There are cars you admire. There are cars you respect. And then there are cars that make you open the listing three times, just to check if it is actually real. This week’s Car of the Week is exactly that kind of car: a 2023 BMW ALPINA B5 GT Touring, finished in Imola Red II, showing just 620 kilometres and offered at €185,000 excl. VAT. Yes, 620 kilometres. No, that is not a typo.

Audi has released new images of the camouflaged A2 e-tron as it begins serious testing ahead of its public reveal in autumn 2026. The car will become Audi’s new all-electric entry-level model family in the compact class and will be built at the brand’s headquarters in Ingolstadt.

From July 2026, buying a new car in Europe will come with another mandatory safety system. This time, it is not just another background assistant quietly waiting to help. It is called Advanced Driver Distraction Warning, or ADDW, and it is designed to monitor whether the driver is actually watching the road. In simple terms: your car will start watching your eyes.

The LEGO Speed Champions BMW M3 E30 is officially here, complete with a unique livery co-created by BMW and LEGO designers. And yes, BMW has built a real M3 E30 showcar wearing the same design. That is the detail that makes this more than just another toy.

Van Mossel Automotive Group is entering Poland. The Dutch automotive retail group has announced the proposed acquisition of Auto Idea, one of Poland’s major Mercedes-Benz dealer groups. If approved, the deal will mark Van Mossel’s first move into the Polish market and expand its international footprint to eight countries.

It is official: the Citroën 2CV is coming back. And honestly, this might be one of the smartest things Citroën could do right now. Not because the world needs another retro badge. Not because every iconic name should be recycled. Not because nostalgia automatically sells cars. But because the original 2CV was never really about nostalgia in the first place. It was about freedom, affordability, simplicity and making mobility feel human.

Manthey and the Griesemann Gruppe completed the full 24-hour endurance race with the #992 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup MR running on synthetic eFuel Race 98, an eMethanol-based fuel made from green hydrogen and captured CO₂. The car finished 56th overall after completing 128 laps of the Nordschleife, according to the final classification.

After months of uncertainty around Porsche’s next-generation electric 718 Boxster and Cayman, a camouflaged prototype has now been spotted in the German countryside. The important detail? No visible exhaust. No engine noise. And underneath the camouflage, clear signs that this is not simply the current 718 with some disguise thrown over it. It looks like the Porsche 718 Boxster EV is still out there.

The Ram 1500 Rumble Bee is back, and the headline version is completely absurd. The new Rumble Bee SRT uses a 6.2-litre supercharged HEMI V8, produces 777 hp and 921 Nm, and is being positioned by Ram as the fastest production truck ever. Ram’s own site introduces the new Rumble Bee as a muscle truck with availability starting late 2026, while the SRT sits at the top with the supercharged 6.2-litre HEMI V8.

Pagani and Monaco always felt like they belonged together. One is a tiny universe of extreme craftsmanship, impossible materials and obsessive detail. The other is a tiny universe of wealth, collectors, supercars and automotive theatre. So the opening of Pagani de Monaco, the first official Pagani showroom and after-sales service centre in the Principality, feels less like an expansion and more like something that was always supposed to happen.

After showing its electric interpretation of classic Rolls-Royce and Bentley models, the British remastering specialist has now unveiled the Great Eight Series: a combustion-powered, hand-built reinterpretation of the Rolls-Royce Corniche and related Crewe-built icons, centred around the legendary 6.75-litre L-Series V8. The series is limited to 60 one-of-one commissions, each hand-built in Surrey through a process of around 5,000 hours.

Some cars do not need a full press campaign to stop the internet. The Carbonerre GT1 Manta is one of them. It is not an official Porsche model. It is not a factory 911 GT1 revival. It is not some carefully polished OEM heritage project. Instead, it is a radical Porsche 911-based transformation by Carbonerre Motors, built as a futuristic tribute to one of the most mythical Porsche race cars ever: the 911 GT1.
