Gumpert Rises From its Ashes and Appears at the Geneva Auto Show

What a better way to tell the automotive world that you're back and alive than making an appearance at one of the most prestigious motor shows of the year.After declaring insolvency last year, Germansupercar maker Gumpert was given stay of execution, thanks to a new and mysterious investor and a fresh batch of orders for its Apollo model, which went on display unchanged at this week's Geneva Motor Show.
The Apollo series uses an Audi-sourced 4.2-liter with twin-turbochargers. According to the automaker's web site, the base version delivers 650PS (641HP) and 850Nm of peak torque for a 0-100km/h (62mph) sprint time of 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 360km/h (224mph).
Gumpert has also promised to introduce a new model series based on the Tornante Concept from last year's Geneva Motor Show before the end of this year.

Facelifted 2014 Buick Regal Appears in LaCrosse Pictures and Video

To demonstrate the updated 2014 LaCrosse sedan's new safety features such as the Side Blind Zone Alert and Forward Collision Alert, Buick's creative department had to use a second vehicle, which as you would imagine, is another model from the brand's range.
Instead of placing another LaCrosse, though, Buick used a digital version of the 2014 Regal, as pointed out by Carscoops reader Chien-Jay.
And how can we be sure that the rear end of the Regal in the video and pictures seen here is indeed the facelifted model that will join the 2014 LaCrosse at Buick's New York Auto Show stand this week? Well, because it has the same redesigned tail lamps and chrome trim at the back as the 2014 Opel and Vauxhall Insignia prototypes spied in Europe.
Other changes we expect to see on the new model year Regal, and consequently, on its European Insignia sibling, are mild styling tweaks up front and the interior.
Hat-tip to Chien-Jay!
