offering dynamic excellence for those twirling the steering wheel and five-star appointments for those occupying the rear seats. The 2011 Audi A8L W-12 is one such vehicle, and it satisfies in almost all aspects.

2012 BMW X6 M

The 2011 BMW X6 M represents an impressive feat of automotive engineering. Like the X6, this is a coupe-style crossover, meant to carry passengers rather than cargo. It weighs nearly 5,300 pounds, yet the X6 M motivates the mass with a 555-horsepower twin-turbo V8, so 60 mph arrives in a mind-blowing 4.3 seconds. That's quicker than every SUV we've ever tested (the new 2011 Porsche Cayenne Turbo will likely be very close) and quicker than quite a few dedicated high-performance cars -- including those from BMW.

2011 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport

It’s not unusual for Bugatti to show up to a major auto show with some rendition of their Veyron supercar, and Frankfurt’s model is a special edition Veyron Grand Sport slathered with red exterior paint. It seems Bugatti brought the Grand Sport along because they’re having a bit of trouble selling the powerful convertible. Both the Veyron Coupe and Veyron Super Sport are sold out, but there are still 108 units Grand Sport available, from a total of 150.

2011 BMW 760li

The BMW 760Li, the largest and most decadent Bavarian machine offered today, just arrived at Road & Track’s doorsteps for a year-long stay. Not that we consider ourselves gluttons, but this car resides at the top end of a very wide vehicle spectrum—even surpassing the sticker of our previous exotic long-term Audi R8 with the BMW’s as-delivered MSRP of $149,025. What’s unique about the 760Li is that despite the caliber of pricey competition it associates with, it’s one vehicle that can easily fly below most people’s “wow” radar. At a quick glance you wouldn’t be able to tell the 760Li apart from its slightly less lavish siblings, the 740Li and 750Li, except for the quad exhaust tips (or the obvious decklid badge) that hint at a need for more breathing capacity.
