Considering that, the seventh generation of the Corvette was presented in the middle of January at the Detroit motor show, but it won't hit dealer lots across the country until late August at the best, General Motors has plenty of time for a solid marketing campaign.

And by that we really mean it has a lot of time for…unnecessary teasing, much like this new video released by the Detroit carmaker on Friday and which allows us to hear and see the 2014 Corvette Stingray on the track, but only for a few seconds…

Leaked Images Show the Jason Castriota-Designed 2013 Saab 9-3 Series that Never Was

Saab's sad story has been told so many times over the past couple of years that you would think there was nothing more to tell, but a new set of allegedly official images depicting what could have been the vehicle to save the Swedish brand, give it a fresh twist.

These low quality screenshots of a computer rendering of the next 9-3 series were obtained by Sweden's Auto Motor und Sport magazine, purportedly via a former Saab employee.

The car's styling is said to have been completed under the direction of American-born automotive designer Jason Castriota, who at the time, led Saab's design team. The renderings show the five-door hatchback in profile and from the rear as well as the convertible variant.

New Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG “Edition 507” Gets a 50HP Upgrade [w/Video]

In case you haven’t noticed, AMG has adopted forced induction for every new model it introduces, from the A- to the S-Class and practically anything in between, all in the name of improving fuel efficiency and CO2 emissions without missing out on performance.

There are two Mercedes-Benz models, though, that still hang on to the “old” naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8, code-named M 156: the SLS AMG and the C 63 AMG.
