Lexus to make its official Goodwood Festival of Speed debut in 2013

Lexus is to officially be a part of the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed and will show the 2013 Lexus LS, new GS and the LFA supercar. Lexus is working hard at the moment to make their cars more dynamic and more appealing to drivers – not just those looking for reliable, Japanese luxury, so what better way to get in front of those who cherish the ‘Drive’ than at Goodwood? So Lexus is tipping up at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed in July to be an official part of the best petrolhead festival – in the world – and take the opportunity to show their latest models, and a bit of Lexus supercar goodness too.

This is the 2013 Mazda6 – a bit at a time

The first photos of the 2013 Mazda6 have been released showing the Takeri concept inspired Mazda6 before its Moscow Motor Show debut. The 2013 Mazda 6 has been teased by Mazda in a series of short videos (although they were all so pointless we only ran the first one) and now Mazda has released the first official photos of the new Mazda6 ahead of its debut next month at the Moscow Motor Show. But for whatever reason, Mazda seems intent on still hiding the new Mazda6 from proper scrutiny ahead of its Moscow debut; not a single photo of the whole car, just four bits.
