Hennessey previews Jeep Cherokee Twin Turbo with 800hp "Who Needs Reindeer When You Have an 800 HP Twin Turbo Sleigh?" Yes, they can all die of pollution as long as I gots my V8 in my 10ton SUV to drive my big-boned children to school. Thank you Hennessey, our lives are complete now. I'm looking forward to seeing how they can possibly meet new cO2 regulations.

1952 Ferrari 212 Ghia Cabriolet found at estate sale [video] Congrats. "The car was 90-95% there... except the engine was missing", gotta love his math.

Citroen DS1 coming in 2013 - report This is good (the GTi version that is). Thankfully management at Peugeot/Citroen still remember they were once the crown of affordable performance motoring. I'm hoping this will spawn a Peugeot 107 GTi and more accessible micro-hatches like a Suzuki Alto Works.

Subaru BRZ revealed in full production form Take a look at these lineups: http://www.toyota.com/modelselector/ http://www.subaru.com/vehicles/index.html This car is Subaru design, not Toyota.

Toyota GT 86 officially revealed It is pretty, but to me it just reflects how long Toyota have been out of the sportscar/fun market. The brand has no identity, no design language, it's just 'some car' or worse yet, a bad impersonation of a Subaru BRZ which will be more powerful and probably cheaper. Where the BRZ is instantly recognizable as a Subaru, this one could only be mistaken for a Subaru, at best.

Mazda i-ELOOP regenerative braking system announced Also there are simpler solutions to improving fuel consumption by 10% - like not going for ultra-low ultra-wide tires, lowering the car, developing lighter seats, etc. These would probably be cheaper than an i-(anything) too.

Next Subaru WRX STI will feature new 300+ HP 2.0 liter turbo I don't think they've made a good looking STi since the 1st generation in 1992. To me it always felt like a shouty OTT car with matching trinkets to reaffirm itself of its own performance prowess. This is a more complete looking car and I think by far the best looking STi now that they don't have to base it on a mainstream econobox.

2012 Audi A1 Sportback with S line revealed [video] The thing about this car is that it's so refined that you would buy it despite (or because) of its odd looks. At the moment there just isn't a worthy competitor, as much as I like the Alfa Mito, the Audi is everything you want in a compact premium package (BMW/Mercedes plan on joining the niche anytime soon?). It's like having one rare item of jewelry instead of buying the entire Rolex catalog. Refined luxury over ostentatious bling bling.

2012/2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe (facelift) first official images Why would you want a 2.0L turbo with 210Bhp if the 1.6L turbo produces 200Bhp? If anything, the entry level Genesis should get the 1.6L turbo and dump the 2.0 altogether.

Trailer for new Grand Theft Auto [video] Actually I would like to see them go back further on the timeline - 1950s or 60s.
