Looking curiously similar to the bat-mobile, Lamborghini will unveil it’s newest creation next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Pumping a scary 650 horsepower out of it’s Mid-Mounted V12 engine and reaching speeds of over 200 MPH, and acceleration of 0-60 in under 3.4 seconds (in a convertible mind you!), this beast is menacing.

Never mind that this car is topless. This isn’t your typical weekend convertible. The car isn’t designed to help you soak up the sun. This car is designed to help you howl at the moon.

While lesser vehicles are sleeping, and the streets are thirsty. While you push this animal to road-blurring speeds, laughing maniacally like a mad man (frothing at the mouth, screaming, dick hanging out, etc).

While your engine roars that indistinguishable Lamborghini war chant that sounds awfully like a large, rather smug looking Italian bull laughing in the face of the current economic crisis.

Go ahead, push that pedal a little harder. You earned it. [Hat tip - Source]

Some cars may try their damndest to imitate, but all fall far short of the Alpha Romeo 8C Competizione. In fact, the only thing that could possibly touch the powerful grace of the 8C must come directly from Alpha Romeo itself. Rumors and snippets of information have been flying on an upcoming 8C GTA to be released next March in Geneva. The GTA will incorporate a variety of carbon fiber upgrades to cut 300 pounds off the standard 8C’s weight. When combined with a new ECU and some other under-the-hood tinkering, the GTA is expected to pump well over 500 horses out of its 4.7-liter V8. Performance should be pushed close to the defining sub-4, 200 range. Car aficionados are so enthused about this upcoming release that they’re creating wild speculations as to its looks. So take a deep sigh of relief because that’s what that white-lipped monstrosity in the picture is all about (courtesy of the UK’s Auto Express). Thankfully, the only actual white mouths are ours as we wait for glimpse of the real deal. In the meantime, enjoy some sexy shots of the 8C after the break. [via AutoBlog]-Via

The 289-ft. Maltese Falcon, the world’s largest, best designed, and most expensive sailing superyacht, has reportedly been sold for $100 million just a week after we reported the price had been slashed by $40 million. The incredible craft, which had at one point been listed as high as $165 million, was built by Perini Navi for venture capitalist Tom Perkins. The London Times reports Perkins has now found a buyer. “It has taken a while,” he conceded to the paper, noting his profit margin had shrunk somewhat. “It is not the best time in the world to sell it. I can’t tell you anything at all about the buyer. There is confidentiality.” With its three 20-story carbon fiber masts fully rigged the yacht can cross the Atlantic in 10 days. -Hat Tip

If you’re in the market for a multi-million dollar yacht (and honestly who isnt?) and looking to stand out a little more than typical yachtsman, we’ve found your yacht. You can thank us later.

The Olucus is a very futuristic looking yacht from Schöpfer Yachts. Its 250-foot, can accommodate 12 guests and can travel at speeds up to 25 knots. It got a double-height dining room, an elevator and a special area for ‘the owner’ + a lot more. – Baekdal

Amazing. And if that didn’t do it for your, go to our friends at Baekdal to catch a glipse of this 300 foot behemoth with an on deck pool, as if the ocean wasn’t enough water for you.

Like a beautiful woman without an attitude, a luxury car that isn’t too gaudy is difficult to find. It’s for this reason we love the new Mercedes Benz E-Class.

We’ve always though the E-Class to be an undervalued brand.Never too flashy on the outside but wrapped in luxury on the inside. However with the new introduction on the 9th generation E-Class, the brand has acquired some much deserved upgrades and a revamped moniker.

Coming in several different packages and interior accommodations, we have personally fallen in love with the Coupe.
