Back in October, the Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible was only rumoured, but it has now been spied and photos were provided by PistonHeads.com. The car was spotted with a re-worked front bumper and bonnet. The car could very well feature the same W12 Flex-Fuel engine producing 621 horsepower and 800Nm of torque. Rumours also said that it would be revealed at the 2010 Geneva Auto Show and we are pretty keen on the idea!

Yes BOSS!



Yes BOSS! The BOSS racer is back with a version of the new 2011 5.0 Mustang GT! Anyway, it's called the 2011 Ford Mustang BOSS 302R and it is in honor of the 40th anniversary of Parnelli Jones’ 1970 Trans-Am championship in a Mustang BOSS 302 prepared by Bud Moore Engineering.

We have the first photos of it. The car features a new mahogany metallic paint job and TechArt's own 21 inch Formula Wheels, tyres. Tech 9 Motorsport, UK TechArt's importer said the following:

"Interestingly, we specced the car in mahogany metallic, which looks super cool in the flesh, looks black from a distance, then when you get closer, you realise it is brown. This colour really works on a Panamera."

Remember a while ago when the famous racing driver left Ferrari? Yes right? Well, now he is back in competition with his former boss, Ross Brawn and the whole Mercedes-Benz team.

Anyway, we wish good luck for the 'Stig' on Top Gear and all the best with his new teammates at Mercedes.
