Concours d'Elegance of America at St. John's to feature Slingshot dragsters

The 34th-annual Concours d'Elegance of America at St. John's, formerly known as the Meadow Brook Concours d'Elegance, will host a selection of Slingshot rail drag cars this year, in addition to the Duesenbergs, Pierce-Arrows and Cords. The cars get their name from the rearward positioning of the driver seat behind the rear axle.

Mitsubishi ASX Black Special Edition launches

Mitsubishi ASX Black launches - with satin black styling upgrades It’s just over a year since we reviewed the Mitsubishi ASX, Mitsubishi’s new offering in the compact SUV / crossover market. And we thought it a decent effort from Mitsubishi, if a little generic and a little bland. So the news that Mitsubishi has launched a new version of the ASX – the Mitsubishi ASX Black – is welcome, as its upgrades answer many of the criticisms we levelled at the 2WD ASX 3 1.8 Diesel we reviewed last year.

Lamborghini Murcielago LP650-4 Roadster

Lamborghini Murcielago LP650-4 Roadster Expected to sport the same 650bhp engine as the Reventon, this LP650-4 looks like it’s going to be one of the quickest open-topped cars there is, with a 0-60 time just over 3 seconds. Just like the Reventon, the LP650-4 looks likely to come in just one colour choice, in this case a matt grey (Grigio Telesta) with orange accents, and dark painted alloys. With the expected launch of the LP670-4 SV happening at Geneva in a couple of weeks, it is unlikely that Lamborghini will show this car, more likely saving it for later in the year for maximum impact.
