Volkswagen has released a new advertisement touting the fully redesigned 2011 Jetta. Only problem, it depicts the car shedding its “drawing board” all over the untouched countryside. In what looks to be a hundred reams of printer paper flying in its wake, the new Jetta may actually make the “The Crying Indian” cry again. See the whole story and the video over at RidePros.

If you are a current Bugatti Veyron owner, or a serious buyer waiting in the wings, you were probably there. But if you’re a low-life peon, or worse, a writer for a weak weekly automotive blog, you’ll have to settle for the pictures. What are we talking about? The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport Customer Day at the Paul Ricard circuit in Southern France.

Attendees had a chance to top the 200 mph mark in a new Super Sport helmed by Bugatti test pilot Pierre-Henri Raphanel, or to enjoy a top-down trip through the Mediterranean sunshine in the world’s fastest tanning machine, the Veyron Grand Sport. Lucky fuckers.

If 4 wheels are good, 6 must be better. Whether you subscribe to that kind of thinking or not, today’s featured manufacturer certainly does. Meet the 6-wheeled masterminds at Covini Engineering.

Started in 1978 by engineer-extraordinaire, Ferruccio Covini, Covini Engineering has been churning out an array of automobiles that’s as exotic as the machines are themselves.

Check out Covini’s site and relish in the 6-wheel GT madness/genius that is Ferruccio Covini.

Flexing some modern American muscle overseas, the long-awaited Chevy Camaro Z28 was spied tearing up the Nürburgring in Germany. Even better, the Camaro crazies over at Camaro5 caught the whole thing on tape.

Camouflaged in what looks to be a Cheap Trick paint scheme, it’s hard to tell if it looks much different than the standard Chevy Camaro. But, listen closely and you’ll hear 550 patriotic ponies belting out some new world thunder at full gallop. Wunderbar!

Super-ultra-luxury car maker, Lamborghini, has teamed up with super-ultra-luxury watch maker, Blancpain, to create the Swiss watch of automobiles, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Blancpain Edition. Unveiled just yesterday following the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo race series finale at the Vallelunga circuit in Rome, the new car is expected to run like a watch.

The Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo race series bills itself as the world’s premier league of gentlemen’s racing. Which means the new Blancpain Edition Gallardo is merely the newest toy for super-ultra-luxury rich guys to go racing against in against each other.

On to the particulars: At 2954 lbs, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Blancpain Edition is the lightest road-going model in the Lambo range. The 570 horsepower puts this beast at a minute-hand above 5 lbs/horsepower with a 0-60 of 3.4 seconds. That is so fast, that you’d need a $600,000 watch to actually time it.

As the highly-anticipated Aston Martin One-77 inches closer to launch (literally), company execs continue to put out some teaser information. Today, they announced that the new One-77 possesses a bat-shit crazy 750 hp and 553.2 ft-lb of torque generating powerplant beneath its sculpted aluminum and carbon fiber hull.

That makes this bugger the most powerful regular production naturally aspirated engine on the planet. Now, that may sound like a lot of qualifying, but damn it, once you hear this thing roar, you’ll want one, too.
