This silver 2004 Rolls-Royce Phantom is being offered for a pittance, with an asking price of $69,950. Featuring a smooth V12, luxury accommodation, suicide doors, and more, it’s a tempting offer.

A dealer added $14,980 in extra packages and fees to a new Land Cruiser. This made the total price exceed $92,000. The items listed don’t appear to be worth anywhere near the prices attatched.

AMG CLE 63 is expected to adopt 577 hp V8 instead of C 63 sedan’s more powerful PHEV inline four. Sales of C 63 have reportedly been much slower since it junked its V8 for four-cylinder power. Porsche also recently replaced a V6 with a V8 in the Cayenne. Though Mercedes-AMG has yet to confirm it, evidence is mounting that the upcoming CLE 63 coupe and convertible will be fitted with an engine that makes almost 100 fewer ponies than the one in the C 63 sedan.

A study finds that many cars reach 60 mph faster when they’re starting from a dead stop than when they’re rolling along at 5 mph. Turbocharged vehicles are up to 2 seconds slower to 60 mph when they’re rolling. As a result, owners may experience slower-than-expected acceleration when they’re pulling away from the lights.

This 1982 Chevrolet Corvette is one of three low-mileage models found hidden in a farm garage. With just 33 miles on the odometer, the Corvette is a true time capsule. Despite some mouse nests, and a few minor pieces of damage, a quick clean is all the Corvette needs to be back in near showroom condition. The thrill of the barn find is almost archeological, and much like Indiana Jones, sometimes that means you have to be satisfied with finding a fascinating ruin.
