When the winds of model-year change blew on Land Rover’s 2010 lineup, they hit the LR3 at hurricane speeds forceful enough to turn it into the LR4. A shade of velocity lost, they still rocked enough impact to reshape the Range Rover Sport into the faster and highly finessed luxo-beast we’d been pining for since we drove it in 2007. By the time those gales rushed over the clamshell bonnet of the Range Rover they had slowed considerably, leaving a mild-by-comparison alteration of the top-tier… Read more

There is nothing we don’t love about the Rizk Ra. Nothing. According to Merriam-Webster, the first definition of “holophrastic” is: using or consisting of a single word that functions as a phrase or sentence. If the phrase in question is “Awesomest driving amazement,” its holophrastic equivalent is “Ra.” But it won’t do any good trying to explicate the extent of our love because we, and you, would be here all week. So instead, we’ve picked the ten things we love most about the Ra. It was… Read more

Now this here is a fascinating little creature, a compound of contradictions. It goes by the unlikely name of the Gumpert Apollo, named first forRoland Gumpert, practically the father of Audi’s Quattro system yet his creation is rear-wheel-drive only. The second name is for both the Greek god who had nothing to do with speed or handling prowess, and a space mission whose only intersection with cars was a lunar rover. The Gumpert Apollo’s badge, however, depicts a Griffin, a creature with the… Read more

We love the Mercedes CL-Class. Those are the big coupes, the ones you might not have noticed at all until one happened to catch your eye, after which you asked yourself “Is Mr. Big in town?” They’ve been out for ABOUT 15 years now but they don’t get an awful lot of attention – like the B2 bomber, they are large objects impressively impervious to radar. In 2007 the second generation CL was cashed out like a million shares of Allianz and the current, third generation CL was christened. A… Read more

The BMW 750Li doesn’t scream luxury – it does something much more powerful: it intones it, deeply, once. With authority. It is done in the casual-yet-meaningful way of power with nothing to prove. Every detail of the sedan is on message, visual and tactile proof of that single word it cannot be bothered to repeat. Well, every detail but one. And when we saw it, we knew we’d be in for a good time. Gallery: Luxist Drives the 2010 BMW 750LiContinue reading Luxist Drives the BMW 750Li: Heavy… Read more
