2007 Acura MDX
|
|
DRIVEN! The first-generation MDX was carefully tailored for a specific customer that Acura called "Stylish Mom," a familiar archetype you might know better as "Soccer Mom." The company's goal for MDX version 2.0 is to keep her in the fold while also convincing... more |

2007 Bentley Arnage T
|
|
For discerning customers who take comfort in the classics, the Arnage is still ensconced atop the Bentley lineup, costing almost half again as much as the arriviste, $176,285 Continental Flying Spur. Whereas the newer sedan's unusual (and Volkswagen developed)... more |

2007 Land Rover LR2
|
|
The Land Rover LR2 will step in early next year for the late, unlamented Freelander. The LR2 is powered by Volvo's new 3.2-liter in-line six, which will make 230 hp and 234 lb-ft of torque. The transversely mounted engine is hitched to a six-speed manu-matic.... more |

2007 Mini Cooper and Cooper S
|
|
BMW's Mini brand has sold more than 800,000 of its cheeky little Coopers, so clearly auto journalists are not its only fans. And although it is as adorable today as it was when it launched in 2002, a new one is on its way for next year. Not just a refresh, thi... more |

2007 Porsche 911 Targa
|
|
The 911 rollout continues not just with the higher-performance variants (Turbo, GT3) but with the new Targa as well. As 911 fans know, the Targa concept has changed somewhat since the model first appeared in 1966. Where the early cars had a removable roof sect... more |

2008 Audi Q7 V-12 TDI
|
|
Six liters, 500 horsepower, and 737 lb-ft of torque. Those are absurd numbers, and they're destined to forever be associated with an absurd--and yet strangely awesome--piece of machinery: the Audi Q7 V-12 TDI. (Say that three times fast.) There's no word on rel... more |

2007 BMW M6 Convertible
|
|
BMW's M6 convertible trades the coupe's sweet carbon-fiber roof for a power-folding soft top, but even that lid is somewhat unconventional. As with the standard 6-series convertible, the M6's folding top features a flared design and a vertical rear window that... more |

2007 BMW 3-series Coupe
|
|
Known internally as the E92, the two-door version of BMW's bread-and-butter car tempers some of the four-door's polarizing lines--and introduces a few new technical features to go along with the new sheetmetal. Molded plastic front fenders (like those used on... more |

2007 Honda CR-V
|
|
The third generation of Honda's first SUV (and a crossover at that) turns on the charm with lots of luxe appointments (CD/MP3 player, ABS, side air bags, power everything) and highly styled new sheetmetal in order to attract young buyers and empty nesters. You... more |

2008 Audi R8
|
|
Audi's mid-engine sports car was supposed to make its debut at this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans, but at the last minute the unveiling was pushed off until this fall's Paris auto show. It's been worth the wait. The mid-engine, all-wheel-drive two-seater, preview... more |
