It is usually priced at $3,580!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was for thanking clients for their patience. Automakers can always be kind.



The Audi A7 exists! We know thanks to WorldCarFans.com. The car when spotted was not heavily disguised, but photos are not great. The 4-door coupe is similar to the A5 Sportback, but with different B and C pillars. The car will feature a new Turbo V8 or if costumers want, they can buy the car with a V8 TDI producing around 800Nm of torque. The car also seems longer and wider than the A5 and will compete against the Porsche Panamera and the Aston Martin Rapide.



According to WreckedExotics.com, two Lambo Murcielago crashes have happened lately. One happened in Park Lane, London and one in Switzerland. The Switzerland accident occurred late Thursday night. A young and drunk Russian driver was in his Lambo, and crashed his Italian supercar.
